We discovered that Ruby (aka Varazs Kiralyi Rubicund) from our 2003 litter who boarded with us for the past 2 weeks LOVES to chew. She managed to devour about 4 rubber chew toys - fortunately my dogs weren't interested in them - and then started on the soft toys - which my dogs LOVE although they don't chew them, they just carry them around. Ruby seems to like chew toys, sticks and soft toys and acoording to her owners, she LOVES TO CHEW and destroys toys in no time flat.
I don't know why one dog loves to chew and another doesn't. Our dogs have destroyed plenty of toys in the past but not recently. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that right now, my two of my dogs are getting a lot of training in agility and another in rally and so their minds and energy are focused on other activities. What do you think?
There's no doubt about it. Ruby1 (to distinguish her from another Ruby in our 2006 litter) from our 2003 litter which turned turned 9 years old on June 26, still looks and acts like a PUPPY! Her owner kept saying that but I had trouble believing it until Ruby came to stay with us for a couple of weeks. I hadn't seen much of Ruby over the years because she initially was sent out to live in British Columbia on the west coast of Canada. Her owners then moved to Ontario but were busy raising a baby so it wasn't until a couple of years ago that we finally met up and I had a short reunion with Ruby. However, it wasn't until she came to stay with us that I got a real opportunity to get reacquainted. Not only is she still very puppy-like, she is a real sweetheart! And boy, does she ever remind me of her mother, Nova. Her eyes are like Nova's and she stands like Nova - and she HUMPS BEDS just like Nova did. More about this behaviour later! She doesn't have the build of Nova but Ruby certainly reminds me a lot of our beloved Nova. And her muzzle reminds me more of her dad Sasha and her sister Zsofi. All in all, she's an extremely pretty, fun-loving, playful and very sweet Varazs-bred Vizsla with a great temperament!
I've been fortunate to see or visit with a handful of our puppies over the past couple of months. As a breeder, this always brings me joy since I love to see how our offspring are turning out. Here are the dogs that have visited lately.
