CH Winterspell Picollo
"Spud" (CH Winterspell Picollo) was our first ever registered Pomeranian! Although only bought by us as a pet, after curiously going to watch Spud's littermates compete at a show we thought we'd give it a go ourselves :-) Spud had his limits but he was good enough to win a number of Class in Show awards, a Best Exhibit in Group and a Runner Up in Group for us so he really was a great introduction to the show ring and he gave us the bug to go on to bigger things! As we had new and upcoming show dogs arrive Spud was retired from the show ring and neutered. Spud's life revolved around chasing his toys and he was "the man" of the Pomquest Pack through until he sadly was given his wings. We are forever grateful for him coming in to our lives, without him Pomquest would never have come to be...

We hope you enjoy these photos of Spud growing from a gangly puppy to the very special man in our lives...
