What Does Responsible Breeding Mean?

With collaboration .....I am very excited about this pending new arrival from Serbia/Hungary to South Africa soon - from Golden Retrievers - Mortonouro. Not only will this boy add to the genetic diversity in South Africa, but also complimentary to our existing breeding lines. We are very excited (as I will get to show this little man) but also very privileged and honored that his breeder has entrusted us with this precious little man - who will be named "Mufasa" ....for his new life in South Africa (Lion country) but also because he will be "King of the Ring" very soon :)

Already DNA tested and CLEAR - PRA1, PRA2, PRCD, ICH, DL and NCL is surely an amazing addition of health, beauty, conformation, looks and cuteness :)

Today at Roodepoort & Districts KC Championship Show - first shows of the year for us in Gauteng, under judge Alison Banks, very proud of all our puppers :) Thank you Alison for being so patient and kind with the young babies.

Reserve Best of Breed, CC Dog and Best Junior, was Troy "Mochavulin Chavez Trojan Horse"
his brother Kingsley "Mochavulin Chavez Exotic Emperor" was awarded the RCC.
And then our new babies in the ring Olive and Sarabi did very well for their first time showing. Sarabi - "Mochavulin Trinity Tribute Sarabi of Mortonouro" got Best Puppy and Gundog Puppy Group 3 and Olive "Mochavulin Highland Olive Delight" was awarded Best Baby Puppy.

As usual, we needed lots of hands-on deck and always being willing to help - thank you Robyn, Vicki, Irene, Ashleigh, Lauriaan for holding and running up and down with us.

Happiest 11th Birthday to my Jake .....
Gr Ch Int Ch Mochavulin Colour Me Jake ZAW19

11 years of fun, laughter, friendship, companionship, love, dedication ...
11 years with my friend, companion, my heart outside, inside a fur body ....
How blessed I have been to have you in my life ....
There are actually no words that can describe the bond we have, the love I have for you ....and just how much you are adored.
You have been titled in the showring and achieved everything we could possibly achieve .....you have been by my side, through all it, having endless patience with me always dressing you up on silly things :)

If you want to buy a dog and walk away, don’t buy one from me.
If you want to pick a puppy because it came to you when you sat down or gave you a cute look, don’t buy one from me.
If you don’t want to take my recommendations on what food to feed or what is best for the health and well-being of the dog, after years of experience, don’t buy a dog from me.
If you want a puppy in a hurry, because you need it for a Christmas gift or to be in senior pictures, don’t buy one from me.
If you never plan to update me on how the dog is doing, or send a picture once in a while, don’t buy a dog from me.
If you want a dog to live in the backyard, run loose on a farm, and never share time in the house with your family, definitely don’t buy a dog from me.
If you want a lawn ornament, you can buy one made of cement or plaster, not much care needed.
However, if you want a puppy that has parents with health testing, that was socialized, loved, and made a priority from the day it was born. A puppy who’s temperament and activity level has been carefully chosen to fit your lifestyle. A puppy selectively and purposefully bred to the standard set forth by our breed club, then maybe you do want to buy a dog from me.
If you want a breeder who will at any time in the dogs life take them back, no questions asked. A breeder who is there 24/7 for you and your dog for questions and concerns and will work hard to help you resolve any issues. Then you might want to buy a dog from me.
If you want a breeder who loves each puppy/dog with all their heart, considers you part of the family and will laugh or cry with you at any time. Well then, we might be a match.
Reputable breeders should never be lumped in with puppy mills, backyard breeders, or those who broker dogs. A reputable breeder will be able to provide clearances, a five-generation pedigree, an explanation as to why they bred the two dogs. While most of the time they will make little or no money. What money they might get is reinvested into the dogs one way or another.
A reputable breeder knows their dogs and can realistically tell you what to expect and when to guide you toward veterinarians, training facilities, and products that will benefit your dog.
A reputable breeder will be your friend, a guiding hand, and a strong shoulder.
So whatever choice you make, make it with the best interest of the dog in mind and if that’s not your plan, then don’t buy a dog from me.

- Author unknown, but I'm sure most ethical, reputable, preservationist breeders feel the same. Please feel free to re-post, I did.

15 Dec 2024 - and then there is only one left .....

Summer and Max/Mkuze Pups are now in their loving forever homes. I miss those little teddy bears running when I brought their food and getting so many cuddles and kisses (and sharky bites).

Mr Yellow - aka Harvey with his big Elephant and fluffball friend Blu. Destined to become a therapy doggo :) with Tracy and Gabi :)

Mr Orange - aka Willoughby also has a big black fluffball friend + Golden blue (from Maggie & Flynn) with Anni and Katie

Mr Green - aka Huxley living it up in DBN with Kaz (and too many others fluffballs to mention)

Mr Turq - (name still pending) with Loren & family and other floofballs. This one history is quite special.....a family connection to "Mochavulin Sabre" born in 2013 (and became a successful therapy dog). Sabre is out of Lily and Maverik.....and his granddad is Max .....who is the same daddy Max to Mr Turq.....as well as Maverik, being Summer (his mom's) granddad. All thanks to modern technology that allowed us to have the last of Max with this litter.

Mr Black .....aka Caleb ....a bit or a turn of events (because of his awesome personality) has moved to Port Alfred with Elsbeth. Destined to hopefully become a showdog. As a breeder and because of spending almost 24/7 with the pups, I just had a feeling that this would be the perfect match, although Mr Turq was preferred from the start.....but in the end....I expected this to happen because this puppy is extra special .....

Ms Pink - aka Olive is winning over hearts and we will see her around the showring in the future. With Bronwyn and Tarryn.

Ms Purple....aka Reign .....get to stay here in the Golden Zoo.

The happiest moments are getting messages from the paw-rents that they are happy, the pups are adjusting to a new family, pets and environment .... that is all that I want for my pups - to be in their forever, loving homes.
