Cavalier King Charles puppies turn 5 weeks ~ AKC Woodinville Seattle WA

Our cavalier king charles puppies are growing like weeds – they are now 5 weeks old so very mobile and starting to get into mischief.  They are eating solids although not in any kind of rush to wean off momma Arrow.

Teddy has the biggest personalty – he is an explorer and loves nothing more than to tussle and growl.  Sirius is a snuggler and a little bit of a mommas boy – he is our gentle giant.  Albus is our observer taking it all in before getting in on the action.  He got a cold last week which was a little scary but is doing great again – thank Heavens!

This week we will take them outdoors for some time on the grass – it will be fun to see them explore somewhere new and gather some different sensory experiences.  we will also set up the play space now that they are interacting with their environment more.

Cavalier King Charles Puppies are here!

Arrow had her puppies today!!  It all happened rather fast with her temperature dropping last night and then starting labor about 7:45am and the first baby arriving shortly after.

Unfortunately, the first delivery, while it went smoothly, Arrow whelped a puppy girl that presented with some development issues – we rushed her and Arrow to the vet but she could unfortunately not be saved.   The vet assured us that we didn’t do anything wrong and that the placement of her egg/placenta probably didn’t allow her the right amount of nutrients to grow properly.   We will forever be grateful to the team at Companion Vet clinic in Snohomish for the care and support they gave to us.

While upset, Brianna was a trooper and held her as she passed, and we named her “Cherry” as we will bury her under a cherry tree later today.

Arrow started to push again, and within the next hour, she gave birth to 3 healthy baby boys.

Momma and the 3 boys are doing great – Arrow has taken to her new role as momma with enthusiasm – its hard to convince her to eat or go potty – luckily she is only 12 lbs and so easy to carry outside for a quick break.

we will provide updates as they grow – we are already so smitten 🙂

Cavalier puppies ~ they are nearly here

This morning we got Arrow’s xray done to know how many babies to expect on the big day.  I don’t like to leave it to chance incase something goes wrong.

So, we confirmed Arrow is expecting 4 today.  Now the waiting game begins 🙂

A normal average gestation for dogs is 63 days after ovulation.  I have heard that Cavaliers tend to give birth between day 58-60 so that would be early next week.  I’ll of course keep you posted

Cavalier Puppies are nearly here

Miss Arrow’s pregnancy has flown by so fast and we are now about 2 ish weeks away from meeting our little cavalier babies.  Arrow looks amazing – until you pull back her hair, its hard to tell she is pregnant at all.  But when you do, there is definitely a belly 🙂

Next week we will do an xray and see how many to expect.  I cant wait to announce their safe arrival 🙂

Great news! Cavalier King Charles Puppies are on the way!

Kazuri is thrilled to announce that we today confirmed that Arrow is pregnant via ultrasound.

We approached the amazing Marybeth from Embee Cavaliers in Ontario Canada about using her beautiful boy “Loki” (CH Embee’s Mischief Managed) as a match for Arrow.  Not only is Loki beautiful and has a wonderful disposition, but has passed his health testing (including the same kind of MRI Arrow had done) with flying colors.

We have been lucky enough to see some of the puppies he has already produced and they are gorgeous.  To say we are excited about these potential puppies is an understatement.

The litter is due at the end of June, so stay tuned for the announcement sometime around then.   While Arrow and Loki are both black and tan, they carry the white gene and so could produce any of the 4 cavalier colors.

Beagle puppies are 6 weeks ~ Woodinville Seattle AKC

The beagle babies are 6 weeks today – I can hardly believe we have known these little (orI guess now big) babies for 1 1/2 months.

They are spending more and more supervised time outdoors – they live to play and explore (and chew sticks).   They have mastered going up and down stairs – i am constantly amazed at how fast they are – there is no where in our house they haven’t explored now 🙂

Maddy is too kind to wean herself, so i designed a nipple-hider for her so she can play with them without them nursing.  It seems to be doing the trick 🙂

Enjoy the latest pictures – they are candids taken in the yard this morning 🙂

The babies are 3 weeks today – they are all a little more mobile and starting to potty themselves so we started introducing the potty training box.  They have used a little so that’s a great start.

They ate food for the first time yesterday – they were a little confused, but I am sure they will start to get the hang of it.

They are growing well – little chunky monkeys 🙂

Girl 1 – 3 lb 2.6oz

Girl 2 – 3lb 3.4 oz

Boy 1 – 3lb 9.3oz

Boy 2 – 3lb 3.6oz

Enjoy these latest pictures of them 🙂

MRI Health Testing on Arrow ~ the results are in

As you know, health testing is just as important to me (as a breeder) as beauty and temperament.  I take my job as a breeder seriously, and I believe that if I am going to add dogs to the world, I want it to be done so with careful thought.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels can have issues with SM (Syringomyelia) in their brain.   The only way to detect it is with a MRI.  So Alisha and I decided that we wanted to scan Arrow before we bred her.    We flew her up to the amazing team at Thames Valley Veterinary Services in Ontario Canada.

I am so glad we did – no SM was detected in her brain at all – what a wonderful health clearance we have!!!   Now, on to breeding her 🙂
