It is time for us to do my favorite chair photos – who doesnt love an adorable cavalier puppy on a bright blue chair? I know I do.
They are 7 weeks old – we did their Volhard temperament testing (click the link to learn more about what this is). I will write a basic update on each puppy with their photos. Please note that there is no “right” or “wrong” for their temperament test – each puppy has a baseline that is unique and can give us some insight on how to best place them and also what areas we can focus on in our training.
Enjoy their 7 week old photos on the blue chair.
Salsa – she was friendly with strangers and quick to forgive. will make a super companion for a family or busy home i think
Churro – more gentle and a watcher rather than a bold “do-er” – she was not a fan of the loud noise and went and hid – i think a more quiet family will be good for her. She will need to have lots of socialization
Pico – she was friendly but not needing approval or attention from our tester. The loud noise scared her but she recovered quickly. I think she could go to a busy or more quiet home – either are places she can thrive
Nacho – very gentle boy who didn’t like the loud noise or the moving towel. He recovered slower than I would like but when picked up and soothed he was fine. He is a total lap dog and would do great in a situation where he can be with his person/people a lot of the day
Tamale –
Taco – eager to follow and meet people. Loud noise made him scared but he recovered quickly. Didn’t like the paw squeeze at all. I have my eye on him as a potential show prospect.

Paige is such a great mom – the puppies are fat and healthy and almost a little lazy. With their ears and eyes open, they should be wanting to explore more and play wrestle. Her babies are always sleeping 🙂 haha. Full round tummies and happy hearts
Enjoy these photos – I feel a bit bad that they are pretty similar to last week – except they are bigger 🙂 haha. I wont complain about happy healthy content cavalier puppies
Enjoy their 3 week old photos

Tori’s puppies are finally eating 3 good meals a day – I find that as they gain confidence in eating on their own, they also grow confidence in life. When they play outdoors now, they are excited to get out and about and explore.
We are starting to see little hints of personality come forth which is really fun too. Salsa and Tamale are the boldest and first to explore while Nacho is always scrambling to be on my knee. Miss Pico is a little more independent and Churro and Taco like to hang back and watch. We shall see more information as they have their Volhard temperament test next week.
Enjoy the photos from this week – they wanted to explore these rocks so badly, and not just sit on them for photos. I am starting to wonder if my days of taking photos of them by themselves are coming to an end.
Enjoy the 6 week photos of Tori and Charlie’s little love nuggets.

Nova’s babies are 8 weeks and will start to head to their new homes next week. I can’t even believe how fast this time has gone and how much I love these precious little gifts. Thank you again to Nova’s dad Ken for partnering with me to allow me to show Nova, health test her and have a litter.
I am just making my final decisions on who stays here at Kazuri and who goes to their new home in the up coming days. Who are your favorites?
Enjoy the final pictures of the babies all together as they play in our yard as they were not interested in individual photos at all this week 🙂 I can’t blame them – the world is a wonderfully interesting place and it’s their job to discover it all.
Tori’s babies have their eyes open and are up on their feet – wobbly but making their way around the pen to find their mom wherever she may be. They are making little squeaks and growls – this is the fun stage where they sound like little chipmonks.
We will be starting solids in a few days – let the new sensations begin 🙂
The INBC is a relativly new beagle club – our first specialty shows were last year (2025) and so we tried to put on a show with excellence that exhibitors would want to come to. We were very proud of the ribbons and prizes offered – many were hand made by member Heidi McKeon from Tradewinds. Thankyou to her. Thank you to show chair Lorna Boydston, and to raffle hustler extraordinaire Dolly Stearns for having such amazing things for us to raffle off. Thank you to Ruthie for making a cohesive and beautiful website for us to enjoy. Thank you to exhibitors Pia, Robyn and Diana for driving from several states away to join us for the weekend – it was SO fun to have you all there.

What an absolutly incredible day – a little bit crazy with so many dogs to show but also so so wonderful. I will do another post about the rest of the weekend in another post.
Nova’s lovely 7 are growing well and getting up to lots of mischief. They are enjoying the nicer weather now that Seattle has brought out the sun. I am really enjoying watching the movement on these puppies – it seems very true – I am going to try and narrow down my selections for now – it’s so hard 😛 LOL.
Enjoy their photos from this week on my favorite blue chair.
Nova continues to be an amazing momma – the puppies are now her playmates as they are eating 3 meals a day. They LOVE food and the bowl is always licked clean. They don’t want to use their potty box yet, so we will just call that a work in progress. All I can say is lucky they are all so cute <3 haha
The weather was so warm in the 70s today and so I took the babies outside for a small outdoor play – they weren’t too sure about it, but I know each time they go out, their confidence will grow.
I love these tiny precious little pups. Lucky me for being the one to raise them.
Enjoy the photos of them from this week <3

I am thrilled to announce that this weekend, In Yakima, Miss Skylar finished her AKC championship with all majors!! Thank you to judges Mr Robert L Robinson and Ms. Tempest Deptuch for finding Sky this weekend despite her silly actions.
Skylar was bred by my friends Lisa Young and Jenni Neift and is co-owned by, and loved by myself.
Skylar isn’t even one yet, and so she will get to now play in the yard and sleep on the couch until she is old enough to do her health testing
