The name Topáz is speaking. According to the tests, the young female dog will have puppies, so she carries a great treasure. We talked about this with her owner, József Elekes, who is experiencing an exciting time with his dog.
Topáz was born in the breeding program of our foundation, in the “T” litter. József Elekes became her volunteer puppy raiser, and the first year passed in complete harmony, after which our dogs were sent to their trainers and started their way to be guide dogs. Several of her siblings became guide dogs, but Topáz’s life turned out differently because we saw that she was suitable to become a mother dog. We offered József that if he accepts he can stay with her.
A new career begins
József happily accepted and was glad that his raised dog was given such an important role. Then time passed, and Topáz, who is now three and a half years old, started meeting our breeder male dog, Monsoon.
“Last time they dated in Miskolc, in a familiar place and among people, as both dogs belong to the Baráthegyi team. I saw that they were very much in love with each other. Topáz was excited and enthusiastic, and this was the first time when I saw her “wriggling” her tail. It seems that everything was favorable for the ultrasound because the pulsation of the heartbeat could be seen on the ultrasound recording. As much as I would like to tell you, we don’t yet know how many puppies there will be” – said József.
The vet found everything was in order at the check-up this week. “I’m quite nervous, I haven’t had a dog giving birth yet. She moves more tiredly, now she only moves when I’ve taken the key off and I’m almost out of the apartment. It’s okay, it’s easier to take care of her that way” – József said.
Topáz and József live such a life
Topáz lives in Szolnok, the banks of the Tisza are a safe, dreamy place for dogs, but they go out every week to József’s workplace in Pest. “The colleagues are already waiting for her, she has an access control card, and every colleague has a drinking place for her, but she has not received her salary as yet” – said the owner.
According to József, Topáz is a dream dog: “She is a kind, patient, very delicate creature. I would be happy if she had puppies and passed on the genes. She studies well and knows Hungarian quite well. I talk to her very often, and she understands and even gives relevant answers. When I talk to my brother on the phone, she’s excited that we’re going because she considers her little boy his little brother. The one-and-a-half-year-old boy is a typical troll, he tries everything, teases, and Topáz allows everything.”
We asked what habits they have in common. At night, Topáz falls asleep so that her owner sits down in front of the sofa, the dog lies on his leg, and in 10 minutes she falls asleep. Then József also goes to sleep, Topáz then goes over to him in the morning, doesn’t wake him up, and quietly lies down on the carpet next to his bed. The day ends and begins together.
