Naughty N’ Nice Day 31

21 Jan

Here are the Sadie X Havoc puppies at day 31. They are quite used to their ex-pen apartments in our dining room. Mostly they like climbing on people who come to visit, sit to be picked up, eating, and wrestling with big stuffed toys.

Naughty N’ Nice

Sadie and Havoc’s Naughty N’ Nice litter who were born December 17th, are currently 5 weeks old! They have been moved from the whelping box to a more permanent set of ex-pen apartments in our dining room. We’re trying to get them to “potty” in wood shavings in a plastic bin. It’s um, hit or miss as they say. They are rough housing, sleeping a lot, eating a lot, and have found out that laps are the best place to be (so vizsla). They are listening to the sweet sounds of desensitizing music (sirens, crying, etc) and seem pretty nonplussed by that and the noises from the kitchen next door. They are still weighed twice daily, given lots of cuddles and belly raspberries, and get their “teefies” checked regularly for showring practice. We still have 2 spots left on our waiting list for this litter.

New Grand Champion! So it turns out that Rory, GCH LaTierra’s Rory O’Rourke from the Sadie X Tosci litter looks like he will be doing very well for 2014. He finished his Grand Championship at the Greater Fredericksburg Kennel Club on Friday, January 10th, 2014. It was a 4 point major. Rory defeated the #5 dog in the country for 2013. Go Rory Go!

Congrats to Charlie, CH LaTierra’s Charlemagne, who won Best of Breed at Pasco Florida Kennel Club this past Sunday, Jan 19th 2014. 5 points towards his Grand Championship! Charlie went select the other days with 8 points towards his GCH this weekend.

Congrats to Rory who went select 3 days at the Annapolis Kennel Club show, and Best of Opposite on Sunday this weekend.

Naughty N’ Nice Litter Week 3

6 Jan

Sadie and Havocs puppies have opened their eyes and are getting their first try of goat’s milk in a tray. Watching them trying to lap is absolutely adorable. I think more gets on their noses than actually inside them. This is day 19 and 20.

The ‘Naughty & Nice’ Litter has arrived.

19 Dec

Sadie stopped eating Monday, December 16th and even refused Bacon, so we knew something was up. A temperature check showed that her temperature was dropping. Those are her usual two big indicators of impending labor. We took her to the vet, and instead of the previous ultrasound’s estimate of 6 puppies, we had an X-ray estimate of 8-9. Wow!
The first boy, Rascal was born at 2:35AM on Tuesday, December 17th. At about 9AM, there was a long pause and no contractions with 3 puppies left, so we took Sadie to the vet for a little bit of oxytocin to help her get the last 3 out. The vet thought she might need a caesarian for the last puppy, but the last girl arrived within 5 minutes of her deadline. In total, Sadie whelped 5 boys and 4 girls for a grand total of 9! puppies.

In birth order: Rascal (Light Blue Boy), Rowdy (Red Boy), Angel (Pink Girl), Darling (Magenta Girl), Dandy (Dark Green Boy), Minx (Black girl), Mischief (Light Green boy), Button (Yellow Boy), Scamp (Purple Girl).

Momma and babies look fine. Here’s their first family photo.
