Puppies from Bastaway Kennels

  
Whoa, they are pretty cute!!!  Here are some pups from Blastaway Kennels in Oregon.  It is a great Kennel with years of breeding experience and a list of champion dogs.  They are all girls, and one of them will have a new home today, but I don't know which one.  

If you are interested, get ahold of me and I will pass your info along to them.

But I think I have made up my mind, that we are gonna have another litter this winter.  So if you want a Clover pup, you wont have to wait much longer!!

Petiquette

I was checking out the latest Dog Annual Magazine (Official Publication of the CKC) and I came across some basic ideas of pet-etiquette.  
I thought I would share them, but keep in mind, they aren't all awesome!

Petiquette for Dogs:
(1) A well trained dog barks two to three times maximum at things of interest.  
Anything beyond that is excessive

(2) A well trained dog knows that it is not his right to "say hello" to every dog he sees.  A well trained dog understands that it is both rude and dangerous to rush up to a strange dog without warning.

(3) A well trained dog can sit quietly and calmly when his owners are busy.  Does not require constant stimulation and entertainment.



Petiquette for Humans:
(1) A responsible dog owner does not allow a dog to jump up on anyone, human or animal.

(2) A responsible dog owner gives treats to other dogs only after asking permission.  Some dogs are on dietary restrictions and unapproved treats could be unsafe.

Cousin Sylvia

Cousin? Sister from another mother? 
Keep an eye out for Sylvia, she is out and about in East Van.
She is from a litter of Hope (Clovers sister) and Rocky (Stud of our Litter #2).
