Lilibet the beagle turns 4 weeks

Little Lili is growing – although not too much – she is actually rather small and I am really starting to wonder if she will end up as a 13. She loves to explore the yard and play with the other pups – she certainly holds her own even though she is so much smaller.

Now, if only the smoke from the wildfires would clear, maybe they could play outside for longer than 30 mins at a time.

Sylvie’s beagle girl turns 3 weeks

Little Lilibet is thriving under Syl’s care – she is now eating 3x a day and nursing just on an “as needed” basis. Its so fun to see this little girl grow up and I can’t wait to see how she will turn out.

Phoenix’s CKCS puppies open their eyes

1 Comment

It’s been a long but wonderful week. I wasn’t entirely sure the 2 boys were going to make it to this milestone as they were not gaining weight despite me giving them support with Sub-Q, warmth and top up feedings (so they wouldn’t get tired nursing).

However, I am feeling more optimistic with the whole litter reaching their “double birthweight” milestone and opening their eyes.

So – without further ado, the 4 houses of Hogwarts

Puff (Hufflepuff) (Girl 1)

Gryffin (Gryffindoor) (Boy 1)

Raven (Ravenclaw) (Girl 2)

Sly (Slytherin) (Boy 2)

Sylvie’s baby beagle girl has opened her eyes

4 Comments

We came up with a name for Sylvie’s little survivor – LILIBET. It seemed fitting to honor the late Queen Elizabeth II who just passed away. She was strong, determined, soft hearted, and a huge advocate for pure breeds.

Little Lilibet is growing little a sweet little flower. She is sweet and mellow and yawns when we pick her up. Her eyes are open and we are delighted at how she is growing so far. Syl is a content and attentive mother – we couldn’t ask for more after all she went through.

Sylvie’s beagle babies

Sometimes breeding brings us so much joy. And sometimes it brings us heartache. This post is one with some heartache – I have endeavored to be honest about the good, the bad, the ups and downs with my journey in breeding and so I want to share this also. You have been warned and I understand if you dont want to read on.

Sylvie’s baby #2 (the biggest girl) thrived from day 1. She was big and healthy and I am grateful. The first baby, I bottle and tube fed for support as she was tiny – I was afraid that she would use up her energy trying to find a nipple instead of growing so she had equal time with mom and supported with a bottle. Baby #3 was born with an overbite. While overbites are fairly common in neonates (they help the latch), this one was an extreme overbite. More than that, she also struggled to breathe, often gasping for air when there was no reason for it.

I took these photos of the 3 girls. Little did I know, they would be the first and last official photos of baby 1 and 3. We lost them both within the first week of birth. To say that we tried everything to save them is an understatement, but I also firmly believe that sometimes it is not meant to be. I am grateful to Dr Thoreson and the team at Klahaya Animal Hospital who took great care of them (and me) this week.

Sylvie got to see both girls after each passed. She grieved a bit but is going amazingly well. Did she know there was something wrong? or is this just natures way? I dont know, but I am grateful she hasn’t skipped a beat in taking care of our precious survivor.

Enjoy these photos of our little ones:

RIP little ones <3

Watson the cavalier gets BOB at Enumclaw

I was so proud to pilot Watson myself this weekend and we got Best Of Breed on Saturday under judge Mrs Donelle Richards. We then went on to make the cut in a competitive toy group and even played in the Owner handler group.

I am very proud of this 2.5 year old boy who is proving to hold his own and we are just a few points shy of his Grand CH now.

*Sob* – this is the final post I will be doing of these precious little ones as they will start going to their new homes. I will be keeping close tabs on them of course, but it is always bittersweet to say goodbye. It has been so special to raise these precious little babies.

Cinnamon is now going to be called Willow – Kazuri’s Cover Me In Sunshine. I will co-own her with Maria from Starfall Samoyds.

Nutmeg (yet to be named) will be moving to live with his 1/2 brother with the Miller family

Ginger is now known as Crosby – Kazuri’s Answered Prayer and will be living with his mother Vixen who is retiring and the Neuenschwander family in Oregon

Clove who is staying at Kazuri and his now going to be called Aspen – Kazuri’s Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.
