Gypsy in Brazil

Another picture from the last year, this time from Brazil. Since I last posted a picture of Gypsy she has grown into a smart young terrier, pictured here winning BOB at the Panamericana.

Gypsy is Canela's daughter from her first litter by Muhlross Melrosian. We mated her for the second time in November, in England, to Cassacre Mandolin, and showed one of the pups (Jones) from that litter for the first time this last weekend. Picture to follow when I can get one.

Folia is US champion

As I let my blog get out of date, there's a backlog of news from our breeding project. One of the events of the last year was Folia earning her US championship. Her undocked tail was apparently no obstacle.

Folia is a daughter of Elisa da Roseira Brava by Morgan for Roseira Brava, and belongs to Mary Strom in the United States.

Pisca's puppies expected

Our whippet bitch, Pisca (right), is expecting puppies in early August.

We took her to England in June to be mated to CH Nut Chip of Nevedith (below), taking the chance to visit the Southern Counties show.

Pisca is a daughter of Nevedith Eefa Empra and was top dog in the Portuguese hound group in 2008.

I'll be posting pictures and news of the litter, here and on my Facebook page.

Thanks to Pauline Oliver for the photo of Chip.

Gambler

This weekend we had the Portuguese terrier club show and then two more days of the Sintra shows. Gambler completed his Portuguese championship and Abby won best veteran in show two days running, and reserve best veteran on Sunday.

The photo shows Gambler in the group final on the last day. Thanks to Rui Monteiro for the picture.
