Well our little man left this morning for his final vet clearance and then he's off to the airport for his trip to his new home. He wasn't happy this morning. Separated from his sisters, a bath, nails done and then kept inside so he wouldn't get dirty. And the look he gave us when we put him in the crate.

We hope that his new owner, Nicky, will get as much pleasure from him as we have in the short time he was with us. He's such a sweet and gently boy with what we thought was great sound movement. :wub:

Here's his 6 week pics.





Now to sort out the girls.

Cheers

Toni

He is lovely. Is he one of the Cooper babies?

Aaaaw, Toni, he is lovely.

A lovely puppy, I bet his new owners will be thrilled with him :wub:

Yes, a Cooper and Blue (Ch R. Hope N Glory IID) baby. I used Cooper over 2 unrelated and different bitches but in both litters, got gorgeous males. I found this quite interesting. And Blue being half American was a whole new ball game.

Having trouble deciding on the girls. Might post the pics and you guys can give me your 20cents. The boy was just a standout from the beginning but we need girls to carry on.

Cheers

Great looking pup Toni- good luck with him in his new home. Fingers crossed he goes on and is another lovely dog like his Dad.

What a lovely boy he is Toni, you must be very proud to have sent such a nice puppy off to his new home. Please add pictures of the girls, then we can help you choose!!!!

Rush, (Ridgesetter Pacific Blue) arrived safe and well late last night into Auckland and then had a drive home with his new owner, Nicky Sill of Rushndol Whippets. He's been outside to meet his new family this morning and helped Nicky type a message to me.



It's always a relief when you know they have arrived and all is well.

Will send girls through later.

Cheer

I'm actually a bit jealous Toni .... not that we are disappointed with our Cooper babies at all, we think they are fantastic ... but we were longing for something with no stripes, and I particularly was hoping for one Cooper's colour and marking - but Cara put her stripey bits on all four of 'em. (w00t)

I've finally got around to registering ) The wee man is safe and sound and having a grand time. He has discovered the toy box and the savoury delights of horse-poo o

I am so wrapt with this pup, thankyou so much Toni. Apart from all the other stunning things about him... he has the nicest front assembly, pasterns and paws that I have seen in many years.

Rush has really come out of his soft natured skin though and tears around the house like a lunatic. He likes the burmese cat but is very wary of the sadistic tonkinese.

He already chases every moving object - including water from the hose, so he should enjoy lure-coursing when he grows up a bit.

A very exciting puppy in all ways.

 

[aslan]

Welcome Nicky!

Look forward to seeing and hearing more about Rush as he grows.

 

[elmaro]

Love him :wub: :wub:

Blue and Cooper I think will be very proud of this one!

Good luck with him

Elly and Cooper

Nice to see the little Rush arrived safe & Sound he looks lovely (Great name To ) i have a Rush.

Would be nice to see pictures of him as he grows & heads into the show ring?

Looking forward to seeing the bitches Toni.

Rush has his first shows on March 13th and 14th. I think the judges will have all of 3 nanoseconds to examine him before he runs off, very active wee fellow. I am quite looking forward to a completely humiliating experience as I will only have the two pups with me :wacko:

I'll keep you posted.
