Brinn is our newest Champion

1 Comment

I am so proud of miss Brinn – she lives with her mom and dad in Seattle and they agreed to let me show her. Her first show this year was indoors and she got frightened by some loud crashes and dogs barking – so much so that I pulled her from the ring as I didnt want her to associate fear with the ring. We held her and walked her around and by the end of the weekend she was in her groove.

We have shown her sporadically over the Summer and she garnered 4 majors – 2 of which were going BOS over several lovely specials for 5 and 4 point majors! It seemed when judges liked her, they really liked her.

Brinn will take time off now and will hopefully have a litter for Kazuri in 2025 – stay tuned for that announcement.

Charity and Daisy’s beagle puppies are 1 week old

Daisy and Charity are wonderful mommas and are sharing the duties. Daisy has a little more milk than Charity but that makes sense since Chairty is feeding 5 and Daisy 4. Both girls love their babies and take good care of them.

1 week old and we needed to come up with a theme. So – i decided to go with “Yellowstone” which isn’t super original but has plenty of guy names to choose from.

So, without further ado

Daisy x Beau – Boy 1 – Walker

Daisy x Beau – Boy 2 – Buck

Charity x Tex – Girl 1 “pink” – Monica

Charity x Tex – Girl 2 “Lavendar” – Beth

Charity x Tex – Boy 1 “Brown” – John

Charity x Tex – Boy 2 “Light Blue” – Kasey

Charity x Tex – Boy 3 “Green” – Jamie

Charity x Tex – Boy 4 “Dark Blue” – Tate

Charity x Tex – Boy 5 “Yellow” – Rip

New AKC Champion Morrison

New champion in 13s – Morrison (Kazuri’s Everything Reminds Me of You)

I was so excited about this litter that I got from 25 year old semen from “BJ” – (BIS BISS Tashwould De Ja Vu) and our homebred CH Rosie (Kazuri’s Everythings Coming Up Roses).

Morrison finished from the BBE puppy class in 4 shows with 4 majors at 9 months old – this is a hard feat in 13s and we were so excited that he finished so fast.

Bark in the Park Spokane

My friend Malia took her dog Savannah to the Spokane “Bark in the park” event – Vannah-Voo as she is often known as, was made for dressing up and meeting her adoring fans – I love that the team even featured her online.

There is no doubt that show dogs are first and foremost beloved pampered pets. <3

Charity and Daisy’s beagle puppies are 2 and 3 days old

I decided since the litters are so close in age, we might as well take their photos together. I will make sure I distinguish between whose puppies are whose. Ironically Daisy was bred to Charity’s brother Beau and Charity was bred to Daisy’s brother Tex – so the puppies are basically siblings anyway 🙂 LOL. As they grow, I am sure we will see more similarities between them than differences. I am excited for both of these pairings.

Daisy x Beau

Boy 1 (more white)

Boy 2 (less white)

Charity x Tex

Girl 1 (pink)

Girl 2 (lavendar)

Boy 1 Brown

Boy 2 Light blue

Boy 3 Green

Boy 4 Dark blue

Boy 5 Yellow

Daisy and Beau welcome their beagle puppies also

What a busy 24 hours. Daisy was due on Monday 12 or Tuesday the 13th based on progesterone, but surprised us by showing no signs of labor and then popping 4 puppies out in 2 hours.

When our girls are close but not in labor yet, we feel okay about leaving them unsupervised for a couple of hours. There are some tell tale signs of labor – refusing dinner, being restless and digging, cocking their tail under, peeing frequently – Daisy didn’t show any of these signs.

Unfortunately because of this, 3 of the puppies got very chilled and did not make it. It’s hard to know if they were stillborn or chilled as they never took a breath for us. We are devastated for this loss. Her 5th puppy was born safely with us there and her two live puppies are being cared for beautifully by Daisy – she is a wonderful first time momma.

I am proud to present Daisy and Beau’s 2 precious boys – both were 9.65oz at birth.

Boy 1 has more white on his collar

Boy 2 has less white on his collar

We will let Daisy raise a couple of Chairty’s babies so the girls have a more equal load. We will do this over the coming days once Daisy’s pups have had their colostrum.

Charity and Tex welcome their beagle pups into the world

Chairty was in labor all night but nothing was really progressing. Knowing my vet was unavailable over the weekend, and it being a Friday, we opted to just take her in for a csection.

I am so so glad we did. Dr Thoreson said her uterus was not cut and repaired well the last time she had a Csection (emergency vet), and it was close to rupture in that incision area. I am so thankful he was able to get the puppies out safely and Charity was okay also. I can’t imagine the devastation of losing her if her uterus had split open. Needless to say, this will be her second and final litter.

The C section went well and Charity recovered as expected. Just like last time, she was very smitten with her babies from the start. At Dr Thoreson’s, we saw we had 5 boys and 2 girls, but didn’t weigh and measure them till we got them home. All 7 are thriving and so is mom.

The markings are all so similar and so we put collars on them to tell them apart.

Pink girl – 13.1 oz

Lavendar girl – 13.2 oz

Brown boy – 12.3oz

Light blue boy – 12.9oz

green boy – 12.9oz

dark blue boy 15.3oz

yellow male – 12.3oz

Cleo and Chevy’s beagle pups turn 8 weeks old

I managed to get some final individual photos of Cleo’s pups today after a along outdoor play time. They are heading to their new homes this weekend so I am trying to make the most of every second I have with them.

The Western Washington Hound Show

The WWHA never disappoints. It is a lovely show to attend each year.

This year, Murphy (GCH Kazuri’s Everythings Gonna Be Alright) won BOV both days and then went onto a lovely group 3 with his co-owner Sarah Smith-Falkner

Murphy’s daughter Savannah (CH Kazuri’s Gonna Be Peachy) went Select B and BOS to her father for more majors towards her Grand CH title!

On Saturday Morrison (Kazuri Everthing Reminds Me Of You) went BOW for a 5 point major and then Sunday repeated it for his 4th major to finish his CH title.

On Saturday, Brin (Kazuri’s Chasing My Dreams) went WB/BOS for a 5 point major!

On Sunday, Lumi (Kazuri’s Illuminate My Dreams) went WB for a 3 point major to take her to 13 points (including a major) from the 6-9 class!
