Quito with 4 day old puppies

We are pleased to announce that the SP Kennel Summer 2011 puppies have arrived! Even though they arrived a few days before their due date, all five are healthy. Four boys and a girl were born August 17th to first-time mother, Quito, and proud father, Biscuit.

Enjoy – the “Pup”dates.

  • Yea, PUPPIES! Does coming early mean that they are raring to start their racing careers?
    Good job Quito and Biscuit- beautiful pups!

  • Re. the name thing: I actually wanted to suggest "Hispanic bread" names — i.e eponymic respect for Biscuit and Quito — but could only come up with Tortilla and Chapati… Perhaps somebody else knows more names like these?

  • The puppies are beautiful! I think Quito whelped early so she would be in top form for racing season …

    Acknowledging that the naming choices are the prerogative of SP, I always enjoy puzzles, so to answer Mac. Chapati is from India. The tortilla is the Americas version of chapati.

    cookie – galleta
    wafer – oblea
    bread – pan
    matzoh – matzoh
    muffin – muffin
    croissant – creciente (although more likely just croissant)

    galleta is also cracker and biscuit (and hardtack)

  • Such cuties – and 4 of them boys. I was reading kennel news from your neighbors (Team Tsuga) and it sounds like boy pups are outnumbering girl pups all over Two Rivers – must be something in the water.

    Thanks for introducing us to the future SPK super stars. Looking forward to cheering them on in Iditarod or Quest 2014!

  • sopapilla, gordita, gamela, biscochito . . . from NM always helps – they are adorable as usual. Congrats.

  • Macgallen, can't help you out with the spanish bread, but I know my German Bread like Schwarzbrot, Weissbrot, Bauernbrot, Kummelbrot, Mischbrot, Salzstangen and Broetchen. And that concludes your German lesson for today.
