A hard decision today

Well, after our morning apointment at the vet with Pitanga, we decided that the nodule she has in her ear has to come out, so next week is surgery week for my girl.

After a long conversation we decided that she will also be neutered. She has had these nodules before and after last heat there was a very suspicious looking nodule in one of her mammary glands.

He love Pitanga to much to be risking her health for the joy of another litter. We had a litter planned for this summer,…

The second evening should have been judged by Mrs M. Dekaristou from Greece, but she had to withdraw owing to illness, and was replaced by Mr P Kersey from NZ. His Best of Breed Irish went to young Finoo, Amhurst HejHej Finoo (AI), with Reserve Bitch CC going…

Even just one…
