whippytails

Has anyone made any puppy purchases this week? I have only order teeth cleaning products and booked in for show handling lessons for later this month :)

Well done Cassie and Sumo on having another great day out. No doubt you both are a little on the tired side. Sounds like the Rotti specialty would have been very interesting to watch and listen to all the judges comments. Glad Willow had a good time out and about visiting and get cuddles. Steph Gus is really lovely. Look at those gorgeous eyes. Seems like he was a hit at his puppy warming, and looks great in his new jacket. Jack hows Koda going?

I think he looks like a Nova :)

Yay to picking out which boy will be yours Lisa. Did you think of a name for him yet? He is just gorgeous, so cute and snugly.

Nope not mental, just enjoying it :) Hope you do well tomorrow as well. How did you both handle the day?

Well done on an awesome first day showing. Will you be going tomorrow?

Huge Congrats Cassie and Sumo, so glad that you went and have done so well. Cant wait to hear how you go later on, fingers are crossed for you here.

Fantastic news, Hope you and Sumo do equally well tomorrow :D Willow looks like she has had a big very tiring day.

Some gorgeous collars on there thats for sure.

Im getting a IG stamp made so i can make metal stamped tags. I also bought martingale collars from a lady in the US but have since found lots of tutorials on it so going to give it a whirl when I get the supplies. Will order the stamp in the next f/n just waiting on a designer friend to get back to me with a design.

Im excited for you. Cant wait to hear how you both go. Sounds like you have everything set. A comfy chair and comfy shoes.

Im just buying things as the weeks go buy to keep myself busy. Show trolley is currently on route to here and should land next week. Also hope my collars from the states arrive next week. Pj pattern is all worked out, so next on my list it finding some nice waterproof fabric for the top of dog coats. Also interested to see what you come up with for your run Zereuloh.

Raiden looks very regal and so snuggly. Great news that the gazebo was a winner Cassie. Are you getting excited about the show?

I am much the same. I am waiting on litters to be born or matings to happen so could be a little way off. Im thinking Sept at the earliest before we welcome a puppy here.

They look interesting. Do you just lay them down and then fill/cover with the crusher dust? can you just them to size if needed?

Bugger, Im sure you will be fine. Jules she is just a stunning little girl. Love her pics with her purple bows.

Some of the IG from Europe just melt your heart. Wish our quarantine laws werent as long but understand why they do. Yay to your crate arriving Zereuloh. I found a bed in The Reject Shop that fits perfectly in my crate so decided against making one. I do need to make a cover and also a base bit like a bird cage cover that catches seed as I want to put it in the car for shows but dont want the crate to stick into the leather seats.

Hopefully the gazebo is what you are after. Cant wait to hear how you go at show training tonight. Jack Im sure he will be fine outside as long as his kennel is warm, off the ground ( so he doesnt get a chill) Maybe you could pop a couple of the dog chamois in his bed that might help dry him off a bit if he gets too wet whilst you arent home. Should be able to get a few from the $2 shop.

Oops sorry Whippytails I thought you were getting a Whippet too! Still same thing though, never seen a black Iggy either! There isnt alot of blacks around, but I will be visiting a breeder in NSW in Sept that has some black ones I will take a pic. Found on of DOL profiles, she has crazy ears in the pics but they do usually grow out of that. My link

Yay another little sighthound. I am waiting on an Italian Greyhound that I will be showing. Sounds like your little whippytail will arrive before mine, how exciting.

Thats brilliant Corie.

At the moment it seems that reds are the flavour of the breed so to speak but I am after a blue or a black. If there is something totally show stopping in another colour thats ok, but those to are my top picks. I would dearly love to import a cream as we dont seeem to have the gene here to create them. Sounds like you are all set for your puppy picking out day Lisa but maybe a small blankie to leave with the pups that you can use to take your pup home with.

Sounds like they are all well grounded little pups. I have colours in my head as I have a long term plan with showing but need to remember its about the make up of the dog and the personality. I cant wait.

How exciting Lisa. Do any stand out in the pictures at all?

Sumo weighs more than my 6 year old (human) lol. Thats a good effort Willow. IGs being a smaller framed breed I think it will take a little while for her to get big.
