Oh Yeah, You Blend

Here is Lobo being cute (they all seem to have a swirly wave on their backs as their adult coats come in – all my Vallhunds have had this, it goes away after their adult coat is all the way in):

Here is Colby (Alkemi Batman LS) out for a walk on a beautiful day:

Here is Lobo (Alkemi Beowulf del Roble LS) at 3 months, his mum Jan says he has worked his first track and nailed it first try! You’ll notice that his tail is a blur in every picture, he is a happy guy!

Ollie’s mum Pat sent me these awesome pictures of Ollie on his 12 week-iversary, and somehow I didn’t post them here, sorry Pat!

Look at this little guy!

Ollie next to his moose friend, who shows us how big he is getting (Ollie, not the moose)

Here is Zhora at 3 months/13 weeks, she is awesome if I do say so myself: loves to work, scary-smart (she figured out Crate Games in maybe four treats), loves everyone. And I think she’s kinda purty too!

Zhora – 3 months

There is concern that ears are getting too small in this breed…I have singlehandedly fixed that problem! (She will grow into them!)

One of the things that makes breeding so rewarding is seeing your puppies in their new homes, living good lives. We have been very fortunate with all our puppies, and Lobo is no exception.

Here are the latest pictures from his mom Jan:

Lobo isn’t just a pretty face, he also helps his dad Jim with the gardening! Digging is his forte.

And when his hard day’s work is done, he has his foster mom Glory (who is very concerned with his welfare) as a pillow. Sleep well!

Ollie is settling in with his new mom Pat very well, he has already started puppy agility and has made new friends! His mom sent a picture of him with a toy moose for comparison, so we can see how he is growing. Ollie will hopefully be a NADAC agility dog!

Here is Cricket in her new home:

Here are Lobo’s “official” two months old pictures courtesy of his mom Jan (he is 7 inches tall at the withers and 9 pounds):

8 1/2 week old Zhora just worked her very first track! Just 10 feet, but with a curve. She worked for her dinner and some cheese, I clicked her just as she reached each treat, and she got the idea after just three treats! Nose was down, lots of sniffing and thinking. Jackpot at the end was her bowl with the rest of her dinner in it. Very cool, thanks to Lobo’s owner Jan for the idea!
