2 announcements!
1- I already shared this on my personal page but we have a new resident here! We took in a sweet little papillon as a rehome. If things go well, he may do some sporty stuff. I guess he's an honorary MAS. This is Zap!
2-On a more somber note, at this time, we are putting all breeding plans on hold. Between various factors affecting my personal life, the emotional fall out of Raptor's passing, my day job increasing my work hours and a desire to focus on the dogs I have and give them as much of me as possible, I don't feel I have the time, energy, money or emotional bandwidth to pursue breeding right now.
I've told myself I am going to take 6 months to think before I run off and spay everything, but that IS something I am considering.
I appreciate all the great support I've received in my efforts to start a program and I do plan to stay heavily involved with MAS and the breed club regardless of what I decide. Certain factions are not getting rid of me that easily!
I may also revisit the idea of breeding when I retire from my real job in 5 yrs.
This is just a heads up to anyone who might have been watching for a breeding that it won't be happening soon.
Thanks to everyone and lots of love from the Rusty Rose Ranch crew to all our friends and family.
