Olivia gets more 4-6 “Best Puppy In Show” awards

Bpup was offered on Friday and Saturday of the Timberland Dog show in Chehalis this weekend.

Much to my absolute delight, Olivia won the hound group and a huge Best Puppy In Show with many puppies competing! WOW!

As a breeder and owner, it is such an honor for her to be recognized by so many judges and in such lovely puppy competition. Thank you to judges Mr Michael Savage and Mr Bill Fletcher for choosing Olivia as your “Best puppy”

Callie and Nick’s beagle puppies are 4 weeks old

Callie’s babies are growing like little weeds. They are eating 3 meals a day, and loving their food. They growl and have started to do little barks. I love that they come rushing over whenever I come into the room.

We are de-sensitizing them by playing movies for them like “transformers” and “king kong”. So far they are unphased by the weird and sudden sounds.

Enjoy their photos from this afternoon – they are starting to enjoy small periods of time outside.

Olivia Newton John makes her 4-6 month puppy debut

Olivia (Kazuri’s Summer Lovin’) has just turned 4 months – some AKC shows offer the opportunity to 4-6 month old puppies to compete in a relaxed environment with AKC judges. It’s a great way for them to experience the show environment.

Olivia is out of our homebred dogs Ivy (CH Kazuri’s Tangled Up In Trouble) X Beau (CH Kazuri’s All I Need Is Love and Cake)

Olivia was a little nervous at first but quickly discovered the joy of meeting judges and getting chicken nibbles.

Much to my surprise and delight, she won the Hound group and “Best puppy in show” her first day in the ring under judge Mrs Rhonda  Silveira.

The next day she won the Hound Group under judge Ms Sylvie McGee..

The next day she won Hound Group and her 2nd “Best Puppy in show” under judge Ms Michelle Schultz.

and on the final day, she won Hound Group under judge Mr Bryan Martin.

I am so so proud of this little girl

Callie and Nick’s beagle puppies are 3 weeks old

Time marches on and the babies are here for it all. They are starting to walk around much more and get strength in their legs. They started on puppy mush a few days ago and LOVE eating (no surprise there – haha). They love sleeping on their “big soft” bed and it’s time to start potty box training now that they dont want to potty where they sleep (understandable).

I love these little babies so much – what a joy to see parts and pieces of Callie and Nick in them already.

Another great show weekend for Kazuri beagles

I met up with Malia and Kayla in Chehalis. We took Nick (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGCU ATT TKN BCAT), Savannah (GCHB Kazuri’s Gonna Be Peachy) and Potato (Kazuri N JoyfulNoise Sunshine On A Cloudy Day)

On Friday, Nick won a Hound Group 4 under Mrs Polly (Mrs Robert) D Smith. Potato won BOV in 13s and went on to a OH Hound Group 2 with Nick beside her with an OH Hound group 3 under judge Mr David Denis.

On Saturday, Nick won BOV but didn’t compete in group as I was flying a puppy to his new home in California. Potato won 13 BOV for a major and went on to a regular Hound Group 4 under judge Mrs Terry L Berrios and OH Hound Group 2 under judge Ms Laura Reeves!

On Sunday, Nick won regular Group 1 under judge Mr David Denis and Savannah and Malia won a regular Group 4 beside us. Nick then won OH Hound Group under Mrs Polly (Mrs Robert) D Smith and OH Reserve Best In Show under judge Mr Gary Stiles.

What another wonderful weekend!

Nashville makes his debut at the Beagle National

Nashville (Kazuri N JoyfulNoise Appearing At the Opry) bred by Sarah Sweetman & Dolly Stearns, aged 6 months and a few days, went to the National Beagle Club and competed in the 6-9 month old puppy class for sweeps and the real National. He didn’t end up staying for Beaglefest as he went home with Lisa Young (Denver’s breeder/owner).

It was his first time ever in the ring, and he look it all in stride taking 1st place in his class for both Sweeps, under breeder judge Madeleine Back, and also at NBC under breeder judge Mrs Barbara Scherer, with some lovely comments by both judges.

Thank you to Karen for presenting our litle wild child so well.

Nashville is the son of “Denver” (GCHB Youngsong Sunshine On My Shoulders At Outwest) and “Violet” (CH Kazuri’s Keeping Up Appearances). He is owned by Sarah Sweetman, Lisa Young, Mike and Karen Kurtzner.

And thank you to Jennifer Bell for the ringside photo of Nashville and Karen

Callie and Nick’s beagle puppies have eyes open

We have peepers – it’s always so fun when their eyes open and we know they can start to hear things also.

The noise socialization has begun with playing movies like “Transformer” and “Saving Private Ryan” and “King Kong” for the loud and interesting sounds that play for them.

I love these little puppies. I am so excited to watch them grow up – they have big shoes to fill <3

Callie and Nick’s puppies continue to thrive

Callie is a wonderful momma – they always say good moms are worth their weight in gold and it is so true. Her puppies are gaining weight well and always satisfied. If I pick them up, they are yawning and content. We are doing ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) morning and night.

Beagle puppies are so cute and of course I hope you enjoy their photos from this morning

Callie’s beagle puppies are thriving

Callie is a wonderful mom just like her mom Rosie and her grandmother Madison. I couldn’t ask for anything more than that.

Her milk is already in – not one puppy lost weight and they have all put on over an ounce in 36 hours.

I love these beautiful little pups – yes they all look very similar – look for subtle differences like spots on noses 🙂

Callie and Nick welcome their beagle babies into the world

I was pretty sure Callie would start labor on the Tuesday or Wednesday this week. She was pretty restless Tuesday and so I slept beside her that night.

Wednesday morning she had more signs of labor – some panting, restlessness so I just sat beside her and kept her company. I took her for regular walks – with a towel on me just in case. Her favorite labor stance was on her back with me rubbing her belly.

Around 1:30 pm she started to bark a little bit and her water sac came out – progress – I was relieved that things would now begin.

It wasn’t too long before she started to push a little – nothing too serious but progress. She would push a few times and then sleep for long stretches. This is not super unusual, especially for a first puppy as they have to open that cervix.

She had her first baby – a 9.45oz girl at 5:30pm. I was excited now – things would start ramping up now 🙂

by 7:30pm, with some pushing but no real progress, I called my vet and asked for an evaluation. I kept thinking that if the puppies took this long each time, then we might have some very distressed puppies by the last one. I was also concerned that her tummy was very round still – the best way I could describe it is that it felt like her uterus was so stretched out that they couldn’t move her puppies down.

We made the decision to head to the vet. They were finishing up another surgery and by the time we got in, and they agreed we should do it, it was 4 hours since her last puppy.

Surgery was fast and i helped rouse puppies. One puppy was very stuck in the birth canal – her uterus tore a little when they took him out, and so I was completely relieved we had made this decision.

We have 3 males and 2 females alive and well. Callie came out of surgery well and has taken to her babies so beautifully. I’ll send another update in the next few days.
