21.05.11 - Iza and Dhamira has met the mechanical bear, and the results were mixed, but much as expected. Iza is our very tough girl and she wasn't very impressed by this bear, barked some at him at first, but lost interest when he didn't behave as a "normal" bear (he moves back and forth on a string, and can only move 360 degrees around himself). Dhamira was very interested at first, and had very little aggression towards him and a more friendly and curious approach, but when he didn't respond to her she was a bit more insecure and wanted me to show her what to do next ;-)

02.05.11 - We had Donjuan/Isack and Etana/Selma over for a visit and took some pics, of the three here and new stack and headshot of Selma here.

15.03.11 - Individual pics of our Faro-girls here!

14.03.11 - More pics of the girls here!

13.03.11 - Well, after a long delivery, there was 7 puppies in total. Due to either the duration or from poisoning of one pup that was dead/miscarried, 5 of the pups was stillborn, we managed to revive one. More about the litter here. After many litters with almost only boys we finally have a litter with mainly girls, unfortunately only three of them here with us. They whole litter had very bright colours, black masks but no black extending the head, nearly no white except the multicrowned girl that lives, she has some white on toes and in the chest, and two others with small white chest patches. No DS, no kink tails. It is very sad that we won't have any breeding material from this litter, so I hope to be able to get a Rebel-daughter from one of the planned combinations with him as he is a male with outstanding qualities!! Pics here!
