Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone.
Hope you had a great green day.
So the month was quiet compared to Jan
and Feb. no major crisis to report. No puppies,
and boy do I miss puppies. Really looking forward
to Holly and Poppy's litters. I love new puppies
so much, the excitement of seeing what is born and the
love and interaction you get from puppies - there is
nothing quite like it (with the exception of children of
course).
It's been so quiet for shows, nothing
until Easter weekend in April. Izzy is off with
David in the US to complete her US championship while I
work with Cleo on her Canadian. Just does not make
sense to show two girls the same age at the same time,
and since I generally put both US and CA on my dogs this
was a good arrangement. Izzy starts showing in the
US in about 3 weeks, and Cleo, already a winner in the
ring, will show first week in April.
The April show is going to be fun, 3 of
my show homes will be bringing their puppies, and there
will be one or two other Coby related puppies there too.
Competition will be high but there will be some very
nice havanese to look at.
I'm enjoying my work with the Havanese
Fanciers of Canada, which is the National Club for
Havanese in Canada, and was asked to be the Committee
Chair for Health . This is quite an honour and I
published my first article on Havanese BAER and Hearing
in the Fanciers newsletter for spring. I will post
it on my website after the newsletter goes out.
The newsletter is a great way to keep updated on
everything Havanese and I do recommend subscribing to
it. It is available for subscription to everyone,
not just members and you can subscribe right from the
website
http://www.havanesefanciers.com/?q=newsletter.
I have also joined the Lower Mainland
Dog Fanciers, a very respected club in BC which does a
lot of work with CKC, dog health and care and is a very
proactive club with a great membership. I'm
looking forward to lending my services where I can be
most useful to them as well.
The Regional Specialty at Tradex is
coming together, we are still waiting for CKC approval,
but we are getting everything organized. Should be
a great specialty with lots of gorgeous Havanese,
breeders, handlers and owners.
Well that is it for now, enjoy this good
weather!!!!
