Greenstone Mystic Moon and Greenstone Thunder -New photos

Hello Folks

New photos of Greenstone Mystic Moon arrived in the mail yesterday, she is nine months old in the photos, and she is certainly coming into herself. Love your darker coloring, and her dewclaws. Got a new photo of Greenstone Thunder, all hard working and dusty from his sheep dog training, but looking very content indeed. Thunder is a year and half.

Mystic is being actively trained in Agility, and doing very well in it, can't wait to see her in the rings next year. She travels with her owner to trials across the US and into Canada now, she has seen more of the eastern coast line then most humans :)

The dogs are doing great, and really enjoying the wonderful weather, we have been spending a great deal of time outside, but our other project, is that we are finally working on building new little "dog rooms" in the attached " Dog room", off the kitchen, and we have finished one of the planned four, I am still painting, (tons of painting to do this year), and we need to lay the new floor for the second "small dog room", but we got the second hand dog chairs (really cushy rocker chairs) and extra's in the room, and the dogs love it.. Inside, they have their chairs, toys and play area etc, and they have their own outside pop out door, to their outside dog yard..

It will be a great help when the females all come into heat, normally I have to play ring around the crates, having some out in the kitchen and some in the living room, while the others are in the same rooms but in crates, I am hopeful that if I have done this right, that we will be able to allow the dogs much more freedom even while in heat while still maintaining control and therefor no unplanned breedings etc, and anything that makes the dogs happier and more content, makes me happier.

I have been sick now for close to two weeks and it just seems to be dragging on, I really want to be better soon! Everyone that has had this says it takes about three weeks to a month to kick totally, and it appears that it will be taking just as long for myself.

So we have a dog show coming this weekend, Sat and Sunday only, looking forward to it, we will be having Greenstone Alexander the Great and Greenstone Black Pearl out, we are cancelling the shows for the kennel at the Ottawa show, in order to pick up a extra show weekend in June. Updates to come on that in the near future.

Otherwise, life is normal and we will talk to you all soon, for all you puppy to be owners, I promise I am checking my girls daily, and will let you all know as soon as possable when the females come into heat.. I am expecting any day now.. the sooner the better :)
