Dixie's visit to the Farm

Hey Folks, Here's the latest! 

Dixie  and I took a drive to Luray, VA to visit Toby the stud.   It was a long 2 hr drive, and we got stuck behind a line painting truck!  But it was a gorgeous peaceful day, and there is no better place to be than driving through the Shenandoah Mountains on such a day as this!  Dixie, seemed to know we were taking her away for a few days.  She did not look thrilled!

Toby lives on a beautiful farm with many other dogs, horses and chickens.

Here are some of the beautiful horses we met today....

This little foal was being shy.....

 This little Yorkie is one of many dogs that Lynn owns....
along with a Great Dane, English Bulldog, and several Mini Schnauzers....

But this is the little fellow you really want to see.  This is Toby.  Isn't he a beauty.  He has a really gorgeous coat.  You call this color silver.

Its been a bit muddy on the farm, so Toby's furnishings are a bit yellowed, but rest assured, they are naturally white!

Toby was the most beautiful of all the Mini Schnauzers at the farm.  He will produce some beautiful puppies.

As I mentioned before, he has a lot of white in his genetic background...so we could see a lot of white in this litter with Dixie...but there is no telling.  I do hope we get at least one silver puppy that looks just like Toby.

I should also mention that one of my customers on the waiting list has specified that she would like a non-white Schnauzer .... so if we only get one colored Schnauzer, I will give Bronny first dibs.

So at the moment I am back at home, and Dixie will stay on the  farm until Sunday.  The male Schnauzers are kept in a kennel and only bred under supervision, so there is no ambiguity as to who the father is, or whether the breeding took place.  Lynn has been breeding dogs for 20 years so she is very experienced and will take good care of Dixie.  Now let's hope Dixie and Toby get along really well!
