Sparta Update!

The Sparta Shilohs official website, www.spartashilohs.com, is fully activated (and has been for a while--I just forgot about this blog, LOL!). Head on over there to find our dogs, links to their blogs, upcoming litter information, to see our past litters and to find out what events we may have coming up if you'd like to meet us. :)

Since I last posted on here lots of things have happened--I'll bring you up-to-date with the super-fast version. ;) Kyrie had three pups--Astra, Saber, and Jax--with our Leo, born in late March of 2011. You can see them below, in that order! You can also see them from birth through one year (and beyond) on their litter blog: http://kyrieleolitter.blogspot.com. :)

In 2012 I wanted to try a match that would further benefit the gene pool and we used Piston for Kyrie. We got six healthy pups--Sammy, Aslan, Bullet McNabb, Blazie, Baxter, and Benelli, born around Memorial Day (almost exactly one year from the date our Breed Founder, Tina Barber, passed away last year). Here are some shots of them growing. You can see all of our photos and follow them as they grow on their litter blog at http://kyriepistonlitter.blogspot.com. :)

Sadly after this litter was born, Kyrie's cervix did not close properly and infection got in. :( We had to spay our beautiful Hobo girl to prevent a life-threatening pyometra (uterine infection). But the good news is--we kept a pup! A new girl to carry on Kyr's genetic legacy. :) That girl is Blazie!

So now you are up-to-date! For more news or to touch base with us about a puppy, coming event, or just if you have questions about Shiloh shepherds, catch us at www.spartashilohs.com or email us at sparta.shilohs@gmail.com!

Thanks for reading, everyone!!
