Ryder and Phoenix Puppies!

      Just had a sanity check, yes, we did do two litters this year! We are still busy with 3 of Kwill's babies, Tip, Dash and Twist. Dash and Tip would both like to find nice homes, but meanwhile they are learning manners and playing with Primo, the Afghan puppy. Every once in a while they pause from their play when they hear the sounds of puppies in the adjoining room and run to the gate to see if they can catch a glimpse of their new cousins. But no one has really seen these babies except me and Liz when she came home last week until now....so without further ado, we would like to introduce our new

BAD MOM!

      Yes, I admit it, I am a bad mom!! I have had pictures for 3 days now to put up and I have left them where I don't have access, each time I have thought of updating the blog. I assume that readers are checking in for "fresh puppy breath" and they are going to be treated to this rambling monologue! I will tell you that the puppies are doing awesome and have all begun little training regimes that include walking on a leash, coming when called, sitting, downing and standing! They are all little stars and seem very eager to learn. They have received their second puppy vaccines. Ears are being a little more cooperative with teething, although I saw Miss Flip's last week and we had to do an "ear emergency" on her. I showed her mom how to massage the ears along the natural fold to encourage them to stay folded.
     Those on Facebook have been able to see a preview of the new puppy photos and also follow some of the other pups in their new homes. If you are not on a friend on facebook and would like to be, just email me.
      This week we are looking forward to a new arrival! "Primo", "Alphaville's No Doubt" will be joining the family. Primo is a 10 week old black and tan Afghan Hound puppy who will come to us from Yvonne Ljungkvist and Alphaville Kennels in Sweden. Now Brownie, the rescue Border Collie will not be the only dog with a tail in the house! We think that the pups will enjoy playing with their new brother. There aren't many dogs as agile as an Aussie, but being a previous Afghan mom I can tell you the afghan is probably it's match! Now some people have the incorrect assumption that Afghans are not very smart. This is totally wrong as Afghans are extremely smart..as in learn it one time and I will do it again smart. You have to be on your toes as they are growing up so they learn the right way! I will post some pictures of Primo later this week so you can all admire him :-)!
        We still have the 2 boys available. Please email us if you are interested. Liz has always been torn about Dash, really wanting to keep him, but knowing he should probably go to a new home. But just in case he stays...we have been searching for a name for him. I would invite you to please send us any suggestions for call names or registered names for him. Since he looks so much like his grandfather, Khaos, we have been trying to come up with name similar in line with Khaos and Eclectic Alchemy.
   I hear by do promise those new puppy pictures as soon as possible!!

Remy and Kwill Puppies are 10 weeks old today!!!

       A lot has happened in the last couple weeks. It kind of feels like we have been through a whirlwind. The puppies have had lots of socialization and interaction with new people. They have all demonstrated the ability to take things in stride and adapt to their new surroundings. The reports from those in their new homes also reflect this to be true.
      New play time will also consist of challenges that allow puppies to make choices and develop good learning behaviors. We want to nurture natural drives and encourage curiosity. We will try to build confidence by creating successful situations for them to engage with us individually.
      Now that they are leaving the cute fuzzy puppy stage behind and beginning to enter the long legged stage toward the 12 week period, we offer some stacked shots below!! 

 This is Zoom, one of the natural "Stacking Stars" on the table. By the time you read this he will in his new home with Lacey!

      Mr Tip, another Stacking Star! But I believe he will do well in everything he attempts. Very Personable, biddable and drivey. Tip is looking for the right home!

This is "Twist" and I can tell you she was no Angel to stack! Do I see little horns??? Twist is staying at Arcoiris and I can tell you Liz has her work cut out for her!!!

 

                Miss Dip is a delight to photograph in case you were wondering :-)! She is a busy girl, but is very biddable. (She will work for Cheese!) Unless of course something very fast happens by, say a car driving by...she turned her head to watch every car that came down the road and watched them until they were gone.  

In this picture she is actually leaning back on her hocks as she follows the "cheese"! She reminds me of a little dancing bear!                                                             

  

 

    

Dip is staying with us for a couple extra weeks and then will be leaving for Florida!

Dash is very sweet and available! Please contact us to discuss him or Tip!

The week ahead for the puppies will consist of play, play and more play!!! More leash training, crate training 201 and the second set of puppy vaccines!!

Until next week,

janine

A Busy Week!!

      We have had a very busy week!! The pups have been able to chill out and play...while we have been running almost nonstop....plus factor in all the time we have to get in for puppy socialization and play...even when it is midnight or 6am and you are very tired... the pups must play!!
       The puppies all made a trip to the dog show this weekend and they met and made many new friends! We did well at the show with Spell going Winners Bitch for 2 majors out of the Bred By Class and a Reserve Winners Bitch. Fever went Best Of Opposite Sex at two of the shows. Also in the Altered Breed Ring, Chant took home a Winners Dog plus a couple reserves! In the Rally Ring, Seorus, (owned and trained by Linda Butterworth) finished his Rally Excellent Legs going  High In Trial, High In Trial Aussie! Three of Liz's obedience students also took home some placements and Rally titles! Congratulations to Beth & Izzie, Kim & Rookie and Lacey with Lola and Jackson!!
      
      To Update on the puppies!!!

        Flip, has gone home to live with Beth (who also has Izzie). She is now known as "Miss Flip" and is enjoying her new home. Beth has quickly learned that these puppies are super confident and there is no obstacle too big....10 steps...no problem, out side through the door with the big dogs? No problem...I said if you think she can't do it...she will be able to! She is keeping Beth on her toes and a smile on Beth's face! She looks forward to some Obedience and Rally in her future!
       Zip, Is now "Falkor", Arcoiris Never Ending Story! He has gone home with Linda Butterworth to join her crew and be a future star in the Obedience, Rally, Agility and maybe even the Breed Ring! Linda will keep him on his toes as she is an excellent dedicated trainer who does really amazing things with all her dogs!
       Snap, now "Nova"  is settling in nicely in her new home. She is giving Kelly's Sheba Enu a run for hr money and by the looks of the video and photo, they are now best buddies!! If I can figure out how to transfer them from my phone...I will put them up.
       Zoom will be leaving Friday for his new home with Lacey (Lola and Jackson)!! We are very pleased and excited to see him go to such a great home, as all the puppies have. We look forward to seeing him in Obedience, Rally, the Breed ring and maybe even Agility (no Pressure Lacey! LOL!).
       Dip is going to Sarah in Florida! She will be excelling (we know:-)) in Agility in the future and keeping Sarah and her family on their toes...she is very bright and drivey!! She is also a very funny girl! She will be leaving us in about 3 weeks after her mom returns from CPE Nationals!
       Tip is available to a performance/ active home. He is very smart, biddable, drivey, sweet and lovable!
       Dash is available. He is smart, loving and very correct. He is also a little quieter, but being an Aussie we all know that still means smart and busy! He reminds us of a little "Khaos" in black, his Grandfather.
       Twist is staying here at Arcoiris. She is now "Arcoiris UnExpected Twist". Please look for her in the breed ring in the fall/winter.

   Anyone who is interested in Tip Or Dash, please contact me by email  marehaven@netzero.net

We are hoping for pictures outside this week! Second vaccines next week

Quick puppy update!

        Today all puppies made the 2 hour drive to the Cerf clinic at the Greentown, Indiana show, hosted by the Kokomo Kennel Club. Eye checks were done by Board Certified Ophthalmologist, Dr. Wendy Townsend, School Of Veterinary Medicine, Purdue University.

 I am pleased to report that all puppies were clear! 

      The journey was uneventful and they had a nice longer crate ride than they did to the Temperament testing last week. We did say goodbye to "Snap", who is now "Nova/Cutie". Her new family met us at the clinic and since we were letting puppies go home next weekend, we decided to let them take her home, rather than have them make the even longer drive to pick her up next weekend. It was a pleasure to finally meet Kelly and her husband Mark. They have 2 young sons and Nova was an instant hit! 

"Arcoiris Gypsy Girl Nova"

  Parting with the puppies can be a difficult time for us, as well as the puppies. It was nice to see how Nova was just as content to be in Kelly's arms as she always has been in ours. That made it a lot easier.  We try very hard to make sure the right puppy goes home with the right new mom and dad and we think Nova is now going to be a very spoiled, loved little girl! We look forward to many years of stories and updates!
