At 7 weeks

This video by Dr. Susan Prokopenko shows a hint of what hard work is ... a litter of 11 Irish Wolfhound puppies. This is the Z litter at feeding time, when they were 7 weeks old. Our Liberty can be seen in the mob rush toward food; she's wearing a pink yarn collar.

Puppy action

This is a video by Dr. Susan Prokopenko of Glenamadda Irish Wolfhounds. It shows three puppies from the Glenamadda Starkeeper Z litter at 10 weeks. The puppy with the litter name of Zsa Zsa (hot pink collar) seen on the far right in the beginning of the video is now our Liberty, and very much enjoying her new Southern California lifestyle!

When the Best of Breed rankings were posted online for Jan. 1-July 31, we were thrilled to see that BISS CH Glenamadda Starkeeper Verity was No. 5 Irish Wolfhound.
