  1. Flutter & Gimme — the other new puppies

    December 9, 2013 by myeye

    This weekend I will be flying to Tennessee for the Lowri/Dickens puppy party.  I will be bringing home another freckle-faced darling.  She will be Bluefox Elyan Mariposa and we will call her “Flutter”.  She has freckles just like Salsa.  I sincerely hope they become BFF.

    Since I have to travel so far anyway, I am going to scoop up the adorable red puppy.  Her name will be Bluefox Elyan Mine Not Yours — we’ll call her Gimme.  I hope she has the same herding drive and physical beauty as my friend Ellen Gerwin’s Pem girl “Gimme”.   Gimme was the first Dual Champion Pem.  It’s definitely a name to live up to.  This baby reminds me of Naughty Nola.

  2. A Glimpse of the Lowri/Dickens Baybeez

    day 1 - Lowri babies 10-18-13

    There are three boys and three girls.  Someone asked from whence came the red.  Both Chase and Dickens have produced reds, Lowri’s mom Scout is red.  So, Lowri inherited the red gene from her parents,  and combined it with Dickens’ red marker to produce this little red girl.

    The puppies are in Tennessee with Susan Long, and I doubt there will be any available.  We still have to see if any of them are fluffies.


  3. Puppies, We Have Puppies

    October 19, 2013 by myeye

    Our Lowri (HIT GCh Mockingbird Elyan Magic Moment HSAd HSBd) last night presented us with six puppies — 3 brindle boys, 2 brindle girls and 1 red girl.  Birth weights ranged from 8.5 to 11.9.   She popped them out in less than two hours.  They are healthy, strong little baybeez.  Lowri was bred to Dickens (BIS BISS GCh Twinroc Santa Paws).  We are excited to watch these babies grow.  Lowri is being a great first-time mom.  Wahoo!


  4. Those Are Our Girls

    October 16, 2013 by myeye

    The latest issue of Canine Chronicles is out.  For the second time, Chase has two daughters in the top 20 Cardigans.  A year ago, it was Nikki (GCh Wellshire Absolut Magic) bred by Eric and Paula Weller, and owned by Paula and Carolyn Tompkins.  Her dam is Wellshire Lady Luck ROMb.  And our Lowri.  This time, both girls are from the wonderful “Ocho” litter.  Their dam is that lovely red Group Winner, BOS – Westminster “Scout” (GCh Cardiridge Jean Louise Finch ROMb HT RN CA).  The “Ocho” was bred by Janet Suber.  By virtue of her wonderful Best of Breed win at the Northwest Cardigan Fancier’s Specialty on September 27th, “Ginger” (Ch Mockingbird-Wyncrest’s I Believe in Magic NAP NJP NFP CA) is #18.  Ginger is owned by Kathy Metcalfe.  “Lowri” (HIT GCh Mockingbird Elyan Magic Moment HSAd HSBd) is at #11.  Susan Long, Cheryl Kienast and I own Lowri — or, perhaps, she owns us.  Lowri’s first litter is due this weekend, so Ginger must carry the family banner for a while.

    You go, girls!  I am so proud of you and your owners/handlers/supporters.

    Chase will turn six in October.  I am hopeful that he will have the opportunity to continue enjoying his children and grandchildren, and even great grandchildren.  Officially, Chase is GCh/Can Ch C-Myste Baledwr Pursuit of Happiness CD RN HSAds HIAs HXAs NAP NJP VCX ROMs TT
