YES YES YES YES THEY ARE PREGNANT !!!!!!!!

Most of the people i know are aware of the bad luck i had with my shelties litters and that Denyah was not pregnant last year.

Well it seems that this time it will be diferent. Today i went to do an ultrasound to Qhila to know if she is pregnant and i took Denyah along just for the company as her's was schedule for friday. Well the vet decided to do an ultrasound to both of them since i was so excited to know if they were pregnant or not. THEY ARE BOTH PREGNANT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is Qhila's ultrasound. We could see 4 little shelties, unfortunatly it is not possible to see the colour and the sex ihihihihih

This is Denyah's one. They look smaller because she has 5 days less of pregnancy than Qhila. The vet saw 6 laekenois.

I am over the moon. All this would not be possible without the support of my friends. In fact in life family and friends are the best we have. A special thanks to Bianca & Jacco from the Skeldale Kennel, Marcella from Danwville, Serge and Tine from d'Eroudur and all the others that in a way or another supported me and believe that all would be possible. Also a special thank you to my dear Bunny that saw the money going out the bank and manage to hold herself together and not kill me ahahahhahahahah

Quila was mated to Trevor here are some pictures from him.

Denyah was mated to Enzo

Golegã 2009

One of my favourite time of the year is the Golegã horse festival. A festival dedicated to the horse and specially to the portuguese breed the Lusitano :)

As every year all the family went to spend some days at Golegã to ride horses, be with friends and have a lot of fun with the true portuguese spirit.

Henrique that as been going to Golegã since the year he was born is very anxious to start riding is own horse... Maybe next year :)

Henrique, me and Sete e Picos a Lusitano owned and breed by our friend Eng. Capela. It was our hourse during the festival that we took with us :)

We stayied with our friends from Quinta do Trevo (http://www.quintadotrevo.com/)

1 house; 13 people; 7 Dogs; 7 horses. Quinta do Trevo managed the transportation for Sete e Picos and took care of him while he was at the festival. A very very special thanks to Toninho and Andreia that were fantastic and took care of Isabela during the week while i was working !!!

Can't get more crazy then this !!!!!!!!!!!! Everytime is a good time to celebrate even inside the horse trailer :)
