18-08-2011 - Time flies indeed ... today our A-Litter is already turning 8! Happy Birthday, Sina, Tuuli und Maawio (and sadly Cooper at the other side of the rainbow)! Wasn't it just yesterday that they were tiny rascals ... ;o)

17-08-2011 - Happy Birthday, Zina! She is turning 9 today - unbelievable but true (even though more often than not you'd think she is barely 9 MONTHS ... *ggg*)

16-06-2011 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY Chaitali-litter - 2 years already ... time flies! All the best from us, we hope you'll stay healthy and make your humans happy for a long time to come!

06-03-2011 - KITO has found a new home and is now a Swabian. A big THANK YOU to the Sauter family for taking him in and taking such good care of him. His daily job is now to watch over a dental laboratory and we hear he is quite good at it ;o)

::: update February 2011

Unfortunately, we have to find a new home for our Kito from the C-litter. Kito is now 20 months old, neutered, a boy on the smaller side. He had a good basic training and loves to work. Inside the house he is pleasantly quiet, outside of course very lively. Kito has a good nose and proved to be rather talented in his first attempts at mantrailing. He also enjoys agility and generally any kind of 'work'.

We are looking for aktive people who would like to challenge and encourage him further. Please ring us up if you would like to take on that 'mission' (++49 34296 74356). We are looking forward to your call.

::: update November 2010

16-11-2010 - And another Happy Birthday ... Tali is turning 11 today! We are very happy that our old lady is still quite fit and perky and hope for a lot more time together!

06.11.2010 - The pages of Moyo and Mashama got a little 'facelift' ;) and we also added the show results from 2010.

::: update Oktober 2010

09.10.2010 - Tali has now finished the Veteran Champion Club ELSA at the age of almost 11. The first CAC she already got 2 years ago in Wettringen at almost 9 and this summer, a little older and a lot whiter, CACs in Pritzhagen and Geithain followed.

::: update August 2010

28./29.08.2010 - Moyo got an EXC 3 at the SRA in Geithain. From the report of Mrs. Poduschka-Aigner (A):

"very balanced bitch, good height and substance, excellent forechest, very good angulations, good movement, adequate bones"

Tali wasn't too happy about the rain on both days and didn't move all that well ... Nevertheless both judges noticed her good condition according to her age, a good head, good movement, also the still good topline, correct chest and good angulations.

Mashama got a VG from Bulgarian judge Shankov. In the report we found amongst other things "good type, small dog, symmetrical ridge ..." (Well Mashama is 66 cm/26 inches and thus right in the middle of the desired height in the breed standard ...)

18.08.2010 - And wow, time flies indeed ... today our A-Litter is already turning 7! Happy Birthday, dear A's, we hope you still have a long and happy life ahead!

17.08.2010 - Happy Birthday, Zina! Unbelievable but true, she really is turning 8 today (even though more often than not you'd think she is barely 8 months ... *ggg*)

15.08.2010 - Tali was awarded "Best Veteran in Show" at the Landessiegerschau Berlin-Brandenburg 2010 in Pritzhagen.

Dr. Peper was especially fond of her excellent head and expression, excellent topline and sound body and movement as well as excellent angulations and feet.

Moyo got an EXC which made us very happy.

From the judge's report: "excellent head, correct top- and underline and proportions, excellent angulations, sound movement"

::: update July 2010

At the annual meeting and show of our Club ELSA in Bad Wildungen we have shown our TALI (almost 11 years old) in Veteran class.

Both judges praised her 'excellent show condition' and still great shape, alas ... On Saturday, 24-07-2010, she came in third to an 8 and a 9 year old girl and on Sunday, 25-07-2010, she was second to a 9 year old.
