Zanna’s puppies from march 2006 are growing up nicely. A happy friendly lot full of endless energy.
Every now and then we meet for walks with also “puppies” from earlier litters. These “Kakapo” walks are always lots of fun and great opportunities to take nice photos for this diary……. But I always forget to take my camera. Pffff. Finally today I had taken my camera with excellent intentions to make a good start again to keep up my diary again.
Yes today we had another “Kakapo” walk that we spent at Erkemederstrand. Here is their homepage for anyone wanting to go to a great dog beach that is open all year round http://www.erkemederstrand.nl
This time we even had extra special guests from the “van ‘t Wie Dach-ie kennel” who brought the cutest Croatian Lagotto puppy with them. She and Bella (alias Teddy) hit it off and after the walk they kept each other busy the whole time we were having dinner at the beach restaurant. They made typical “Lagotto noises” while teasing each other under the tables. If you have a Lagotto you’re bound to know what sounds I mean.
Cash and Dono made the usual “boy team” and played together during the whole walk. Boys will be boys and they can’t get enough of each other.
Youri, the big blond boy from Tieka’s second litter, was with us too along with his black poodle brother of 10 years. Its so nice to hold Youri’s large male head in your hands. Its so much more than my girly Lagotto heads. Much more fun to squeeze and cuddle, and he has the kindest expression.
Luna, Dono’s terrier sister, scuttles between all the much longer legged dogs enjoying being a member of such a large pack. She is very smart making extra sure she’s Kiwi’s friend. Its always a good idea to be friends with the biggest protector ;-) She used to be very close to my old Estrela Flecha and would cheer him on in any doggy disputes knowing she was backing up the strongest side.
Kiwi is always very glad to see “her Lagotto puppies”. When she meets them she rolls them around on the ground very pleased to see and tease them again. Bella and Kiwi clearly have the tightest bond. Whether it’s each others characters that fit together the best, or that Bella was with us for a longer time than the rest of the pups I’m not sure but it is very touching.
Vaglie, Tieka and Zanna are the “tennis ball girls”. The large pack is fun but it’s even more fun that there are more people to throw the ball for them. They run, swim, run, swim much more again and run till you would think it was enough…. And still they come back for more seeming never to tire.
After the walk the meal was great. Its fun to sit and talk with dog lovers.
It was a good turn out for the holiday time. And a good time to make photos…
IM SO SORRY BUT ……… when I turned on the camera the batteries were empty…. Waaaaa I could have cried. Hopefully Chase’s mum has made some nice photos to follow up this entry.
In the mean time 2 photo’s from a few months ago of the pups and owners in Groeneveld, a park near where we live.
