Website Crash
Well the genius website designer made one little error and had to go back 6 months! So please excuse the outdated info and lack of links/slideshows etc while I put it all back!
Dollys' First Litter
Dolly had 2 pups and both are gorgeous and HUGE at 8 months old! Very very good looking dogs...Dee Dee and Chainsaw
Lots of litters coming.
All of the girls have just been through seasons and most are due for mating next season. It is going to be a busy time with Isabelle probably going with Duke, Dolly for her last litter with Duke, Ruby with Hardefeldt, Dee Dee with Duke and Pearl with Duke. Tia and Pema will have to wait and I expect Pema and Tia to be having thier first season very soon. In the future I hope to put Tia and Chainsaw together and Pema and Hardefeldt together.
Latest additions and updates.
It is hard to put ages of dogs up as they always change! I have lots of them as you can tell and plan to keep a few of the ones I breed (females) to make it to 15 in total.
