Gayle's puppy

Gayle Smith and I teamed up to breed a litter for Gayle so she could have a new performance Dane related to her famous Tilly.  Thyme is Tilly's granddaughter so she was bred to Yoda who is a Tilly grandson.  Since Thyme only had 3 puppies last year, I expected a small litter.  But I did not expect only one.  She will be Gayle's new puppy in a week.  She is, as yet, unnamed.

Breeding plans

I will breed Callie to Zephyr again when she comes in heat.  The repro vet found a treatable reason for the missed pregnancy so she will be treated and bred again.  If, by any chance, this doesn't work, Lark will be bred when she comes in heat a little later in the winter.  But, I am hoping the Callie-Zephyr breeding will work!!!  I am so looking forward to Callie babies!!

Here is her win picture from Vermont.  Sarah Janner is handling her and the judge is Dr. Indeglia.

Just back from the vet's

Disappointing news.  Callie is not pregnant.  The ultrasound showed nothing.  So we will try again....... The vet said we did everything right as far as timing and the semen looked great so next time, I will do it the old fashioned way and take Callie to the boy.

Zephyr and Callie

An exciting breeding has taken place!!

Puppies are due in late July.  Both are thoroughly health tested and both are tested pure color blue/black.
