Recent trip to Slovenia


Last week Gemma Jacobs and I went out for a quick trip to Slovenia (via Austria and Italy) to look at a litter sired by Gemma's (and co) Liver boy Woody (Gemswin Son of a Preacher Man Candidacasa). They were a beautifully reared litter and so typy. Gemma hopes to bring a liver girl back to England ... eventually.
I have uploaded a few video's from the trip including Mika the cat and Twisty on their regular morning grooming session.

Plans for puppies .....

Earlier this year the boys were visited by Ilona Feldman and Teresa from Germany. They both fell in love with Remus and have been waiting for their bitch "Fine" to pass  her dummy training test in order for the German Kennel Club to allow them to breed. Fine is now good to go having passed all her health and working tests.  Plans for Fine to visit Remus are now on for this summer.
