A nice day at Helsinki group and puppy shows. First Dara aka D. Umbrella Girl entered to group show, being only bitch getting CQ so she was winner in bitches, took CC and later BOS. Her little siblings entered to the puppy show, first brothers Urho and Robi, D. Vitamin D and D. Viva Las Vegas. Urho didn't behave this time so he went 2nd, Robi winning. Robi continued by winning the best male puppy class and later selected as BOS puppy. Also sister Venla aka D. Vanilla Twist entered, being 2n with hp at her class. A lovely day again, thanks and congrats to all!

We had nice day at Loviisa group show on Saturday. 5 of Kerttu's progeny did enter, and the success wasn't bad. First entered sisters D. Violet Hill aka Menni and D. Virtual Joy aka Helmi to the puppy class, Helmi won BOB puppy and Menni came 2nd with hp. Uncommon Spice was BM 4th taking CC, her sister Molly got VG2 placement, and finally another sister Dara aka D. Umbrella Girl won bitches, took her 1st CC and won BOS. Well done all! Judge was Mrs Leni Finne and 21 WSS entered.

Santeri aka Dirlian Uncommon Spice has been x-rayed and the final result has arrived from Kennel Club and it is the best possible, also A/A. His eyes were checked also at the same time and they were ok. All our U-puppies have been examined now, thanks to owners!

Our W-litter was born yesterday, 7 males and one bitch puppy. All of them are doing fine and their "whelping box names" for the boys given according classic finnish novel "Seven brothers" by Aleksis Kivi. The only girl will be called as "Neiti" (Miss).
The picture gallery of the litter will be found in here, and also our Puppy Cam will be broadcasting at (mainly) the evenings and weekends).

It has been quite hectic beginning of the year for us, even if there's no big news to tell from the dog frontier. I have got some nice news that all Kerttu's puppies from her last litter are doing fine in their own homes. I hope we can meet with many of them later in the spring.
We'll soon have exciting times, as Kukka's litter will be born, the d-day is in next weekend so let's see how many new Dirlians we'll get. Above the photo of Kukka and how she looked yesterday, 1 week left to go.
