Snow Day with Beagles and Cavaliers

As much as I love being a breeder of beagles and cavaliers, first and foremost, our dogs are our family members and pets. They sleep on our couches and in our home and we don’t have any “kennel” that they stay in.
This week our home in Woodinville, Seattle experienced snow. It doesn’t happen very often and so when it does, we all get out and enjoy it. The dogs were no exception running and playing and having a blast. Even Arrow, who is a week and a half away from puppies, got out there and played with us all.
So much fun indeed 🙂

Dog heaven ~ AKC beagles and Cavaliers Woodinville Seattle WA

Life is good in the crisp cool weather here in Woodinville Seattle.   The beagles and cavaliers are enjoying walks and snoozing on the coach.  We are puppy sitting our friend’s pug Oscar for a few days – he is just one of the gang 🙂

Cavalier puppies are on the way ~ AKC Woodinville Seattle

1 Comment

We are thrilled and proud to announce that Arrow is pregnant again to the handsome Dustin – CH Verheyen Dustin (imported from the UK).   We chose Dustin as he comes from a long line of health tested dogs – not just hips/elbows and hearts, but also generations of clear MRI brain scans.

As you know, our aim is to breed dogs that are beautiful AND healthy and so Dustin was a clear choice as a match for Arrow while he is still in the USA.   We are excited to see what might be hiding in this litter.  (We are secretly hoping for a tri female but I guess time will tell).   We saw 3 babies in a single ultrasound frame, so we are confident that we have at least 3 babies growing in there (se the picture below).

Babies are due mid Feb – at this stage we have a small waitlist of families waiting for these babies. Enquiries still welcome.

Sirius attends his first AKC dog show

We co-own Sirius (Arrow’s son from her first litter) with Alisha from Lockestar Cavaliers.   Alisha took him to his first official dog show this past weekend to play at the Puyallup Dog show.    He made us proud and got some good ring experience.

Way to go Alisha and Sirius. 🙂

Baby it’s cold outside

Brrrrrr ~ Woodinville Seattle isn’t usually super cold, but weeks of blow freezing temperatures has meant that the lake we live on has frozen.   We have been enjoying walking on the ice (yes I promise we drilled holes to make sure it was thick and safe to do so).

Beagle Puppies Pedigree ~ AKC registered.

We are very proud of each breeding we do.  We carefully plan out each one, looking at the strengths and weaknesses of our girls and find a stud that compliments her.   This breeding is what we call a line breeding as we are doubling back on “Truman”, hoping to solidify everything we like in him, into our bloodlines.  Only time will tell 🙂

Here is the puppy’s pedigree.

Introducing Mia and Truman’s puppies

We are so proud to announce that Mia and Truman are parents to 4 healthy tri babies – two boys and two girls.  Born Christmas Eve – so the babies have Christmas nicknames.  Kris, Rue (aka Rudolf), Eve and Dancer.

Unfortunately, one of the puppies got stuck and so Mia ended up with a C-section, but she is recovering well and all the puppies are healthy and strong.

These sweet babies are being raised with co-breeders Mike and Karen Kurtzner in California.  I get to watch them grow from afar this time 🙂

Rest in Peace Cooper

2 Comments

Cooper was the kind of dog everyone wants. Gentle, calm and just a solid part of our family.   Anyone who met him loved him because he was just such a sweet old soul.

This morning, he passed away unexpectedly.  We had noticed he wasn’t himself this morning – he vomited up his breakfast and was very wobbly on his legs.  But we had no idea how sick he must have been.  True to his gentle nature, I have to wonder how much he hid from us – he wouldn’t have wanted us to fuss.

A big hole is going to be left in our home.  He was a teacher for the puppies that came into our home.  We loved taking him hiking and camping.

Rest in Peace sweet Cooper man.  We love you

Cavaliers are 10 weeks – and 2 are for sale

4 Comments

Well, the day had to come *sniff sniff* when we had to make decisions on who we grow up.  Right now, it looks like we will raise Sirius up and see if he has potential as our next show dog.

That means that “Teddy” and “Albus” are ready for their forever homes.   We haven’t advertised them as we wanted to watch them grow first.

Teddy is full of fun – he is bold and goofy.  We believe he will be a perfect companion for a family with children or even someone who wanted to dabble in agility as he will be up for anything.

Albus is sweet and gentle – he is a true lap dog and loves nothing more than to be with you all the time.  He will make someone a perfect companion.

If you are interested in either of these precious dogs, we would love to talk to you.

Both parents have been extensively health checked and are clear for hearts, eyes, hips, patellas and both parents were MRI scanned revealing no CM or SM.

These puppies will be sold as companions for $2000 (US) on a neuter contract.  They have been raised in our home with kids and other dogs.  They have been vet checked, de-wormed, first shots and micro-chipped.  They are ready to go to their forever home anytime.
