 Opal or Teeny-tiny as she is  more commonly known, came to us from Brandi Womack of StarValley Aussies. I knew both of her parents and besides being a beauty to look at she has the sweetest temperament, which she got from both of her parents. Teeny-tiny  was dubbed thusly because I honestly wasn't certain she was ever going to reach 18".  Her full cousin Quinn who is only 2 weeks older, was twice her size (as you can see by the photo).  Though she is a very respectable 19 inches now, the name has stuck and she will always be our Teeny-tiny. 
Opal has a new co-owner now, a wonderful young lady from up the street who has taken the juniors ring by storm and has held her own in the breed ring too. On August 15th Demi Painter took Opal in the ring and took WB over some very nice girls, including my girl Quinn! Opal has continued her winning streak and now has 8 point stotal, including a 3 point major.  I look forward to watching this great team grow.
