Frankliny - earlier known as Franklin... :o)

This is Cobre Verde Frankliny, the texel girl from the litter below (Orestes - Touch). A nice little red-white, let's see how he develops...



Heaven Slate

A Portugese gentleman - with a rose. Even if the rose is bigger than him at the moment... :o)
Anyway, this is Heaven Slate dos Roedores do Algarve, a slate blue texel baby boar. His breeder is Minda Santos, and "Heaven Slate" comes from Brentwood Hotel parents and grandparents (father: Bunuel at Brentwood Hotel). We wish all the best to him!

Here they are...

The tri babies are 10 days old now, so I thought it was time to take the first photos... It is a special litter as I do not expect such colours in the future.

Litter of 4 red-whites

The first litter of our German import Orestes vom Gotenholz (texel, red-white) was born! Mother is Touching The Sky at Brentwood Hotel (sheltie, tortie-white).
4 nicely marked babies (3 sheltie and 1 texel) with deep red colour.
Congrats to the breeder Ági Juhász!


Surprize Colours

A litter of 3 babies was born: all in black-buff-white! It was a surprize to me as no babies in that colour have been born in that colour here for a very long time... Both parents: tortie-white. Photos will follow soon.

Black day: We have lost Frida

Frida, the oldest member of our dog family passed away today: we simply could not let her suffer any more. She was 12, a real part of our life every day - even if her lifestyle has become moderate in the last years. But she was a typical merry cocker till her health problems occured. An exceptionally intelligent dog, nice and gentle - a pride of her breed. She also makes me confident that this is the breed which was "invented" for me, and that I was "invented" for this breed.
She is missed so much...

Greetings from Spain

Again, we received some photos of cavies living far away, which is a pleasure always. These two boys reside in Spain, with Ana Frean. They soon will be shown for the first time. :o)
"Burning Down" is from Equality at Brentwood Hotel (now living in Moscow, Russia) and Arjuna of El Dorado (imp. Germany).
"Yahoo.com" is from Goldoni von Werne (imp. Germany, now living in Bucarest, Romania) and Underestimated at Brentwood Hotel.
We say many thanks to Ana for the photos and the good care, and wish much success to the boys!
