Dawnville Shetland Sheepdogs: Not so lucky
http://dawnville-shelties.blogspot.com/2009/11/not-so-lucky.html
Maandag 23 november 2009. A couple of weeks ago I posted a message about Lisa and her broken hockbone. We expected everything to be OK in a couple of weeks but unfortunately it did not turn out to be that easy. The metal pin that was placed in her leg has worked it's way out after only a few weeks and had to be removed much earlier than expected. Ever since the pin was removed she is not using her leg anymore and hopefully this will change in a short while but to me it doesn't look very hopefull :-(.

Dinsdag 9 juni 2009. New family member ;-). While I was unpacking my stuff yesterday I heared a sort of squeeky sound and although I first didn't paid much attention to it it got my attention when it got louder and louder. I went over to the birdcage where we have two Kakariki males (who believe one of them is a female) and at the bottom of it there are 3 little Chinese quails. He's now in a little box with a little stuffed duck friend and seems to be OK. Make no mistake, it's quite a noisy little thing!

Zaterdag 28 februari 2009. Today we have received Trae's cross issued by our Kennelclub for the Dutch championtitle. Next to the diplom this cross is issued (used to be for free but now they charge a small amount of money for it). In the back of the cross the official name of the dog is engraved and the year in which it won it's title. We have 10 at home now (for our Shelties, we have a few more from the Keeshonds and Pomeranians we used to show). Maandag 23 februari 2009. Despite this he still got 1st E...

Donderdag 29 oktober 2009. Right after the clubshow there was a sort of seminar about breedtype given by one of the judges. I did not attend as I do not want to listen to the ever on going discussion about the 'correct' type and most of what is told is the same every time. First let me say that I think it is a shame this discussion is still held so furiously and too often gets personal. We all have to breed according to the standard and for us this is the FCI standard for the Shetland Sheepdog. Use Ameri...

Zaterdag 19 december 2009. As I was going to pick up food for the dogs together with Thea. I took a few of the dogs to let them play in the snow. As we do not very often have a lot of snow the dogs have the time of their lives these days. Howard is always in for a game and really goes out of his mind when you throw things for him to chase. He looked so cute with the snow on his face :-). Trae really doesn't mind, after this he gets up and plays along with the girls. Neither of the boys ever have a sc...

Zondag 10 mei 2009. Our youngest blue girl. Yesterday we went to another show. Our youngest blue girl Dawnville Gotta Love My Looks (Spooky) was entered here by Sandra with whom she lives. Sandra asked me to show her Australian Shepherd Jangles for her and we decided I would take 'Spooky' in the ring as well. Jangles took out Best Bitch and won her 1 CC! I couldn't really decide which was the best way to handle it and got all sort of advices from outside the ring. Spooky decided to co-operate with Sandra...

Woensdag 25 maart 2009. Forgot to show the 'trophy's' we won at the Belgian show:. Left is Flirt's and right is Howard's. Do they come any uglier? A couple of years ago we won one as well, 'unfortunately' it broke when we got our gear out of the car. Think these two will be all the way in the back of our trophy cupboard. Dinsdag 24 maart 2009. Last weekend we had a lucky weekend with both our own dogs and others with their children. After a couple of reserves this really made my day :-). On Sunday there ...

Dawnville Shetland Sheepdogs: april 2009
http://dawnville-shelties.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Zaterdag 25 april 2009. Today I went to a show in Belgium woth Howard and Tinsel, I was hoping to get the qualifying CC for his Belgian title with Howard. I took Tinsel and not Flirt as Tinsel doesn't have Belgian CC's yet and Flirt has 1, as there needs to be 1 year in between the first and the last CC I wanted that first for Tinsel as soon as possible. I was told his feet were too much in one line but in my opinion that is the meaning of the word single tracking or am I wrong here? I still had to go in...
