Introducing "Hubble"

[Nemo]

Finally have a nice pic of our soon-to-be puppy. We're picking him up this weekend. After which, hijinks will ensue.

We decided to stick with the call name "Hubble" and chose the registered name is "Ankhu Across the Universe".
Sire: "Zuri", GCh. DC Jerlin's Our Zuri Pupin MC, LCX, TT, SGRC, ORC, LCM, VB
Dam: "Gracie", Ch. Ankhu Promises in the Dark

This was a very nice cousin x cousin breeding. Gracie's dam, Whitney, and Zuri's dam, Lyric, are siblings. Gracie is also a cousin to my girl, Zoni (Zoni's sire, Pow, is a sibling of Whitney and Lyric). I've seen Gracie for a couple of years and put my name on the reservation list for her first litter back in 2009! Zuri is quite the performance dog so I'm hoping Hubble will have fun in both the show ring and the coursing field.

Thanks to everyone who came up with ideas for names on the other thread!

Oh the chaos of puppy antics, I'm nuts to miss it, but I do!
…don't know who I'm fooling as Oakley shredded three rolls of TP just this week! I'm still going through the puppy phase at 14 months!lol

LOVE the name Hubble! Looks like that pretty little trying package is kin to all of my pups. All my kids are Patton grandchildren. Zest! is of course a Powell daughter, so there's that too! Should do great in the ring and coursing. And then there's agility . . . Tryings are so much fun in agility (mwahahahahaha).

Handsome Boy!!!! And related to my C-Me…. going back to Patton! And Tryings are so much fun in anything... (mwahahahahaha).

Oh he is adorable. Looks like this was the year of the tri's and I missed out. I have always wanted a tri they are so striking. Right now the brats (I mean good basenjis) are playing with a new 'mind' toy. It's a bottle with a rope in it where you can put in kibbles and treats. Then they have to pull on the rope to get the kibbles out. Maybe your new pup would like something like that. Congrats on Hubble!

Darling puppy, love the name!

Very nice boy. Xander and the girls go back to Powell as well. We are all cousins:)

I haven't tried that particular toy but I do like treat-dispensing toys and puzzles a lot. I may have to give it a try.

Thanks! But don't forget Franie! She goes back to Kalema, so she's related too.

Huge congratulations to you and the whole family!!! "Hubble" is a brilliant name! I have always thought Gracie was superb. So, well done to you! We will be looking forward to hearing more in the future and watching this special boy grow up and contribute to our breed.

What a CUTIE PIE! Cannot wait for more pictures. LOL Hubble sounds so sweet and scholarly– out quietly taking in the images of the universe, roflmao. (Suspects meteorite might fit better but one can hope.) Perfect call name.

LOL, very true!!!

Oh! He's just beautiful!! I had a huge GSD 30 some odd years ago named Hubble and he was a great dog. Good name.
