Baby Trooper

 "Britebay Devil Bent"
Born 11 November 2009

9 weeks

I first met our darling boy at the tender age of 4 weeks. As I held the tiny pup to my check he made a little sound I'll never forget ~ a high-pitched squeak "ung nyung" along with a couple of affectionate licks to say hi. 

Trooper is fully grown now. He still greets us with this unusual sound ~ now a lower pitched "nyong gyong" which seldom fails to have us laughing. Asha is trying to copy the sound too which is funny because she hasn't quite got it yet!

Baby Asha

"Carlandy Real Rhythm"
Born 22 February 2009


Our little girl at 4 weeks!

"Reba (Asha) is a lovely blue who has only been out to two shows so far beating her litter sister Penny at the last show, and winning best baby at the most recent show. Reba has a lovely cockery personality and of lovely type, she has a great front, topline and bone and we are looking forward to watching this youngster mature" ~ breeder's website 

Little Asha went briefly to another home before we adopted her at 7 months of age.
