This weekend, Coco stepped into the show ring in Petawawa Ontario, and earned her place among the list of 32 show Champions and Grand Champions on the MapleMyst Team. We are proud of what she and her owner-handler Catherine have done together in just a few shows! Cat is now setting her sights on Therapy Dog certification next month... We wish them luck and cheer them on after this beautiful "Finnish"!

A Touch of Spring Magic… Our 20th Litter Is on the Way!

We are thrilled to share that our Zyra and the ever-charming Rookie of the Shadagrace family have written a brand‑new chapter for us—our 20th MapleMyst litter, expected to make a grand entrance in the last week of April. Tiny paws and a whole lot of promise are on the horizon, and we couldn’t be more delighted.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Gloria and Debbie for sharing Rookie to sire this special milestone litter. And a warm, grateful nod to Stephanie, whose steadfast support continues to lift and strengthen the MapleMyst breeding program.

Here’s to new beginnings, and to the little lives soon to brighten our world.

(All pups will go to homes on our waiting list).

We are thrilled to welcome Coco (MapleMyst's Peppermint and Hot Cocoa) to the MapleMyst team! Coco is from our Kelkka and Bandit litter.

She will live with co-owners Catherine and Carmen, and spend time with us at conformation and performance events.

A huge thank you to Jackie and Cheryl (Midnight Island) for allowing Bandit to sire Kelkka's first brood, and to Pattie (PineSky) for co-breeding this litter.

The pepperlings attended their very first photo shoot today, and made it very easy for me to get some great photos!

Aila’s 3 little pepperitos, 2 boys and 1 girl, arrived safely yesterday!

While it was immediately tempting to go with a cookies and cream theme, we stuck to our original plan to go with something that is more in keeping with Momma Aila’s character.

Introducing Salsa (cream girl) and her 2 spicy
sidekicks, Pico and Tabasco.

Congratulations to Aila and to Daddy Haldi!

Our pups are now 7 weeks old and slowly we are starting to get them ready for their next great adventure. This week we honor Mari's namesake.

You may not know about the movie, “Mari and Her Three Puppies,” which recounts the true story about a Shiba Inu and her loyalty to her human family and her new born pups. The true story of Mari begins with one of the deadliest tremors to hit Japan in 2004. The three strongest quakes happened in just under 40 minutes. An elderly man who was trapped beneath a cabinet, was cared for and saved by his Shiba Inu, Mari, who also cared for her three puppies at the same time. Eventually, the man was able to get out from under the rubble and was safely evacuated by helicopter but Mari and her puppies could not accompany her owner, as rescuers placed a priority on saving humans first. However, the owners did return after two weeks and found a still-alive Mari, albeit gaunt, taking care of her well-fed and plump pups.

And then there is of course, the story of the "other" Mari, the one who has mastered the art of trolling her owner on camera on Youtube. We will never tell which one inspired us, but the background may give it away!
