The beagle puppies are growing – Mishka keeps them very well fed and content – they are starting to walk around and explore their baby pen and so this week will be experiencing mushy food for the first time and having toys in their pen to play with. We will also add a potty box this week as they are walking away from their sleeping area and going poop so i think it’s time.
Enjoy the photos of them this week <3

Cleo is a super first time mom. It took her about 12 hours to realize these were wonderful and not some weird aliens that squeaked. She started to clean them and be very protective of them and we couldn’t be happier with their little full bellies.
Enjoy their first “official” photos with my proper camera. My nephew Judah named them after “Duck tales” since the boys are all 3 colors and coincide with the boys from Duck Tales.

Interested in your own Kazuri Beagle or Cavalier King Charles Spaniel pup? One of these pups may be available. Please visit our Puppy page for information on our breeding plans, and pricing, how we place pups and how to apply.
Cleo is Nick and Rosie’s only daughter – she is a beloved pet and an Instagram star @cleo_thebeagle_ig Her family agreed to let me have a litter with her and I chose Chevy (CH Meadowcrest Blew My Mind) as her stud.
Overnight on Monday, she was clingy and whiney and so I slept beside her. In the week hours of Tuesday morning she was restless and shivering a little but no panting or major nesting. She didn’t want me to leave her side and so I started an email sitting close by the whelping pen so she would know I was there, but not feel me hovering.
I didn’t hear a grunt, push or any liquid sounds. My daughter came in to check on us, and peered over the pen and said “there is a puppy in there”. WHAT???? I was less than 2 feet away – I sprung to my feet – the pup was still in the sack and we broke it open and started to rub and get her warm – she started breathing and Cleo pushed out another puppy – they must have been minutes apart.
Baby #1 was a tri girl – 8.9oz
Baby #2 was a red and white boy – 9.3oz
we had a large gap and so under vet advice we gave her a small dose of oxy and she started pushing immediately and we had another boy – thanks to my momma who helped rub them down and weigh them
Tri boy – 9.4oz
and last baby was a blue boy – 10.35oz – just like her mom Rosie she saved the biggest for last. this color is not common since it is a double recessive color, but is part of the standard (just in case anyone wanted to know)
All the pups are thriving and doing great – we couldn’t be more thankful.
Mishka and Murphy’s pups are getting rolly-ier and polly-ier (thats a real term I know). 🙂 HAHA. No eyes opening yet, but thats okay – I am sure it wont be long. They are strong and well fed – Mishka has been a super mom once again.

Chelsea and Tex were a great team before. Mike and Karen’s training and conditioning was the icing on the cake, and Chelsea loved showing him this weekend.
After 7 months away from her, he did not skip a beat and picked up right where he left off! On their first day back in the ring at the inaugural Hound Association of Northern California specialty Tex won BOV (15 inch) under judge Robin Riel, Owner-Handled Hound Group 2nd under judge Stephen Cabral and a cut in a packed hound group under judge Bryan Martin
On Saturday, Tex wins his second BOV today under judge Eugene Blake and topped off the day with Owner-Handled Hound Group 1st under judge Lori L Nelson
On Sunday, Tex wins Best in Specialty Show at the Stockton Beagle Club under judge Stephen Cabral among a wonderful entry 
Tex also won Best of Variety this morning and onto Owner-Handled Reserve Best in Show under judge Lori L Nelson. And finally, he capped off the night by winning Bred-By Exhibitor Best in Show under judge David Salcido!!!
I mean – does it get much better than this?? <3 I am such a proud owner and breeder of this fabulous dog.
Mishkas babies are being well fed and cared for – she doesnt make us worried and the babies are very content.
We named them after the solar eclipse that happened while Mish was pregnant.
Enjoy the babies

What a weekend to remember, and to experience it all with friends made it 10000% better.
The weather is starting to get more consistent and the puppies love playing with our bog dogs. we have a couple of guests staying while they are shown by me at local shows so just more fun
I was scheduled to go to the Spokane/CDL show, and so I asked a good friend of mine Jamie to whelp Mishka’s litter. She does such a good job and I am grateful to her for being my back up. You can see Mish is totally comfortable with Jamie and her home.
Mishka went into labor in the morning and then had her first baby in the late morning. We got a boy – 9.9oz
Second baby took it’s time – once seen, it was obvious why. A large well marked girl – 12.24oz
Puppy three was another girl – a bi color and weighed in at 11.21oz – still a very good sized pup
Our last puppy arrived around 4pm and was a 3rd girl (yeah) 10.76oz
Mom and babies all are thriving and well. I am so so thankful for these gorgeous beagle puppies to raise and enjoy.
