Our Ch. Sir Darnley's Talisker Taste is proud mom of a black boy. As we knew from the scan that there is only one puppy, we decided for a cesarian section.

4 days old.

Nearly 2 weeks old and plenty of milk on offer.

At one month of age he moved from our living room into his own room. He already loves puppy food.

Tasty's Sohn with already 5 weeks.

This ist typical for a single puppy. As siblings are missing, he is allowed to join the rest of the Scottie family very early. The weather is not brilliant but at least dry - so off into the garden.

The first Parvo vaccination was a week ago. Now also visitors are allowed to play with Tasty's son. Here it is Niu, the 3 month old girl owned by my sister.

Our friend Kirsten Toftkjær visited us on her way from Crufts back home to Denmark. She had this sweet Cesky Terrier girl with her. The two puppies had a lot of fun together.

First try on the table. Not yet relaxed but still nice.

Now the little boy has a name: Sir Darnley's Volcano Vance.

Petra Detemple and her Scottie girls were here for trimming. Mabel (From Dash Mountain Farm's Prada) and Vance going mad.

Today family Kührt was here with their dogs.

Vance and  Emily had a lot of fun! He is "a real volcano"!!!

Another play mate: Vance with Rudi (Black Beauty's Amazing Sun) owned by Elke Wellendorf.

Our little boy has moved into his new family. Here he is living with Scottie girl Jock.

Only two months later the puppy turned into a Scottie!
