Sayuri, my little lily, will always be in her place in my heart. There were no red flags, she wasn’t showing any signs of illness, so this post isn’t to take anything away from her. Our dogs have always been well taken care of, and our objective has always been to make sure we have quality pups in our breeding program. In retrospect, I am stepping into a new adventure offering pups that have health certificates so that our puppy families will have confidence in the pups’ eyes, heart, hips, and such. With that, there will be breed registrations and microchips.
I am honored to be chosen as a co-owner in a new breeding program with a kennel. So, we are introducing C4 Kennels Patience, aka ENZA, to our home. Enza comes from a line of police/tracking dogs on her dam’s side and a bloodline tracing back to Bulgaria on her sire’s side. Fully registered as Italian Mastiff/Cane Corso, I will not have to look for a stud, as he will be chosen by the kennel.
Enza’s name comes from the Italian word, Pazienza, meaning patience. She’s 4 ½ months old, so we have two years of training and working with her. She’s already 90% housetrained (except puppy chewing) and in the few days we’ve had her, she’s recognizing her name and getting a good recall. She’s also found her voice and will run to my side when barking at outside activities. She is going to be a fast learner and we are excited to see where this new adventure takes us.
We are already falling in love with this little girl, and at the same time, we are still grieving our beautiful Sayuri. We will continue to hold Sayuri close to our hearts while we open it up even more to Enza.
New beginnings, new adventure, always cherishing our memories.
