2008-01-31 - LP on his way to Canada!
Our little stunner RV Rndrs Provocator, aka Little P (hence "LP" ;) is now on his way to Canada. LP will be living with Haley's breeder Steven Woodham and his family and dogs at kennel Rindurr. We look so much forward to receiving news of his progress in his new country!

Biggest thanks to Bitte Rehnberg and the Stardust hounds who have been taking such excellent care of LP while he has been in Sweden!! You are the best!!

Some recent piccies of this handsome little charmer:

2008-01-26 - Sollentuna puppy show, judge Jens Myrman, breed entry 4
Only two RV's were entered on the day but nevertheless we had a very big crowd present with a total of 6 O-babies, 3 P-babies, Helinn and Kean there to cheer for Owen and Occra and to hang out with the rest of the gang. It was so good to see how big and lovely and well behaved all the O's have grown and how beautifully they all got along. The O's are probably the most kissable bunch I've bred so far and just cuties the lot of them! :) Kean also behaved perfectly at his very first show, although he wasn't shown, just along for the practice.

The little P's were impressively collected in this stressful environment and with level-headed curiousity experienced all the dogs, people and noices. Of course I couldn't resist a full photo session now that I had all these lovely dogs here and 6 x O's, Kean and 3 x P's later I almost have no skin left on my fingers. ;) Clearly these guys easily mistake grand-ma's fingers for meatballs!! ;)

I had the honour to show both Owen and Occra for the first time and they both behaved beautifully in the ring. Owen was 1st in a class of two with honour's prize and subsequently BOB. Occra won the bitch class but was not awarded champion quality, although she certainly behaved like a champion in the ring! :) Owen finished nicely as BIG-2 from four finalists. Thanks Cissi and Tina for letting me handle your lovely babies!!

Gorgeous Opal placed 5th in the strong bitch class and her sister Okalani "Lani" won the class. Of all the handsome boys, our "Viggo" aka RV Orlando, won the class and finished as BOB to sis Lani. Super congrats to all proud owners - Christer (Viggo), Ulrika & Stefan (Opal) and Jazz and Mike (Lani) and special thanks to Jazz and Ulrika for helping out with the handling of Viggo!

In the finals, Viggo was shortlisted among the final 10 from 60+ competing puppies!

In the bitch class, Ikaros-daughter Evergrace's Topmix Taluna "Luna" won the intermediate class and finished as bb-5 with her first CC. Big, big congrats Jenny and Ewa!! :). In a huge champion class, Helinn finished 2nd with Norwegian Ch Exgate's Qi by Forrest winning the class. These girls also placed bb-1 and bb-2.

So in all a really good day for us! :) I'm waiting for piccies to land in the mail and will share them with you when they arrive!

At the SKK show on January 4th, Mankell also won the junior class, finishing just outside the final best male placements. Brother Midas was 2nd in class. Their sisters Mantra and Mynta were second and third in their class. Opal and Lani were 4th and 5th in the puppy bitch class, none of the males competed on this day.

2008-01-02 - The final Swedish top ten show dog's list!

We are of course immensely proud to have no less than three RV-dogs in the Top Ten show dogs of the year 2007. And probably even more proud to see them represent years of RV-breeding - ranging from soon 10-year old Akeron in spot 9, to our brand new champion, young Lexi in spot 8. The winner of the last three (!) years, gorgeous Helinn, has been shown rather sparingly this year and nevertheless is found in the silver spot - as top winning RR bitch in Sweden once again. :)


Congrats Bengt and co-handlers on Aramis' list win!
