“Q” LITTER - BORN 2ND APRIL 2023 - ALL PUPPIES BOOKED
We are very excited with Aytee bred KC HPR Champions on both sides of the pedigree and are keeping a waitlist for this special litter. Please contact luciehustler@me.com and see Litters Overview if you would like more information.
Both sire and dam are hard running stylish hunters, excellent retrievers, swim confidently and are biddable with kind temperaments.
KARAT
Dam: Ch Aytee Katerina “Karat” is a true dual purpose GSP having won a 1st Field Trial Award at 3 years old, in the same year as her third CC in the show ring. She is shot over every week in the season and has a very soft mouth. Karats first litter from 2020 have already competed successfully and are proving themselves competent on game.
HARRIS
Sire: Islasbraw Ash “Harris” is a naturally wide running dog that points superbly well. This very promising young dog is from a line of fantastically trainable dogs and has already been placed twice out of 3 Field Trial entries.

Karat scanned on day 36 of pregnancy with ultrasound and confirmed in pup. We saw 6 pups in one view indicating a likely large litter. Puppies are due on Sunday 2nd April. (day 63)

The whelping box was assembled this weekend and is now all set up, ready for action which we anticipate may be as early as the end of this week. Karat very well but completely fed up !
Sunday 2nd April 2023
Karat’s first pup, of her beautiful litter of 10, was born at 0045 hrs and the last one checked in at 0930. Starting with 4 bitches one after the other she then produced 3 dogs and the last 3 pups, arrived in quick order, two more bitches and a dog. I think she just wanted to get done! Happily it was very straightforward with no vet intervention and all the pups are settled and sucking. Happy days 🐾😀

Karat keen to relocate her pups, frustratingly for me, spends her loo breaks searching for a suitable spot, amazing how the instinct to move them at couple of days old, is so strong… given a chance she would hide the lot outside!

Our puppy pile had tails docked and dew claws removed today but they were soon back home feeding and sleeping none the worse for being a little bit lighter than before.
