12-06-2011 MacThree's Khuddleigh BOS Baby and MacThree's Kylar BOB Baby in Lommel, Belgium

The second show for the babies and just like the first time, they were fully relaxed. Hans and Maud brought the puppypen with them and foster mother Noor (Alta Colina's Hessige Hedvig) was laying in there with Ray, Caine and Conan. Noor is really a perfect example from how a Pyr is and should behave 

Also Raya is developing very well; beautiful, feminine and elegant. The judge (Mr Roosenboom, Belgium) thought that Raya was better in head (quiet right!) and said before the BOB Baby competion that he would let her win if she moved better then her brother Conan. But still he found Conan more imposant for the main ring en Conan showed him a perfect gait with great drive and reach while Raya at that moment poked fun at the showprotocol and wouldn't show her beautiful gait. But, mark my words, it doesn't take long before this naughty bouncing ball beats her brother for the BOB competion......

Sadley no puppies this time for our Caitlin. Due to unforeseen circumstances we had to resort to artificial insemination this time. The sperm of the beautiful Chenespace Noble Norvegien was flown over from Norway and Caitlin was inseminated with that. We knew the changes of a pregancy would be less but on that moment we couldn't do anything else. Unfortunately this has not led to a pregancy of our Caitlin. In the autumn of 2010 we will repeat this combination but then on the natural way. We thank our puppybuyers who will waite for this mating for having confidence in us. Big XXX
