The Devil made me do it.

Somethings what one person can tolerate and live with is something another can't..... Sometimes we hold on to things that we have hopes for. I will wait for this boy.

He is almost 14 months old. He stands JUST under 16". He is very slow to mature.... but his face tells me, there are good things to come.... so I will chance all the time for him.

This is Ruffleith's CC Revival. Revil. He was co-bred with Kim Aston and Peter Culumovic. His Dam, Juno is also from a co-breeding with Kim and Peter and now is co-owned with me. Laureate Alinea is an Am Ch Can GCH Shelhaven Alaris CGN ROMC daughter by my foundation love of my life CH Laureate Rachael Ray ~ Rayna~. Her Grandfather is CH Laureate Landslide ROMC. Revil's sire is CH Shelhaven Outback (Am Ch Ilemist As You Like It ROM x MBIS, BISS, MBPIS, MBPISS Am/Can GCh Shelhaven Sweet Seduction, CGN) I love the pedigree.

Thank you Tina King of TLC for helping me out with him ~ and helping me to have him look his best (without a bathe) for these pictures.

Revil at 12 weeks of age.

Maureen took the following pictures of Revil.... but for some reason she calls him "Devil". I don't understand why... cause... just look at him - he's like an angel..... awwwww..

Can't wait to take some "Table shots" of him. I'm liking what I see already.

Ruffleith's No Name

It's very rare that I don't have a "name" for most puppies, as you all know from past posts. When in a co-breeding environment, you don't want to get toooo attached to those of Show Hopefuls that may not end up being yours. This boy is one of those situations. I liked him from day one and so did co-breeder Kim Aston.

All brown... he stood out like a sore thumb. Always a good size... not going over... and then at 6 weeks... seeing that he progressed nicely.. not really going off anywhere.

Kim had first pick of the litter. She hummed and hawed, and put all pups of potential on the table.... pondering pondering....... it was intense. LOL. It was truly one of those decisions that you don't want to rush into.... no matter what.

She then made a decision, weighing on the "overall package" and choose the bravest, most outgoing, and flashiest pup in the litter....and that was her "Miss Twiggy". A really really pretty little bitch - she will be fun to grow out for sure.

My turn. My "first" pick...- I couldn't get this Brown boy outta of my head and heart. It's just that gut feeling of .... I like him lots - and I like what he has to potentially offer my "young" kennel. And that gut feeling, normally works out for me. **fingers crossed**

Now I have to find a good name for him... as I find he is getting better and better and really showing his fun personality...he is not going anywhere soon... and I'm tired of calling him "hey you".

Give me that food

Potty Break - ahhhhh

Thanks Maureen Lynch of Shelamo, for helping me out to try to keep him still in this very laid back photo shoot - it didn't work... but I know you tried. hahaha

The "Juno Crew" is gone but one.

I don't have pics of everyone here, as I am missing "miss jersey" but will be getting some soon. Kim Aston of Laureate has chosen her pick puppies and the 2 girls "Miss Jersey" and new name - super modell "Miss Twiggy". The smaller boy has found a home, yet possibly will be back to seek some possible show tips... Hippo is now Teddy I beleive... and Mr no name.. well.... I hope to find him a show. home.
