Summer days

For once we ourselves did not do any shows the last month, but have been working on building all dog runs instead. However out in the world other Lapinlumons were showing off and at the international show in Bremen in Germany Lapinlumon Nasti won BOB and CACIB with Lapinlumon Tähtikukka winning BOS, CAC and CACIB as well. This was Nasti´s final CACIB which also gave him the title C.I.B. International champion! Nasti is owned by Jordie Holtman in Holland and Tähti is owned by Lykke Sørensen in Denmark, congratulations both.

When not building at home we are enjoying time with our puppies. Daniel and Elmeri are participating in almost everything going on here and are very good at stealing tools and other useful stuff...... The lagotto puppies are now so big that they come outside to play several times a day. Not long till they move to their own homes. Underneath a photo of lovely little girl Lapinlumon Perla who will be joining old friend Sanna and family in Oulu in few weeks time. I promise to try and get time to groom them all and get proper photos of them soon....

Our F litter lapphund puppies out of Nasti and Ilo are growing a lot now too and I REALLY like this litter. Some really beautiful puppies and extremely even in type and looks. They have been out to play the last days too and they are a brave little bunch, actually much more brave than the lagottos even if they are 2 weeks younger :-)  I will try and get to make some photos of them soon, but it has been raining the last days non stop. A few promising boys from this litter still need a home of their own so contact us if interested.

We have also mated a couple of bitches and fingers crossed for puppies early fall of both lapphunds and lagottos; some interesting combinations, but let´s see if it works out or not.

Will end this posts with a few relaxing shots of Daniel enjoying lazy summer days with Esther (before the rain came...)
