I thought I would start with the big announcement - EMMI IS IN SEASON!

| Ch Lumiturpa Emmi (Imp Fnl) |
Of course, that is good news, and she only made me wait 10 days longer this time, rather than her usual 30. But boy oh boy I am really not looking forward to the next three weeks. I do hate it when she is in and we are juggling her and the boys. Everyone is miserable (particularly the humans!), and the stress levels have us all reaching for the pain-killers on a frequent basis.
Last time was an exercise in bliss. Between my parent's house and mine, we had the boys in one and Emmi in the other with Schatje for company. No stress, no confinement! With me thinking "Wow, this is what people who don't have males must experience when their girls are in! This is EASY!"
Not so this time around. Emmi's repro vet is on the other side of town, and so over the next few days we will all move in with Mum and Dad for a couple of weeks.
Sorry Kulta! Sorry Louis! And there isn't even any fun in it for you this time.
Of course, the reason we need to be near her vet .......... is this time we are planning her last litter .......... and FINALLY Emmi x Ressi pups will hopefully be a reality.
This is potential Dad ......

The handsome Ressi lives with Taina and Ari in Peikkovuoren Kennels in Finland. I visited in 2007, enjoying a lovely few days and being very warmly welcomed .... and of course meeting Ressi in the flesh (which seemed to involve a fair bit of laughing at his antics!). Frozen semen from him followed a little while later, and we have just been waiting for the right time.
So finally ..... those long ago plans start to become a little closer to reality.
Just to get through the next few weeks!
