Tosca's puppies 1 month old

Time flies as the pups are already 4,5 weeks old. Tosca enjoys so much being mother. Here are some candid shots of the puppies and their nurses.

Tosca is in her element. She loves playing with the pups. And she loves being mother.

Martin became Norwegian Champion

Martin (Iosono Galileo Galilei) moved to Norway from Russia to live at Astrid in the beginning of the year. Astrid also has another Cirneco, Lundii (Biscotti Babetta) who is the cousin of our Tosca.

Now it was time to participate in a show in Norway and what a way: Martin was BOB and BIS4 at Podencoklubben's specialty show 18.8.2012. He also gained Norwegian CAC and became Norwegian Champion. Now he is the Champion of thirteen countries! Might be a world record? Lundii was BOS and our late Miki's (Iosono Michelangelo) granddaughter Biz (Bresars Barbarella at Biscotti) was BOB puppy and BIS3 puppy.

The day after there was held the Oslo International Show and Martin was BOB with CACIB and Lundii BOS & CACIB. I think Martin fulfilled the conditions to become FCI International Champion by gaining the CACIB. Congrats!

In a couple of days Martin will become father for the third time as Red Hawk's Beatrice (aunt to our litter D) is expecting puppies at Biscotti kennel.
