Kristin's News: January 2009

Whoooosh......Lee Elvis strikes again by double digits! This is Maryville Rumble's new super pup at Palm Beach. Since breaking in this pup has been a monster. Here he is in his lastest romp to the wire!

Oneco Mais Oui finally had her babies, although not quite the way we wanted. She ended up having a c-section due to three large pups. Mom and babies are fine although Mais Oui's breeding days are over as soon as they started. She had to be spayed as her uterus was too badly damaged.

Zam Turbo Blitz (full sister to Ebony River) is due with a bellyfull of Deco Deano pups on Tuesday. This looks to be a large litter!

Our broods that are currently bred and due in February are :

Greys Nordic Ice - Fine Silver*

DC Brenda Lee (littersister to Bouncing Bucky/Trent Lee) - Fine Silver*

Cool Cat* - Group Rooster*

Oooga Chockah - Farloe Black*

Honest Emigrant*- Flying Hydrogen

Off to train this month are:

8 Flying Hydrogens owned by Henry Howe

1 Dodgem By Design owned by Henry Howe

1 Swahili Eile owned by Kristin Block or Doug Allen

Don't forget International Chat Sundays and Wednesday evenings at 5pm EST. 10PM over in Ireland! Hope to see you there!

Also do not forget if your brood bitch breaks season between Jan. 14-24 I will not be able to breed her as I will be out of the country from Jan 28th - Feb. 6th. Dr. Barber will be available to do implants in my place with I am gone!

We just welcomed a new litter into the world in the wee hours of the morning. They are by Swahili Eile* ex Dance Of Dreams. Dance Of Dreams is a littersister to the recently exported stud dog, Kinloch Brae who is now standing with FFK in Ireland. Congratulations to owner Henry Howe on this beautiful litter!

Oneco Mais Oui (Gable Dodge ex Oneco Inquizitiv) is due with Maryville Rumble* pups tomorrow. This will be her first litter and they are similarly bred to the litter of Cool Princess see /http://www.greyhound-data.com/d?i=1298283. As you can see the same theory was used in this mating as the one that created Cool Princess. These will hopefully be a litter of flyers. We will be offering this litter for sale at earmark.

Many thanks to all the people who have inquired about the upcoming litter of Farloe Black* pups out of the great Oooga Chockah. If you want to reserve a pup I can add you to the list. I will retain 3 of the pups here the rest will be offered for sale and can be moved at earmark or boarded on here.

Check out this replay from last night on one of Maryville Rumble's* hottest young pups. Lee Elvis is in the 8 hole and wins in a sub 30 sec. time.

Please check out my breeding articles that are featured on the Greyhound Nuts Board. NO BULL is an on-line greyhound newspaper based in the UK/Ireland. I will be writing about many breeding topics in the coming months. Here is a link to the articles. http://forums.greyhoundnuts.com/index.php?topic=2897.0 The link for the Greyhound Nuts is featured on our Link tab on our website.

Group Singer and two wee Westmead Hawk pups will be arriving Stateside in a couple weeks. Congrats to Jon Arno and family on their new little "Hawk" pups. They will be raised here and finished by top trainer, Ferrell Pearson.

Lastly, we will be hosting an international chat every Wednesday and Sunday night beginning at 5pm EST (10pm in Ireland). Tonight will be the very first chat! We hope to visit with many of you on there tonight! Pedigree expert, Martin Roper will be present to answer questions as well! I hope to have featured guests in chat on different nights. If anyone has a suggestion as to who they would like to see as a guest please send us an email!

Cheers!
