To get a Looney Leg you must breed two K-9s that have the trait that was announced for that particular month!

So if you love these traits as much as I do, you can only buy them from other breeders that already have them!

That’s all from me today, Happy New Year

Blancos and Mutts!

Hey everyone! We made it to Friday!!! I hope you all have an amazing weekend! Today I want to talk to you about some awesome K9s… the Blanco and Mutt K9s!!

What is a blanco?

The Blanco’s are K-9s that come from breeding two K-9s of the same color coats together. For example, breeding two Tan Tri-Color Beagles together could produce a Blanco Beagle. The coats on the Blanco K-9s do NOT have the ability to be passed on. The Blanco collars DO have the ability to be passed on. The following blancos are available:

Blanco Beagle
Blanco Boxer
Blanco English Bull Terrier
Blanco Husky
Blanco Jack Russell Terrier
Blanco Miniature Schnauzer
Blanco Pug
Blanco Yorkie
Blanco Wolf
Blanco Great Dane
Blanco Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Blanco Chihuahua
Blanco Cairn Terrier
Blanco Dogue de Bordeaux
Blanco Rottweiler
Blanco Doberman
Blanco Miniature Pinscher

 

 

 

Whats a Mutt?

The Mutts are what you have a chance of getting when you breed two FULL siblings together. In order to be FULL Siblings both K-9s must have the same mother and father. Now even though the Mutt coat DOES NOT have the ability to be passed on, the Mutt eyes DO have the ability to be passed on.

The following mutts are available:

Beagle Mutt
Boxer Mutt
English Bull Terrier Mutt
Husky Mutt
Miniature Schnauzer Mutt
Pug Mutt
Yorkshire Terrier Mutt
Jack Russell Mutt
Wolf Mutt
Great Dane Mutt
Chihuahua Mutt

 

You can read more and see pics of the Blacos and Mutts by visiting our wiki page at this link http://wiki2.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=K-9_Coats

Happy Blanco and Mutt breeding!

Twas The Night Before Christmas!

The time is almost here so I wanted to share a little holiday cheer!

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer,
With a little old driver so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
“Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky;
So up to the housetop the coursers they flew
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too—
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack.
His eyes—how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”
I hope Santa visits you all have yourself a Merry Christmas from all of us at Amaretto to you!!! This is Ava over and out!!

It’s Time For Amaretto Ranch University!

Happy Friday Amaretto Community! Today I would like to talk to you about the Amaretto Ranch University. We at Amaretto would love to see more of you attend the classes each week.  We have classes at ARU on Monday, Wednesday,Friday and Saturday! On Mon,Wed, And Fri the classes are given twice a day and once on Saturday to give you more of a chance to fit them into your schedule.  Each class will only take about 10-15 minutes and if you complete all the classes we offer you will be eligible to graduate in the next graduation ceremony.

Classes are very informative and can even be lots of fun!  We also offer time at the end of each class for you to ask any questions you might have about whatever we cover in class that day! It’s a great way to get the answers to some of those burning questions you might have.

Every month we post the calendar of classes on the website so you can see which classes are coming up and plan accordingly.
You can find that calendar at this link: http://amarettobreedables.com/pages/ARUCalendar

Once you start attending classes you will want to be able to keep up with which ones you’ve attended and which ones you still need. That means you will want to register on the ARU website so you can do that. While at the University there are kiosk’s in the back of the classroom that you touch and they give you a username and password in local chat.

Once you have that you can go to the Amaretto Ranch University website and log in!
http://amarettoranchuniversity.com/

ARUWeb

When you get to the website click on Course Progression and you will be able to enter your user name and password. From here you will be able to see what classes you have completed and which ones you still need to attend. I always tell people to give it at least a week to show up on the website as the University Chick is a busy girl!

Be sure to watch the Amaretto University Calendar for class schedules and we look forward to seeing you in class soon!

Happy Class Attending and Breeding!

Until next time!
