Icelandics are Like Popcorn!

Sandi just sent me some recent photos of her current Blackstar litter. Her website is above on the right.
Here's her email: - sandidunn@mac.com
Drop Sandi a line if you might be interested in one of these wonderful puppies.

I love the little mostly white puppy, don't you? I also love the black & tan with white (called tricolors) pups. This is the age when they are irresistible. Aren't all puppies cute? There are four puppies: - one tan, white, and black male, two tricolor females, one pied tricolor male. Clicking on the photos will enlarge them.

Tricolor pup is Elna, a girl

Dad, Leiru Huni, is also a black & tan with white dog and he is from Iceland. If you look closely you can see that the "tan" of the black & tan with white is really extremely light, almost gray which is very unusual. The puppy with the most white is actually a pied tricolor.

Mom is Blackstar Birta whose lineage goes back to the revered old Palmahaus dogs from North America. (If you'd like Birta's pedigree, and/or Huni's pedigree, and/or a combined Birta-Huni pedigree, just ask me.) The inbreeding score for the litter is less than 1% (0.390%)

Below are photos of mom and dad.
