Watching…waiting….a watched pot never boils over right?

She’s sleeping a lot right now and we are glad to let her do it.  The puppies are all well formed and now just waiting for the right time to be born.  Today marks day 60 since ovation or 59 days since her first breeding.  Dogs can whelp from day 58 – 64 so we are confident there will be puppies sometime this week.

We are taking Maddy’s temperature daily – when it drops from 99 – 101 to below 98 we know that there will be babies on the way soon.

I’ll be in touch with the happy news 🙂

Beagle Puppy Xray

About a week before whelping, I like to do an xray to get an idea of how many beagle puppies we are expecting. That way, if labor stops and you know there is a puppy or two left, we can call for help and intervention (if need be)

We did a top view and side view. You can see the little skeletons – they kind of look like little lizards don’t they 🙂

From the top view, we can clearly see 4 – two on each side. From the side view, it almost looks like a 5th is tucked up by her leg. Or maybe that’s just a shadow. Either way, we are excited that there will be 4-5 puppies coming soon.
Of course, we need to get them safely into the world – so much can go wrong, and so we are hoping and praying for a safe delivery of all of them, no matter how many or few there are.

Beagle Puppies are on the way

We here at Kazuri are excited to announce the upcoming litter of Maddy and Slugger.  This is a line breeding and includes some gorgeous dogs on both sides.  I am excited to see what these two produce.

Due Mid April.  We will do an x-ray early April to confirm how many we are expecting.

Puppy Sitting

Its been over a year and a half since we had a litter of puppies so when Alisha from Lockestar Cavaliers contacted me about socializing her recent litter, we jumped at the chance.  These puppies’ mom is Arrow’s sister Penny.

Baylea, Kinzie and Dollar were a little timid at first but it didn’t take them long to get used to the “small humans” in our home 🙂

What fun to have these little puppies in our home for the week!

Happy Birthday Stella

Happy Happy 1st Birthday Stella (Kazuri’s When you wish upon a star). I remember the day you were born – all 5 oz of you. You had a slow start, but you made up with it quickly being 1 pound on day 8. You were always a clown and a delight to have in the house. We are so blessed you found your forever home with Michelle & Mike, Olivia, Jericho, Gracie and Marley. xoxo

Maddy gets a Group 4

Getting Best of Breed is an honor.  Once you are the best in your breed, you get to show against the best in breed in all the other breeds in your group.

For beagles, they are a hound and so go back into the ring with the best of breeds such as Afgans, Deerhounds, Bassets, Dachshunds, Whippets, Greyhounds….well you get the idea.  🙂  There are a lot of amazing dogs in the same ring.

Well today, Maddy got 4th place in Hound group – how exciting for us!!  We are well on our way to our Canadian CH title.
