We are beyond thrilled to announce the safe arrival of 4 sweet puppies into the world this morning.  Arrow was a rockstar, having all 5 of her puppies in just over 2 hours.  Unfortunately, as sometimes happens, one of the little boys was born without a heartbeat and we couldn’t resuscitate him as hard as we tried.

But we are grateful for the 4 beautiful babies we have.   We ended up with a Black and Tan girl, a Ruby girl, a Black and Tan boy and a Tri boy.

thank you everyone for your great wishes and your prayers.  xox

Arrow’s Xray ~ AKC Cavalier King Charles Puppies

We did an xray on Arrow today to see how many babies we might be expecting at the end of the week.  Much to our delight, it appears she might have 5 on board 🙂

So now, we will wait and keep our fingers and toes crossed that she delivers safe and sound.

We will keep you posted about the bog arrival later this week 🙂

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

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. 🙂

Cavalier puppies turn 9 weeks ~ AKC Woodinville Seattle

These not so little cavaliers have stolen our hearts – they are so friendly and sweet with a healthy dose of puppy mixed in.  It is hard to believe that they are almost ready to go to their forever homes soon.

We call them little oreos this week – we have been binding their tummies to try and encourage their belly button hernias to close. While not a problem, cosmetically it would be nice to have them closed up.  🙂

Cavalier puppies turn 8 weeks ~ AKC Woodinville Seattle

The cavalier puppies are 8 weeks so it is time for evaluations – to get a better idea we took headshots, side profiles and stacked pictures (both wet and dry) to see toplines and angles.

We are very pleased with all 3 boys.  we have our eye on which one we might grow up for a few months as a show hopeful.  We actually hope more than one will end up in a show home.

Next evaluation will be done in 2 weeks time at 10 weeks.  Which one do you like best? 🙂

Cavalier King Charles Puppies are 6 weeks

This weeks, Arrow’s co-owner Alisha, from Lockestar Cavaliers came over to look the boys over.  So far she (and I) are very excited about how these boys are turning out.  Whether they end up in the show ring or as a family pet, they will be beautiful dogs.

We took them outside for a play – here are some of the highlights.

Cavalier King Charles puppies turn 5 weeks ~ AKC Woodinville Seattle WA

Our cavalier king charles puppies are growing like weeds – they are now 5 weeks old so very mobile and starting to get into mischief.  They are eating solids although not in any kind of rush to wean off momma Arrow.

Teddy has the biggest personalty – he is an explorer and loves nothing more than to tussle and growl.  Sirius is a snuggler and a little bit of a mommas boy – he is our gentle giant.  Albus is our observer taking it all in before getting in on the action.  He got a cold last week which was a little scary but is doing great again – thank Heavens!

This week we will take them outdoors for some time on the grass – it will be fun to see them explore somewhere new and gather some different sensory experiences.  we will also set up the play space now that they are interacting with their environment more.

(PS while Albus is smaller, he is not as much as the picture shows – it is a little deceptive with him lying down as the other two are sitting 🙂 )
