Pups


This cute guy is Stryker, from Argus & Tess's litter. He's what I call a multi-patch and is really a cutie. He's got a home to go to as soon as he is old enough. Tess's pups all hear and are healthy and confident. Wish I lived close enough to visit them - I need a puppy fix!


Cheryl is quite sure that Ella is pregnant, so at least I will have grand dogs to visit in Iowa. Ella is a grand kid of both Watson & Coral, so is "family". Argus did so well with Coral's daughter Nikon who produced Penny), and we hope he does equally well with Coral's grand daughter.

We also got both chilled semen collections taken care of last week. (It WAS a busy week!) Because the bitch has missed in the past, they did lots of progesterone testing as well as LH testing, and a surgical insemination as well as a trans cervical. Hopefully this time is the charm!

Pauli, Krash, and sister Hottie were two years old yesterday. They are from Argus's second litter. Now we can get their CHIC numbers. Ben & Nati from the first litter both have theirs. Now we need to talk to Tom about getting Sam & Rita done. Sam may never be bred, but Rita certainly will be, and she needs to have her health testing first.
