We are pleased to announce the arrival of five
hearty boys and two lovely girls, born February 5, 2009.
This breeding between Frank and Dyna is an exciting one
for us because it will hopefully allow us to extend our three generations of
working mobility service dogs to four generations. Frank, my current mobility
dog is the grandson of Sam, the boy who was my original assistance dog.
Sam’s daughter Caprice also did mobility work for me as Sam aged. Sam was
also the sire of Frank’s dam, Greta and Frank has proven to be as
capable, level headed, and invaluable as his granddad
was in his working years.
Dyna has also been trained as a mobility dog and is
a capable assistance dog. She has also shown herself to be an excellent mother,
managing the whelping very easily, and providing excellent care to her new
family.
Our previous litters have produced puppies who
excelled as family companions and performed as carting Bouviers, and titled in conformation,
agility, obedience, rally, and herding. Others were active as therapy dogs.
As I did with our other litters, I plan to begin
early learning exercises with the puppies so that they not only learn how to
learn, but also have basic foundation behaviors under their paws while they are
growing up here. All training is done using positive reinforcement and
motivation so that the puppies have fun learning.
Both
parents have been fully health tested. Please EMAIL me for pedigrees or to get
further information about the puppies.
