Winston and Anna are the proud Dad and Mom of Leyla, who is now 9 weeks old continuing to thrive. Leyla presenting herself as a confident, curious happy puppy with lots of nice movement.
Leyla was always on the move making picture taking a big challenge. For a premature puppy who struggled in the first few weeks of life, Leyla is showing promise of pretty, feisty confident little girl puppy.
This is the first time Leyla has been stacked ie to stand in a show position used in conformation at dog shows. Needless to say, Leyla was a little willful and stubborn in the beginning but with some bait, cheese/wiener and coaxing some stack positions were achieved. This was also Leyla's first time away from her home/owners.
You called my name ?
Catch me if you can ......
Where did that piece of cheese go, I know I saw it fall on that spot
Thats a long ways down
Don't think I want to go there ....
I like this backrest with a surround view ..
Anna has shown maternal instinct to clean and stimulate her puppy, Leyla.
Even at this young age this puppy loves to lie on her back with paws in the air. Weims are often seen lying on their backs when contented and very relaxed.
Introducing Waltz Leyla V RoseWin.
Winston, BISS Am/Can CH Ansons on the Rocks was bred to Am CH Waltz Anna V Silversmith on Feb. 7 /08. The breeding was successful with the US showing 6 - 8 puppies. Due to unforeseen circumstances Anna went into early labor, 10 days, resulting in loss of puppies except for one wee little female puppy with a strong instinct to survive. Anna unable to nurse the puppy left the nourishment of the puppy in the owners hands who are vigilantly bottle feeding this puppy with formula. As a result the girl puppy has thrived with daily weight gains. At 18 days, Leyla weighs in at 750 grams. See Winston's blog site for further details of this breeding.
