a very belated Happy Birthday

... to Savannah, Fly and Tye from Sing x Sunny litter. I am very sorry this belated message came so late, these three gorgeous babies turned ONE year old on 30th September. 

Also, a very belated 2nd Happy Birthday to Silky (Sing x Skye 17th October 2010 litter)

Goodbye Rona

Rona is off for her great journey to The Netherlands today. She has been an amaSing puppy; and so do Fat Boy who was an amuSing puppy. I surely will miss them terribly. It has been rather stressful moving house and change of lifestyle but these two puppies keep me going and be stronger each day. 

Rona is going to join her half sister Skye (Sing x Samber puppy) and hopefully she will train Jolanda to do Agility (Oops! Sorry Jolanda! Hahaha ...). Her grand-dad Frodo only lives 25km away from her, so hopefully she will get to meet him sometimes. She is the spitting image of her mama Sipzie at the same age. She is a a typical Sipzie baby, crazy and fun!

Happy Halloween

tricky T'day

Sorry I haven't been blogging much! Gosh! I am so busy. I thought living in the country will be so quiet and relaxing; instead I am up 6:30am every morning and chaos start, all the way until 10pm and I am dead! My Internet connection is so slow and I tried to watch the videos and none actually play smoothly, they hang! Sigh ~ so much of country life! 

Sorry I didn't left any comments on friends' blog, I was trying to catch up with what's going on ... hopefully I will be on track again soon. 

Not much of a tricky T-day, our new bi-black girl Sen (or Seny) arrived a couple of weeks ago from Czech Republic. The first week, we didn't do anything, just get her to used to the family and surrounding. She is doing great, apart from one problem ... LEAK! OMG! Can't she leak? Excited, she leaks! Nervous, she leaks! Any movements, she leaks! Luckily, our ground floor is all tile but she likes to jump up on the sofa and she leaks when I call her! If any of you out there can give me a good suggestion on how to stop her leaking, I will be grateful! I have in the past a few bitches that leak when they get really excited but none of them leak like the way she leaks! When she sees food/treat, she leaks! Oops!

this is me trying to do some clicker with her, you can see she is one very happy girly!

Chestnut, aka Fat Boy

Today, we wave good-bye to Fat Boy. He's off adventure to his new home in Dorset. He has been a great puppy in the last 8 weeks. Always made me smile with his little antics. He is very much like his daddy Sing, very forward and outgoing; nothing fears him and is keen to explore to new environments. We wish him ALL THE BEST and hopefully I will see him again soon.

having a good run on the Ridge on the weekend:

wordless Wednesday

Rona & Fat Boy 7 weeks!

Finally, we are back to civilisation :) We got our landline and internet fixed on Tuesday! One problem living in the country is the Internet is very slow, although we've ordered the "best". I guess the country life is very relaxing and everything has its own speed! I really enjoyed my country life, no complaining apart from trying to watch any video and it keeps stopping! I can't even watch a small clip without hiccup :(

Lots of updates coming up ... but firstly, Sing x Sipzie's puppies are 7 weeks old today! OMG! Where does all the time gone? They both have their eyes tested on Thursday and as expected, they are both CEA clear :) These two puppies are very active, they are wearing me down all the time! Thank God Flint was a good little boy to help me keeping them busy from time to time. They play and play and play ...

here are some fairly recent photos of the puppies:

wordless Wednesday

a dream comes true ...

Just a quick update ... we've moved at long last! We still have not got any Internet, we live in the middle of nowhere, kinda out of civilisation but we couldn't be happier! Fresh air, plenty of land to walk around and is surrounding by stunning view all around us. 

All is well here, soon I've got the Internet connection, I will do a big update.

yes, these lucky shelties have their own lake/pond to swim :)

and he is the man that made all our dreams come true 

almost wordless Wednesday

Right, lots of news ... Sonic's first agility début on the weekend, pups-date, housing ... etc all have to wait. We are running out of time packing. Removal Van will be here less than 24 hours but we never forget to have fun with our shelties :) Not sure Sizzle really like to be packed but soon they will be living in the Shelties Wonderland! We haven't got the Internet fix at the new house yet and it is in the middle of nowhere so how long will it takes with this terrible weather (great!), only God knows. We will be off line from any minute now, hopefully the next time I post, we will have a BIG update on everything. 

exciting weekend

Little did I know, Sonic is now 18 months old and he can officially compete at the Kennel Club Open show! Oops! I have entered a weekend show with him, so we are going to have some fun. He, is not ready yet. We have missed out a lot on out training. We stop going to our weekly Club due to our trainer on maternity leave; then we have to rest him on and off for 6-8 weeks due to his back leg problem, so no practice in the garden either! We only just started to "do" agility again last weekend after a complete 8 weeks off of doing nothing! We had lots of fun last Sunday at an UKA show, we made a lot of silly mistake but he's only a baby. I am really pleased with his speed and most of all, the enthusiasm! I think we will have a lot of fun. I am so looking forward to it! 

pups-date

Sipzie's puppies are 3.5 weeks now, goodness me, where did all the times gone? These two little rascal plus Flint bring some sunshine to us in the middle of packing! Every now and then, we take a break and had a little play with them. Fat boy Chestnut is quite steady on his feet now, apart from "hoping" on the wobble board and roll off then dash into the kitty play tunnel, he is alright. I just can't stop laughing at his little antics. Luckily, little princess Rona is the sensible one. She is very cheeky in herself. She is always watching and waiting to see where her brother is, then without him noticing it, she will sneak from behind and pounce on him! Then, the two of them mouthing each other. Just too cute! Am I going to finish packing in time? I know Colin keeps reminding me: Can you please pack more! Mmm ... sorry Colin, these puppies are just too cute! I can't pack right now!

 fat boy: SOS mama! Rona tried to sneak up behind me!

Rona: too late mate! I am right behind you!

Rona: you are too fat and ticklish, get off me, hahaha ...

 fat boy: me fat? that's an insult! I am just cute! 

 Rona: oh ... whatever, this newspaper is tasty!

Rona: grandma! please stop taking pictures, it's boring! 

and here is a little video taken last night:
