Chamak, Spenser, Aanya, Roopa, and Rewa enjoying the outdoors at home and at Chase Farm.

Chamak finally made it to Chase Farm today and got to run around with big brother Spenser and with dad Jozsi. And he loved it and didn't stop for more than a second or two, as evidenced by these photos.

Thanks Mallory Galatzer-Levy for bringing Jozsi around and taking a walk with us!

A very "Happy Birthday" to our one and only Aanya Raani. Three years old today. Hope you're having an awesome day playing with birds!

Thank you for an amazing journey these past 3 years. Looking forward to many more years of the fabulous you.

Roopa & Spenser headed back to the Woods Hollow Preserve this morning for their second jaunt. It was a short one due to heat. We kept to the shade or the water to practice retrieve to hand. Still need to work on the "to hand" part!

Roopa and Spenser wanted to get out of the show campgrounds and "the tent", so we went for a little jaunt in the nearby woods.

Wow! Baby Elara (Roopa x Jozsi) at barely 3 months, is already in the show ring in Ontario, showing like a little pro. She went to her first UKC shows yesterday and today and earned herself TWO 'Best Puppy in Show' wins. Thank you Judge David Kitteridge for her nice BPIS win today. Plus, today she made the cut into the final four in the "Best of the Best" competition (a finale of all Best in Show winners of the weekend including Best in Show, Best Veteran in Show and Best puppy in show). What a way to start! Congrats and thanks to Elara's mom Mary-Ellen Kruis-Harvey for all her hard work showing all her dogs this weekend in the heat. Congrats on your wins with Monte and Sailor too!

We are so happy to re-introduce the Lunatics now that they are in their own homes with their families.

The Lunatics were born May 6, 2016 to

6xBISS GCHS / Can. BISS GCH Heelmark’s Roop Tera Mastana, SH CA CGC
and
Am. CH / Can NBISS CH Regal Point Konane, JH

It’s been a joy and a privilege to help prepare these 9 beautiful puppies for the adventures that lie ahead. We wish each puppy and their family a lifetime of fun, joy, and happiness as well as success in all that they do.

We look forward to watching these puppies grow up and hope to see them all participating in a hunt trial, the show ring, agility course, or another stimulating activity soon.

Wishing a very happy 4th birthday to our very special girl and new mum "Roopa".

Each year you bring a little more joy, special memories and excitement for the future.

From a naughty baby to a sweet show dog, from a great huntress to a princess and comedienne, you are an endless source of enjoyment, surprises, smiles and outright laughter, with the occasional frustrations (I'll never forget the chewing of my iPad as your lunch replacement when you were 9 months old). You are the best company and friend, every minute of every day.

Now you are a mom to 9 adorable babies and I watch you with them each day and see how well you care for them even when you'd rather be napping or playing outside. Like with everything else you do, you always get done what needs doing, and you do it so well.

Cheers and much love to you, Roopa!

I'm learning to never go to the whelping box without a camera as there's always a picture screaming to be captured. Here's Peri (Aqua boy) taking the long route to get his meal.

Roopa and Jozsi's Lunatics. Born May 6th, 2016, on the first moon of May (Flower Moon), the moon themed litter includes 5 boys ( Charon, Bergie, Obie, Peri, and Esto) and 4 girls (Maggie, Elara, Thea, and Dora).

Pictured in this album at 12 days. They are now starting to walk up and around the whelping box, some are opening their eyes. And they are very vocal...almost musical when they are happy and dreaming.

Thank you Jozsi and Roopa for such a beautiful and entertaining litter!

The Lunatics (Roopa x Jozsi) have arrived!!!!

Heelmark Shikari Vizslas is over the moon to announce the arrival of our 9 ‘Lunatics’. The ‘moon’ themed litter of 5 boys and 4 girls was born to Roopa and Jozsi on May 6th, 2016. Jozsi’s registered AKC name ‘Konane’ means ‘brighter than moonlight’ in Hawaiian. And Roopa whelped the puppies at the beginning of the new moon of May (The Flower Moon). The Lunatics arrived early Friday morning, beginning roughly at 3 am with the last puppy arriving around 11:30am. Roopa was such a trooper to not only carry the 9 babies for 9 weeks but also endured nearly 9 long hours of labour to deliver these beautiful babies.

Happy Mother’s Day to first-time mom, Roopa!

A very special thank you to Ruth Sinclair-Stephens and Daniel Zilka for taking wonderful care of Roopa and expertly whelping the puppies while Ritu and Graeme were otherwise occupied at the Vizsla National in Topeka, Kansas. Congratulations to the entire Heelmark and Regal Point family!

Aanya Raani earned herself the only AOM awarded at the VCCNE Vizsla Specialty today in W. Springfield, MA in a very competitive specials class of 15 bi***es and 3 males. Thank you judge Sheila Smith for appreciating Aanya and thanks Theresa for taking her into the ring for me at the last minute.

Congrats to all the winners!

Aanya (BIS Mason x Rewa) is now GCH Heelmark Aanya Raani, JH (pending AKC approval). She completed her Grand Championship title today in Raleigh, NC with a 5 point SEL major. Thank you judge Linda Clark! And, thank you Graeme Burdon for helping Aanya to this title in just 3 weekends with 6 straight majors, including 3 BOB, 2 BOS, and a SEL.

Coincidentally, 2 years ago, her "auntie" Roopa also completed her GCH title with a 5pt SEL major under the same judge (at the CVVC specialty in Rye Brook, NY).

Fun morning in York, PA.
"Dillon", Heelmark Dillon Poetry n' Motion (from the BIS Mason x Rewa "Poetics" litter) was Winners Dog (WD) for a 4 point major! And then was helped to Best of Winners (BOW) by his new friend Colleen Joy, while I played "specials" with big sister Aanya (who didn't quite get why "mum" was in the ring with her).

Thanks so much Colleen for taking Dillon in for BOW, and congrats on your Reserve WD win with Hani! Thank you judge Robert Vandiver for recognizing Dillon. Congrats to all the winners!
