Today we had a lovely puppy meeting with Frida from Hilda's first litter and 5 puppies from Hilda's second litter; Mauri, Mauno, Simba, Armi and Saima. We had booked the amusement park Touhu & Temmellys and the dogs had really fun! Thank you all for coming, it was great to see you all today. 🥰

With a very heavy heart I share these news. It definitely is not an easy task, but in the name of openness it's the only way to go. Oiva has been diagnosed with a leak in heart valves (mitral and aorta) and an aortic aneurysm (please correct me if the term in English isn't right!). Like this wasn't enough there is also a suspected tumor in his testicals. Oiva will be operated as soon as possible, please keep your fingers crossed.

Oiva has sired 2 litters. The specialist says that the risk of inheritance is rather low, and we certainly hope he is right! We will now focus on getting him as comfortable as possible and wish him many more years to come! <3

A Sunday well spent on the field! We had 3 dogs racing in Tuomarinkartano lure coursing event, Hilda, Iivo and Siri. Iivo and Siri run their first runs today and they both did great! Males and females were competing in separate classes.

👑 Lumottu Hildasønn Ivar Av Utah "Iivo" 1. 449 points, Champion Of Helsinki Sighthound Club

👑 Lumottu Hildadotter Signe Av Utah "Siri" 3. 472 points, CACL, 2nd in Helsinki Kennel District championship

👑 Aries Khan Margaret Tatcher Of Lumottu "Hilda" run a nice and clean first run but running alone in finals wasn't her thing today and she quit half way in finals. She had fun anyway!

Thanks to all involved and congrats to Hanna and Siri! And thanks to Tommi for fixing the equipment 🙂 I also had Mauri and Saima with us, getting to know the atmosphere. Fun they had too :)

Iivo has made to the TOP100 in all breeds in Finland! Not a great placement, but the only ridgeback on the list :) Go Iivo!

Vilho's autopsy report finally arrived. He had Addison's disease, a chronic kidney inflammation and dystrophy in heart valves. As Addison's wasn't tested when Vilho was still alive there is a slight possibility of a false diagnose, but the findings strongly point to Addison's. Run free, my love <3

"If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done,
For this — the last battle — can’t be won.
You will be sad I understand,
But don’t let grief then stay your hand,
For on this day, more than the rest,
Your love and friendship must stand the test.

We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn’t want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.
Take me to where to my needs they’ll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.

I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I have been saved.
Don’t grieve that it must be you
Who has to decide this thing to do;
We’ve been so close — we two — these years,
Don’t let your heart hold any tears."
