Dont know where to begin
I'm told its 20 days and have been idle LOL so now have that much to put on here it serves me right...So just click every where as will be adding pics in almost all blogs.
Need to congratulate Alport LockNLoad's folk as he got best in show on Sunday by the ref's decision so 2 judges decided he should go best .....So clever boy Ruger and finally starting to come together ...Havent seen any pic's as yet but I think some were taken so will upload them when i see them..
I have some more web sites to add but will have to wait till I get back ...I'm off to Sweden Friday and am starting to look forward to it, I'm bringing collar and leads with me as well and I'm going to be on my best behavior but I think I will be drinking with the judges so I'm not saying I promise 100% not to ask any questions LOL
I have had pic's from Buffy's people and will put some under Sall blog they are the most gorgeous puppies imaginable and I have thought about Buffy most days as it takes me a while to deal with such things.
On an up note Tilly's pup's are also doing well and cant believe they are 3.5 weeks already we know one is going to Cornwall as a much loved pet and then one will be living with Raif and I have hung off homing the 3rd as want to study them some more and make some decisions on which should go where and its not easy. Pic's of them on Tilly's blog
Posting pic's of Tag's babies as well and some new pic's in Nell's blog... The puppy going to Sicily left on Sunday and arrived safely but its hard keeping them that long and then letting them go so not sure how I feel about it and doing it again ...15 weeks and they are part of your clan
Will report back after the weekend and hope it isn't to sticky weather wise as its killing me
OK so some pics on here and the rest spread all over and in no particular order.
Had to post one of Raif who looks remarkably happy having just had his dew claw lobbed off bless him
One of Tilly and the Italian girl
One of Buffy's babies
One of Tag's and DeeDee's baby
One of Harley Nell's son
One of Tag's and the French Champion's puppy girl

Need to update
Ok first news Tilly had her puppies and we are more disappointed for the folk we will have to let down but delighted that we have 3 beautiful girl puppies and I am contacting folk now especially those that wanted a boy dog from us ....But I have been onto other folk and can pass some onto nice litters..The main thing being Tilly is amazing and has taken it all in her stride....To the point that today the Italian puppy had snook into the kitchen and there she was sitting in the box next to Tilly and her babies, Tilly not put out at all and will post pic's when their is something to see but at this moment they are all black blobs ...
With good news goes bad news and on the same day Tilly became the perfect Mum we had a call from Big Bears people and that's not working out...I've let off steam there but at the end of the day I am his breeder and I need to do right by the dog so that has to be sorted this week.
Had more good news as Zorro picked up another CC and had some wonderful pic's come through of Zorro and his brother Billy, which I will post
Buffy's pup's are doing really well with adopted Mum Mia and I have pic's which I will have to post
But wanted to to tell a bit of a story as I need a bit of a laugh and at the time I was in stitches ....Nell has kind of taken over from Tag on the our air space patrol ...Tag's routine was to run to the bottom of the garden and look to the roof tops of the OAP's bungalows we have at the bottom of our garden...Mainly to one corner as most are obscured by Simon work shop and if a Pigeon or Crow was any where to be seen he would do his rutting dance and a deep bark and now Nell does the same and sometimes at night as well plus Rosie, Tilly and Italian Pup all race after her....As I mention her and she is actually going to live in Sicily so makes her Sicilian....But she is really lovely and keep trying for nice pic's but will have to post as she is so pretty.
So Saturday morning after I managed to hobble down stairs oh the joys of getting old, my knees are buggered after all those years of horse riding and running a motor cycle and getting out to horses through the winter, hence the memory foam bed and believe me I would kill for this bed ...And let me just say the list of ailments is endless and do I complain...So from head to toe well the wrinkles have taken over along with the grey but thank god for hair dye, I have a frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, 1 lump on the back of my hand which if I catch it, it just kills , trigger finger and working down the body a now rotting womb part of the pleasure of being female and I wont mention any of the other bits OMG...Amazing flushes and brain freeze ....a dodgy hip after being booted by a nag 2 clicky knees , 1 funny anckle after landing on a railway track and I think that just about covers it....So my bed has to work
But my knees were set because I had Tilly between them all night and she was really restless plus we had the windows open and it sounded like the Hitchcock movie of The Birds when I finally got to sleep
So feeling a bit grumpy like you do I let out Nell followed by Rosie and the pup....As Madam Tilly was fast on upstairs still....We have a path going straight down the middle to the workshop and I was just about to take a slurp of my coffee and watch dogs through the window.....And on top of Simon's flat roof which took me a few seconds to work out what the hell it was as it looked like a bloody gargoyle as its head was down over the edge and Nell spotted it first so her tail up like a rudder and all of a quiver and a half deep bark as her head was right up in the air , then Rosie who's hair was up from her neck to her tail plus a ruff of fur on her tail the pup was oblivious at this point
So this Heron spots them coming and like an angel of death it spread its wings and Nell jammed on the brakes Rosie like dodgem car goes crashing into the back of her followed by the pup so all crashed nose to tail and up this Heron comes towards the house .....Nell and Rosie are scrambling to get a grip on the path and turn towards home and the pup is still dazed by it all...
By this time the look of fear on Nell and Rosie's face and half whimpers coming out to get to the house before it eats them and in they fly in the door and Rosie was high pitch at this point. Think Nell was trying to compose herself and trying not to look so scared but I was laughing so much that Simon came down to ask what the hell was going off...It set me up for the day
Anyway here is Billy brother to Zorro Mum Ch Alport Spit Fire and Dad is Ch Stormbull So Wot
And here is Zorro , this was an amazing litter
And this is the lovely Diza sister to Vilma , Selma , Zorro and Billy a bit WOW hey

Been quiet
Been busy getting ready for Tilly and hope all goes well , Alport Tornado has been doing very well and has now passed his KC good citizens Gold award and has just turned 2 so what an achievement for him and his owners who have put all the hard work in ..He and Alport LockNLoad attended East Anglian show yesterday and made the top 5 in their classes so as long as your in there its brill
Then today I received pic's of Tag and OMG I know they had said they were having to curve his fitness level as he keeps going and how are we going to keep him like it LOL ...The fact we have to learn French commands and now seeing how fit he has become and all credit to his adoptive folk in France ...But here he is and not long now he will be back
Looking absolutely awesome we think

Had kind of held off
It didn't seem fitting to post whilst receiving the awful news about Buffy, I had actually posted pic's of her and the pup's but it didn't feel right so I removed them...I also aired a bit of frustration but I removed that at well as I got to thinking that I don't want people telling me they are happy with their lot and then moan and condemn what we do...If your so happy why criticize....So my aim is to do good vibes
When all those years ago we didn't set out to be a well known breeder if that's what we are and we didn't say right lets breed us a couple of Champions and some real nice dogs as we see it its been sheer luck anyway that we happen to purchase some good bitches and we did our best to compliment them. But maybe if your passionate about something sooner or later it has to come through for you, being persistent and consistent also and not losing sight of what you like
Well anyway we can't take a pat on the back for Sandstaff as Johan chose the sire for his now very awesome team and we figure it worked out very well
They had a marvelous weekend in Norway under 2 UK Championship judges
so the team Sandstaff Banditen aka Zorro His sister Sandstaff Brittania aka Vilma and Mum GB CH SUCH Alport Spit Fire aka Sall
Won 3 CC's 2 BOB 1 RBOB BIS-2 Junior BIS-3 which is very very good LOL
Very pleased and cant wait till we go over in July where I will be judging puppies and a huge honour for me
Also a mention to Sall and Tag's kids Dexter,Raif, Abba and Daisy who were 2 years old yesterday

RIP BUFFY (Alport shakaru) 30/03/2007 to 22/05/2010
Its with great sadness that I write about the beautiful Buffy, Sall and Ralphie's daughter .
She had a puppy stuck and she went to the vets for a C section in the end. Her heart stopped and she couldn't be revived leaving her poor owners with 4 new borns to take care of..They are still feeling very lost without her and fortunately a friend had a nursing bitch that has now fostered the puppies and all being well they seem to be thriving ...Vets can make mistakes as we at Alport know only to well and had Buffy's Grandma die after being spayed at the vets .....Its the fact that these vets often get away with it is the hardest bit to swallow for me
Will always remember you Buffy and I am glad I was able to spend some time with Bullblade SBT's last year in Spain
