Klara’s been bred

Sat, 04 Sep 2010 20:49:58 +0000

Klara has been bred to Sammy - aka AM/CAN/UKC/INT BIS & BIMBS CH Pinafore First Edition Midori.

As you can see by his titles, Sammy is a very accomplished dog in the show ring. Everything I’ve heard about Sammy is just wonderful. Not only does he possess an outstanding breed conformation, he has a wonderfully energetic and friendly personality. To top it off, Sammy is said to be very athletic. Undoubtedly, the litter will produce some fantastic performance dogs.

For anyone interested in the pedigree, you can check out the litter’s pedigree at www.poodlepedigree.com

We’ll find out if Klara is positively pregnant at the end of September by doing an ultra-sound test. If she is pregnant, puppies will be whelped around Halloween with puppies ready for their new homes at the first of the year - 2011. All the puppies are expected to be black.

Poodles camping in Door County

The Poodle girls, Klara and Ilsa had great fun camping along Rowleys Bay at the Wagon Trail Camp ground.

Door County (Wisconsin, USA) is a paradise for outdoor activities. From hiking in the woods and swimming in Lake Michigan to taking in the sunset over Green Bay or shopping in the quaint villages, there’s something for every taste.

Be sure to try the world renowned cherries!

Weaning started

Comfort food

Feasting on gruel

The puppies started the weaning process by getting a watery gruel of mashed puppy chow. After the second time seeing the feeding bowl, all the puppies are taking after their mother - never missing a meal or morsel of food.

Klara has puppies!

Klara with her six puppies

After pacing, panting, and generally being annoyingly restless all day, Klara whelped six black puppies. Three boys, three girls are all healthy and Klara is doing well, too. She’s being a very good mom. Average weight of the pups was about 10 oz which is what I’d expect as Klara and Mick (sire Ch Nightwind Paint It Black) are medium sized Std. Poodles.

Klara qualifies in Agility Excellent B Jumpers

On Friday, Klara earned a qualifying score in Excellent B Jumpers. Her first “leg” towards her MXJ title. She did this in the very friendly confines of the Oshkosh Kennel Club.

Now, to work on her contact obstacle performance!

Klara’s looking pregnant

Patty and I both agree that Klara is starting to show signs of being pregnant. She’s ever so slightly bulging in the belly.

Klara was bathed and groomed on Monday. She has to look pretty for the Agility Trial in Oshkosh this coming weekend. Here’s a picture of Klara relaxing while on the grooming table.

Klara earned new titles

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 04:31:14 +0000

Klara earned her AX and AXJ titles last weekend during the Wisconsin Rapids Kennel Club’s Agility Trial at Camp Bandy in Amherst Junction, WI. AX means Agility Excellent and AXJ is Agility Excellent Jumpers. Earning these titles means she will be able to start competing for MACH points. MACH stands for Master Agility Champion. The ultimate title in AKC Agility! Klara is a pretty young dog to achieve the AX & AXJ titles. She is only 2 and one half years old.

Klara, Keweenaw Candle Bright has been bred to Mick, Ch Nightwind Paint It Black. Mick is owned by Jerry and Gina Hans of New Carlisle, IN. Mick is a very nice looking dog with a great black coat. He has good front shoulders which is something Klara somewhat lacks. If all goes well Klara should be having a litter of black puppies on May 6, 2009.
