Zotzot and Piksu are expecting...

... I hope. At least they have met each other under very promising circumstances. Little Pyr Shep puppies are waited to be born in January. Here are some pictures of the happy parents, first Zotzot and then her fiancee Piksu:

Five weeks

The little JRT rascals are getting more and more active. Today it was time to take the first "official" stand pictures. One of the boys is still available to a good and active home.

Little bandits are sneaking around

At first congratulations to Nora and Titi-Uu (EN Incarvillée): Seinäjoki international show BOS & CACIB!

And then to the puppy news. The little bandits have started to sneak around. They are playing a bit, eating a bit and having long naps in between.

Satisfied little guys, don't you think?



In memoriam Jojo, Drole d'Oiseau Gout du Jour 1.9.1995 - 13.10.2010

Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there:
I did not die.

Lovely Nuna and obedient Sylvi

I had a chance to meet Nuna (EN Lucina), the daughter of Pii (EN Elecktra) and Topi (Tsarodej Jack O'Boy) during the weekend. She has become a lovely little JRT girl. Thank you Marianna & Make for a wonderful dinner!

Sylvi (EN Eirene) took part to an obedience competition with a great result: 153 points in open class and second prize. Well done Tarja, congratulations!

In Pyr Shep scene TiTi-uu (EN Incarvillée) was shown in Hämeenlinna show where Saija Juutilainen placed her BOS. Congratulations Nora!

Kasper and Jesper and Joonatan

Remember the three happy bandits from the Cardamom town in the wonderful children's book? Well, they are here! Kasper, Jesper and Joonatan (that would be Casper, Jasper and Jonathan in English) were born on the first day of October just before midnight.

Three happy bandits.

The new fiancee of Zotzot

There is a change in Zotzot's mating plan. Zotzot, who is about to start her season any day now, will be mated to the handsome Piksu, FIN CH EE CH NO CH EEW-08 Drole d'Oiseau Mon Fine Mouche. Piksu has a fine character and also fine health results: hips A/A, elbows and knees 0/0, eyes ok. Zotzot is in the same league, hips B/A, elbows and knees 0/0, eyes ok (August 2010).

Hopefully there will be small Pyr Shep pups running around at the time of Xmas!

The brother of TiTi-uu, Minor (EN Indigo Bleu) was shown in Karkkila show judged by Soile Bister. He was BOS and got his second CAC. Way to go, congratulations Sinikka and Juha!

The becoming mom is doing some workout

Romy (EN Harmonia) is about to deliver her puppies soon. In this picture she is doing some workout.

New blog and some puppy news

This is a brand new thing to me, so I need to practice a bit. Ok, let's start from the latest news. Romy, the becoming JRT mom has "landed" to Luumäki. Her shape reminds very much a pear and there is definately puppies on their way to be born in the end of September. This picture was taken when she still had her normal sized waist line.

There are some Pyr Shep puppy plans as well. Zotzot still hasn't started her season, but when she does, she will meet her handsome fiancee Wolfi (Amadeus des P'Tites Chenoilles). Her daughter TiTi-uu (FI CH EEW-10 Entre Nous Incarvillée) is going to be mated in the beginning of next year to a marvellous Belgian male Khaos du Val du Vent Doré. Below you can see a picture of TiTi-uu with her brand new champion rosette and one of handsome Khaos.
