G'day Andrew
Jenny (Doyen Star) has been served and is now taking it easy back at Robs place mate. Chris and the crew at Colyton looked after her really well and all went smoothly. Now we just wait for a litter of champs!

Ripper news Doug. Hope you get a nice litter. Very exciting mating and I know you have been waiting a long time to do this.
Hope the zoenah's entity bitch is coming along well. 8 months old - how time flies - really happy with my 5.
Best Andrew and thanks for supporting thommo.

Absolutely mate, been keen for this one for a while as you know. Just hoping for a nice litter of healthy champions now!
8 months already, geez that's flown. Terry has just got back from a trip away, will have to check in on her and see how she's growing. If it's anything like how great she looked early on she'll be an absolute beauty!

Exciting couple of weeks coming up with 12 litters due in the next three weeks starting with 3 this week.
Those I have spoken to are all expecting good size litters so good luck to all with whelping your girls.

Evening All, Congrats to Richard Dean and his girl, Blue Blood Queen. 8 healthy pups, 2 dogs and 6 girls, born in the last day, all doing well.
Good luck Richard. Can't wait to hear they get on.
Was told Ron Steele has an impressive looking litter by Banjo Boy. That's a good rap. He's bred some good ones. Any knowledge on that litter?

That is good news Glenn.
They might be the assassin journey litter. She has thrown charmed assassin (won 20 races) regularly broke 29.80 at Wenty best 29.66 and ran 29.66 at angle park and good odds john 29.80 odd Wenty etc. I bought one of them at birth and Ron still has him. So be good if you are referring to them.
Talking about ron and jan what great people. They sure know there stuff.

Unfortunately Charlie Northfield has only ended up with two living from his bitch kingsbrae knocker. But as we all know it only takes one. Good luck Charlie.

Thanks Scott. Yes won't get the 80 -100 in his first season that the stud masters tell me you need but not many do these days. He is at about 58 odd bitches now and we are pretty much 12 months in bar a week or two. Very happy he has got his chance and pups look like they will give him a red hot go. Had a couple of bitches whelp on weekend but lost a lot of pups. I think only 3 of 12 survived across two whelpings. Feel for those who lost them.

Morning All,
More good news overnight. Jennifer Wilson's bitch Electro Diva has whelped a litter of 12 - 5 dogs and 7 bitches with the possibility of one more to come.
This continues to trend of good sized litters. My bitch, Giselle Bale is due to whelp this weekend and looks like is having a big litter and others are reporting bitches all looking on the large size. He sure is fertile.
Best to all.
If anyone is around Dapto on Sunday give me a buzz. Love to buy you a drink.
Best
Andrew

After chatting today at the Dapto auction to the owner of Banjo boy I was able to see first hand some very nice Banjo boy pups in the flesh . Andrew was great to speak to and a very genuine guy to deal with.
I have Buxton miss ( kiss me ketut's litter sister )who is on season now she will be implanted to Banjo Boy hopefully end of the week, Hoping these pups turn out as nice as the pups that were on show today at the auction.
Very excited :)

Prefer Thommo now......not sure where Ken gets the names. He called one of my dog pies.....I am a bomber fan......he thought it was funny....i didn't.
Do you have questions about breeding theories?
