A long over due Hello!

Hello everyone, I am sorry for not being around on here for so long, life is very busy for us at the moment and not going to shows this year seems to have given so much more time that we are just busier than ever. Still having to go to the hospital far too often too, please remember even though I am not on here as much if needed I am always at the end of the phone, so shout if you want me.
The Blitzan family have been enjoying the lovely sunny weather, especially recently, no rain as yet, just sunny sky's and much cooler, makes it much more fun for the dogs, now it's cooler and more fun for me with it being dry, they come home clean!!!
Well done to all who have been winning, Karen and Mazy there's no stopping you, winning Post Grad you will soon be up into Limit, well done, also to Kathy and Gertie, I hope her foot has healed, and to Keith and Tess, Carol and Jasper, Sandra and the fulaluv gang, we are proud of all our family and extended family. Not forgetting Tracy and Blue in Australia who have been out winning CC's and Best dogs and all sorts.

Diva is fit and well and enjoying working with Andrew, she is such a hairy girl now too.
Summer and Zeta, both cereal diggers!!!
Here comes the young boy, so handsome and such a clown but look at the colour of that tongue!!
Tetra is in the middle of a phantom, and is only just growing back her coat after a massive moult, pretty as ever though.
Darcy maybe sitting still but he is still avidly watching the birds.
Watching intently for where her tennis ball is headed. She really is tennis ball mad and spends a lot of her time finding her balls which we hide all over the place.

My boy Logi, enjoying a roll in the early morning wet grass.
Breeze Full speed ahead
Summer
Baby Bree is growing up, I don't think I have ever had such a good dog for her recall and obedience, still time for her to rebel but hey I am loving it for now. She put up a partridge earlier and it just escaped and yesterday she put up a deer which was hiding in our vegetable patch, I was so impressed one call and she stopped and returned, long may it last!!!
Bree again
Summer and Zeta
This is when Bree found the partridge

Anyway that's most of the family, just missing Maddie and Prima, which I will try and rectify later, those two tend to hunt the hedgerows so it's hard to get nice photo's of those two.
Have fun with your dogs everyone, and give me a shout if you need me.

Thank you all. We're both very tired today, this showing lark is hard work. Yes Kathy, we hope to be at Darlington, we have missed you and Gerttie at the last couple of shows. We could be even braving staying in a tent Saturday night, we haven't done that yet this year, Mazy's grown a lot since the last time we shared a tent, so could be interesting!!

well done

Well done to Karen & Mazy for 1st PGB at Richmond. Gertie should have been there but she cut one of her pads in a very awkward place & quite badly a couple of weeks ago , which is taking its time to heal, so we're HOPING to get to Darlington on Sunday. Are you going Karen?
Well done Karen and Mazy and a nice photo of you both together.

Troy is looking well Pauline. We were at a dog show at Malvern a month or so ago, it looked like a lovely place but unfortunately we didn't see much of it!

Happy first birthday to all the pups. We had Louis first birthday a week ago too; time really does fly in!

Karen and Mazy

Well done to you both. Lovely picture too x

Hi All



Jack says hi to his mum and dad and all his Brothers and Sisters - we were at the seaside for Jack's (Blitzan Touch of Logi's) 1st Birthday so this is the first opportunity for him to say Happy Birthday to everyone. He made us laugh at his first look of the waves, he loves water but the waves were all too much until Bella showed him how.










On the third day he decided to go off after the water fowl in the reserve and would he listen to the whistle (thought it was a good joke), so then he had to go swimming in the sea until he lost the rancid smell of stale water (that will teach him) says mum but then gave him his treats for getting clean again.....






He obviously thinks like his Dad (the horse poo is definately something he has taken on), must be shampoo'd at least once a week before being allowed in the car - I hope he takes on his hunting skills as well.
I didn't realise that a dog could smile all the time, he is such a scally wag but smiles all the time - we love him to bits and couldn't imagine a day without him.
Sandra and Dave

Lucy

Hi all, long time since I've posted, but have managed to keep up-to-date with the entries. Bailey, Louis and I went over to the Forest of Dean last weekend, went for a walk which ended up at a pub in Redbrook (nr Monmouth), low and behold another Munster turned up! First time ever that I've seen another one (apart from shows that is), she was called Lucy and owned by someone called Vanessa, who couldn't remember which kennel she was from. Bailey was smitten with the "older lady" (Lucy is 7yrs old), and was a bit gutted that they weren't allowed to play! So nice to see another Munster out and about, and to have Bailey recognised for what he is - instead of a "spaniel cross thingy" LOL.
Can't believe the "puppies" are already a year old, how time flys..............

Have a go Day - Logi's daughter Maier





Happy First Birthday to all Tahlulla's puppies - the months have flown by! All the puppies have matured into fine looking dogs.

Apologies for not writing more frequently - computer glitches mainly! We went to the "have a go day" and had a wonderful time. Maier thoroughily enjoyed herself - she'd never seen so many munsters in one place! She wanted to say Hi and play with them all - consequently she wasn't really paying attention in the first lesson - tracking and the water retrieve. Tracking was okay but the minute she got her feet into the water she wouldn't come out! Totally ignored the dummy and went off for a swim - one of the younger 6 month old puppies kindly got the dummy back! She was better with the hunting and was overjoyed to discover the partridge hidden in the grass! We picked up loads of tips and advice and the session on training techniques was very good indeed. We have put a few of the tips into practice with good results. It was really good to be able to pick the brains of long standing munster owners and trainers - thank you very much Lynn, Christine and Wendy. It was also great to see Maier's grandma and uncle - who also turned out to be the grandad of the other puppies in our group! We would definitely recommend the have a go day as we all enjoyed ourselves and Maier absolutely loved playing with the other Munsters.

Tallulah sends birthday greetings






A Very Happy Birthday to all my puppies. I miss you all but glad to have Tansy with me. It has been absolutely wonderful to hear news of some of my babes and I would love to hear from the others.

Happy 1st Birthday

Hi all - I know it's been ages since we last posted, we've been very busy getting our house ready to sell! Our world is now Magnolia!

Anyway, HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY ALL 'A TOUCH OF' puppies... it's amazing how fast it's flown and how beautiful they've all become.

Dodger wishes all his brothers and sisters a very Happy Birthday. We've celebrated with a little tuna with our biscuits and some new toys - they'll probably only last 5 mins, but hey, it's his birthday.

Below are a few photos from along the time...

At 2 weeks... then known as Dionysis


The day we chose him at 4 weeks old...


The first week home in his little play pen in the garden...


A few weeks ago posing for Neil in the garden...






We did take one earlier with his party hat on, will post that later once Neil's downloaded it from his phone. Hope you've all had a lovely day.

Dodger sends a big lick to his brothers and sisters and especially to Mum, Dad and of course Aunty Ali.



HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ALL FROM DADDY STRIDER xx
who is in the doghouse for rolling in lots of smelly horse shit!!!!

Lottie one year on wishes happy birthday to all her brothers and sisters.







Happy 1st Birthday







Happy 1st Birthday to all Murphy's brothers and sisters ('a touch of' litter). Where has the time gone.
Photos of when we first brought him home and 2 taken yesterday - can't believe he was so small!

Happy Birthday

Today is Illy's 1st birthday and we're off to Henley-on-Thames for a nice walk along the river. Happy birthday to all of Illy's brothers and sisters too!
