Happy New Year 2022!

Wishing all our followers a Happy New Year.

Our latest news!

Yennefer's puppies are growing very well, and now eating weaning meat.  This always makes a big difference as they suddenly get stronger.  Of course they will have mum up to 6 weeks but the more we can feed them the more they will grow.  They are now having their first worming with Panacur. Puppies go through stages and they do not do an awful lot until they get to 6 weeks of age.  They do not change until they get to 5 weeks when suddenly they turn into adorable puppies.   But its a full time job looking after puppies with out the adult dogs also.  My day starts around 6am every day and  I am on the go until late into the night.  Its quite exhausting.  This is why I ask anyone who wishes to contact me do not text me until 10.30 am when Im literally in the house again, as I have to exercise all our dogs.  To have top quality dogs is not just good diet, its exercise and also keeping their mental health in tip top condition too.  This is done by exercise and playing with the dogs.   I also groom our dogs weekly and many have a bath.  Yesterday it took one hour just to do nails.  I need a session cleaning teeth this week also.  When you own dogs like we do, their is never ever a day off, it is 24/7 for 365 days a year.  To sit down on the sofa is a luxury. 

We have several puppies reserved now but we still have pups available. In my head I had 1 orange left, but I realised today I have 2.  The Bracco is a wonderful breed of dog to own, or shall I say have a partnership with. The Bracco is a real gent and a friend.

Please note that although I take photos and videos of the puppies I can not keep taking photos as looking after dogs means constantly cleaning up, feeding, exercise, training, and now days paper work.   I try to send photos once a week and videos. Anyone that has a litter of puppies knows how exhausting it is. Let alone to have a large litter. With large litters the cleaning is never ending.  Yes I even have to wash puppies.  That in itself can take an hour to clean their skin.  If we don't keep puppies clean then they could get bacterial infections.  

Pepper is in season, this is Joshua's girl.  He is mating her to Indie, we now have people moving from Sassy's list to Peppers.  I will be in contact with the people on Sassy's list Monday.  I have text three people and Ive not heard back from one. So waiting until tomorrow.  

Our next litter will be a Pug hopefully as Sabrina is due in season soon.  As I don't count Peppers litter as it is not our bitch. 

I have the Kennel club coming to see me in a few weeks time which is standard procedure when your an assured breeder.  I had to send spread sheets and all sorts for them to check through.  I shall look forward to that.   

Also got visits at 5 weeks for Bracco owners, plus 6 weeks some show folk are coming over to see the puppies.  

We now have health tests booked for some of our younger generation to get the hips and elbows done, so we can make plans then in 2023. 

We hope to do a few UK shows in 2022 and the odd one in Europe.   We have to try and get Indies 4th CACIB which would make him an international champion.  Geralt will be back at the shows for 2022, as well as Ripley, Roux, and Indie.  

I have a show Friday at Boston champ show. I may not get to this, but time will tell.  I have arranged already for people to be here for the pups. I have to be so organised lol. 

Anyway happy new year and I hope you all have good health and to my show friends lots of show wins for you.  See you all soon
