NINA

Nina was the result of a fortunate and exciting frozen semen breeding to Multi Ch. Timanka's Expensive Money from Denmark. We were thrilled when the ultrasound initially showed six puppies, but just a few days before her due date, only three were visible. Chanel then went two days past her expected whelping date, and I became concerned as she was restless but showing no clear signs of labor. My reproductive veterinarian advised that, if it would give me peace of mind, we could proceed with a C-section rather than risk an emergency situation. So, in the middle of a terrible storm, I made the one-hour drive, and we welcomed three beautiful puppies into the world, safe and sound.

Nina has grown into a sweet, happy girl who enjoys everyday activities, loves showing in the ring, and keeps us laughing constantly with her playful antics. She has also gone through some amusing growth stages, but she seems to be adjusting gracefully to her new size. Her movement is flawless, with beautiful reach and drive that allows her to move efficiently and effortlessly. Her head is still developing and becoming nicer each day, and I believe the final result will be very pleasing. The same can be said for her eye color, which continues to darken beautifully as she matures.
