AHello ,everybody!
Me, Irina, is here , with dogs and puppies , Tatiana and Jim is away for dog show weekend .
I want to share with you what happened during those weeks .In short -dog show season is great ,
our black puppies Nita and Misty ( Shazzam of Oz Not to be Misunderstood and Shazzam of Oz Seven Notes in Black ) started their show adventures , competing in Puppy Class. They still have long way to go and a lot to learn , however , they seems to start enjoying the whole game, and this what is important. Dog shows isn't only ribbons, prizes and titles. It is what we do with our dogs - together , as a teammates , and their joy working with their humans and our fun is what matters.
And ,speaking of those titles and ribbons :-) -they were first and second in their puppy class and even won Reserve of Winner title.
Shazzam of Oz Awesome News (Awwa) won the breed last weekend and she is half-way through to her Championship.
And our beautiful Lusha (Shazzam of Oz Tactical Solution) won her last major , and she is now an American AKC Champion ! She will now compete in Special class of Champions for her GrandChampion title , together with our Sammie.
Lusha also started trialling in Agility.
We have some nice pictures from those events and waiting for official show pictures to come, will post it then.
Awwa and Lusha both are daughters of Bea . So I guess, next is updates on Bea's current litter and Tutta's babies .
Babies are 5 weeks old now. They are doing fantastic , and by now walking ,playing , interacting, voicing their opinion and are absolute delight to watch ,cuddle,and spend time with. I wish it would be 16 hours in a day so I can spend extra couple hours with those little ones .
Here is some pictures from today .
I thought it is funny how those Bea's boys lined up while playing.
Mr.Peter with his favorite toy .
Peter in front , Flopsy and Mopsy .
Mopsy was in philosophical mood. He is biggest boy in this litter now.
Flopsy . A lot of salt/pepper color pushed up already. And with favorite toy -below.
Mopsy and Flopsy are having some brother-to-brother conversation. I think it has something to do with that yellow little ball.:-)
Cotton-tail and Phina.
Phina was not sure is she wants to play or practice hand-stand.
Cotton-tail was very,very busy , trying to collect all toys together.
Then we include some training into the game. For short time puppy wear collars and cloth . This teach them to accept any human manipulation with them without much fuzz and , obviously , is a starting step toward collar and harness for walking.
And they looked just adorable !

Tutta's babies were in playground #2. We usually set few different playgrounds, and puppies spend few play sessions in one ,with adding new toys and changing configuration every time, then we move them to another one.Tutta's pack had fun with tunnel set up today .
When we first introduced the tunnel , puppies decided it is great place to curl and sleep there. Now they are really having fun just running through it.
