Our lively little darling Assunta now weighs 1230g and will be 4 weeks old tomorrow. Here´s her trying to get at her mummys food.

A cool dude! And so much fun....

Trying to establish a positive image for the IRWS not only as great pointer but as an ideal family dog in Austria. We presented Ruby on stage at the Hunting Dog Show run by the Salzburger Jagdgebrauchshundeklub. It was great fun and we got a lot of positive feedback. And we came home with a new hat!

Assunta, our cute, playful wee sweetie pie, despite her peeing on the carpet!

Amaan and his happy new owner. He is to be moving in with a cross flatcoated retriever.

Ruby´s puppies were born today one month ago. Just look at the size of them now!!! When they were born their eyes and ears were closed and life consisted of drinking and sleeping. They couldn´t even carry out their bodily functions alone, they only pooed and wee´d when Ruby massaged their bellies by licking them. They were lovely then, they are lovely now, more loviness to come i am sure.

Welpenbrei Schlacht! They ended up with porridge all over themselves and in every orifice!

Appleblossom, the little girl with a big character. She had to fight her way through her bigger siblings to get to the milk source which has made her a tough little cutie with the heart of a lion.

She wouldn´t sit still for a photo!

What with the puppies, the children and the visitors, the living room has changed somewhat!
