Remy is not being bred

 I usually like to keep my blog very light detailing my experiences with my dog but it has come to my attention there is a very serious uproar on various boards about this issue. Hopefully this will resolve your concerns. 

 Remy recently began her first estrus cycle. After reading a book called "grow You Pup With Bones" I thought it would be not only a good idea but advisable to breed remy on her first heat. I told my brother who is a Boerboel breeder and he told me that I should give it some thought. I told him I had and wanted to go forward. Upon further considderation and research I found that while some of what I read had merit that nothing could be lost by waiting and that the results of proceeding had too many questions and unknowns.

I am learning and Remy is growing

It has been awhile, but since my last post not much has been going on, Remy is now 8 1/2 months old and things are starting to happen.
First I would like to congratulate Pluto, Remy's father for achieving the Shutzhund AD, I believe there is some video posted at superbreeds.biz. Look for Remy to give it a try next year.
Well lets see Remy has continued her training and is very responsive she has learned, how to heel, sit, auto sit, sit stay, down and down stay. I am very proud of her progress so far and I am looking forward to furthering her education.
Last week Remy began her first heat, I have been expecting it but I must admit that I was still caught a little surprised. As far as her socialization Remy has continued to due very well so my earlier concerns about her behavior has been put to rest. Remy is very protective at home but she is extremely passive when we are out around town.
The above picture was taken a few weeks back at Boerboel family day at the park, every so often my brother gets as many of the puppies as he can together for a day at the park, it is a good time for all of the owners to get together and compare notes.
