Introducing Margo
Wow! Its been a while since I last posted here. Life has just been super busy and I haven't had much time for anything since Edna's last litter arrived some six months ago!
So what's new?
Well, back in July Edna welcomed her final litter of 5 little girls. Two of them went to my existing puppy families, one went to a dear friend, one to a young girl who wanted a grooming competition dog and yup, you've guessed it one stayed here!
This is my keeper girl Margo aka Morag, Madge, Moogie and a great many other names.

Edna is expecting...
In a couple of weeks we will be welcoming a litter of silver babies to the Marcasite household.
I am absolutely delighted. I have once again used Kareem aka Can.Ch.RBIS BBE Int'l.Ch.Violet Skies N A Noble Knight VA RATN ATD CGN RI RE NS PCD CD TDROM/AM RATN CGC TKA RATI RI RA
Kareem is a gorgeous boy and lives in Canada with Deborah Foster of Violet Standard Poodles. He is fully health tested with excellent results and possesses both brains and beauty - holding Canadian Champion and International Champion titles, as well as titles for obedience, barn hunting, and even several trick dog titles.
Having used Kareem before, I can honestly say he produces puppies with the most wonderful tempraments and I am in contact with several other owners of his offspring from across the globe.
Edna aka Lucy in Sky Grey at Marcasite (NTD SSH 2K9 BTC:48 TD-ROM) is mum to this upcoming litter and like Kareem is fully health tested with excellent results.
Edna has already produced two wonderful litters of puppies - in 2018 and 2020, so this will be her final litter.
Edna adores being a mum and is so maternal that she has previously taken on and produced milk for a couple of tiny foster puppies whose Mother had died during their birth. She even produced milk for her daughter Peggy's litter a couple of years ago!
Like Kareem, Edna holds several trick dog titles and she excels at obedience and agility. She is the most gentle, kind, intuitive dog and has even done some filmwork and modelling in the past.
I am very much looking forward to the pups arriving, so watch this space for lots of pictures!

A walk with Blu
A couple of days ago we met up with Blu, one of Edna's puppies from her 2020 litter.
Blu lives in the north of England with his family and his best pal Alfie the doodle, but they popped in to see us whilst they were visiting Devon on their holidays.
As you will see from our photos, Alfie, Blu, Stan and the girls had the most wonderful time playing together. We had a perfect day, in fact even the weather was perfect- a first in Devon for what feels like months!
It was such a pleasure to be able to spend time with Blu. He has grown into a very gentle, whistful soul and is a friend to all he meets. He really is a credit to his family and I am so very grateful to them for staying in touch and allowing me to follow along in Blu's adventures. As a breeder, there really is nothing better than knowing how much happiness one of your puppies has brought to a family.
I am super proud of the gentle, well mannered chap that Blu has become.
