What's New?

Changes and news of 2009

• 26th of July 2010
  New pictures of our little white baby Dawnville Just A Flirt. She's exactly 3 weeks of age today and sooooo funny :-)  She already wants to walk outside the puppy pen so it will not be too long before she finds her way out of her "prison".
  Megan can't wait to run and play with her ;-)
  We finally went to a show again since the end of June.... special show of the German Sheltie Club and Mr.Brian Hull from England (Lizmark Shelties) was the judge.  All results can be found on our Showresults page but we want to make special mention of our little wild teenager Megan (Dawnville Honey I'm Home) who at her 2nd show ever (1st time out of puppy) won a class of 11 bitches and her 1st German Junior CAC.

  New pictures of Flirt's baby. She's doing very well and getting more pretty by the day. As from today her eyes have started to open so hopefully we will find out the colour of her eyes in a few days, can't wait!
  Not much else to report, we have had some quiet days. Next week we will have a show again for the first time since the beginning of July so we might update Flirt's puppy page after the weekend.

• 10th of July 2010
  Several pages updated. New pictures of the puppy of Trae en Funny.  Cleo is 6 weeks of age already again and a real little fury. Not impressed very easily and she truly knows what she wants. Hopefully she will continue to develop as nice as she does now and who knows we might see her at the shows some day?
  Flirt's baby was also born and again a singleton blue girl but she is mostly white and has a blue merle head and some small body spots. She is a really gorgeous little puppy but ofcourse not suitable to show. This puppy can be found at Flirt's puppy page.  Tia's puppies were still born and must have died a little while ago, Tia has a lot of problems with the heat but if that has been the reason????
  
  Furthermore we have received loads of different pictures again of different dogs. One of them is Hero of the Golden Fir, a son of Howar and just like him very fanatic in everything he does. He enjoys his agility and is quite succesfull at it. Below some pictures of Hero:

We also received pictures from Irene Kruiswijk from Ch.Dawnville Gee I'm Handsome Too, "Vincent" is 13 years already again and a son of Ch.Dawnville Darn Handsome who's 14 1/2 years of age and still going strong.
Here's Vince's picture:

Ozzy (Dawnville He's Got That Bling) has been to another show again, his latst one in Puppyclass as they are now 9 months of age. He won Best Sheltie Puppy and 3rd Best Puppy in Show and below some pictures of him at the show.

The weather here is very hot and on a few of these hot days Perry and Howard enoyed themselves chasing the waterhose. We can not do them a bigger favour than to turn on the water :-)  They have the biggest fun and get more fanatic each minute.
Here are some pictures of Perry, not very sharp pictures but those of Howard were even a bigger failure ....

  Lots of updates on several pages.  We have added new showresults and a new title for Boots, she now is a Dutch Champion.
  A new picture of Megan has been added to her page, she is finally growing a coat so we took advantage of it to show how she has grown up so far. We are more than pleased with how she looks.
  
  We have a litter of one - seems to run in the family to have 1 the first time as both her sisters Aspen and Tinsel did the same - by Ch.Trae out of Dawnville Accents in Blue, you can see the puppy here.
  We also have news from the litters we are expecting, we had an ultrasound made for Flirt and according the vet she was not in whelp. We had our doubts but couldn't see or feel anything on her. Yesterday we found out for sure she is in whelp and even though it might only be one, we are pleased she is not having a phantom pregnancy like we thought for a long time. 
  Now we are sure about her pregnancy, we have added the male to whom she was mated to our expected page.
  
  Since our last update we have lost our beloved old man Ch.Faradale Frisbee for Grandgables, he has moved to our in memoriam page and we made a page for a few of his children.
  We have added another dog which we bred to our males page, he is not available yet but hopefully will be by the end of the year. He is Megan's litterbrother Dawnville He's Go That Bling (Ozzy) and now also has his own page.

  Most important news of this past few weeks: Daizie arrived from Australia!  Daizie is perhaps better known as Austr.Ch.Scotsdream Hevenly Daize and we can not thank Liz enough for her trust in us to send her here!
  Within a few days she was settled and also attended her first show where she won Best of Breed and a group 3rd!  We are sure we are going to have a great time with her both in and out of the ring, she's such a sweetheart :-)

  Daizie enjoying the snow, she landed from summer into the mid of the winter ...... Thank you Liz, Rebecca and family!

  We did 3 shows the past 3 weekends, all results can be found on our results page.

  Last week we got a picture that means a lot to us:

  This are two sons of a couple that we have to miss for some time already again but are still in our thoughts every single day: Ch.Mister Magoo of Blue Tails and Ch.Dawnville Tri 'n Stop Me. Left: Dawnville High Hopes of Davey G&G3 Right: Dawnville Highway Patrolman These gentleman are 12 years of age by now and when we got this picture I got tears in my eyes because they have so many features of their sire Scott whom I still miss so much..

  Haven't updated this pages for a while as we have just been too busy with other things. We also did not have much to tell about....

From Finland we got this lovely picture of Howard's son: Happy Master's My Kind of Guy at 5 months of age.

We are proud that in the short period Howie stayed in Finland he has left some children behind that made his time there well worth it.

Last week we got the hip results back of Flirt and Tia. They both have A hips so we couldn't ask for more. Tempo's daughter Dawnville Don't BetYa Boots On it was also graded with A as was Trae's daughter Anahera from Marmorea's Shelter.

We received this beautiful picture of Trae's daughter Be My Blue ID from Marmorea's Shelter (Anais), Thank You Sylvia!

We visited Howard's babies at Little But Brave and they were cute :-)  Hard to choose between them but their breeder made their choice and one of the blue girls is staying.
The whole litter was clear of CEA.

2 january 2010:
Good news from Australia: Aspen (Austr.Ch.Dawnville Ashes In The Wind - HIC) wins an All Breed Best in Show!!!!!!  We are so proud of what she is doing and thank Liz for loving her and taking such good care of 'our' Princess.
