I hadn't planned on importing any more dogs, ever! After importing four stunning Lappies from Finland in 2013, I had well and truely decided that I would not be importing any more. The time involved in importing a dog is immense and involves a great deal of communication, coordination and trust. I do consider the ramifications for the dog- the massive lifestyle change, the long flight and the time in quarentine. Combined with the fact that I already have so many lines, with my imported dogs and imported semen, I was truely of the opinion that I would not want or need to import another dog. Over the past couple of years a few wonderful opportunities presented themselves but I took a deep breath and said no. That was until a message landed in my inbox asking if I would like Karri, Terhakhan Lusmu. Accompaning the messages were photos of this gorgeous little teddy bear, precisely the type I aim to breed. I looked for every reason to say no- but everything about him was simply wonderful. A stunning pedigree with lines I had on my 'semen to get list' accompied by some of my favourite lines. Brilliant health results with A/A hips, 111 hip index, clear eyes and PRA clear. Feedback from people who have met him and his relatives that they have excellent tempraments.... And that simply gorgeous type that I adore... So the answer had to be YES!
Karri is expected to arrive in Australia at the end of 2015, where he will be a much loved member of our family. Our tremendous thanks to Saara Sampakoski for raising Karri and preparing him for export.
