“Oliver”
Oliver, there are just so many memories that we have shared over the last nine years. What can we say in a paragraph that would encompass the good times that we have shared with you?  You are the dog that we hoped to have one day and the dog that epitomized all we are striving to do. You are a one in a million dog and every bit the Papillon. Your incredible showmanship, type, and fabulous movement are still unequaled.
You accomplished Multiple Best In Show Wins, a myriad of Best In Specialty Wins, and too many group ones and placements to mention. Just when we thought there was nothing left for you to achieve, you attained your Grand Championship, as a Veteran, undefeated winning five 5-point majors in 5 Shows. Within two months, you had won two Best In Specialty Shows, multiple group placements, a group one and ranking in the top twenty. You are the Only Papillon to win the Group at the Eukanuba Invitational Classic, and one of the only pair of Best In Show littermates in the history of the Papillon Breed. Last but not least, you are a Sire of Distinction. Your children have done so well in the show ring, including Best of Winners at the 2010 National, many group placers, and too many WD or WB at Specialties to count! You are, and always will be, our dog of a lifetime!!!
Thanks for the Memories, Â Oliver!
These are the BEST OF TIMES and THE BEST OF TIMES!
Our most sincere gratitude for sharing your life and your career with us,
Your Breeders, Owners and Family,
Michael, Donna and Gia

***And “Gotti” said thank you to the Judge***
We are so proud of the response that our Winners/Best of Winners dog, InVolo Smooth Criminal, “Gotti” received. We have never had so many people congratulate us. The compliments were endless and very thrilling. Thank you all for your kind words, you will never know how much they meant to us. This post would not be complete without a big thank you to Tracy Burdick, Denzel Papillons, for sharing her lovely bitch “Vanna” with us. Without her help, this litter would not have been possible. As always, our thanks to his fabulous handler, Gia Garofalo. Gia, you never break a sweat!
Gia and Juliano are sitting quietly on a bright Spring day! What a pretty picture! They make such a handsome pair, but don’t be fooled they are also contenders in any ring they enter…
Gia and Juliano winning the Breed from the Classes.
