Hi all, this is my first attempt at a BLOG, so hopefully I can make it interesting.
We and the dogs have had a great year. A few ups and downs.
To start off we had a lovely litter of Bullmastiff pups New Years Eve 2007. This consisted of 7 bouncing babies, 4 boys and 3 girls. Dispite Jana saying she wasn't keeping any one little male stole our hearts......so Bullstone The Prestige aka Leroy stayed on. He has turned into a stunning big boy with heaps of potential. Spoiled rotten of course. His first show out he took Baby Puppy in Show. Jeff took him down to Brisbane to the Bullmastiff National Specialty Show where he came 3rd in Minor Puppy dog class. We were over the moon. Leroy continues to grow and is very photogenic. That Face!!
We did try and breed another litter of Bullmastiff pups around Easter time but had no luck. And timing was all off when the rest of the girls had their heats.........so next year we hope.
Had some fun with Rambo(french bulldog) winning a Puppy in Show and qualifiying for Puppy of the Year! He also had a Junior in Show win this year. On the down side he and his father don't get on. We haven't decided what to do as yet as Rambo spends alot of time in his crate where it's safe.
Had some trouble with paralysis ticks this year, both Choppy and Layla spent some time at the vets, both are fully recovered. Sadly, Leroy's father also had a bout with a tick and wasn't so lucky. Our sympathy goes to Michelle, he was a great dog but lives on thru his babies.
On another high Paddy our Saluki finally won a Best in Show, he has been bridesmaid a couple of times but got the big one. He has now qualifyed for Top Show dog of the Year for the second time and did it on his 5th birthday.
Sadly, we lost our older Saluki, Cruiser during the year and also our Bullmastiff boy, Gimpy. They are sadly missed.
We had a cute litter of French Bulldog pups born in July. 2 boys and a girl. About to go to new homes very soon. We have also bred Budda back to her Grandfather and are expecting some lovely pups from that union.
Jana was also a Grandma for the second time. Her daughter Sarah had a lovely boy born 7 May, welcome Kobie Dean to the family, a brother for Joel.
