X  Update 3/21/18 - Scorch delivered 5 healthy pups, 4 boys and 1 girl! These are our Star Trek puppies - Bones, Spock, Scotty, Kirk and Uhura (or as we call her, Woo-hura!) We tried this breeding in summer of 2017 and didn't get a pregnancy, so this time we bred to Ruckus as well as Bootstrap. We will DNA type all the puppies to determine their sire for registration purposes. Update 5/1/18 - The DNA results are in - all five pups are sired by Ruckus. Update 5/23/18 - All the pups have gone to their new homes. We are keeping Bones and Woohura and look forward to lots of fun work and play and events with them. This is the second mating for Scorch, the second for Ruckus (he is the sire of our Orion) and the first for Bootstrap. We are excited about this mating because Bootstrap is an excellent quality dog with astonishing accomplishments; we are happy to be keeping him in the gene pool for our breed.

Click here to see the pedigree of this litter, full of great working and show dogs! Thick't is a sweet girl who has done well in the show ring and on the sledding trails.

We are leasing TuVee's niece Thick't to breed to Major. Contact Us if you are interested in a puppy sired by Major. We bred Major and TuVee in spring 2012, but did not get a pregnancy. Check back for updates and Contact Us if you are interested in a puppy from this breeding. TuVee is GCH Istari's TuVee or Not TuVee, WTD, WWPDX. A terrific working dog with a sweet temperament, we have admired TuVee in action at our CrowDitarod dogsledding events and weight pulls. TuVee won the Working Dog Showcase at the 2011 Alaskan Malamute Club of America National Specialty Show in Ann Arbor, Michigan. With both sire and dam descended from a long line of good working dogs, we anticipate puppies from this cross will have great temperaments and working drive. TuVee is owned by Helen and John Schultz of Tol Istari Malamutes in Spring Green, Wisconsin - so if puppies are coming, they will be born in Wisconsin. Helen and John sold us our foundation dog Procyon, the sire of Major. Take a look at TuVee in the slideshow below.
