Return to Fairytails22 Litter (Taft X Kyra)

Pupdate Calendar

• Born 11/8/22, day 63 after Taft’s arrival at Wayeh.
• Day 1 Mom gets 3-days Panacur/Safeguard (Fenbendazole 22%) the same as she had 63 days ago @ time of breeding. Mom’s diet is, and has been, ProPlan All Life Stages 30/20, plus Puppy-Bac by Dogzymes, & raw free-range eggs from my chickens, and twice-weekly chicken quarters (from the grocery, hopefully)
• The Taft x Kyra (Fairytails ’22 Litter) pups are 1wo. We had a rocky start, but we now have 5 healthy pups, 1 male & 4 females, all grays, all with snippets on their foreheads. So I resorted to paper tape collars for one of the rare times, since they are so hard to tell apart.. I’m planning to keep the boy ad a girl, I may have 1-2 other girls placed. So I may have 1-2 girls available. Mom and dad look so much alike (they share the same phenotype, or physical structure, but nothing in common in their pedigree (10-generation outcross.) Taft is out of a Polish CH and his mom is a Rockin’ Maples CH in NC. Kyra is out 11th generation down through Maestro on her dam Mensa’s side and Amak on her sire TD’s side. Her great grandfather was our Czech boy Brady.
