Puppy number 9 just arrived. She’s struggling a bit, but we’re cautiously optimistic. Cross your fingers, ring your bells, light your candles. Hoping for the best!

We’re not sure if we’re done, but we’re at 8 healthy pups right now, and Mom is doing extremely well. More photos have been added to the puppies new photo album!

We’re now up to 5 puppies! Rosie whelped another wheaten male and a dark female. All doing well. We’re very excited.

Rosie’s puppies, sired by Brogan (CH Steppin’wolf’s Quantum Leap x Ch. Rosaleen Dhu, RN), have started arriving today. So far we have three thriving puppies, a brindle girl, a wheaten male, and a dark brindle male. Look for more updates soon!

Check the photo section to see some pictures of these cuties.

The Steppin’wolf gang headed out to Southhaven, Mississippi for the Olive Branch Kennel Club Confirmation Shows. Jonette and Donna met up with Larry and headed out together. In tow was Steppin’wolf’s C’est La Vie, “VeVe”, Steppin’wolf’s Leapin’ Lizards, “Lizzie”, and Ch. Steppin’wolf’s Quantum Leap, “Brogan”.

We are very proud of Brogan who took Best of Breed on both days!

On Saturday Steppin’wolf’s Leapin’ Lizards “Lizzie” got a nice first placement in the Bred-by class at only 15 months old beating out the other competition. She was handled proudly by Donna. Our special Ch.Steppin’wolf’s Dan Mon Couer “Twister”, also handled by Donna, took Best of Breed over a large entry of 20 wolfhounds!

On Sunday we came back for another day of showing. Entered on Sunday only, Steppin’wolf’s Quantum Leap “Brogan” (Lizzie’s littermate) took all took all the honors placing first in the 12-18 month class, getting picked as Winners Dog for a 5 point major, and then going on to win Best of Winners and Best of Breed! This boy is smoking hot, now racking up a third BOB!

Errol was sighted yet again this morning.

We are SO excited.

Jonette posted the following in response to someone’s question the news worthiness of Errol’s story to the Meridian people:

Errol’s family would like to thank the entire Meridian community for their help, generosity, and warm wishes for Destiny and Errol. Also to WTOK and the Meridian Star for their continued support and efforts in the search for Errol. These news stories are going out not just nationally but internationally via the internet to the Irish Wolfhound community and dog lovers everywhere. The world really is watching Meridian, MS in hopes of a happy ending. As Destiny continues to recover, her one wish is for Errol’s safe return home. Destiny is determined to return to Meridian in the near future to personally help in the search for her best friend. Again a big thank you Meridian from the Steppin’wolf family. Jonette Jones, Errol’s breeder and co-owner (and Destiny’s aunt. :0)

You, too can voice your thanks to WTOK and the people of Meridian who have continued to keep their eyes and their hearts open.

Today the local T.V. News reported again on Errol.
