Follow Embers journey behind the scenes
Part One- ovulation and insemination day.

With thanks to Dr Hannah at Better Pet Vets for all her help, assistance and knowledge.
Fun fact, Dr Hannah actually helped us start on this crazy journey 10 years ago with beautiful Arya’s first litter and my initial interest as a nurse in veterinary reproduction. So much fun to be able to work with her again here in QLD and with Arya’s granddaughter 💜 🐾

Happy 7th Birthday to these two girlies 🥳🩷💜
It never ceases to amaze me how different these girls are, despite having the same parents and being from same litter, they really are chalk and cheese 🧀

Thanks again to our dear friend Hayley of Kuuwa Labradors for allowing us to use your darling boy Jingo to produce this gorgeous litter, as well as your friendship over the years that has followed. He has left a wonderful legacy 🤎 🐾

And just like that that, our beautiful Ember (Orsina Steal The Show) is 2! Happy Birthday beautiful girl 🥳🩷

Ember was our keeper pup from Winter and Merlin’s second AI litter and she was actually a singleton pup (single embryo) so I think we knew in our hearts at 2 weeks old she wouldn’t be leaving us.
It was love at first sight for our daughter, who promptly named her Ember after her favorite Disney character from the movie elemental (with her official pedigree name being from the title song of the movie). She has also helped her grandmother Arya recover from grieving the passing of her life partner and our beloved Giovanni.

Ember has had all her genetic health screening performed (with fantastic results) and will be the future for Orsina lines, we are just waiting on her to come into heat for all our patient families waiting for one of our pups.
We love you lots Ember girl 🐾
