Hoshi was born in our home the 21th of October 2017 with her 2 brothers. Her parents are our Nyota and Memus Professor Higgins (Hugo). Hoshi is a delightful little girl, clever and sweet, and she loves to cuddle and kiss. She plays mostly with Keyla and T'Pau. Her favourite hobby is gardening, she loves to dig up plants I've just put in the ground, a little rascal she is. She's a bit tense with other (especially bigger) dogs in the park, but she's growing more sure of herself every day. We have stopped weighting her ears, so they're merrily standing up too much, but she got her show qualifications so we are allowed to breed from her. We hope to expect her first litter in the spring of 2021.

Hoshi Workshop Balans en Coördinatie Hoshi Workshop Balans en Coördinatie When Hoshi was 10 months old we had a great workshop Balance & Coordination. It took me a while to convince her to walk through the crates, but after that she did everything without hesitation. We were very proud of her ! We thank Herman van den Belt very much for the nice pictures ! Hoshi Workshop Balans en Coördinatie Hoshi Workshop Balans en Coördinatie

Hoshi in Amsterdam 6 months old When Hoshi was 6 months old, we took her to the centre of Amsterdam. She rode on the tram and we took the ferry for about 15 minutes to the north of Amsterdam. We watched the pigeons on the Dam square and of course we sat down to drink something outside a restaurant to watch passers by. The picture on the left we have almost exactly the same of her mother Nyota. It was an exciting day for the little girl and she was petered out afterwards. Hoshi in Amsterdam 6 months old

When she was 14 weeks old, we took Hoshi to the zoo. Of course she learned a lot of new smells again, but we also took the opportunity to socialize her with small children, something we noticeably haven't done enough with her mother and grandmother.
