A few more of our breeding did their mentaldescription (BPH) last weekend. We didn’t take any photos this time. Instead we focused on getting videos, as they say even more than a picture in this case at least.
So this resulted in TufflaZ getting our own YouTube channel.
Mentaldescription and YouTube channel
We’ve started 2021 on a good note!
Our E-litter also know as the Eye-litter turned 1 year old on February 3rd and today on the 26th we got the last of their x-ray results! So fantastically committed owners fulfilling our wishes.
And the results are better than anyone could hope for <3
2020 has come to an end, finally!
So finally 2020 has come to an end! We do hope that 2021 will be a better year when we will get to meet our friends again at shows and other dog activities! We have had a good year considering the state of the world, it has had its ups and downs, you know – life as it is! We will give you the events of 2020 as we wish y’all a Happy New Year!
We started the year with and big up when we welcomed our Eye-litter
We kept two girls – T. Eye Lash Franz” (10 months old on the photo)
And T. Eye Candy ” Diza” with breeding rights (10 months old on the photo)
We lost our wonderful bitch T. Crazy Daisy ”Zäta” after she had to undergo surgery for patellar luxation that didn’t heal properly – this left us devestated..
In August we had a kennel gathering at beautiful Herrfallet, it was a success as we finally got to meet some friends, outside of course!
T. Cheer up Buttercup ”Lotuz” and his owner Lena got four qualifying results in a row making him Rally Novice (RLD N)
In August we got this wonderful girl, T. For Tune, back since she didn’t fit with the other dog in her family! Sometimes we have to believe in fate as we didn’t really want to sell her when she was a puppy and now here she is back home!
We had no shows 2020, but Finland had a few and the fantastic T. Double or Nothing ”Uno” did a hat-trick making him Finnish Show Champion!
Ztella had a busy year as she had a second litter fall! We got welcome 7 new lives into the world
And once again we kept two puppies, but one male T. Goes to Show ”Biz”
And his sister T. Goes Dutch ” Zplit”
During the year we have had one more big down though, surronded by ups, life is good at giving us curved balls!
So these are the health checks done during 2020:
T. Atteso – eyes clear and patella 0/0
T. Appariscente – patella 0/0
T. Alba – eyes partial cortical cataract, mild.
T. Amorosa – eyes PRA
T. Buon Baciatore – eyes clear and patella 0/0
T. Buona Regina – eyes clear
T. Double or Nothing – patella 0/0
T. For Life – HD C, ED 0, eyes clear and patella 0/0
T. For Richer or Poorer – HD C, ED 0, eyes clear and patella 0/0
T. For Tune – HD B and ED 0, eyes clear and patella 0/0
T. For Fox Sake – HD A and ED 0
T. For King and Country – HD C, ED 0, eyes clear and patella 0/0
As you can see one of our bitches has been diagnosed with PRA (progressive retinal atrophy) so we have made her and her mother Bonebreakers Girasole available for the research that is going on at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. Her siblings and offspring has given blood and we hope that they will find the gene or genes that cause PRA in lagotto soon. Right now the Swedish Lagotto Club has started a fundraiser to help the university. Please donate, every penny counts!

New champion
We are extremly proud to announce that Uno – TufflaZ Double or Nothing – now can add the title FI Ch (Finnish champion) before his name!
He has been shown a total of 6 times in Finland with 1 x BOB, 1 x BOS, 3 x CAC and 1 x R-CAC. The three CAC’s came back to back in a hat-trick this fall, he is 2,5 years old.
He has been shown in Norway at Norwegian Lagotto Speciality Show in May 2019, he was BM3 with R-CAC from junior class. In November 2019 he went BOS with CACIB two days in a row in Estonia.
We are very proud of his team, that cares for, loves and handles him to perfection. We could show you endless pictures of this beautiful boy, but here are our favourites taken by his groomer Laura Rontu.
Loads of updates
So a large part of 2020 has passed by and the world is not to be recognized.
We have had a calm year with no shows, but we are enjoying our young lady Franz (T. Eye Lash) that was born in February.
On August 7-8 we had a kennel gathering combined with the first meeting for our E-litter as they turned 6 months.
You can see more about the meeting under Kennelträffar.
We have had many health checks done and you can as always see all results under Avkommor and more information about each dog on their own pages.
