They are here, The Ailigaslammen A-litter is born

12.5. our lappish world was turned over when 10 huge IS puppies were born. Unluckily 2 huge(400-450g)boys were born dead. There just was not enough room for the lost ones. Their "bags"were torn and they did not get out soon enough :(

But we have 2 huge girls(360g and 380g) and 6 big guys(325g-390g) with us.

No wonder Evita was a little "fed up" when carrying!?…

Irish Setter Magazine Cover Dogs

Here's a cover of a magazine that I came across while cleaning today. I remember when I bought it being excited because you don't see them (Setters as cover dogs) that often, at least in the states. Any others out there?

Before and after...mother fed on new and improved formula for expecting bitches!

60 days...

And there they are...13 born (day 62), 12 still here. I was quite glad to see one go as I feel that 12 is more than enough...6 of each sex and great weights considering.

300g - 400g. But then what would you expect with the new and totallay improved formula for expecting bitches! The menue chosen by the mother of the puppies...and for the last three weeks of pregnancy it consisted of: Catshit, chickenshit, seaweed and… Continue

Rowena is being spayed tomorrow!

With much reluctance I have booked my beautiful Rowena in to be spayed tomorrow. At almost 9 years of age I know it is in her best interests but she is so gorgeous and such a shame that she never had a litter. Fingers crossed surgery goes well and she will recuperate quickly. She will be happy at no more seasons and no more shows and removing the risk of pyometra. Sigh, but I am rather sad.

Lempi adds a bit of Australian flavour to our lines. The dam is Blr & Rus Ch Original Gigglin Glenda and the sire Gr Ch

Lanascol Gladiator. So the little one is a mixture of brittish-australian-american breed lines. The time will tell how these spices will show in our… Continue

The prize was a beautiful trophy, given by Terry O'Leary/The motherclub in Ireland. If we can win it in 2009 and 2010 (3 times), it's ours to keep permanently. We will do our best :)
