We are pleased to introduce our newest family member... Bruno!

Bruno was a member of the Sadie-Shadow litter that arrived on August 12, 2008.
We are thrilled that our dear friend Terri Hayden (Xanadu Shilohs) offered us
the opportunity to share our lives with her "pick" puppy from that litter!

Bruno has settled in well, and is adored by the rest of our pack.


Bruno's Hips!

In April, Bruno had a minor injury that required stitches.  Since he was under anesthesia anyway, Vet Nicole shot an x-ray of his hips.  She was impressed by their quality!

Bruno's official hip and elbow x-rays will be done, and submitted to the OFA for preliminary evaluation, in early July.*

Now that he is nearing one year of age, we can see what an incredible "big dog"
Bruno will become.  He is tall and lanky, and seems to be growing before our eyes.
 We adore his sweet temperament; he practically turns himself inside out to please us!

Uh-oh!!!
In late May, Bruno & Nellie decided to have some fun.  The result?  Puppies – that
were recently confirmed via ultrasound –  are due in late July!  Though not a planned
litter, we can’t wait to see the babies that these two sweethearts have produced!

* We will have OFA results before/shortly after the puppies arrive.
