Ozzy has been shown only a couple of times post his CH title. So, we were thrilled to have him finish his GCH title this weekend with his 5th major and ch defeat. Amazingly, the judge, Ms. Marilyn Van Vleit, who finished him, was the same judge that finished his CH title last year. She sure is consistent.
I am so proud of Tesla for finishing this accomplishment.
Ozzy is “Kazuri N Joyful Noise Just Over The Rainbow” bred/owned by Sarah Sweetman & Dolly Stearns and co-owned and loved by Tesla Sabatier.
The cavalier babies from both Tori and Paige’s litters wanted to wish everyone a happy, healthy 4th of July on this 250th anniversary of the USA’s independence.
The babies have been listening to firework sounds for weeks and as expected had no problems sleeping through the festivities.
Remember how I told you they were sleepy little lumps? Yup – still that 🙂 hahaha. In all honesty, they do get up on their feet and walk around like little drunk soldiers, and are starting to growl and chew on each other – but they are pretty calm and lazy if given no incentive to get up.
We have tried mushy food this week – they think it is interesting but so far just a few licks and tastes – I think next week Paige will come out more and more and force them to start enjoying their meals more.
Enjoy the photos of these precious little lump cavaliers 🙂

My parent’s and brother are visiting from NZ for a few weeks. I have been enjoying time with them all of course. One of the things my brother and I like to do is go for walks and talks. Tonight, we went a new route and found a little patch of wild daisys. I told him – lets run home and get the cavaliers and take their photos for this week there! SO thats what we did.
The puppies didn’t really want to be on my little stool – we were in a new environment with loads of smells and great things to look at, but I can’t help but think they turned out great regardless.
I am just going to post the full gallery – I wonder if you can tell which cavalier puppy is which yet 🙂
Hint: Salsa has a little cheek crescent, Tamale has half a brown face and half white, Nacho has a little healing cut on his leg, and Pico is of course a Tri. 🙂 That leaves you with Churro who looks like a dainty bean, and Taco who has the most white on him 🙂

It is time for us to do my favorite chair photos – who doesnt love an adorable cavalier puppy on a bright blue chair? I know I do.
They are 7 weeks old – we did their Volhard temperament testing (click the link to learn more about what this is). I will write a basic update on each puppy with their photos. Please note that there is no “right” or “wrong” for their temperament test – each puppy has a baseline that is unique and can give us some insight on how to best place them and also what areas we can focus on in our training.
Enjoy their 7 week old photos on the blue chair.
Salsa – she was friendly with strangers and quick to forgive. will make a super companion for a family or busy home i think
Churro – more gentle and a watcher rather than a bold “do-er” – she was not a fan of the loud noise and went and hid – i think a more quiet family will be good for her. She will need to have lots of socialization
Pico – she was friendly but not needing approval or attention from our tester. The loud noise scared her but she recovered quickly. I think she could go to a busy or more quiet home – either are places she can thrive
Nacho – very gentle boy who didn’t like the loud noise or the moving towel. He recovered slower than I would like but when picked up and soothed he was fine. He is a total lap dog and would do great in a situation where he can be with his person/people a lot of the day
Tamale –
Taco – eager to follow and meet people. Loud noise made him scared but he recovered quickly. Didn’t like the paw squeeze at all. I have my eye on him as a potential show prospect.

Paige is such a great mom – the puppies are fat and healthy and almost a little lazy. With their ears and eyes open, they should be wanting to explore more and play wrestle. Her babies are always sleeping 🙂 haha. Full round tummies and happy hearts
Enjoy these photos – I feel a bit bad that they are pretty similar to last week – except they are bigger 🙂 haha. I wont complain about happy healthy content cavalier puppies
Enjoy their 3 week old photos

Now that she has nursing down pat, Miss Paige’s babies are thriving. Their tummies are always full and round, just how we like them.
Their eyes and ears have opened up and so we have started playing movies with unexpected noises in the background of their whelping pen – like Teminator or King Kong or even Saving Private Ryan. These sounds in a safe and secure environment with mama, allow the puppies to start understanding that loud or unexpected noises aren’t always need for being scared.

Tori’s puppies are finally eating 3 good meals a day – I find that as they gain confidence in eating on their own, they also grow confidence in life. When they play outdoors now, they are excited to get out and about and explore.
We are starting to see little hints of personality come forth which is really fun too. Salsa and Tamale are the boldest and first to explore while Nacho is always scrambling to be on my knee. Miss Pico is a little more independent and Churro and Taco like to hang back and watch. We shall see more information as they have their Volhard temperament test next week.
Enjoy the photos from this week – they wanted to explore these rocks so badly, and not just sit on them for photos. I am starting to wonder if my days of taking photos of them by themselves are coming to an end.
Enjoy the 6 week photos of Tori and Charlie’s little love nuggets.

I couldnt be more proud of this boy if i tried – he showed his heart out and won both beagle specialty shows this weekend amongst some lovely and deserving competition.
This makes it his 3rd and 4th beagle specialty in 2026.
Thank you to the judges Mr Joseph Buchanan & Mrs Jocelyn Gagne for awarding Nick this weekend.
A special shout out to Nick’s niece Potato, shown by co-owner Kayla Bonnin who won 13s in both specialty shows and went BOSS to Nick at both also. I am so proud of both of these dogs, bred and co-owned by myself, and both owner handled.
I will do a separate post about all the other dogs that did amazing things this weekend also <3
