Athanmas Puppies

Our first litter of puppies born to Elsa are now over two years old. The fine dog pictured above is Monty (Athanmas Boggabilla Lad) who now lives in Kingston-on-Thames (copyright held by Monty's owners). He will always be remembered by us as Boggie, the pup with the distinctive white blaze on his forehead. Most of Elsa's first litter went to homes quite far away but Miree (Pride of Victoria) went to live in Dorchester and we still see her quite regularly.

We recently received a picture of Emma (Kurri Kurri) another of Elsa's 'puppies'. She is so facially identical to Elsa that I thought someone had in fact sent me a picture of Elsa.

It would seem likely that Elsa will soon become a grandmother as the owners of both Emma and Tara (Adelaide Star) are hoping to breed from them.

Pictures of the individual puppies from Elsa's first litter can be seen in Elsa's Puppy Gallery. The photos of Tara and Tasha below were taken by their new owners who retain copyright.

Elsa proudly announced the arrival of TEN healthy puppies on Thursday 14th June 2007. Five girls and five boys and they have now all gone to their new homes.

Owning a pup isn't as simple as some people might make you believe. For a start off, Elsa or Sabah may not like the look of you. If you are not going to be at home all day and will leave her puppy on its own then she wont let you have one, it's as simple as that.

Elsa and Sabah have a number of other ground rules too
(1)	You must show them that you know a lot about looking after puppies like theirs. They take a lot of grooming and when they are wet, which they often are, they take a lot of drying!!
(2)	You must be able to teach their puppy to be a well behaved, friendly and well liked dog.
(3)	You must have a safe garden for their puppy to play in.
(4)	You must agree to take their puppy to the vet for it's innoculations and other treatment
(5)	If you have children they must love the puppy and not treat it like a toy. That will apply to everyone else in your household too!
(6)	If you turn out to be a puppy farmer..... just remember what happened in "The Lady & The Tramp"

If you are really, truly, madly and deeply serious about owning one of our puppies when they become available and you think that you understand the commitment that you will need to make, please get in touch. Our contact details are available via the above link. Remember that our obligation as breeders will always be to ensure that each and every puppy goes to a loving and caring owner, one who will ensure that it lives a happy and, hopefully, a long life. If you do not think that you can make a similar commitment to the welfare of a precious and trusting animal then you will know that one of our puppies is not for you.
