A long awaited for puppy. This little gal is exactly what we were hoping to get when we first met the Corwyn crew. She is a gorgeous little puppy. Very sweet tempered if not a bit stubborn at times and she moves like a dream! We have just as high hopes for her as we do for Brook so check back often to see what she is up to!
Name Game: Getting this girl was a bit unexpected as the next dog to come through our house was to be my dane girl but when I first saw her picture I was intrigued to say the least but did not let on to my husband because he wanted her but wasn't pushing it because he knew I had hoped for a dane puppy. Still...he and Tammy would drop the occassional hints about her and I would just change the subject. Tammy continued to share pictures and I was still smitten by this little girl so we decided to meet Tammy and the babies at a local hunt test and from the moment I saw her, felt her, and watched this puppy move I knew we had to have her and here she is. She is just gorgeous.
Tammy had already had her call name chosen as well as that of her sister Robin. (get it...bird theme
) and by the time we got her at 13 weeks we decided to keep it. As far as her registered name I couldn't have been more pleased when Tammy told me she wanted to include my kennel name on her registration. It proved to be a challenge because there would be three lengthy kennel names on her. Tammy's (Corwyn), the co-breeder, Monica Broomfield (Tradewind), and mine (Boarpoint) and of course you always want to try to choose a register name that fits with their call name and this was no exception. Since her call name is Raven my husband started looking for other names used for Raven and found the Olde English name for a raven which is Valkyrie. How befitting. Olde English name for an English Pointer!!
