Congratulations Sally and Scot!

Sally and Scot are proud to announce the arrival of the first Melodale litter on 2nd April 2009.

Their new family consists of one tri coloured boy, two tan and white boys, and a tan and white girl.

Mum, Dad and babies are all doing well, as is their owner, Elaine, otherwise known as Nanna Beagle!

Two puppies will be staying with us, Holly (Melodale Outback Daffodil), the tan and white girl, and Hamish (Melodale Stockman), the tri-colour boy.  Spencer (Melodale Ridgy Didge),one of the tan and white boys is going to his new home in Queensland, where he will be living with Marianne, Shayne and their two sons, and Jake (Melodale Fair Dinkum), the other tan and white boy, will be going to Wheelers Hill to live with Laurie and Heidi.

Whilst I love my tan and whites, and I will be very sad to see both the boys going away to live in their new homes, I have decided that Hamish is the boy to stay.  He is beautifully marked, nicely built, so far is very neat and compact, and has a lovely gentle nature.

Holly, who is a very pretty tan and white girl, is also a very nice, compact little girl so far, and also has a very sweet nature, and loves just cuddling up close, although she can hold her own in a scrap with her brothers, and puts them in their places when she needs to.

More news about the kids will be put on the Girls and Boys pages in the future!  Holly and Hamish will start their show careers early in July 2009, that will be fun, and is something for us to look forward to!

Congratulations Sally and Fergus!

Sally (Ch Teviot Gracious Melody) and Fergus (Ch Teviotdale Drovers Dream) are proud to announce the safe arrival of their litter on 21/2/2011.  

Two boys and a girl were born, unfortunately the first born, a boy, died after about 20 minutes, from birth complications,

which was very sad, but we have two healthy puppies for Sally to mother and love.  And she does that very well!

Both puppies will be staying with me for a while, to see how they shape up for the showring and possible future breeding.

Melodale Drovers Delight, pet name Dee Dee, is a feisty little girl, into everything, bossy with her brother, and very up front with Uncle Scot, takes no rubbish from him!  A very self-assured little girl, a bit naughty when it comes to stacking and walking on a lead - it will be fun to see how she progresses in the ring in a few weeks from now - I think I will have my work cut out for me with this one!

Melodale Drovers Mate, pet name Drover (just for Diana Seelenmeyer who always thought Fergus should have been called Drover!), is a lovely young boy.  He has the most adorable personality, and is definitely so far the more compliant of the two puppies.  He is likely to end up being the hen-pecked one in the group - as all the girls push him around.  On the odd occasion he retaliates, and then look out world, he's all boy when he wants to be!  I am looking forward to working with him in the show ring, as so far, he is the easier of the pair to train, always wanting to do whatever you ask of him.  I'm hoping he matures like his father, who is a lovely boy, and if he does I will be very happy!

The two terrorists will make their show ring debut on 21st May, 2011, and I can't wait for the fun to start!
