Nova's new family

Nova joined Hunter today, both now have a wonderful family to share together. This family lives in Canada where they take full advantage of the outdoors life. These two are very lucky dogs and we look forward to hearing about their lives over the next 12 to 14 years. Take care everyone, it was great to visit with you today.

Final nap together

Tomorrow little Miss Nova will be joining Hunter in Canada. Hunter has told us that his Canadian home is absolutly wonderful and they are willing to open their hearts and homes to another one of our puppies. Nova and Hunter are the two most similar pups we have - and how special it's going to be to have them living under one roof again! Nova had a big day today, getting her pre-boarder crossing check up, shopping for a new collar & leash and then a trip to my office. When she got home she had to take one last nap with her grandpa.

Hunter the hourder

As you can see in the pictures, Hunter likes to have all the toys on his blanket - he just loves the water and has been swimming in our small pound. ~ Sylva

Hunter gets a glimps of the Olympics

Hunter was up early (0400 hrs) to welcome the olympic torch through Mission last week - he was such a good boy in the crowds of thousands of people yelling and cheering, I was very proud of him. He is up to running 7 km in a run and goes out running 3 times a week, plus all our other activities. He is sooooooo good with my grandkidds - my 4 year old grandson walks him, Hunter never pulls, walks real careful - he knows - Hunter is amazing - We love him soooo much - he is a fun dog and smiles with all his teeth (hilarious).

Update from California

Elliot II is doing well in California. His mom says he loves the water and whenever he sees a body of water he runs right in and enjoys. He's still got a big appetite, just as he did when he was little. He's now about the same size as Sunny and still driving him nuts to play constantly, which Sunny is ready for him to outgrow. Joanna says he's very friendly with other dogs as well as all people - he sounds like a very sweet and fun loving boy. We love getting photos and updates on our pups as they grow up, thanks for sharing Joanna!!

Bow's photos arrived

The first photo is Bow winning Best In Sweeps, the second is his 4 point major win, going Best Of Winners at the 2010 Mt. Hood Dalmatian Specialty show in Portland Oregon. The next day Bow took Best of Winners again but we didn't have a 3rd photo taken ($40 per photo... 2 was enough!!). :0

Hunter is clearly in love

A photo says a thousand words as they say... I'm not sure if Hunter is saying that many words, but I think it's clear that he adores his mommy!

Indy's on the trail

It's no wonder Indy has so much muscle on him, this lucky boy gets to go run and play in the snow frequently thanks to a very devoted Dad (then head back down the mountain where snow is practically unheard of).

We hope you know how lucky your are Mr. Indy!
