Å være hunde eier er ikke alltid noen dans på roser. Ulykker og uheldige hendelser forekommer uansett om en vil eller ikke. Tikket inn en mail fra lille Prince´s (CO Brooklyn) eier her om dagen, om at lille Prince hadde vært så uheldig, og brukket benet. Etter en vellykket operasjon, håper vi nå at Prince kommer seg raskt igjen og kan ut å løpe som normalt. Vi sender noen varme god bedrings tanker til Prince med eiere.

Ja en ulykke kommer sjelden alene. Vår herremann Cowboy har vært svært uheldig han også. En uskyldig øyeinfeksjon ble dryppet som normalt, men dessverre ville det ikke leges som normalt, og dette resulterte i et sår på hornhinnen. Øyet er svært delikat og ikke noe en tuller med, så Cowboy måtte inn å operere. Dessverre har det vært vanskelig å få det til å gro skikkelig og ny operasjon måtte til. Resultatet vet vi i skrivende stund ikke, men vi gjør det vi kan for at vår prins skal få beholde øyet. Cowboy har fått utstillingsforbud i kommende periode for at såret skal få gro. Takk Anita for at du steller så bra med lille Cowboy, vi vet at han er i beste hender hos deg!

Dessverre kan en ikke forutse alt, men det viktigste er å gjøre det beste ut av situasjonen når uheldige ting skjer. Positiv tenkning er viktig, og man får håpe på det beste. :o)

Helsinki-trip and puppies

Monday morning I took "Tina" (Chi O´din Antigua)with me and went to the airport. Our flight left early for Helsinki, Finland. In the airport in Helsinki, we godt picked up by Marja-Leena, Kennel A´Dreams and we went to her and Kimos house in Vantaa - a lovely and peaceful place (Here did also "Rinos" mother and litter-sister live). Later in the evening we went to the train station to pick up Anna-Maria and "Rino" (A´Dreams Black Soldier) who I was going to stay with. In the evening "Tina" and "Rino" had their first meeting, and there was love at first sight! We was right on time :o) After mating I was so lucky to meet several of "Rinos" puppies from two different combinations, all was very promising and had a lovely carachter. I had also the opportunity to meet Taru from Kennel Baron Castle who came with one of her puppies. We had a great time, and ended the evening with barbeque.

Tuesday Anna-Maria took me to Helsinki. I had never been to Helsinki so I think it was great that she wanted to show me the city. We was visting several shops, but most exciting was Stockman that was this huge place with 7 floors filled up with shops! Great! After Pizza and Ice Cream we went back to Marja-Leenas house, and "Rino" and " Tina" did once again had a successful mating. Two lovebirds who liked each other very much, they was playing and had fun all the time. :o) In the evening Sanna came with her A´Dreams Black Ace and A´Dreams Black Ivory

On wednesday we was ready to go home to Norway, but first we had the opportunity to visit Taru, Kennel Baron Castle, and to see her dogs and to have a chat. Thank you so much Taru, for inviting us into your home, I hope to see you soon. :o)

Thank you so much everyone that we met this days in Helsinki. It was so great to meet you and you dogs! Thank you Marja-Leena and Kimo for your hospitality, I am so grateful. And big thanks to Anna-Maria - thank you so much for letting us use your little prince in our breeding and for our "Tina", and that we could meet in Helsinki which made it much more easy for me! Now we are hoping that we will see results of this matings, and that we will have puppies in July! :o)

Jean Dark Jelly Bean became 4. in junior class with HP and Jean Dark Enchilada became EXC4 in Champion class. :o) A good performance with good results in this large competition.

Just came home from a 5 days holiday in our cabin with our dogs. Long walks in the forrest and warm swims has been our days there with a lot of sun. Odin has been swimming several times a day, and has finally learned how to do it correct - and he is now able toreally enjoy it and have long swims with Erik. Our girls has been having several swims, and that has been necessary when it has been really hot. :o)

Whitehouse´s One Tough Cowboy

We are so proud to present our new male. I have for a long time been a huge fan of Judith Whites Miniature Pinschers in USA, especially her Multi BISS AMCH Whitehouse´s One Tough Cookie. Unfortunately when I contacted Judith, Cookie was retired and was not going to have more puppies.Well it was a loss for me, but something that I just had to realize. Until... I was offered to buy her last son Cowboy, and could not resist, but who could? - This male is a wonderful male in every way, and has the qualitys that we could really need here in Scandinavia. Our biggest gratitude goes to Judith at Kennel Whitehouse for this pot of gold. We treasure him dearly and almost can´t wait to see his future puppies in our kennel. More about Cowboy at Our Dogs.

Even though we have not been breeding Miniature Pinscher for long, we have already several good contacts through breeders of the MinPin all over the world. To have the opportunity to cooperate with great breeders with wonderful experience, making me humble. It is so important for us to have the opportunity to broaden our bloodlines and to expand our breeding, something that we are not able to do without all this great breeders that we cooporate with. I am so grateful! To get top quality dogs with exciting and new bloodlines is not easy, but with having patience and by utilizing our time the best way we could, we are proud to present our new prince. We are so grateful that his breeder and former owner made this possible for us.

His name is Cowboy, and we are delighted to have the opportunity to present him here in scandinavia. He has no realtives in this part of the world, and are a top quality dog in every way. He is already champion in his home country and has a wonderful progeny. We are really looking forward to continue his show career here in Europe, and to see his future puppies here. More pictures and info will follow soon.

Lovely Italy

Tuesday morning was on my way to Venice. The plan was to spend the night at a hotel, and at wednesday meet Diana at the airport, where I was going to receive little Yvonne Vom Kösslbachtal. - When I arrived my hotel I meet Gaby, Gaby had with her Yvonne so I could see her. And she was adorable. Later that evening I went to see the beautiful city of Venice. It is a marvellous city that I fell in love with once. Wednesday came, and Diana and Gaby pick me up at my hotel and drove me to the airport. Home with me I had my sweetheart Yvonne. She is a lovely little princess, and we are thrilled to have her here in Norway. She is not only a very promising little girl, but she also has a very exciting and strong pedigree. We will take good care of her, Diana. Thank you so much for this treasure. :o)
