Available Papillons!

UPDATE:  1-12-2010  The Available pages of my website have been fully updated to reflect current availability.  You can go there and see multiple pictures and even more info about these wonderful dogs needing new homes.  Yes, I know.  The Inquiry page still isnt working properly.  Just send me an email if you are interested.  ~

At this point in time, we have several papillons looking for their new forever homes!  If you are interested in adding one of these beautiful furkids to your family, please send an email to SerenadePapillons@gmail.com

*NOTE*  I have been informed that my inquiry page is not working properly.  I appologise for this and will have it fixed as soon as I can at this busy time of year.  In the mean time, please just send me an email directly and be sure to include as much detail about your family as possible.  The more I know you, the better the chance I'll be able to make sure you are the right match for your new family member!!

Bruiser and Sissy-  Sable and white littermates out of our Champion Sammy.  I will post photos soon, but Bruiser has a perfect face.  Symmetrical wide noseband and blaze makes him very flashy.  He also has a fair amount of body coloring, which makes him beautiful.  Sissy had a large blaze at birth, but it has closed in some.  Her noseband is symmetrical and her blaze is very thin between the eyes and widens at the top of her head.  I think it gives her a very sweet and ellegant look!  Both are very playful and outgoing, love everyone, and willing to please.  They are about 12 weeks old now and would be happy in a new home with or without the other.  They love other dogs and get along great with cats!  They love our 10 month old daughter too!  These puppies are slightly larger than average, but not by much.  I'm expecting them to fill out at around 7-8 pounds when full grown and after spay/neuter.  They have HUGE ears and nice bodies, but we expect they will be "sport coat papillons" and have the same luscious coats- only shorter.  (Think about it.. less grooming and less dog hair!  WIN-WIN!!)  Either pup would be great for agility or obedience.  They are available to pet homes only on spay/neuter contracts.  Breeding homes need not inquire.

Piper-  Piper is a sweet and playful 2 year old girl.  Piper needs a home of her own.  She is a spunky little tri with a small blaze.  She has a lovely coat texture, but is lacking in length.  Also lovingly considered a "sport coat papillon."  Her tail is always wagging and she loves EVERYONE and everything!  She is always ready to play or to cuddle, just so long as she is with you.  Piper is sired by our CH Merlin.  She has the structure it takes to show, but has minor things that would fault her in the ring-  none of which keep her from being an excellent companion.  For example, Piper is only 9 inches tall at the shoulder, coupled with her lack of blaze, and smaller ears than preferred, she just wouldnt make it in the show ring.  However, if I was to place all my dogs and keep one as a pet-  Piper would be the pet I'd keep.  No bias necessary, she's just a great girl!

  More info and photos can be found on our "Available Pets" Page on the website or by clicking HERE.

I hope to have photos added within the next day or two!  Thanks for your interest!!

What a Weekend!!

Well, all in all, the trip was worth it.  Despite the shows being horribly organized and running over FOUR HOURS behind, with an extremely rude host, we came back with some amazing results!

Nemo was shown by my mother this weekend!  Her first time in the ring, Nemo earned Best of Breed against steep competition with tons of complements from the first judge.  He was overjoyed to see a papillon with such "excellent type and breeding."  Nemo went on to take a GROUP ONE and narrowly missed Best in Show..  Next time Nemo.. Next time!!

Cody took Best of Breed twice against a group placing, Multi Champion, then went on to a GROUP TWO!!  SO CLOSE!!  Cody's coat was in a bit of disrepair after shipping him home- if he would have been in complete condition, he would have nailed it!  The second judge watched him like a hawk and when I put him on the table, he just watched.  He came up to me and said "Now THAT is one HE** of a Showdog!!"  That SO made my day!

Both boys came away with a neck full of medals, a group placement, and their INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!!  We are so proud of them!!

Win photos will be posted when they arrive!

Welcome Home Cody-Co!!

At LOOONG last, my boy is home!  Cody went up with Addi to Canada and once he started showing, finished quickly.  He finished in style with a five point major, almost taking breed.  It's been over a year and he's still the same goof-ball he was when he left!

We are looking forward to earning Cody's American titles and his first Seranade puppies!  Cody's first litter at Satori is looking great and his daughter Tori is doing great so far in the show ring!  Now that DaVinci has their first Cody litter, its my turn!  lol

Wish us luck this weekend as we are making the long trip up north to try for Cody and Nemo's International Championships!  Its so good to have him back!!

NEWSFLASH!! CODY IS A NEW CHAMPION!!!

I just heard from MJ, Cody's handler in Canada.  At today's show:

Cody won WINNERS DOG and BEST OF WINNERS

for a

FIVE POINT MAJOR

meaning that Cody will forever more be known as

CHAMPION

SERENADE'S CODE OF HONOR!!!

MJ said he almost took BOB and the ONLY dog to beat him all day was BIS!  What a way to finish!

A heartfelt THANK YOU goes out to all the judges that recognised Cody's quality, to Cody's breeder, April Munger of Serenity Papillons, and most of all, to Cody's AMAZING handler and my very very dear friend, MJ Kurulak of Zenzero Papillons.  It wouldn't be possible without you all!

Hopefully we will have Cody's finishing photo soon, and of course, it will be posted immediately upon arrival!

WAY TO GO CODY-CO!!!

MJ and Cody Makin' Big Waves!!!

Cody had a marvelous show weekend in Osoyoos, BC this week!

On Friday, Cody decided to act out but still did well enough to earn himself Reserve under judge Butch MacDonald !

On Saturday, after a nice chat with MJ, Cody stole the heart of Chie Ejima- world famous breeder judge of Queen Bless Papillons in Japan- and took Winners Dog and BEST OF WINNERS for 2 more points!!  Chie told MJ she loved his outline and his elegance! 

What an honor!!

On Sunday, Cody and MJ do it again taking Winners Dog and BEST OF WINNERS AGAIN (2 more points!) under a notorious movement judge Wayne Thompson! 

Win Photo Coming Soon!!

We are so proud of these two!  Cody now has 6 points total towards his Canadian Championship, leaving only four more to go!  He will be entered for another three day show at the end of the month, and again the first of October.  Hoping he finished in the next shows, he would be specialed in the early October shows and then would return home to resume showing here!

Mr. Merlin comes home!! With a friend!!!

After a long vacation, Merlin is finally heading home, and he's not coming alone! 

Seranade is thrilled to welcome Iris, or I'm Little Ines vom Cavalierchen, to our home! 

Iris is the daughter of Multi Ch Queen Bless JP Tri Something and Multi Ch Alina Queen Star vom Cavalierchen, and she is arriving just in time to visit with our new superstar, Nemo!!  We are so excited about these puppies we can hardly stand it!

A HUGE Thank you goes out to Linda Cay of Caylo Papillons for the chance to own such a sweet little girl!

Updated photo coming soon!  Iris is much older now!

As with any Seranade litter, we are breeding for ourselves but not all puppies turn out for show homes.  We are starting our waiting list for pet homes now.  Serious show homes are welcome to inquire as we do occasionally place show prospects. 

*Show puppies are placed on a case by case basis with a co-ownership and a first generation contract.

Our New SUPERSTAR!!!

Over labor day weekend I was given the opportunity to fly to Germany to visit with my good friend Regina Keller of vom Salamandertal Papillons!  While there we had a marvelous visit and I was able to meet her wonderful family and gorgeous dogs..  I saw her most recent puppies and fell in love with Nala- Night Surprise vom Salamandertal.  She has the most beautiful face.. but Nala was not the reason for my trip!  The reason for my trip was Nala's father, Multi Int CH Scooby Dooby Doo Forussi, or "Nemo."

Nemo has been a favorite dog of mine for many years and I never dreamed I would ever get to meet him, let alone touch him, hug him, own him.  Nemo is the sweetest dog I believe I have ever met.  He is so laid back and calm and you can see the pure devotion in his eyes.  After seeing him in person it didnt take long to know he was coming home with me!

The trip back to the US went without trouble.  Our first stop was my parents home where Nemo now lives.  He is their pet to love and spoil and mine to show the world!  My Mom used to go to dog shows with me and even though she knew nothing about dog shows, she immediately noticed one thing:  Some people have "show dogs" and others have "babies."  The show dogs are taken in the ring, then back in the kennel.  All business.  But the babies are talked to, played with, loved!  Nemo may be a world renowned Multi Champion show dog- but don't be fooled- he's really our baby!

My heart goes out to my dear friend Regina for the opportunity to love such a beautiful boy.  I am ever grateful!

Lots of Changes!

Over the last few months there have been a lot of changes going on at Serenade!  Right off the bat you may notice the new design and the new spelling of our name..  You have probably also noticed you cant access all the pages of our website!

As of this moment we are anxiously awaiting a very, very special new arrival- a pivotal point for "Seranade." 

Check back with us on the evening of September 6th, 2010 when our website will be unlocked and our new arrival will be announced!

It's going to be BIG!!

December 12th, Addi stepped it up a notch and took Winners Dog for another 2 points! Thank you Judge Ross! This brings his total to 4 points! That means Addi is almost half way to his Canadian Championship!
