Finally had time to put up some pictures of the dogs. As you can see, we have two beautiful Cairns which although are from the same breed, looks vastly different in color! One male and the other female so you may be wondering -> Hey, why not breed them? Ans: Cause Axle was neutered when he was picked up as a stray by A.D.O.P.T.
Hence, it did cross our mind to look for a 3rd Cairn but no luck so far. Only option is to import another male Cairn but this will take time as we will need to go through lots of research to find a suitable breeder whom will agree to sell his/her pup to someone who resides in a different country. I won't say that we have closed down this option as we are still hoping to breed Cami and introduce more Cairns to this country (another main reason is so that we can have one of her pups). We did consider the possibility of importing from Australia or New Zealand as to avoid quarantine. FYI, there is a list of countries posted by our national veterinary department whereby animals coming in from any of the countries listed do not need to be quarantined :)
Anyhow, still a thought as two dogs are already a handful and at this point, we may not have the time to tend to the needs of a pup. We will leave it to fate.

Starting Out
This is great. I did not think it was this easy to start a blog.
Finally here is a place to dedicate a space to our two pet Cairns which we transported all the way from the States when we moved home two years ago. As we venture into the new yet familiar territory, it was great that we found some dog friends (humans and dogs) who are as crazy with their dogs as we are.
Through this blog, there will be postings on the only Cairns in Malaysia (as far as we are concerned, Cami is the only registered Cairn in MKA while Axle is the 2nd in line although without a cert since he is a rescue dog).
Anyhow, a salute to this beautiful breed, which is a close cousin of West Highland Terriers (Westies). In fact, they are pratically the same except that we can get them in all kinds of colors except white. White is a big no-no for Cairns.
