Am/Can Ch Spring Fever de Sud x Am/Can Ch Northwind's
Stormin' Norma CD, LCM, CGC, CAV
These photos were taken when two weeks old. The puppies were VERY
uncooperative, so the photos are merely meant to show color and
markings. For a pedigree, click here.
If you're wondering about the names, I always give them a temporary
name until their new owner decides their permanent name. It also
helps me and potential owners talk about the puppies - I just get
mixed up calling them male one and two... Since the dam is Stormin'
Norma, and we are Northwind, all the puppies are named for various
winds found worldwide. Six girls, two boys. Ladies are shown first.
|
"Bali" - A strong east wind at the eastern end
of Java.
She has asymmetrical face markings - dark brindle on the
non show side and white on the show side. She is fawn brindle
with tons of white - looks like she's wearing pants. |

"Chinook" - A type of foehn wind. Refers to the
warm downslope wind in the Rocky Mountains that may occur
after an intense cold spell when the temp could rise by 20
to 40 degrees in a matter of minutes. Also known as the Snow
Eater.
She has asymmetrical face markings with the dark brindle
being on the show side. The non-show side is completely white
except for some color on the ear. She is wearing brindle pants
on the show side. |

"Maria" - A fictional wind popularized in "Paint
Your Wagon" and by the Kingston Trio, whose name may
have originated with the 1941 book "Storm" by George
Stewart.
This is the typical marking that I get - white blaze on the
face, full white neck and brindle covering most of the body.
Four white feet, white chest and white tip of the tail. She
looks very much like her mother. |

"Sumatra" - A squall with violent thunder, lighting,
and rain, which blows at night in the Malacca Straits, especially
during the southwest monsoon. It is intensified by strong
mountain breezes.
Other than the single spot on the top of her head and color
on the right ear, she is white back to the shoulders. The
rest of the body is dark fawn brindle, four white feet, white
tip to the tail and white chest. The little spot of white
on the hip will most likely disappear over time. |

 |
"Williwaw" - A sudden blast of wind descending
from a mountainous coast to the sea, in the Strait of Magellan
or the Aleutian Islands.
She has asymmetrical face markings - brindle on the show
side. She has several patches of fawn brindle color on the
body and color that starts to go down her tail, but there
is a horizontal white line across it. Color again on the rear
show side leg. |

"Zephyr" - The ancient Greek name for the west
wind, which generally is light and beneficial. A soft, gentle
breeze.
She has a blaze on her face and more brindle that the others,
limited to the body area. Legs and feet are white. |

"Boreas" A ancient greek name for north winds
blowing from the Hungarian basin into the Adriatic Sea.
He has asymmetrical face markings with white on the show
side. Color on the show side ear and patches of fawn brindle
on the body. He has a funny spot right at the top of the tail
and he looks like he's partially wearing pants. |

"Pampero" - A west or southwest wind in Southern
Argentina. This wind (often violently) picks up during the
passage of a cold front of an active low passing by.
He has color over one eye and just touching the other. A
funny spot center of the top of his head and then all white
except for wearing fawn brindle pants. |
