We have just returned from shows in Sweden. Firstly to Jönköping Int. with
mixed results. Unfortunately Elvis had a very poor encounter with the table
the first day, so we let him be shown on the ground the rest of the days,
which he is totally fine with. Scary how small incidents can leave great marks
in young puppies.
After the trip to Jönköping, we drove all the way to the Swedish Basenji
Speciality in Degeberga, for the breed specialist Mr. Jon Curby.
Krona (Kingwanas
Glory Of The Spotlight) 2nd in bitches 6-9 months (15 entered) and 3rd best
bitch (20 puppy bitches). Mille ( N u
Ch Kingwanas Entertaining Story) 3rd in open with ck.
Elvis (Kingwanas Groovy Maguire) did a nice
job, but wasn't placed in the huge class.
13.06:
At a show in Røros,
Krona (Kingwanas Glory Of The Spotlight) became
BOB and BIG-3 in competiton with 14 other pups in the group under judge
Marianne Holmli with a fantastic critique.
On the westcoast,
Roxy (Kingwanas Foxy Femme
Fatale) was BOB under judge Gro Bergh-Johannessen. She was not placed in the
HUGE BIS ring.
Congratulations to you both!
Now we are excited about going to the tripleshow in Sweden, followed by the
swedish speciality!

Back from a lovely weekend at NKK Kristiansand. Dag Christer was hired by the
kennelclub as their technical arranger, so he worked for most of the weekend.
We were met by a lovely hotelroom with strawberries and champagne... quite a
nice surprise!
I only showed sweet Kee-Kee,
and she was 2nd best bitch with Ck, beaten by a cute tricolor "Chewa".
Kee was unfortunatley a bit too thin at the time, and not in her best shape as
she had a tummy-ache. But she behaved beautifully as ever. Congratulations to
Mari Kendall for BOS, and Wenche and Baard with Aboteres Sharim for BOB. Well
done!
It was also supernice to meet gorgeous
Roxy
with owner Annika!
Now we are just very excited about our speciality in two weeks!!!

"Beautiful, well constructed, gorgeous and expressive head. Well set ears.
Excellent tail. Excellent body. Nice angulations. Stands and moves excellent

The easter has past, and we have been relaxing at home with nice walks with
our kids. Both the one on two legs, and all the cuties on four legs.
I've been celebrating my birthday, and it's been lovely getting so many warm
thoughts and nice wishes :-) Thank you!

One of my nice greetings. Thanks, Krona!
We are also getting wonderful reports from all of the 11 pups from this season.
Most of them has started puppycourses to learn obedience, and the feedback is
just wonderful.
This must be one of the best thing about being a breeder, to get reports that
all is well and everything seems to be going very smoothly!
They are about to turn 4 months, and two of the pups, Krona and Roxy are each
debuting in tha showring this coming weekend! It will be very exciting! Elvis,
Fogo and Tara will have their debut at Stange in the end of April. Most of

My second Basenji, Moyo. She is the full sister to our Century "Centa", but
from an earler litter. She was tragically taken away from us in a terrible car

hearts, and in addition she was BOS puppy at the Norwegian Basenji Speciality,
and was awarded with CC in the adult ring.

He thanks Choco for the hospitality by offering MANY kisses!
Thank you sooo much for taking care of little General a few days, Erling,

It was so nice to see them all play around, having fun!
Thank you so much for your hospitality, it is always sooo nice to visit! We

Sahara and
Groovy with pictures from today. We also have a small

Puppies from three different litters playing and having fun!


Doberguard's Coconut Clown- a BEAUTIFUL puppy!
Sindre with the puppies at right.
06.02:
Now we only have 4 puppies left here. It is both a bit sad, and a bit nice at
the same time. Having 11 puppies (and a baby) at once was LOADS of hard work,
but every little yodel, every little wagging tail, every cute face, every
excited and content new owner makes it ALL worth while! It is lovely getting
report that all the pups that's left has settled nicely in their new homes.
The pups that are still here at the moment are:
Foxy (from Lunas litter). She will be
picked up this monday, while The General and
Sahara will leave for their homes monday
the 15th. Due to change of plans, the handsome
GROOVY is still looking for a loving home of his own. This boy is very
special, and is very handsome too! He should be suitable for a show home. We
might be interested in co-ownership if the right home appears.

Kingwanas Groovy Maguire- looking for a new home!
We have also gotten a
greeting from Kasko in his new home!

homes!

Puppy playtime

Dennis- a Monster from above?? *lol* He is WONDERFUL with the pups.

Billy doesn't look a tad better, but even he is SUCH a great "foster dad",
letting the pups climb all over his big coat.

I am stronger than you!

Let's carry this Teddy over there and kill him, brother!


Dennis tries to stand nicely for a treat, Mille tries to sit nicely, and Kasko
is just in the way.
25.01: We have had some puppy buyers visiting again, and it is always so
nice. I am (as I've said previously) overwhelmed with the VERY nice families
offering their home and love for our babies. I am certain they will all go to
the best care and recieve (and give) plenty of love.
I have recieved some pics from one of the last visitors, Anette Vindvik,
You can see her photos
HERE.

22.01: 6 week photos of the G-litter
has been posted. We have also gotten the Fanconi test results for this litter.
There were more carriers then we hoped for, but it is good to know no one will
get affected (as we knew before the breeding occured).
The result (G-Litter):
Some of the puppies owners has been published. The rest will be published/decided
on Sunday or early next wee
Herewith are some pics of all 11 puppies:



20.01: New pics of the F-litter has been posted! Having 11 puppies at this
age is great fun. And LOADS of work. Not only do they produce massive amounts of
*youknowwhat* but they also demand individual cuddeling and training- which they
all get, keeping us occupied pretty much all day :-) It is worth it when you see
the wagging tails, the ears rolled back, the tiny little licking tongue not to
mention PUPPY YODELS!
Pile of puppies:

How many can you see?
17.01: In Letohallen this weekend
Kee-Kee (Doberguard's Master Key To Kingwana) was BOB on Saturday under
judge Denis Kuzelj. She was picked out in the "semi-finals" (top 6 ) in the
group, but not placed among the top 4.
On Sunday, she was 2nd best bitch with CC.
Co-owner Astrid handled her both days. Well done, girls!!


Astrid with her Kee-Kee!
15.01: 5 week photos of the G-litter has
been posted.
14.01: The two litters has been allowed to meet, and they just love to play
together!
I have made two videos of the litters:
Video of Sindre with the puppies
(and Sindre walking!).
Video of both litters playing
together!
12.01: New pictures has been posted of the
F-litter. All the puppies have now been preliminary booked to very good
and loving homes. I must say I feel very blessed with all of our puppy buyers,
who all seem to truly understand the breed and seem ready to offer them truly
wonderful homes. It makes us as breeders feel the burden of having to see all of
our "babies" go so much easier :-)
It is a real puzzle placing 11 different puppies to the right home, so there
might still be changes.
Many are going out in the show ring, and all are going to be highly beloved
family members!
If
you are looking for puppies, I highly recommend kennel
Bushongo
and kennel
Doberguard,
who currently have available puppies.

Oh, and I just have to
share this picture of Sindre and Mille playing.
08.01: Greeting form

08.01: A new photoshoot of Milles litter
has been posted today.I tried to stack them, but they are still too young. I
did take some "free- stacked" photos, though.
We have had some puppybyers on visit, and it is always so nice to have
them over! The puppies love to climb all over them! Ihave also posted
some "fun-pics" from Lunas litter.

Gunn with her lap full of Lunas babies. One of the girls will follow her
home in about a month.
05.01: New pics has been posted of the F-litter.
They are just soo cute now! The ears are starting to get up, as are the tails.
They are much more social, and wag their little tail as I walk in...
Milles litter are also wagging their little tails. I love to see the little
differences between the litters. Milles litter talk much more then Lunas litter.
Lunas litter are more active at the moment, but that is only natural as they are
older. Pictures of Milles liter will be posted in a few days.
Playing with Sindre. They all LOVE it!
01.01: We start the new year with videos of both litters:
Lunas litter 0-3 weeks
Milles litter 0-3 weeks
Pictures can be seen HERE.
