Hunter's first puppies should be on the ground around April 11-13th. I dont know when LE ovulated, so I just have to guesstimate. But they had two 20+ minute ties and LE seems to get pregnant just off having a boy near... so for now, I will get excited and start thinking of puppy names! Dayl will update the http://www.aurigan.com/ site soon. Beatrys is only a little over a week from whelping too.

I have opened my list for potential puppy buyers. I usually wait until I know the bitch is actually pregnant to start a list, but even if she doesnt end up being pregnant, we have a couple other litters planned. Colors possible - Brindle, Red and Black.

Had To Add This One Too

Another picture Wiccan took at the Portland, OR show. Amazing. I love this girl. I do. Just like I love her mama.

9 months old already?!!

Just got new pics of Bella - Aurigan Dunes Celestine Blue. The Sally x Deacon litter is now 9 months old.

W. York-Patten at the Cardigan Complex Blog took some smashing pictures of the kids at the Portland, OR show this past weekend, and this head shot of Bella is so nice! Thanks! I have a VERY hard time getting head shots of her.

Question to the Cardigan populus in general: Wiskers - trimmed or left alone? Anyone had a bad experience or a good experience with Wisker trimming? I ask because Bella has some tentacles coming out of her face! You can kinda see them in the picture. They seem a bit overwhelming for her face, but I have never trimmed whiskers before. :)

Sally gets her Championship!

Dayl showed Sally today under Judith Goodin to WB/BOS over specials for a 4 point major! Our pretty girl got all majors to finish. Next weekend is the Portland, OR cluster. Looking forward to seeing everyone again. After the stress of starting a new job, I am in need of some dog show frivolity!
