The big move.

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

The time is coming when we have to say good bye to this fantastic litter and let them settle into their new homes. We are extremely pleased with this litter and how they are looking. We think they are a very even litter with fantastic heads and good conformation. Its still early days but i think this is a litter with large show and working potential, so hopefully we will see this progress in the near future.

Week 7 weigh in, the big move.

Early retriever training with Breeze.

Monday, February 18th, 2008

These early stages of training are very delicate, all training should be fun and within capable reach for success form the puppy.

As you can see from the video Breeze is very happy when working there is no obvious pressure on her at any point.

What i look for when i start training is a keen eye for myself and the retrieve.

At this early stage I’m starting to steady breeze with out her knowing by teasing her by pretending to throw the dummy, but its always a game.

I wouldn’t want her steady to a thrown dummy for at least 6 – 8 weeks, i want to keep her keen with drive and enthusiasm.

Always giving plenty of praise.

Breeze is well underway, take a look!

Amba’s puppies 4 weeks old.

Monday, February 18th, 2008

Toller update.

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

Amba’s litter is coming on strong and healthy, we have been shocked with the litter being so even in weight. Amba is in fantastic shape and up to now hasn’t lost a pound!

 As the puppies grow it is becoming more difficult to tell them apart so we have micro-chipped each puppy for identification.

The litter has just finished there first course of worming with panacur 10% over 3 days. 

Over the next week we will be encouraging the puppies to eat soaked puppy food, 3 times a day.
