On September 8th, after trying to deliver her puppy for 2 days Journey underwent a C Section and gave us a single puppy.

I told her that just because we’ve been talking of down sizing in our retirement years, that it didn’t mean Litter Size!

Journey’s  baby is gorgeous, a little male of average weight…he is perfect and very healthy.  Gaining weight every day.

We have never raised a singleton puppy at Rushwind before.  I know that there is always a concern of puppy socialization and missing that stage of puppy play….  Well, we have Trixie and Thomas all lined up and waiting at the whelping  box to help with that!  The little baby Prince is getting lots of lap time already as he hangs out with us every evening when we watch TV.

His favorite thing is to drape himself over a warm water pop bottle inside a fleece sock.  Works perfectly.

Hopefully, Journey will give us larger litters in the future.  “Tess” will grow up and be added to our breeding program also.

We are not accepting applications on this little boy, but you can enjoy the weekly photos of his progress.

After taking a bit of a break, we are ready and excited to announce a couple of planned breedings before the end of 2022.

“JOURNEY”- (if all goes as planned) should have Border Terrier babies by September 2022.

“LIZZIE”- We are planning an All Yellow Labrador litter for early winter 2022-23.

This lovely little girl is 9 months old already and I am just now adding her website Page.  She is one of Journey’s pups from the “Girly Girl”litter of two!

She is a Blue and Tan.  A lot of personality and out going….no fear.  We need to keep an eye on her at all times or she will be gone to the woods.  Once she matures a bit more, we will start her in the show ring.

Check out her Page:     RUSHWIND LONG DISTANCE ROMANCE    “TESS”

We recently received a few proofs of his work.

Very exciting, as the photo shots turned out Great!

If you’d like to see more, there is a quick video clip on their site with his Christmas Pajama Family.  Go to matildajaneclothing.com and look around.  Merry Christmas from Rushwind “Rusty”!

We were recently contacted by a producer from CA that was looking for a Border Terrier to do a photo shoot for Matilda Jane clothing (NY)  Christmas Catalog.  After an interview on the phone, and pictures off our website, we got a call that Rusty was hired!

On Sept. 2nd we arrived at a massive and impressive Island Lodge in northern WI.  Having to ride over to the Lodge on a ferry and being met by the director and producer, we knew we were going to have a Great Day!  The Production Crew of 20+ members consisted of photography, coordinators, lighting, hair and make-up, personnel from the clothing line, models from the Talent Agency, and Rusty!  Dan and I learned so much about what it takes to make everything click and put together a professional Ad.

Below are some pictures of the sets, but the rule was that we could not have our phones out during the actual shoots.  We will get a catalog sometime in November.  Exciting stuff!
