Bonnie sent me this picture of 9 1/2 month old Remi (out of Juneau)! Remi's face looks like a yellow version of his daddy Kenai!

"School pick up. He waits patiently for his girl to walk out."

Thanks for keeping in touch, Bonnie!!!

Chocolate coats on Labrador Retrievers are very interesting. Niki (left) is actually a very dark chocolate girl, similar to Shelby (right). However since our girls are outside, their coats get sunbleached. I'm always envious of my client's indoor Zumi's Labs in their beautiful show-ready coats! I've attached a photo of Niki in her new coat as well.

Mallory has a year old Spirit/Kenai puppy! Her parents also have two Zumi's Labs! Mallory was kind enough to share this note!

“My husband met this dog trainer in Columbia Falls…..he was telling the guy we had a really good English lab. Guy asked who was the breeder.....my husband was saying Rappy came from Victor MT, and before he could finish the guy said oh, Zumi…..I’ve trained over 30 of those dogs…..by far the best dogs! Just wanted you to know.”

Thank you, Mallory!!! You made our day!!!

Our chocolate girls are our fifth generation of amazing temperaments, great health, and correct conformation. I took Shelby to get her heart checked by a Veterinary Specialist yesterday. Part of the Health Clearances as recommended by OFA, the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, a Health Registry. Five generations of good, sound health, in all aspects! Shelby will be bred to Kenai when she comes into heat!

Niki is such a character!

Brian sent me this more than two weeks ago already. Boone is just 8 1/2 months old in this picture. Out of Juneau and Kenai. His first pheasant hunt!

"Boone was phenomenal today, flushing and retrieving 4 pheasants."

Kit is such a sweet girl, but often times difficult for me to photograph. She was laying on this pile of sand so I though I would snap some pictures of her. The closer I got, the happier she got! I love how her body language and facial expressions change.

Zumi's Kit And Kaboodle, daughter of two International Champions. OFA Hips and Elbows, Eyes Clear, Heart Clear, PRA Clear, CNM Clear, D-Locus Clear, Full Dentition.

Kit came into heat yesterday. Her puppies by Kenai will be ready for their new homes at the end of January. If we don't breed her now, her next litter won't be ready until August.

I got home from my Yellowstone trip Sunday evening. The dogs were happy to see me! I grabbed some photos of them yesterday,

Today I head out for a solo trip to Yellowstone National Park. MY HAPPY PLACE! Rob didn't want to join me, but he's looking forward to hunting next month.

It's been a week since Juneau went to her new home with her Kenai daughter, Kieran. So I wrote Dave and Julie to check on her.

“All great here Nanette.They get along great!

She is doing better than we could have hoped in the house. You would not know she was an outside dog. No accidents, no destructive chewing, etc. She does like to follow us everywhere in the house and Kieran feels obligated to do the same, so it is a bit of parade. Juneau listens great, and we walk her without a leash as you can see in the pics. She likes to explore, but always comes back when called. When we take her to town we have her on the leash and she walks perfectly on our left side. All good!”

It looks and sounds like the perfect retirement life to me!

I just received this email this morning! Shelby's OFA's came in. Good Hips and Normal Elbows! It's always great to receive the wonderful affirmations of great breedings! Shelby is our fifth generation girl! She is out of INT CH Zumi's Gift Of Tika and INT CH Woodland Hills Zumi's Grizzly Bear CGC.

I heard from Jesse! He has our retired girl, Spirit, and Spirit and Kenai's two year old son, Charlie!

"Hey Nanette,

We took a job in Alaska and moved here just recently. Today is my first day in Anchorage. This is where we will be calling home for now. Spirit is doing wonderful, she has very quickly become my best friend. She never leaves my side and other than her insatiable appetite. She is an amazing dog. Thanks again and I will definitely keep in touch more often.

Thanks again for two amazing dogs!"

"Our little guy “Marz” (Kit/Kenai) is growing fast and keeping us entertained! He’s full of zoomies, loves every family member, and sometimes hops around like a little bunny on a mission for his next reward. He’s curious, mischievous, and already the star of the house. Whether he’s chasing toys, river swims, or showing off his silly puppy energy, he’s pure joy. We’re so thankful for him—he’s made our family even happier (and a little more chaotic in the best way!)."
