Sunday Handsome Friends Bold to the Bone "Noah" went to his new owners. He behaved excellent on his way to his new home in Someren. Also the introduction with the cats Doezel and Lexie went perfect.

The other boys were allowed to play in the straw field. They went crazy.

July 24th

While Gabrielle (owner Kynologisch Centrum Kynospirit) judged the puppies her almost two years old daughter Tsuya was busy with treats, handling and cuddling the puppies. With a bowl of water mixed with curds, treats and snacks she was the puppies best friend. Such a cute sight.

Yesterday the boys played by the water again and had a lot of fun.

July 22nd

The weather was really bad yesterday so the boys had to stay inside. They walked through the house all day long. At the end of the day they were allowed to explore the stables and play in the straw. They had so much fun!

July 21th

Yesterday the boys had ladies visit. Benthe came with her owners Natasja and Arno. They even brought a present for Dazzle, Masai and Koh I Noor! Everybody had a great time and Benthe was so sweet with the boys.

July 20th

Friday we went with the boys to the water together with Sylvia and her great labrador Quincy. The puppies did very well; very easy going, not afraid of strange dogs and immediately started to explore. 

In the afternoon we had a visit from a lady of the NCDH ....she was very satisfied! A lot of reasons to be proud of the boys!

Saturday our good friends Marco and Angelique came to help us socialize the puppies at the centre. The puppies behaved as if they had been there before many times and reacted perfectly to all the people, kids, baby buggies, wheelchairs, strange sounds and objects. They  cuddled with a lot with all people. 

In the afternoon Judith and Erik (First Forest) came agian, always great fun.

July 14th

Enzo got a visit from his new owners yesterday. It was a little bit cold outside so the puppies slept on our laps, they're spoiled already. 
In the afternoon we made standing pics of the boys. The first two we're very easy but the last two puppies only wanted to run and play. Handsome Friends Bo Darya-Ye Noor wasn't interested in any treat so sadly a less nice picture of him.

July 13th

In the afternoon they were allowed to walk loose in the small living room and the office. So they had something exciting to explore. Before they went to sleep they read the newspaper.

Before the puppies were born we bought a pink Dora play tent, but we can't have the boys playing in that! So now they have a cool tent with cars on it, they immediatly showed their visitiors how brave they are. At night the puppies could rest in their new basket. 

July 3rd

We've fenced a big pen in the grass yesterday. Now the puppies can run and play as much as they want, so much joy!

Mom and kids are doing great!! The puppies already dare to go out of the whelping box by themselves (making a lot of noise of excitement).

June 20th

Yesterday we moved the puppies from the "nursery room" to the big living room. Now they can go out of the whelping box and explore the big pen. In the evening they have a small pen in the room next to the tv, so it's cosy for everyone.

- Handsome Friends Bo Darya-Ye Noor

June 17th

Yesterday the puppies played together for the first time, such a wonderfull spectacle to watch. Since a few days we have a strip of newspapers next to the Drybed® in the whelping box and they have already started to pee on it. They are such smart boys!

June 16th

All the boys opened their eyes, so cute! They also already can walk very good. They are becoming to look like real little doggies, so delightfull!

June 15th

The second week passed in a rush, the puppies enter their third week. Today we dewormed them, the boys didn't like it at all. They flushed the bad taste away with mommy's milk, much tastier.

June 14th

Everything is going really well with Koh I Noor and her boys. We enjoy the miracle in de welpingbox! The puppies like the different pluche toys. They also like  to lay in our arms or on our lap.

June 13th

The spots of the puppies are becoming more visible, so nice! When we clean the whelping box the boys are put in a basket and then they crawl all over each other! Martine's good friend visited us and cuddled all the pups in her lap. She gave Dazzle, Masai, Koh I Noor and the puppies a basket full of presents! We have also received quite a few postcards. Thank you all so much!!

June 12th

All puppies are already 2 pounds!! They sleep longer between drinking so Koh I Noor gets her food in a activityball or a brain game for a bit of distraction. She also wants to walk longer now.

Day 10:

Day 11:

June 10th

Today we removed the bars out of the whelping box. The boys are so big now they often got stuck. You already see some spotting. Especially on their belly, nose and ears. 

Juni 9th
The boy's are growing very fast and crawl powerfully through the welpingbox. We enjoy it! Koh I Noor is a bit hot so we are cooling her with wet towels and a coolbandana. She is such a great mum!

June 8th
The first week is over. Yesterday we cut the nails of the boys for the first time. Now they can drink at mommy's milkbar without damaging her. 

June 7th

Today is already the last day of the boys first week. The guys are growing really well and look very satisfied. They climb over their mom and crawl on your lap. We're so happy with them! 

June 6th

The puppies are doing great!! Of course we've made a lot of pictures, it was hard to select some. We hope you can enjoy them a little with us with this selection.

Day 4:

Day 5:

June 5th

Sorry for a little late update in English. We had some heavy days. Monday evening Koh I Noor delivered an other baby boy! Already twentyfour hours after his brothers but this guy was still alive. He was a bit weak and needed some help but soon he fed by himself and looked healthy and satisfied. Sadly after a while he lost weight, became weaker and despite the heat lamp he became cold. We brought him to the vet who tried to save him by giving him glucose by a probe every hour, extra heat etcetera but at 00.30 hour Handsome Friends Best Kept Secret died. We are so sad, it was such a great boy and a fighter. But the birth took too long, he was too tired and had to fight too much so young. We have already lighted a candle for him. Tomorrow we will bury our little fellow. Rest in peace sweety. 

June 2nd
We are totally over the moon! Koh I Noor gave birth to four very special boys! She did a very good job and is a super mom! We were waiting for puppy number five but it stayed with 4 puppies. De boys are very active and drinking very good. They gained in weight already! The vet came to visit us to check mother and children and for now  they looked very healthy.
Koh I Noor, grandfather Dazzle, grandmother Masai en we are very proud!

May 26th

Pfew....today Koh I Noor is eight week pregnant. The puppies are very active, we feel and see them move a lot. For Koh I Noor it's tougher now, sometimes she lies down and groans softly and now and then she's a bit restless. The welping box is a nice place for her now, she sleeps in it often. Yesterday she got her second and last herpes vaccination and in the afternoon we put a bed next to the whelping box. The puppies are expected at the end of the week, we are ready for it!!

May 19th

Seven weeks pregnant, time flies!! Koh I Noor is still very active, likes to join us on the daily walks and enjoys the nice weather in the garden (she uses the "pool" as a big water bowl). She lies steched out being pregnant in the room a lot. Meanwhile she is becoming pretty thick and loves it to sit with you as you can see on the pictures. 

May 16th

Yesterday we put the whelping box in the living room. Dazzle, Masai and cat Pinkie really like it, Koh I Noor isn't very interested. This morning she was in it for a while, as long as we are sitting with her it's fine. 

May 12th

Another week has passed, Koh I Noor is exactly six weeks pregnant today. We increase her food little by little. When she can't sleep at night and at 23.30 o'clock is still messing around the house to see if there is something to snatch we know she needs some extra food during the day. Her belly is growing but she still looks lovely, our gorgeous lady. We often try to feel the puppies but we've not yet succeeded. But it's still early for that, maybe in the course of the week. Of course we've made some picture's the last few days of the mommy to be. 

May 5th

Koh I Noor is pregnant for five weeks already! She feels great and her belly is growing steadily! We notice that during our walks her behavior towards other dogs is changing; normaly she gets aquainted at once and often starts running and playing, but now she stays more in the background. She's hungry too...really hungry!! She is quite active again and sleeps less than during the first weeks.

We have taken out the whelping box and cleaned it. Of course we have done some wonderful shopping, we have now bought most of the neccesary things.

We've also got lots of new toys, although granddad Dazzle reckons you never have enough!!

May 1rst

Koh I Noor got a postcard from her labrador friends! It made her laugh very much!

April 30th

Today we went with Koh I Noor to the vet for the last ultrasound check. Dazzle and Masai needed their vaccination and came with us so they could see their grandkids. Also this time everything looked fine. It remains a special sight; new life and little heartbeats in Koh I Noor's belly.

April 24th

We're totally over the moon; an ultrasound confirmed that Koh I Noor is pregnant!! She already has a little belly and sleeps more than normal. We nearly can't believe it. From now on we can only cross our fingers for a prosperous pregnancy and delivery and of course healthy, sweet, nice and lovely puppies.

April 4th

We're back home safe and sound from our trip to the fertility specialist with Koh I Noor. The whole process went perfect. Koh I Noor behaved very well and enjoyed being alone with us on a trip. We are very satisfied with the good care of the specialist and want to thank her very much!

If Koh I Noor is pregnant the puppies are expected the second half of week 22nd. Exciting!

March 6th

Time for cake today! The frozen semen of the hopefully daddy to be of the Handsome Friends B litter (Ch. Merry Go Round Mach Ten) arrived safe and sound in Europe today.
Now we must wait for Koh I Noor. We don't think it will take much time before she will start her season.
