ITS BEEN A GOOD NIGHT with some lovely weight gains and a very content Mumma Stazzi. Just how we like it, especially me getting 2hr sleeps in between feeds - never underestimate the power of sleep!!
LG - LIFES GOOD🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙
STAZZI & THE GIN COLLECTION UPDATE - It’s been a bit of an up and down day today with poor STAZZI. She has had some vomiting however she has remained in good spirits. We decided a vet appointment was necessary just to double check on her. Nothing conclusive could be determined but we are just going to keep her very calm/quiet over the next few days, she on a very bland diet but being mindful she needs to feed 6 puppies too. She had a couple of teats struggling too with the impact of hungry puppies so we are giving them some extra attention to avoid the onset of mastitis. It’s not easy being a Mummy🩷🐾🩷
Livestream BC’s at the Brisbane Ekka!!
Dogs from a diverse range of breeds compete in different categories like "Toys", "Working Dogs", and "Terriers", as well as showcasing their skills in Rally, Dances with Dogs, Agility, and Jumping.
10.30am the BC’s should be on at the Ekka. It is being live-streamed!!
YAH WE HAVE SUNSHINE for the first time in 4 days - HOORAY!!
Our Kolorko Krew can dry out now and enjoy the warmth of a beautiful Friday Brisbane Day🌞
NEWBORN TOILETING - For the benefit of our newer followers, newborn puppies cannot toilet without being stimulated by their mother.
STAZZI has this job perfected and is quiet methodical in ensuring no puppy gets left out before she feeds her 6 puppies🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙
Wishing CASS & KALEEN all the best @ The Brisbane Ekka today as they show our REMI’s Son, TUX and Grandson NASH💙🐾🐾💙
AMPIKA - Well I was until recently the subject to most of my Mums photos taken but not anymore, especially since we got invaded by 12 black & white, 1 redhead and 1 choc BC puppies.
I can’t even look at her right now so I’ll give her my best side only and let’s see whether my status @ Kolorko Kennel, yes the name kennel was used so not to be biased with any one breed apparently, improves at all and then I might see whether I’m ready to co-operate for the camera again. Love, AMPIKA 🩷🐶🩷,
Well I didn’t know that!! Btw I use cornflour, bleeding stops instantly🩷🐾🐾💙
MILKBAR CLOSED - Reopens in 2hrs🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙
PUPPIES of this age pull and bite. Soft discipline always followed with praise is vital in teaching a puppy what is and is not acceptable behaviour and you must always be consistent with your training and redirecting🩷🐾🐾💙
KAIMANA - Mr Paw Man - Reminds me so much of his father CHARLIE and his Grandfather KENZIE💙🐾💙
WHO IS WHO - When its so wet its hard to tell🩷🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙💙
WET DAY 4 - It’s so very wet in Brisbane at present although I think I can almost see the sun trying to come out from behind the clouds.
STAZZI & her Gin Collectiin by Mr Kolorko are all doing exceptionally well. Very pleased with their progress. Only one thing would make it perfect - The Sunshine🌞
WET WEDNESDAY - Please Weather Gods give us sunshine on Thursday. 3 days of wet weather is far too much for 8 now mud puppies and my big furkids too🩷🐶🐶💙

🐶THE BLACK & GOLD LITTER and
🐶 THE LOVE IS ALIVE LITTER
I am both humbled and thrilled to confirm that all 14 of our pups have wonderful families all waiting for them in the weeks to come.
It’s been very unsettling times in the Australian Dog Breeding World with many breeders post Covid not breeding or when they do have struggled to find homes for their beloved puppies.
There has been a lot of new breeders come into existence for various reasons, some unfortunately thinking they can make easy money, can I say to that, if you do it properly, to break even is a good litter but most dedicated breeders put whatever they do make back into their own dogs and the growing costs to produce them. It’s also been said you can’t sell black/white bc puppies, everyone wants colour, I have never found that to be the case, my current 2 litters are a living example of that, with 12 x black/white and only 2 coloured pups. Lastly I contribute a lot of my fortunate success in maintaining active social media presence, educating those who want to be educated, helping many free of charge with training tips or meeting them to help them and their dogs, some not even from me own breeding programme and finally, our dogs are family members first and formost, competition dogs second and last but not least breeding dogs with only producing a litter once a year.
When you choose me as your breeder it’s usually in advance, most times I have a current litter on the ground but my enquirers are thinking about a pup for the following year. We get to spend that time getting to know each other with regular contact, answering questions and then before you know it the time has come, our girl is in season and then we start a very special journey together from conception, thru to pregnancy, the birthing and then the raising of our pups. Our families get to feel apart of that journey which is a special and incredible experience.
THANK YOU to all my families both past and present. I hope I always live up to my promises to you and your expectations in me @ Kolorko Kennel🩷🐶🐶💙
NIGHT SURVEILLANCE - STAZZI was most unsettled last night. I was up and down with her most of the night. Ripping up thecwhelping box, fussing with her pups wanting to feed and toilet them constantly. Our PILOT MUM has returned, round 2. Well at least she care too much than not at all. Sleep or no sleep - Love you Stazzi🩷🐾🩷
Grapes including sultana’s and raisins are TOXIC to dogs and will bring on instant kidney failure!!
STAZZI - Not posing or anything but I think I might have my pre-pregnancy waistline back after only 3 days, that must be a record🩷🐾🩷

I’m glad our whelping box fits not only Stazzi and her pups but me too when needed. Pink & Yellow puppy are our 🩷🩷 along with a choc girl. Blue, Green & Brown are our boys💙💙💙
DAY 3 STAZZI & her litter of 6 have had a slow start but that’s a given when your girl has a c-section. So much more to contend with but we are getting there!! Slowly🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙
AMPIKA & THE BLACK & GOLD LITTER - Enjoyed a Sunday arvo catch-up after a crazy day with the arrival of STAZZI’S pups. It was so important me that my other dogs, all of them got some time with me because they all know/sense something has changed in our home. So outside we were to enjoy the last of the sunlight before it was time to get everyone ready for evening meals and settling into the night.
STAZZI DAY 61 of 63 - We have started our first of two body temperature drops, telling me puppies should be here right on schedule for Monday🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
EYE CHECK - It was a lovely Thursday arvo in Brisbane yesterday in the garden with the pups. I did an eye colour check on all our puppies. At 6 weeks to the day the eye colour on a bc change from a muddy blue to dark brown/black eyes. ALL our pups have lovely dark eyes. MANDING continues where our pups must sit to get my attention/reaction. They do this very well. Sometimes if Im not quick enough to mark this behaviour I get told off with a cry and a jump at me. It’s important I correct this behaviour, gently but firmly. It’s for me as the alpha to acknowledge as I want, not the puppy to demand a reaction from me. AMPIKA loves coming into the puppy yard every day for a play and they love seeing her too, their not sure exactly what she is but she’s a lot of fun and a nice distraction from the litters siblings. Every breed play differently and it’s good for them to experience different breeds and their behaviours 🩷🩷🩷🩷💙💙💙💙
