Sleeping on the Job
Ana – Alta-Tollhaus Havana (Zamp Thermodos x Maika) has a new job and already she is sleeping on the job. Allie had to be taken away from her puppies, she kept allowing them to nurse and was not drying up, as everytime they would nurse the milk would come back in. So, to help Allie out, Ana signed-up to take over Motherly duties and when she isn’t sleeping she is having fun with the puppies. Grandmum Funny helps out too
Unlike Allie, Ana has no problem letting them know that there is no milk bar.
Two for one—some loving fromMonica and escaping the throngs of puppies:

I have the SV reports back on Alta-Tollhaus Gavin (X Box dei Precision x Faye vom Kirschental), Alta-Tollhaus Havana, and Alta-Tollhaus Heike (Zamp Vom Thermodos x Maikali vom Kirschental) all three are A-Normal Elbows and A-Normal Hips. YEAH!!!
Alta-Tollhaus Halley has her radiographs done and are ready to send to the GSDCA-WDA after the office is relocated in April. The radiographs are sent to the GSDCA-WDA and they send them to the SV. Halley’s xrays also look good.
I just went to see if the Zuchtwert numbers were up for Gavin, Havana, and Heike and found some surprises. The biggest is Brady – Alta-Tollhaus Epic ZW number has been lowered to 68!!! Congratulations Michelle! When I am shopping for stud dogs it is very hard to find a dog with a ZW number in the 80′s or lower, many are in the 90′s or higher. Another pleasant surprise is Maikali’s ZW number is now at 71.
