This is Georgio, well George!, the latest arrival at home. He was the only puppy in the litter but is turning out to be superb. He oozes quality, substance, great angulation, spring of rib and pleasing head so far. On this page you can watch him grow and follow his show career. See his parents and pedigree below.   Heinaaron Gioia di Natale SV04 V05 EUV06 x Sentling Aquerino with Zakro At 4 months old Enzo came back for a holiday whilst his new parents headed off to Italy to visit family for 10 days, once passported Enzo will be joining them in his native homeland. He had a fabulous time with his canine family and has matured very nicely for his age.       Pedigree of George 18.10.07 Apologies for the lack of pictures of George but the camera is a little sick! George has now moved to his new home and is doing great! He is thriving on his natural diet and is being very well socialised. He's so far been clothes shopping to an exclusive shop but unfortunately felt the need to christen the floor, he visited the Butchers in Cardiff market and felt the need to do the same!!! He's been to the Bay to visit the ducks, Rest bay to see the sea and many other places which he takes all in his stride. Last Saturday Myself, Miska and Ellie went to visit him. Miska worked the whole of downstairs until she found him snuggled on the sofa with Antonio. Bless him, he was beside himself with excitement and it was a very happy re-union between mother, son and auntie! It didn't take long for him to remember the milk bar!!! and he soon settled down for a little tipple at the bar! Miska being a caring mother gave him one more feed and with a very intense look of concentration George settled down for a good feed. At 11 weeks he's a little old but to him it is liquid gold. Will Miskas udders return in time for Kortrijk in Nov??? Ah well, as long as he's happy! Well here we are at 7.5 weeks old, George is thriving. His life is probably different from most pups this age due to being an only child. Since he was able to walk he has chosen to be out with the big girls and join the pack. Instead of having other pups to play with he has to make do with his mum for someone to beat up, Ellie is the strict Autie, she keeps him in his place, Parsley he likes and she is happy for him to play around him, Bronte cocker thinks he is a wonderful playmate but for George best of all is Dillon cocker, my old boy who normally is a bit of a grumpy old git!! but George thinks he is a god and Dill is more than happy for George to crawl over him. George sits in the kitchen while I cook, has his little blanket in the garden and if you turn your head he is away up the steps to join the big girls up the garden. He is absolutely fearless, totally. Hopefully I will get the chance to take better pics over the weekend but here are some of George beating up his mum and of him devouring a scrummy lamb shank and a chicken wing!, yes at 7 weeks old George is eating whole wings and is loving them. So far in Georges experimentation of food he is thoroughly enjoying lamb, rabbit, chicken, beef, eggs, liver, heart, lamb and beef bones, raw goats milk, cottage cheese, and also his daily cooked carrot, broccoli, sweet potato, cauliflower, peas, green beans, rice, spaghetti, banana, blackberries. etc. So as you can see, if a 7 week old pup can love and thrive on this diet then it must be right. I am absolutely chuffed to bits with him, his head is beautiful and so like his mum. Having chosen to stay true to type in breeding I continue to produce a dog typical of my foundation bitch Heinaaron Tuo Tulipano (imp Fin) so kindly loaned by Teija Kuusisto in Finland to whom I will be eternally indebted.          George tackles his first bone and loves it!! (6 wks)  George at 5 weeks   George at 4 weeks   George at 3 weeks   George at 18 days |
