A day like today is one of the best in breeding hobby, I am very happy and proud to be able to celebrate six 12 year old hoviveterans from Tallivahdin A-litter. They all have lived a long, healthy and happy life and every minute from now on is piriceless. Hopefully they will be older than their parents and live healthy also the rest of their lives. From our 11 A-puppy there are still going strong bitches Ameise (Venla), Anemone (our neibourgh Ronja), Anliegen (Sara), Augenweide (Saga) ja urokset Anbeter (Jasu) and Aufpasser (Obelix). MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE LOVELY VETERANS AND ALSO TO THEIR OWNERS WHO HAS MADE A MARVELLOUS JOB IN TAKING CARE OF THEIR HOVIS!
