🤎Miss Onja has arrived safely at her new home in Illinois and is settling in well. Unfortunately, her first retirement home didn't work out as we had all hoped it would as she and her daughter Fen, who was already in the home when Onja arrived, didn't quite agree on living together, but very quickly after I posted that I was needing to find a different retirement home for Onja, a fantastic option in Illinois was presented and after a successful meet and greet, Onja traveled with her new human back to Illinois and appears to be quite happy with her new arrangement! As I tell everyone who purchases a puppy from me, I am here for that person and their puppy for the life of the puppy, and the same goes for our older retired dogs. A Von Cluskey dog, no matter how old or at what stage in its life, is our responsibility for its lifetime and we will always be there to help them and their humans in any way we can! Onja is getting to do some tracking and will likely be doing some club level IGP work, which she will thoroughly enjoy. I am sorry her first retirement placement didn't work out as that would have been a fantastic home as well, but I am quite happy that a different situation was able to be found so quickly that is also a great fit for Miss Onja--she definitely deserves a long and happy retirement!🐺

Pictures from Cian's successful vehicle search at our NW1 the end of May. We were SO close to passing this NW1--we were successful in our vehicle, interior and exterior searches but we were sunk in our container search by the crazy shiny, slick gym floor. Containers have always been Cian's strong point and she has never before had any sort of surface issues, but this was the first time we had encountered a floor as shiny polished as this one was and she was having none of it. We'll try again the end of August. I had Cian's eyes checked just to be sure all is well and she got a completely clean bill of health, and I have also introduced her to the idea of wearing boots in case we encounter this type of flooring again (we do a lot of container searches on gym floors), so I and she will be better prepared next time. Each trial is such a learning opportunity, showing us things we are good at, have made improvement on, and, in this case, what we still need to work on, although in this instance, it wasn't something that I would have suspected we needed more exposure to! Training and trialing is such an amazing and fun journey!

How handsome is this boy! Got these pictures and update from Scout and his humans yesterday!
"We are absolutely in love with Scout. He is such a great dog. He’s so fun and energetic. We’ve been on lots of adventures and he loves being outside. We took him swimming at the lake (didn’t get any pictures unfortunately) but he definitely loves the water! He likes to chase the hose and you can’t water the garden without him getting wet! I plan on getting him on a paddleboard soon. Other than water, he loves toys, sniffing all the smells, walks, car rides, and of course treats!
We completed puppy classes and are looking forward to some obedience classes (hopefully in the near future). He is such a lover and gets along great with our golden retriever. He loves people and does well with our nieces and nephews too.
He’s so smart, picks things up fast, and is very adventurous!
He’s really a joy and such a sweet dog. Thank you!"
Good boy, Scout!

This girlie has ball drive even while she's sleeping! Proactivity at its finest--she won't even have to go find her ball when she wakes up, lol!
Less than a month until the "T" litter, who will be full siblings to this pretty girl, arrive!

Pictures from Cian and I's successful NW1 exterior search in Columbus, MT the end of May. It took a while to get the pictures, but they were worth the wait! Thank you to David from Creek Walker Photography for photographing and videoing the trial!

Other than being minus his tail (he lost it last year after an injury caused by a mouthy girl dog; now everyone thinks he looks like a bear) he's happy, healthy and still going strong at almost 9 years old! I absolutely adore this handsome guy and am excited to welcome he and Julie's pups next month and hopefully he and Uzzi's in September!

Miss Julie, who is starting to sport a bit of a baby belly, turned 6 years old yesterday! She asked for some cooler temps for her birthday and is hoping that the weather people were telling her the truth when they said they would send her some tomorrow and maybe even a bit of rain to make puddles for her to play in as those are even more fun than her swimming pool!! Happy birthday, Julie Blue--may you have many more ahead pretty girl!

Sometimes things can change in a hurry, and, unfortunately this has happened with Miss Onja in her retirement home. At first, all was going well with she and her daughter Fen, but recently discord has developed and is esculating and Onja and Fen have ceased to agree on co-habitation. So, Miss Onja is in search of a different retirement home. Given what has happened, I am going to highly recommend a home with no other female dogs. If she could be the only dog in the household, that would be super, but she always got along great with my males here, so a male housemate of her own size or larger should be fine. Onja is great in the house, loves to ride in the car, is great in public, loves to use her nose and searches for birch, anise and clove, and is an all around well-mannered, very well trained lady. She has a great off switch and is happy to settle if given sufficient exercise, both mental and physical. She adores her ball, loves to play tug and is thrilled to go on outings and adventures. She would be a great camping or hiking buddy. She is spayed and has no health issues. She turned 7 in March and has a lot of fun retirement years ahead of her! Please pm or call if interested in discussing Onja and whether she might be a good fit. Currently located in PA.
