A busy and productive weekend for Ken and Nordictouch Golden Charm, "Julie." We ventured to Atlanta, GA for the Cavaliers of the South Annual Specialty Show. "Julie" placed 2nd in her class on Saturday, under English Breeder/Judge Mr. Dick Terry of Virgloshimee Cavaliers. A nice win, as "Julie" was handled by Ken at only their second Cavalier Club show. There were nine in her class and some very nice looking girls. Congratulations to Ken and Julie!!
We chose to travel to Atlanta, GA not only to show, but to have all our Cavaliers tested by a certified Cardiologist and Opthamologist. We are happy to report that "Julie" is once again heart clear and her eyes are normal. We will be having her hips and patellas done in Charleston, SC and will be sending all results to OFA and CERF. We are hoping for our first litter this fall or next, so keep checking back.
Unfortanatly, our oldest and first pet Cavalier Monticello Mountain Molly, "Molly" came back with a Grade 2 Mitral Valve Leak.
We will be having an ultrasound at the end of the week to see how her heart is coping. Molly just turned six on March 20th. We were sad to hear the news, but know this is one of the many healthy issues plaguing the breed. We will continue to keep everyone posted on Molly's condition. Molly is a wonderful companion and continues to particpate in Rally Obedience.
