DECEMBER 24, 2012 | MERRY CHRISTMAS

 

We wish you all a merry Christmas and all the best for the new year 2013!!!

 

 

And here are some Christmas greetings of Cheka's puppies in the Tahyati kennel in Nieder-Olm (they are going to move to their families during the next days) and of the MbwaMemas in Leonberg (meanwhile they are 3 weeks old and they are diligently exploring the world outside the puppy box)... :)

DECEMBER 20, 2012 | NEWS FROM SILVERMOUNTAIN

Cheka's and Mali's puppies in the kennel MbwaMema of Silvermountain are more than two weeks old by now. They are all doing great and thy all have tripled their birth weight. In the meantime, the five puppies have opened their eyes and ears and they are practicing to walk, so that they will soon be able to explore the area outside the whelping box. By the way - they have also sucessfully completed their first deworming treatment...

More pictures of the puppies can be found under offspring.

DECEMBER 8, 2012 | WE VISITED THE TAHYATIS

Last Sunday we visited the Tahyatis in Nieder-Olm. By the time of our visit Cheka's and Lela's puppies were 5 weeks old. They have developed very well - they are powerful, very active and absolutely cute! It was great to spend some time with them!

Steffi Lips has taken great pictures of the puppies! Many thanks for that! You can find more pictures under offspring.

DECEMBER 6, 2012 | CHEKA'S AND MALI'S PUPPIES ARE BORN!!!

Cheka's and Mali's puppies were born on Monday, the 3rd of December, in the kennel MbwaMema of Silvermountain close to Stuttgart. The birth was a bit complicated, but 3 females and 2 males have seen the light of day. Unfortunately the third male did not make it. The puppies all have correct ridges and weighed between 470 and 525 grams directly after their birth.

In the meantime Mali and her 5 puppies have recovered well after the exhausting birth! They are all doing very well - Mali is caring lovingly for her babies and the puppies are becoming bigger, heavier and more powerful from day to day.

More information about the mating of Mali and Cheka and pictures of the puppies are available under offspring. If you are interested in a puppy of this litter, feel free to directly contact the breeder Britta Riek.

NOVEMBER 30, 2012 | RODENBOSCH LOFTUS

A few days ago I got news of Rodenbosch Loftus. He is from the Belgian kennel Rodenbosch, is Cheka's and Zahra's son and lives with his familiy in the Netherlands. Meanwhile, Loftus is about half a year old. He has developed very well and had his show debut at the Winner Show in Amsterdam last weekend. He became 2nd and received a nice report:

"Lovely type. Good bonestructure. Lovely outline. Good line of head and earset. Good balance in angulation."

I am proud of Cheka's offspring and I am always looking forward to news of his children! Thanks to Etty for the news and pictures of Loftus!

The last week of Malis pregnancy has begun in the kennel MbwaMema of Silvermountain. The expected date of birth of Mali's and Cheka's puppies is the 3rd or 4th of December. The pictures below are taken yesterday and they are showing Mali at the 57th day of her pregnancy. She is doing very well, has a round baby belly and only moves if it is necessary. Meanwhile Mali weighs 8,8 kg more than she had before the mating und the movements of the puppies in her belly are clearly observable.

NOVEMBER 6, 2012 | VISITING THE TAHYATIS'

This Sunday I got to know the 7 dwarfs in the Tahyati kennel. At the time of my visit, they were 10 days old, had already doubled their birth weight and the first puppies had just opened their eyes!

The puppies are unbelievingly cute and they are all doing very well - they are mainly sleeping, drinking and crawling around. Their mother Lela is also very fine, she's in top shape again and cares very lovingly for her babies. Furthermore all family members of the Langs are taking care of the puppies!

AUGUST 20, 2012 | HOW WE SPENT THE HOTTEST DAYS OF THE YEAR

On friday Cheka, Hannes and me made a trip from Taunusstein to the river Rhine and went swimming together! Usually, Cheka isn't really a "water rat", but because of the heat we were able to make him swim with us - it was wonderful and we all had a lot of fun!!! :)

In the evening, Cheka and me drove to Leipzig, were we were visiting the International Dog Show together with Cheka's mother Vuana, his half-sister Kiruna and his niece Tarou. The judgement of the dogs was carried out by Eliana Tan-Hietalahti from Finland.

Cheka was presented by his breeder Claudia Körner, who did a great job - as usual! A big thank for that, Claudia!!! Cheka received a great V2 (excellent) within the tough field of the open class and got a nice show report. Furthermore he became second best male of the show!

Kiri, Tarou and Cheka's mother Vuni have also been very successful in Leipzig - warmest congratulations to the great placements on Saturday and on Sunday!

We spent the rest of Saturday at a lake close to Leipzig. Since we were both very exhausted from the stress of the day, we fell asleep there immediately. Later we went home to Magdeburg after having spent two weeks in Taunusstein.

On Sunday we didn't last at home very long, because it was really hot. So we went to the lakes of Salbke in the South of Magdeburg. Here we met many dogs and Cheka made some new friends, played a lot and we chilled out together.

AUGUST 16, 2012 | TIME TO SAY GOODBYE IN ITALY

Our Italian puppies from the Kifahari Kuzaa kennel are today exactly 9 weeks old! They are all still doing very well and have developed wonderfully. Last week, they all got their micro chip and the second vaccination. Now it is time to say goodbye to the Graneris' and to move to their families. Miss Yellow will be the first to leave the kennel - she will move to Rome on Saturday! The others are going to leave during the next week!

I am very happy about the great development of the puppies and that they have become beautiful, strong and robust dogs. All of them have had a great puppy time with the Graneris' and a wonderful rearing period - a big thank to Patrizia for all the effort and love that you put into the breeding of the pups and for letting us participate in the development of them by sending many e-mails and current pictures!!! Thank you so much!

Best wishes to our little Italian boys and girls! We hope that you will all have healthy, happy and long lives and that you and your families will have lots of pleasure together!!! Farewell little varmits!:)

AUGUST 2, 2012 | VISITING THE RODENBOSCHS IN BELGIUM

Yesterday we spent a great afternoon with the Kulowanys and Zahra's and Cheka's puppies in the Belgian kennel Rodenbosch. The puppies are 9 weeks old by now and they are leaving the kennel and taken home from their families within this week!

The puppies have been developing very well and they have become very handsome little dogs with wonderful heads. All of them have spent a great rearing period with the Rodenboschs. They have learned and got to know many things and were able to discover a bit more with every new day! That is why they all have become fearless, courious and open-minded dogs with stable characters!

It was really great to see that the puppies have been brought up, looked after and cared for very well by their mother Zahra and the Kulowanys and how much love, time and effort was put into the rearing of the pups! I am very grateful for that!

Here are a few pictures of the dog-family. Cheka and Zahra were very happy about the reunion and every now and then Cheka curiously approached his children - but all in all he preferred keeping a certain distance to the wild and playful varmints... ;-)

JULY 8, 2012 | KIRI, CHE AND DAC SUCCESSFUL IN MEISDORF

After a long dog show break we spent a very successful weekend at the Pedigree-Dog-Meeting in Meisdorf. Three dogs of the large Ndoki-family and their owners met at the "Parkhotel Schloss Meisdorf": Etara Kiruna, Dacabo and Cheka.

Cheka was starting in the open class and could reach the top result V1 (exellent) on both show days. He was closely followed by his nephew Dacabo who is nearly two years younger and earned an excellent second place (V2) on Saturday and on Sunday! Cheka's half-sister Kiri even topped these results - she started in the intermediate class, received the result V1 (excellent) and furthermore became best female of the ridgebacks! Unbelievable... On Saturday, the showing was evaluated by the Slovakian judge Ludmilla Fintorová, on Sunday the Australian judge Noreen Harris was in action.

My sincere thanks goes to our breeder Claudia Körner who has presented Cheka easily besides - without any practicing or ring training! I thank you so much for the great presentation and I am absolutely happy about Cheka's excellent results and about the outstanding placements which are reached by your offsprings over and over again!!!

Here is an overview of the results in Meisdorf:

JUNE 13, 2012 | HOLIDAY IN HOLLAND

Cheka and me have been in Holland at the lake Veluwe over the Corpus Christi weekend. The Surf- and Beachvolleyball Camp of the TSV Bleidenstadt volleyball department took place there - like every year. This year, we were 40 people of all ages. Since Cheka and me had to travel from Magdeburg, we had a longer journey than normally, but we had at least as much fun as every year. We cycled a lot and Cheka obviously enjoyed it to be able to move freely within the camp site all day and to get a few snacks from the other participants every now and then... ;-) We slept together with Hannes, Mimi (my brother and his girlfriend) and five friends of us in one of the big white tents (which can be seen on the photos) - Cheka slept in his kennel and we slept on cots. All in all we had lots of fun and Cheka was happy that he could spend the whole day outside with us.

Here a few photos:
