 21 / 02 / 10      Bella’s Dutch Holiday

Bella has spent an enjoyable week in the Netherlands visiting Matu Woscany, which we hope will produce a lovely spring litter. There are new photos of the gorgeous Matu on our plans page here. The day before we departed for Holland, we went along to the annual Leo Club Valentines Day party where the lads from the C litter gathered for a photo call. It was a fun day and the highlight surely must have been the fancy dress parade, won by young Balthazar in his full Coeur De Lion regalia.

We have updated our plans page with information on the planned litter between our Bella- Lionscourt Belisana and her intended, Matu Woscany. You can read more about it and see the handsome Matu here.

All of the C litter lads are now in their new homes and the house has gone eerily quiet. The pups, who for some odd reason have all got pet names starting with “B”, have all settled in well and I hope to find the time to set up their details on our site.  We look forward to our first puppy reunion in February.

Our breeding plans for next year have had to be changed, unfortunately,  due to the stud dog suffering a serious injury. We understand that “Romeo” is doing well and wish him a full and timely recovery. I will be posting news of our revised plans as soon as things are settled. This will be our Bella, Lionscourt Belisana’s first litter. You can see her details here.

The C litter pups are now 8 weeks old and will soon be off to their new homes. They have been a very outgoing and content litter and we will certainly miss them. They had their vet check today and official weigh in. As expected, they are big lads, with weights between 9.5 Kilos through a whopping 12 kilos. I have added a final batch of photos to the C Litter picture gallery.

On the 14th of October our third litter arrived. The pups were very large, 550 to well over 700 grams in weight. Unfortunately, we had two breech presentations which lead to a c-section. Ellie is doing very well and has been an excellent mother, but sadly, we lost the 2 little girls she was carrying. We are pleased that the four big boys are doing so very well and growing at an amazing rate. All are spoken for an eagerly awaited in their new homes. You can see weekly photo updates here.

In the new year, we are planning on mating our younger bitch Bella, Lionscourt Belisana. We are in the process of finalising our choice of stud dog and details will follow. If you are interested in contacting us about a Lionscourt pup, please give us a call, You can find our contact details here.

5 weeks ago, our Ellie, (Altonastigens Esmeralda), enjoyed a romantic holiday with a fine upstanding young Leonberger gentleman called Zeus, (Sylberts Emperor Ridge at Sancholees). After the run of bad luck we have had, we  are very happy to confirm that her scan showed 8 healthy pups. They are due mid October and we are eagerly  preparing for busy times ahead. If you want to have a look at Zeus, you can see him here.

In other news, our Rufus, (Lionscourt Arcturus), had developed the tell-tale signs of Laryngeal Paralysis in the spring, so in June he visited the Royal Veterinary College and had a tie-back procedure. He has made a full recovery and is back to his happy bouncy self. You can see how Rufus is looking in his stylish new trim here.
