Who remembers Hunter???

Bhailekernon Glory Hunter

Hunter started his show journey as a baby puppy and quickly lived up to his name going for glory winning many prestigious awards but maybe a lack of experience on my part it was to much to soon for him and he decided he hated dog shows before he got out of puppy class.
So after 2 and a half years out of the show ring, giving him time to grow and mature he made his return. In very good company Hunter won Green Star Dog and Best of Breed under Ms Sinead Taggart.
We won’t be rushing Hunter this time as we want him to enjoy the shows and even if he never wins another award as Hunters Breeders we’re incredibly proud of him getting over the line and winning BOB at Coleraine Championship show.
Congratulations to all other winners/exhibitors and to the committee for another well run show.

Apologies for polluting everyone’s feed about Basti but we’re just very proud of his career and now that this chapter is over for him we want to put it out there for something we can always look back on.

Thank you to Francesco Zerbi of Italian Bad boys Bullmastiffs for Breeding this special dog and allowing us to have Basti.

But how good do ‘Klo and Buzz’ babies look??

The miniature longhaired dachshund have a completely different character than what we’re used to in the Smooth and Wirehaired
Dachshund’s.
So gentle and affectionate..

Just over 7 weeks old now, they begin to fly the nest on Saturday to some incredibly lucky families.

We look forward to seeing how these puppies grow.
