2023 Recap – what an incredible year.

What an INCREDIBLE year indeed. Here is a recap of it all. I have SO much to be thankful for – most of all for my beagle and cavalier community – I couldn’t have done any of this without you all.

Nick – MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT finished the year as the #1 15 inch beagle for the 2nd year. He was recognized at the 2023 National Beagle Club as People’s Choice as voted by fellow breeders. He is in semi-retirement and will show in select shows in 2024 and beyond. We are also thrilled that he had 6 more of his progeny finish their CH titles and several others are close to finishing. These six gives him 12 CH get already. I am so thankful to the breeders who incorporated Nick into their program and am excited to see what happens next.

We had several champion beagles

McKinley – CH Kazuri’s Aint No Mountain High Enough (CH The Whims Legato x CH Hailstorm’s Feeling A Little Foxy at Kazuri)

Callie – CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Sugar N Spice (CH Bill T’s Rush to Alpenglow X CH Kazuri’s Everythings Coming Up Roses). She finished in the 13 inch TOP 20 for 2023

Murphy – CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Gonna Be Alright (CH Bill T’s Rush to Alpenglow X CH Kazuri’s Everythings Coming Up Roses) – lovingly owned by Sarah Smith-Falkner and Sarah Sweetman

Darwin – CH Kazuri’s While Dreams of Finches Danced In His Head (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X CH Kazuri’s Dreaming of An Emmy)

Buck – CH Kazuri’s Call of the Wild (GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin’ Up Trouble X CH Kazuri’s Feeling The Siren’s Call)

Ivy – CH Kazuri’s Tangled Up In Trouble (GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin’ Up Trouble X CH Kazuri’s Feeling The Siren’s Call)

Nova – CH Kazuri’s All I Want is a Supernova (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X Hailstorms Alouette)

Johnny Rose – CH JoyfulNoise N Kazuri Keeping Up With the Roses (BISS GCH Van-Mar The Duke of Hazzard X CH Kazuri’s Keeping Up Appearances) – bred with Dolly from Joyful Noise

Audrey – CH Rosehound’s Brown Eyed Girl at Kazuri (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X CH Foxtail’s Fast Curves) – bred by Bonnie and William Farrell and owned by Bonnie Farrell and Sarah Sweetman

And a Cavalier King Charles Champion also

Stevie – CH Kazuri’s You Are the Sunshine of My Life (CH Angels Pride Zakkary X LoKazuri Star Fourth In Line)

And a First time achievement for Sarah

I also won my first (personal) specialty show with Dutch (BISS GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin Up Trouble) bred by myself (Sarah Sweetman) and Chelsea Metteer and lovingly owned by Sarah Smith-Falkner, Sarah Sweetman and Chelsea Metteer. While my dogs have achieved this before, this was the first time I have been at the end of the leash for it.

I am so grateful for an incredible year of achievements. Let’s go 2024!!

7 week photos of the ckcs and beagle puppies as they play outside

The puppies are tiny dogs now and love nothing more than when they can play in the big yard with the big dogs. Right now the weather in the PNW is unpredictable and so we make the most of going outside every moment we can.

The cavaliers are growing confidence as the beagle puppies show them the ropes. Our golden is a perfect playmate as she is gentle and shows them big dogs are nothing to be afraid of. Even dogs that are visiting like Darwin the beagle, enjoy moments of play – even if they try to nurse from him.

I am enjoying every moment with these precious little ones. I have just under 2 weeks before the first of the beagles starts to fly the coup. Sigh.

Nellie’s pups are 2 weeks old

Nellie is doing a wonderful job as mom to her cavalier king charles puppies. They are all double their birth weight plus extra and I love to see them thriving so much. It is encouraging for sure.

Their eyes are starting to peep open and so I am sure they will be able to fully see in the next few days.

I love them so so much and can’t wait for their little personalities to start to come to life

Nellie’s cavalier pups are thriving

I am so so happy to say that this time, Nellie’s babies are thriving. We have had no sign of diarrhea and they are steadily gaining weight. Nellie keeps them spotlessly clean and I am so happy to have such a cruisy cavalier litter. Fingers crossed it continues

We decided to base the litter theme on the little guy with the “pants” on his legs – they remind me of Mickey Mouse’s pants with the little buttons. So, without further ado, here are the babies

Such a great weekend in Spokane

What an amazing weekend of fun, and friendship – thank you John and Dolly for your hospitality and Brianna, Ruthie, Jonah, Hannah, Tina, Lorna and Sam for all the amazing conversations, laughs and camaraderie.

Spokane kennel club didn’t disappoint with large spacious grooming spaces, great vendors, and amazing prizes given to the beagle winners! We won 2 gift baskets – woop woop. Thank you so much!

I was proud of my beagle crew – yes it was a very busy weekend 🙂 .

Buck (15) (Kazuri’s Call of the Wild) went reserve both days.

Johnny (15) (Joyful Noise N Kazuri’s Keeping Up with the Roses) went WD on Saturday.

Audrey (15) (Rosehounds Brown Eyed Girl at Kazuri) went WB/BOW on Saturday.

Willow (15) (Kazuri’s Cover Me In Sunshine) went Select both days for a major towards her Grand.

Maxim (15) (GCH Kazuri’s Rockin The Naughty List at Roylcrest) went BOS Saturday and BOV on Sunday finishing his GCH and working on his bronze.

And in cavaliers, Stevie (Kazuri’s You Are the Sunshine Of My Life) went BOB on Saturday and reserve winners Sunday. (darn he just needs one major to finish – LOL)

My little cavalier puppy Piper (Kazuri’s Play Me Another Love Song) went WB from the BBE class Sunday for her first points and only her 2nd time showing – we unfortunately missed ring time by minutes Saturday as I was in the beagle ring.

I don’t have photos of the dogs but I did of the amazing gift baskets we won with the beagles – thank you Dolly Stearns for putting those amazing gifts together 😀 lol.

Piper gets WB for her first points at her 2nd show

Little Piper is being shown from the BBE class – i am so proud of her as an owner and breeder.

Today, under judge Christie Martinez, she won WB. Unfortunately we were one short of a major, but thats okay.

Im proud of this little girl. Kazuri’s Play Me Another Love Song

Charlotte’s cavalier CKCS pups turn 9 weeks

Just like Phoenix and Sylvie’s pups, I took photos of Charlotte’s boys in the afternoon. I love these little spitfires so much – they are strong and healthy and friendly and sweet.

Enjoy their latest photos

Phoenix’s ckcs cavalier puppies turn 9 weeks

Phoenix and Charlotte’s pups had a huge playtime. As they wound down, I decided to capitalize on their sleepiness and take some individual photos. I set up a little basket under my trees.

I can hardly believe they will start to go to their new home in the coming weeks. I have loved having these precious little ones around.

Charlotte and Phoenix ckcs cavalier pups are enjoying the warm days outside

The PNW has a little heat wave and the pups think it’s marvelous. They love playing amongst the play toys and trees.

I just love this stage so so much. I am sad thinking about them going to their new homes in a month.

Charlotte’s CKCS cavalier pups are 7 weeks old

Charlotte is also now completely weaned her pups and they are independent – they love to play and explore the gardens outside and chase the bigger dogs. I love this cuddly wiggly stage so much.

Enjoy their chair pictures from this week – I think this will be my last opportunity for solo pictures like this as they are busy little guys.
