R Litter: Kodi x Cira, Winter 2026

Our R litter was Cira's first: six puppies born February 10, four sables and two black and tans. All six went home the first week of April. This was a drive litter, and we placed it that way. Two males went to IGP handlers in Washington and Montana, one female is in training with a search and rescue team in Oregon, and three went to experienced active homes in Idaho and Utah. At the seven-week evaluation every puppy in the litter went straight to the rag, and none of them startled at the dropped pan for more than a second. We will repeat this breeding in 2027 if the first hip and elbow prelims on these puppies look the way we expect.
