Reserved

Blanik Chino
Today the second pup booked has been reserved. They chose Harvey. It's so nice when the pups go to people who I already know and Trust. Sue had Jake, Blanik Chino from my third litter. It's also a compliment that now that the time is right for them to have another dog she's come back to us for a pup! I'm so excited in the knowledge that little Harvey is another that will get the best of everything in his life, though he could look a little more excited about it!!!

Harvey
As you may know Alex is going to live with Frank and Linda. They must be gluten for punishments as since we first met in 1996 this is their 4th Blanik dog. Another that I know will be spoilt rotten and I can't wait for the day when she runs off with Jake's ball! (Yes Linda's boy is a Jake too- he's Louis' brother from the "E" litter) Seriously on top of everything these dogs gives us, they also gives us the best of friends.
Steve and I also decided today was a good day to move the pups from the quite peaceful safety of the kitchen into the utility, where they would have lots more room and they can see and be seen more freely. Last night I got up at 3.30am to let Asha out and found the kitchen was in mayhem...they really were having a party! Asha went out and then went straight into her crate refusing to come out and go back into the pups....I think her expression said it all ... "It's your turn to look after them!" Would they settle? Would they hell!!! Steve then got up and we came to the conclusion that we should have a cuppa and let them "run it off!" So at 4am they started dropping and by 4.15am we where back in bed!
Not quite what I had in mind...
...And yes there's 9 in that pile!
After kitting out the room this afternoon and realising it was all wrong we started again, using Kai crate as a bed in one side of the room. (well actually seeing Sharon on her hands and knees in the first crate cleaning shit made me realise...this will not work) Yeah, second time round and as you can see, they loved it..NOT!!!
Tonight Asha is very unsettled, almost distressed at the move, but she'll soon get use to them being in another room I'm sure. Talking of unsettled, Jamie is not impressed at these little monsters running around. Strange really, he's the  most confident cat we've ever had and the first cat we've had who hasn't taken to pups in the house. Even Oliver blue loves pups!
Let's hope we all get some sleep tonight now!
