Fine Silver* son is undefeated!

D'Bulls Fumanchew just did what few do, win all official school and go from maiden to grade A undefeated. This young standout by Fine Silver* ex Sassy Lil Sally is owned by veteran breeder, Dick Bullard. We wish him continued success with this incredible pup!

Swahili Eile* has oodles of pups breaking in right now at Southland and Tri-State. Most have broken their maidens and have started to climb the grade ladder. Breeder, Roger Knauff is so pleased that he has decided to breed to Eile AGAIN! This time it was Greys Rubberneck the AA router from Wheeling who was his lucky dance partner!

I was just informed that Group Rooster* had a winner at Cork last night. The pup won by 4 lengths in fine style. Our eldest Roosters will be leaving to train around the first of the year.

All the pups here are growing like weeds and I will get some pics this weekend and post. I apologize for the delay. We have a bitch who had a c-section and a litter of pups and never came in milk. We have bottle fed these pups since day one and it has been extremely stressful and exhausting to say the least. But we have all of them and they are now starting to eat a bit of cereal. We will breathe a sigh of relief when they get on solid food full time.

We will be sending out the Westmead Hawks, Hondo Blacks and Maryville Rumbles on 9/8 to train with Ferrell Pearson in Kansas. I am very very pleased with the whole lot of pups. My black female by Hondo Black ex Mineola Di female is a stand out in my mind. She was born at the Drumscraw Kennels under the watchful eye of breeder Paul McCusker. We all discussed this breeding to Di and thought Hondo Black was the way to go (sire of Farloe Black*) and we could not be more pleased. Keep an eye out for Hushed Whispers in about 6 months!

We thank Sonny Olsen and Rich Knauff who won the bids on breedings to Iceman Brutus* and Farloe Black*. We donated the breedings to the P.O.W.A.A.H. to help with the overturn of Question 3 in Mass.

We wish Group Skater the very best of luck in his run tomorrow night at Shelbourne Park in the quarter finals of the Irish Derby. Skater is a full brother to Group Rooster* and a litterbrother to my Group Singer*.

Puppies and more puppies.....

I apologize for not having updated my news for a couple weeks. It has been really hectic around here and we haven't gotten a whole lot of sleep.

We have had THREE litters born since my last update. The first are now 2 weeks old and are by Iceman Brutus* and out of RCK Sundown. She has 3 pups. I have already named one Icemaid Crystal. Any pups by Brutus that we or the Burfords own will have the Iceman/Icemaid prefix which is their prefix in the UK as well.

The next litter was out of KB's Endura for Henry Howe. She endedup having to have a c-section/spay. She has 6 pups. She didn't have any milk so for a week we have been doing feedings every 2-3 hours. That is why we are so exhausted.

Thankfully our veteran, Dance of Dreams, had a textbook whelp of eight healthy pups. And she whelped them during the day! Good girl!

Congrats to Henry Howe on all his newborn hopefuls!

Next up to whelp is Greys Tarmac and Hanks Cool Cat*. We broke out a vial of one of our best for Cat.....Whistlers Ike. So Henry and I are obviously pretty excited about that breeding.

Greys Nordic Ice is in season and will be going to Swahili Eile*. If you haven't noticed RCK King Tut, do yourself a favor and watch this youngster at Southland. Whooooooooooshhhhh about sums it up! King Tut is Eile's first super son. Congrats to the Knauff family on their rising superstar!
