So proud of my little Farlanders! First time the breeders had a weekend off from showing and our little basenjis were showing without us.

Farlanders Edited By Me "Elly"  finished her Baltic Junior Championship at Ukmerge (LT) show and is now EST&LV&LT&BALTIC JCH, EST&LV JW-2015. Elly was shown in open class on Sunday and was BOB, so she has her LT CAC waiting for her already for the future. Great job Ly and Elly, could not be more proud of you.

Our little "Hope" (Farlanders Gonna Make You A Star) (Crystal Javelin Lusien x Farlanders Busy Bumblebee) had her first show weekend at Elva national shows. Hope was on Saturday BOB Puppy and BIS-4 Puppy, congrats Emma and Aivi. 

We have a brand new C.I.B

Bumblebee (EST&LV JCH, EST&LV&LT&BALTIC CH, EST JW-2013, BALTIC W-2013 &-2014 Farlanders Busy Bumblebee) (out of Bulldobas Blockbuster x Faraoland Viking Idun) took her last CACIB at Pärnu International show under judge Jelena Kruus, Estonia and was also BOB.

On Sunday evening, January 19th, our E-litter was born. Many years ago we already decided that for Iti's last litter we will be repeating the combination of her first litter, Farlanders A-litter, from where we got our Stormy, who was the only puppy then. So the parents are:

EST&LT JCH, LT JW-2007, EST&LV&LT&BALT CH, EST W-2008,
BALT W-2010, EST W-2012
Faraoland Viking Idun.

We have one boy and three girls, all red&white.

As there are more girls than we were expecting (Iti is known as the mother of boys (until now 10 boys and 2 girls)) we may have a girl who is still looking for a show home. If you are interested you are welcome to contact us.

Even the wildest dreams can come true

Stormy is a big boy now

On the 30th of July our Stormy turned 18 months, so he is finished with his junior class career now.

And what a career it was, we would never have dared to dream of something so big.

In 9 months Stormy was entered in junior class 25 times, 16 times he was BOB Junior and 4 times BOS Junior.

Here are some of the highlights of Stormys Junior class career:

Our new generation starts their show carieer :)

It is unbelievable how fast time flies, our B-litter turned 6 moths old on 14th of July. Happy birthday my darlings Tjorven, Chilli, Nupsik, Charly and princess Bumblebee, it was almost like yesterday when you all were just running around together at home with mam Iti and big brother Stormy.

But now they are all big basenjis already and 3 out of 5 have had their first show experiences.

The day got only better and better, firstly BIS puppy under Wes McCrum and Tjorven was BEST IN SHOW PUPPY.

Next we had BIG and once again by judge Wes McCrum. Stormy did great being BIG-2.

And then it was Stormys last Junior BIS turn, as Stormy turned 18 months 2 days later. BIS Junior was judged by Jurate Butkiene (Latvia). And Stormy DID IT, he won BEST IN SHOW JUNIOR.

Kennel Farlanders wants to thank all the judges who made this special day happen and all our friends who were there to celebrate it with us. This does not happen everyday that you can go home with BEST IN SHOW PUPPY  and BEST IN SHOW JUNIOR!!!

Health tests

We had today all our grown up dogs eyes tested and got some really great news.

Faraoland Viking Idun (Iti) 6,5 years – eyes clear

This means we are planning to have puppies in kennel Farlanders this winter.

Lots of news

The few last months have been busy and successful for our kennel. So now it is the time to rally up the most important achievements, lets start from the freshest:

3 months old

Farlanders B-litter is 3 months old now:)

All our puppies have found their new homes. Farlanders Because I Can “Tjorven” and Farlanders Busy Bumblebee “Bee” will stay with us at kennel Farlanders and will be our next generation show dogs. Farlanders Barefoot Vagabond is co-owned by us but will live in Pärnu with his new family. Farlanders Boy With Chill Attitude moved near to Tallinn and Farlanders Buster On A Mission is living in Tartu now. We are happy that all our puppies stayed in Estonia, so we will have the opportunity to see them quite often.

In last 3 weeks we have had 3 dog shows.

31.03 Rakvere all breed show

10 years with basenjis

It has been busy few weeks at kennel Farlanders.

On last Friday Jaro (Farlanders Buster On A Mission) moved to his new home. Yesterday Chilli (Farlanders Boy With Chill Attitude) moved away also. Both of boys are going to live with children. We still have very promising puppies for show homes as a co-owned basenjis.

Farlanders B-litter

We are proud to present Farlanders B-litter:

Puppies :)

We’ve had fantastic last 5 weeks, mainly because of the puppies but also because of two shows.

Stormy was entered in Tartu for the 15.01.12 show, just after becoming big brother. He was also supposed to participate on 14.01 but he stayed home to be there for the little ones.

Stormy got ex 1, JUN CAC, BOB JUN  and BOB. With this he became EST JCH. In finals we had super success being BIG-4 and BIS JUN-3.

That was a great weekend for kennel Farlanders.

Another show was on 20.01.12, the Narva all breeds show. This time Mia was entered as well, as it was her first show at 2 years of age.

Mia was ex 1, EST CAC, BOS. With this she become EST&LV&LT&BALT CH.

Stormy was ex.1, BOB JUN, BOB and in finals Stormy showed how it is done. He was BIG-2 and BIS JUN-2. For both under judge IGOR SELIMOVIC from Croatia.

Summary of 2011

All of this is so unbelievable, not only to have a great show dog, but to be breeder of this fantastic boy. So biggest thanks goes to my Mom and Tiina Taavitsainen (kennel Bulldobas) for making this dream come true.
