About Me
Greetings! Let me introduce myself, my name is
Laurie Thompson. I live in a small town in
Northwest Iowa. I have 5 wonderful children that
range in age from 10 to 24. I work full time as a lab
technician in a small rural hospital. After 23 years
I still enjoy what I do, not many are fortunate
enough to say that.
I started in Chihuahuas as a small hobby breeder,
then one night while I was watching a dog show on
TV with my daughter, she decided she would like to
try Junior showmanship. None of the Chihuahuas
we had were show material so I started my search
for one with some show experience and we went to
watch a few local shows. My good friend Gail sold
me my first show bitch already pointed.
Unfortunately my daughter didn't find showing as
much fun as I did. I have made some wonderful
friends along the way and I look forward to making
many more. Thank you Gail for selling Zoey to me
and for being a great friend. I also need to thank my
mentor and very special friend Max Hurd for all
the advice and encouragement, also for letting me
use your wonderful dogs to help me build a strong
foundation to my breeding program.
