The boys are 5 weeks old tomorrow and their personalities are really coming out. They’re both curious and love to explore the new toys and areas we create for them. Gelert is more people-oriented and Guinefort thinks it’s his job to wrestle every toy in their puppy area at least once a day. Guinefort is very observant and loves to watch the other dogs in the house. Gelert will reach his paw through the bar and try to play with the other dogs.

They’re growing up so fast! They’ve already met a dozen people and we’re introducing them to new sounds and sensations every day, even though we wrapped up ENS and ESI a bit ago.

We’re very in love with these little fluffy boys and can’t wait to see how they keep developing.

Aelin has been running her butt off this year in ASFA! She finished her Field Championship (FCh) last year and we’ve been working towards her Lure Courser of Merit (LCM) title.

She recently took a Best in Field ribbon (thank you Kaylie for taking her!), out-running a Saluki and Cirneco! So far this year she has earned all the first placement titles she needs for her LCM and almost 100 points towards that title. She’s also currently in the top 20 for ASFA for the year.

We’re very very proud of this incredible girl and so in love with her zesty spirit.

We welcomed two lovely boys home on October 24th. They have gained so much weight, tried to eat each other’s feet, and tried to latch onto my nose. They’re all about the food 😂

One little boy looks exactly like his sire, Bubba, and the other looks like his grandsire, Solo. They’re such a darling pair; we adore them so much already!

Two years ago, Greenwood and Aeracura welcomed the most perfect singleton into the world. That’s not the beginning of the story, though. You see, this puppy was about a year and a half in planning and vet visits and swapping dogs to make sure the parents were together when they needed to be. This was a labor of love that Michelle and I undertook together because we knew this dog was worth it.

He is confident, happy, goofy, intelligent, driven, and a friend to all. He is able to work out solutions to problems quickly, he is resilient to new experiences (like swimming and jumping into the water), and he is just always down for any adventure. He is gorgeous, too, and so… so soft.

Not only was I lucky enough to help bring this gorgeous dog into the world, but I have the absolute joy of watching him grow up and be so close to me so I can just drive over to his house whenever I miss him. Beyond that, I also got to place him with one of my very best friends and watch them absolutely thrive together. All Michelle, Tyler, and I did was give Kaylie the raw materials of a great dog, and Kaylie turned him into this amazing boy that we all get to be so proud of every single day.

To say Pocus set the bar incredibly high for our program is an understatement. He will always be the gold standard of temperament for us, and the fact that he’s just so pretty on top of it was icing on the cake. Happy happy birthday, you hilariously endearing lad. I know you’re gonna be hella spoiled, as you should. 🫶🏻

Morning chaos with the puppies

06/12/2025

Hello, friends!

As you may know, we were part of the recent charge to BAER test spotted and higher white puppies with other wonderful breeders. We knew we wanted to BAER test when we embarked upon this journey with the Gryffyn Aeyrie dogs and we’re happy to add more data to the pool!

We tested all 7 puppies and 6/7 had full hearing. Red collar boy (affectionately nicknamed Skillet for now) is unilaterally deaf in his right ear. Unilaterally deaf means he still has full hearing in one ear. We’ve actually suspected this for a couple weeks now and I mentioned it to the tester. A friend on our discord server asked what signs we noticed that made us suspect Skillet was unilaterally deaf, and I want to preface this: I was on high alert for any signs of hearing abnormalities because of the high white in the parents, so I was examining these puppies constantly.

First, Skillet didn’t startle like his siblings when their ears first opened. That can be attributed to his ears opening late, absolutely, but he also had a really hard time locating where a sound was originating from. He’d stand in a corner of the whelping box and tilt his head and listen so extra hard and then he’d flip around and run the correct direction of the sound. This happened for about two weeks and then dissipated. He’s clearly figured out how to navigate the world with one ear and it hasn’t slowed him down at all… I assure you 💀

I wanted to get information from the testers and get pictures and video to show the process, in case anyone was curious! The first seven pictures are BAER results for Skillet and the rest of the puppies so you can compare. The audiologist explained that the peak and valley in blue is the left ear hearing and the same peak and valley in red is the right ear hearing. As you can see, all the puppies have both peaks and valleys in both ears. Skillet only has them in his left ear; right ear shows more of a straight line with slight dips and increases but not the peak and valley, which indicates he does not have hearing.

The next picture shows how they held the puppies to insert the needles and then throughout the test. The needles are tiny acupuncture needles and none of the puppies even noticed let alone fussed about it. They inserted one behind each ear and one on top of the head. The last picture shows the one on top of Skillet’s head. After they insert the needles, they put a little ear bud tube down in each ear canal for the puppies to listen for a clicking noise and that’s what’s recorded in the BAER test results. The video nested in the comments shows the little ear bud type device and how they put it in the ear canal.

Once all the puppies have registered names and numbers, results will be submitted to OFA as their first health test! Please let me know if you have any questions whatsoever. 🫶🏻

Aelin and Pocus are currently in the top 20 for ASFA for the year. We’re sure standings will shift before the end of the year, but we’re proud of both of them for doing their thing 🫶🏻

The puppies are showing lots of patience with us while we play dress up. A few of them were playful with the props, too. 🤪

Our cobred litter with Satara is getting bigger every day! We’re just so in love with them 😍

04/29/2025

Greenwood and Satara are so proud and delighted to announce our co-bred litter. We had 4 beautiful girls and 3 gorgeous boys arrive home with us today.

The litter theme is “Found in Translation.” Obscure, beautiful feelings in other languages.

More updates to come! Right now we’re just loving on the puppies and mama dog. Cuddles is doing so well as a mother, I couldn’t be more thrilled with how fast she took to the babies.

Happy to announce a cobred litter between Greenwood and Satara! With a huge thank you to Gryffyn’s Aeyrie.

Cruise and Cuddles are both incredibly special silkens and we are so excited to meet their lovely puppies! Cruise is an ISWS CH and UKC CH and a loving, gentle soul. He enjoys snuggling with Pardner, grooming Pocus, and singing for the household when he gets excited.

Cuddles is a finished UKC CH and GRC. She is also ASFA pointed. She is so sweet and a friend to everyone she meets. Usually she’s very go with the flow, but she’s locked in once she steps foot on the field.

In this pairing we hope to create beautiful, balanced movers who are handler-focused and able to explore with you. We hope for sporty babies we can do all the fun things with and we hope for some of the happiest, silliest silkens around.

We’ll post them once they’re here 🫶🏻
