On Tuesday 14th May, Aus Ch Mzalia Texas Cheerleader (Debbie) produced
3 boys and 2 girls (all red and white) - to Eilsta Undaunted Spirit.
This
is Debbie's first litter and she
has been an excellent mother.
We are very happy with the quality of this litter of pups, most of the them inheriting the qualities we were looking for by line-breeding to Aus Ch Baagna Tiz Wundaful - a dog of beautiful breed type with excellent front and hindquarters. "Wizzy" - as he is known to his friends - is a prepotent stud dog, and has produced some beautiful puppies from limited opportunities at stud.
And perhaps most thrilling of all - all of the pups have inherited their father's delightful temperament. Adam was the happiest, waggiest and most outgoing basenji we have had the pleasure of owning, and it has been a true joy to experience that again through his children.
We selected Caught as the middle name for this litter, as it enabled us to come up with many names which are a play on their mother's name. (And if you were wondering, yes, Debbie was named after that film!)

Ch Mzalia Caught on Camera (Canon)
A cobby, masculine and very handsome youngster, Canon was shown by us at Mzalia Basenjis.
We originally did not plan on running on a male from this litter, but there was so much to like about Canon, we decided to run him on.
An older style basenji, was Canon a slower developer than the boys in the Casino litter, but as he has matured he became a consistent winner at Group level. He also did well at Basenji Specialties, regularly being short-listed in his class.
The first Champion produced by both of his parents, Canon was a Best of Breed and multiple Class in Group winner at All Breeds Championship Show level, and a Multiple Class in Show winner at Open Show level.
Canon was retired from the show ring in October 2004, and he is now the very spoilt companion of Rose on Kangaroo Island.

Caught in a Trap (Sampo)
Exported to Finland
Thyroid: Normal TgAA Negative, Eyes: J1 (Clear)
Sampo's first babies have been born!
Congratulations to
Fin Ch Hanishan Peppi-Peppar and her owner Virpi, on the safe arrival of
1 boy and 3 girls (all red & white)

Another very handsome and masculine boy, Sampo was the one who most reminded me of Debbie's gorgeous brother Mzalia Texas Ranger. It was a difficult decision when deciding between Canon and Sampo, and there really was very little in it.
Now a very leggy and elegant adult, Sampo lives with his Auntie Esprit (Mzalia Lotus Esprit), and is the spoiled and much loved companion of Helena and Petri.
He initially lived in Victoria, but in July 2005 his family returned to their native Finland. This move makes Sampo (and Esprit) the first Mzalias to make their way overseas.
Happy trails our sweet boy - and we hope you enjoy your exciting overseas adventure.

Caught Kissing (Zoe)
Zoe is a very feminine and elegant young lady. She is a bitch of beautiful breed type, with a sensational head, excellent topline and good length of neck. Zoe was also one of the most loving and affectionate basenjis we have ever owned, hence her show name.
A Runner-up in Group, and multiple Class in Group winner, unfortunately Zoe decided that she did not enjoy the show ring at all.
Zoe is now the much loved companion of the Wildy family in South Australia.
Mzalia
Caught in the Act (Monica)
A very fine and pretty girl, Monica was by far the smallest puppy in the litter at birth, but she has a personality that is larger than life.
Whenever there was trouble a-foot, you would always find Monica in the middle of it - hence her show name "Caught in the Act". She gets her call name from Monica Lewinsky.
From limited appearances in the ring, Monica was a Class in Show and Class in Group winner at Open Show level.
Monica has a beautiful head, length of neck and coat and delightful personality. Due to her very small stature, Monica was never going to be a long term show or breeding prospect, and has subsequently been spayed and placed in a wonderful pet home.
Mzalia
Caught Red Handed (Taji)
Taja was a very pretty puppy with a sweet head, excellent coat and nice hindquarters. A nice moving puppy, Taja also has the smallest ears you could ever hope to see in a basenji.
A loving and affectionate boy, he always wanted to be the centre of attention when he was living with us.
Taja is the very spoiled companion of Michelle LeDuff in Victoria.
