Spring updates at Paint River

Hello Everyone,

Sorry I haven’t been giving too much updating lately… been very busy around here with full house renovations and many dogs to train! So this week both Pixel and Omiimii are in heat. This is Omiimii’s first heat at 16 months old. Omi will not be bred most likely until a year from this winter but we will see. Pixel has a couple reservations on her next litter, which providing her next heat is on time should be conceived sometime in October. Then there’s Widget… the long awaited Widget litter! Widget was not bred this winter due to skipping a heat. We are hoping she will be coming into heat between now and the summer with the plans of a winter litter for she as well. Widget also has a couple reservations.

We all look forward to having a little llew pup for cute moments like these.

Paint River’s Spark Plug has moved south!!

My adorable little Spark Plug has moved south to quail country….. this was a very hard pup to let go of….. reminds me so much of her mom— Widget. Super little girl!! We drove down to New York City to meet her lovely new mom, Lauren at LGA airport so Spark Plug could fly to Texas in the cabin with her mom. Here is a photos of Spark Plug— one with her new momma and another of her checking out the view from the truck on the way down to the big city.

Merry Christmas from The Gizmos Litter: Llewellin Setter puppies!!

Hello Everyone!  I’m sorry that I have not had more videos as intended…. I cannot get my Quicktime videos to upload from my computer to youtube. Keeps telling me that my username or password is invalid, meanwhile I’ve changed both on every device 10x to try to get it to work. It takes literally hours for me to upload one of these one minute videos onto youtube from my computer within the youtube channel itself so until I can figure out what’s going on…. looks like 100 photos for every video right now which is not what I prefer but it is the best I can do. So here’s a photo gallery to enjoy. Please click on a photo to enter then hit the side button to scroll thru all the photos. Merry Christmas.
