My friends in Norway, Ragne & Stig Rune, owns two Working Aussie bitches that I helped import. One came from Germany in 2010, the other came from USA this spring. Here are a couple of photos;
Black C/W bitch (Doc Pieper’s Dark Muzi) ”Muzi”
Blue Merle C/W bitch (Kidd’s Thunder Baby) ”Beibi”
The spring move of our herd is finally over and here’s a photo of Chippa & Rocki waiting for work (April 2013)!
Today it’s six years since my best dog of all-time ”Chippa” was born in Denmark. These six years has been an amazing experience for me together with my best friend. I’m blessed with this dog! 🙂

Igår flyttade den underbara lilla valpen ’Beibi’ till Norge med Ragne Kristine Smuk. Det känns skönt att förmedla en sådan fin liten valp och jag är helt säker på att Ragne kommer att vara nöjd med sin lilla hund! Vi ser fram emot att träffa dem båda igen i juni!
Our puppies arrived to Sweden Monday morning (April 1st) and it was the craziest experience ever. Not to bother telling details about it, I’ve decided to never ship a puppy/dog alone again. It’s actually cheaper (and easier!) to fly overseas and pick them up…
I was outside taking a couple of photos of our new arrivals today;
Toya: is the sweetest little puppy! She’s very outgoing and happy, very social and loving. I’m crazy about my new puppy and can see plenty of potential in her.
Beibi: is a very outgoing puppy. She loves people but is also a lot more independent. I have a great feeling about this little puppy and believe Ragne Kristine will be very happy with her addition.
I would like to give the greatest THANK YOU to Randy Kidd in Idaho, USA for raising these wonderful puppies together with his family. They’ve done a great job with them!
Hello everyone, how are you doing?
Time’s running by, I just looked at the calendar and realized that we’re entering the end of March already. There’s not many days left until our new addition ”Toya” will arrive from USA. I’m planning to drive down to Arlanda (Stockholm airport) on April 1st and she’ll arrive early morning the next day (2nd). Of course, she won’t be traveling alone. Her littermate sister ”Beibi” will accompany her and continue her travel up to the very north part of Norway. She’s going to live with Ragne Kristine Smuk (the sister of Muzi’s owner).
There’s so much more going on in my life so I apologize for not updating sooner…
I wish you a wonderful Easter!
Three years ago I flew to Germany to get a beautiful little black puppy (breeder: Kay Pieper) to my friends in Norway, the Smuk family. Ragne and I had been in touch for a couple of years before they decided to buy an Australian Shepherd. I was very happy to be able to help them find a good Working Aussie. Muzi’s parents were both ASCA working trial champions, Solo & Sombra. The picture below is Muzi at the age of three years. She’s very cute, and I hear that she’s a good stockdog too! 😉 Picture is taken by Ragne Krisitne Smuk.
P.S: Ragne isn’t to owner of Muzi herself but she’s waiting on her first Working Aussie. Ragne will import a puppy from USA with me in March, we’re both very excited about our puppies… 🙂
We’ve decided to buy a puppy! Or the correct words would be; I’ve decided to buy a puppy…
We currently have two dogs at home (Chippa & Raili, a mix-bred pup that my father owns) but none of them are trial dogs and I really want to get out there and trial in the ASCA stockdog program once more. When I last showed my dog Chippa at a stockdog competition I had so much fun, although I was very nervous. Well, I’ve retired Chippa from the show-pen and haven’t yet had the pleasure to find another dog that’s worth showing.
I have high believes in this puppy and I really hope that she’ll be the working dog I’m looking for. She’s out of an exciting pedigree including the old Hangin’ Tree, Las Rocosa, Woods & Slash V lines. I’ve decided to call her TOYA. Isn’t she cute?

Today my ASCA weapon litter turned two years old. I miss my ’puppy’ Sakko so much and wish he would still be with us. Here’s a photo of Tikka (JSD 2010 Miss Tikka Likka) that Mathilda published on facebook…

Ami blev startskottet på ett enormt intresse för renrasiga hundar. Aldrig hade jag träffat en mer lättlärd och lojal hund…
Vi fick hem Ami när jag just fyllt 13 år efter en hel del tjat på mina föräldrar. Hon kom snart att bli startskottet på ett enormt intresse för renrasiga hundar och hon tände en passion för just Australian Shepherd. Aldrig hade jag träffat en mer lättlärd och lojal hund.. Ami var den typ av hund som gjorde absolut allt för sin förare, trots min unga ålder. Hon va lättstyrd och lättmotiverad. Hon hade egentligen inga egna intressen, men levde genom mig och ville göra allt för min skull. En bättre vän blev svår att hitta!
Tyvärr hade Ami inga bättre nerver samt saknade alla vallinstinkter jag hade önskat i en Aussie. Men hennes andra kvalitéer gjorde att jag fortsatte att gräva efter kunskaper och 1.5 år efter henne hittade vi Chippa i Danmark…
