Avenpart have had the misfortune of having the sudden deaths of Avenpart Verve followed by Avenpart Gellybean . It is suspected by the vets that it was Blue Green Alae poisoning in dam water. A warning to all dog owners do not let your dogs drink or swim in stagnant water left over from the floods or any dams with very green water especially after a hot spell of weather. We are awaiting blood and water test results. The deaths also could have been due to this snake that was hanging around the exercise pen. Both dogs will be missed dearly.

“She is really cute, super active and athletic.  She seems biddable and interested in working and learning.  She loves her new family and just wants to interact with everyone and everything.  Thanks for selecting her for us.  And SUPER thanks for all your time and effort on getting her to the USA”

Avenpart Dom’s Genetics to Canada 

Semen from Avenpart Dom was exported to a breeder in Canada in 2022 and joined to Nomak Sophie (Bidgee Comb x Avenpart Stormy)

Photos to the right and below are of Bidgee Comb and Avenpart Vesnina working on Stuart Iddles Dairy Farm.   I leased Vesnina for a litter by Bidgee Comb and I have kept a dog out of a previous litter by Bidgee Comb x Avenpart Verve to keep in the Stud. Avenpart Eveready.

     One of Colins employees breeds and trains Clydesdale horses and he brought them out to Avenel to camp on the creek for Easter. The weather is magnificent so we were all treated for a ride around the village this morning.

       We would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Very Happy Easter for 2022.

Love
