Ruby and Piper’s cavalier puppies play in the garden

It was a lovely spring day (yes, I am excited that it is officially spring) and so we took some photos in the green garden.

These little cavalier pups are heading to their first opthlamologist appointment this week to have an eye check – then they will see a cardiologist too. This is standard procedure for all Kazuri cavalier puppies so we have all the information we need before they set off to their forever homes.

These pups have the most amazing families waiting to bring these sweet little pups home.

Manny (Piper x Tater Tot) 10 weeks

Holly (Charlie x Ruby) 9 weeks

Mistletoe (Charlie x Ruby) 9 weeks

The Cavalier puppies have their Blue Chair Shoot

Anyone who follows me knows how much I love the blue chair as it makes every puppy’s color pop – I just love photos taken on it.

Manny is 9 weeks now and Mistletoe and Holly are 8 weeks. It felt like a good time to take their photos.

In the coming weeks, they will have their opthamologist and cardiologist appointments (Standard go home protocol for my ckcs puppies) and start learning how to crate train. I am amazed at how fast these weeks start to go as we enjoy them so much.

The cavalier puppies love playing outside

Manny, Holly and Mistletoe are growing so fast. They are learning new skills like teetering on uneven surfaces, navigating stairs, following when we call, and eating on their own (yes this is a skill they have to learn).

The weather is mild this week so they have been able to play outside without their little jackets on – they are SO happy! They run around and chew on each other’s ears and tails – more than anything, it is delightful to see their happy little bounces as they enjoy the fresh air.

All three are social and happy. Their little personalities are starting to emerge. I cant wait to see the results of their Volhard tests and see how right I am about their baseline.

We have one ruby cavalier girl available to the right home. She is more reserved in nature – friendly, but likes to watch rather than initiate. I think she would do amazing in a home where she is the 2nd dog, to follow, or with a more quiet home that wants a snuggle bug.

The Cavalier pups are integrating into our life here at Kazuri

We do not have a “Kennel” – our dogs are our home pets and part of our family. So, our puppies are raised as much as we can with our family. As the puppies get old enough, they start to meet the older dogs, have time inside playing with toys and outside when it’s not too cold. They have even been watching Nick during his treadmill sessions to keep fit – I like to think of them as his little cheerleaders.

Enjoy the photos of them integrating into life at Kazuri

Piper and Ruby’s Cavalier puppies are growing

Pipers little Manny is 6 weeks old and Ruby’s girls Mistletoe and Holly are 5 weeks old. They are enjoying three meals a day and are getting very good at using their potty box, so their play area is staying nice and clean.

It is fun to see their little personalities starting to emerge. Manny is very outgoing – he has started to growl which sounds like a little trill from a chipmonk. He thinks he is very tough, but melts when you pick him up.

Mistletoe and Holly have started to play too, but are much more laid back than their “brother”. I think Holly is the most laid back right now, but that can easily change as they are exposed to new experiences coming up.

We play movies for them through the day – Jurassic park, Transformers, Saving Private Ryan – anything with loud, strange sounds so they think those noises are normal and not scary.

I am so pleased with these sweet babies – I am so thankful they are healthy and happy little ones.

Piper and Ruby’s pups are doing awesome

Piper and Ruby’s cavalier puppies are growing so well – both moms are calm and settled, and take very good care of their charges. I have to smile that both girls made a little version of themselves despite the fact that I bred them both to dogs that were different colors to them 🙂

I hope you enjoy these updated photos of them

Merry Christmas from Kazuri

The stockings have been opened from Santa Paws and the pups all had a blast opening them and enjoying the gifts inside.

Our dogs are house pets first and foremost and so having them as part of our Christmas celebrations is not even a question.

We hope you have had a wonderful Christmas day full of love and joy.

Charlie gets his first points

I am so proud of Mr Charlie who won WD/BOW on Friday under judge Yvonne Savard and then reserve on Saturday on Mrs. Carol C Sommerfelt and then WD again on Sunday under judge  Mr. Gary Stiles.

Charlie (Kazuri’s The Mystery of Hope) is owned by me (Sarah Sweetman) and was bred by Becky Smith & Sue Savage Green. I am very thankful to them for trusting me with this sweet boy. Thank you to Cheyenne from Sirius handling for taking Charlie to these shows when I couldn’t attend.

New cavalier puppies

There is nothing I love more than to celebrate with others and build community as we love and try to do right by these beautiful dogs we are entrusted with.

I had the honor of placing and co-owning Stella (CH Kazuri’s Diamond In The Sky) with Emma and Amie Adams who have been showing cavaliers longer than I have but never leapt into the breeding side of things. When they mentioned they wanted to start breeding, I was honored to work with them and it has been a pleasure to co-breed a litter and walk them through all the parts from breeding to whelping to dew claws and more.

They are doing a phenomenal job and I am so proud of them. The sire is their lovely boy Granger (GCH BeckWith If the Boot Fits).

Callie wins BOV/BOSS at the Midwest Regional Beagle Specialty

I travelled to Amana Iowa to attend “Beaglefest” early Sept and had so much fun meeting fanciers i have “met” online but actually getting to sit and chat with them in person. It was fun to be in the ring with so many amazing dogs and people. There was so much comradery and laughter – everything community and competition should be. If anyone is thinking about going, I would say “do it”.

My little 13 inch beagle Callie (GCHB Kazuri’s Everything’s Sugar N Spice DCAT FDC) won Best of Variety in 13s under respected breeder judge Dr Oleg N Voloshin Ph.D. She went on to win BOSS to the lovely Victor who won 15s. I was thrilled to be in the ring with Victor and be awarded beside him.

Callie also won Select B under Dr. Camille McArdle D.V.M at the Amana Hound Show.

This little spice girl is my heart and soul and she’s not always easy to show, but always gives it her all. She also ran 6 Fast cat runs completing her DCAT and getting many points towards her FCAT.

Callie is owner/breeder shown and I am so thankful to Liz for letting me use Arthur for my Rosie girl. (CH Bill T’s August Rush to Alpenglow x CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Coming up Roses)
