Litter plans this year

Our litter plans have changed here and there but I think we have the final plans all laid out :) We haven't had any Whippie pups in almost a year and we look forward to having our summer litters, none of the girls are in season yet - but Scarlet and Dido are due in pretty soon.

Scarlet will be bred to "Bowie" - Multiple Best In Field, DC Snow Hill Indecent Proposal MC, LCX-2, LCM I am so excited about this litter - though we may not have many pups, I am still excited about seeing the quality in the few pups we have. This will be Scarlet's 3rd and final litter, her first litter she had 1 pup and her second litter she had 2 - so we don't expect a huge litter from her at all. Bowie's first and only litter at the moment, all 6 kids are pointed in the show ring from the puppy classes! With Bowie's wonderful coursing career as well - we expect to have beautiful show puppies that will excel on the coursing field! Bowie is up to date on all his health testing (heart, eyes, ears and hips) and Scarlet will be updated on all of hers shortly (heart & eyes and will also have her ears checked before breeding)

Dido's litter will be a bit more complicated - she will be bred to BOTH Quincy and Brooks, our boys - we are going to attempt a dual sired litter and have figure out how we are going to do it. We are going to breed her to one of the boys naturally and artificially inseminate her with the other the same day and then the next breeding day we will switch the boys. Both boys are DNA tested already, we will be sending Dido's in before she is bred and all puppies will be DNA tested to detemine which puppies belong to which father. I am sure whatever pups come out almost solid colors will be sired by Quincy as from his first litter all of his puppies were solid colors except for their faces and feet. This will be Dido's first litter. Dido and Brooks have had their heart and eyes done and Brooks has had his ears done, Quincy has had his eyes done and will have atleast his heart done before he is bred to Dido.

Leigh's litter will be much later this year as she was just in season not to long ago but we have picked the boy out for her - this will be her last litter and will be bred to "Hudson" - Ch. Harmony's Andauer Lover Come Back. Mom saw some of his pups at the National and decided this was the boy for Leigh :) Hudson is up to date on his heart, eyes and ears and Leigh will be updated but has had her eyes & ears done and has had her heart echo'd 3 times and all have been clear.

So that is what we have planned for this year - next year we will focus on our race/performance litters, but the breedings are still a bit up in the air - will post when we are certain of what we are doing :)
