These Three!!!
Milly has finally gone into season (which means that KC will be following suit very soon) so she is in the living room with Stella and Style, Those three have been inseparable all day! I Mean INSEPARABLE! They are playing non-stop and loving the fact that I am working...
Look What I Found
While perusing the aisles at Home Goods today I fell upon this beauty and had to buy it. Not just because of the fact that there is a Chihuahua on it but it matches the colors of my house perfectly! With a $19.99 price point I wasn't about to wait - So I tell you run,...
Rather Instant
Ms. Style pretty much made herself at home almost instantly. She has found the living room to be her preferred space to take over and likes to spend her time in the sun with Milly, Stella or Breezy. They are pretty inseparable. She adores me - anyone else, not so...
Thanks Breezy!
Breezy's anxiety has been through the ROOF lately and I don't know what s causing it! We switched to feeding the dogs once a day - which has made a huge difference, for the good - but if you don't feed her before 1 pm her anxiety takes over! Like she will find...
What Did I Tell Ya?
Amazing Trophy Basket right? This is what Tino and I won for being the Best Bred-By Exhibitor at the Specialty on Sunday. I was seriously blown away! The Atlanta club trulls went above and beyond putting this together - So many great little trinkets and treasures in...
Came Home With Company
In addition to one of the most amazing specialty trophy baskets ever, I came home with both Stella as well as another female named Style. She will be staying here for a bit and clearly the two are the best of friends back at Darius'. For Stella, it was as if she never...
Chicken…and then some!
So today we had the Chihuahua Club of Atlanta Specialty and I was honored to be able to show my little guy! After two days on the road in Georgia, day three he finally relaxed and showed the world his true him - His terrier like qualities and "look at me, I want to...
No Chicken Dinner
So today was just not our day at the dog show. It's not that any of the dogs did poorly they just didn't wow the judges! Plus there was a ring conflict and I had to show Stella - she balked a bit at the down and back again - it must totally be me!!! We were in and our...
First Day in Perry
I have been waiting years to attend the Perry, Georgia dog shows. Having someone to share the long drive with was always the biggest issues. The second being, having a dog I felt was worthy enough to make the trip to show. Now that I have teamed up with Darius, the...
Spring ICE
The ICE dog shows are back in Florida so I have sent the weekend in Lakeland shooting the win photos as well as several thousand candid ringside shots. I so love these shows and if I wasn't the event photographer, I would totally participate. They are just so...
Such A Ladies Man
Tino has received a lot of socialization over the last several months. Between attending multiple dog shows and being passed around to strangers, he has become a lot more confidence in this big wide world. Unlike Georgie who takes his time to get to know strangers,...
Oops is Going Home!
It has been a long time coming so I cannot tell you how excited I am that today has finally come. Oops was only days old when Jill said I WANT HIM!!! Being her boy's nephew I could see why she would love to have him in their family. And of course, he is the sweetest...
Our Tinies
If you have been breeding and showing dogs for as long as I have, I can tell you, there is a special, tiny Chihuahua in your home. We have two - Dewey and Olive. For me, taking responsibility for bringing something that tiny into this world is the only way to go!...
Our Final Drive to Lady Lake
Such a bittersweet day. My dear friend and most favorite veterinarian in the whole wide world Dr. Mario is leaving his practice and today was my last drive out to his office. I've made this drive a gazillion times over the last eight years. I could do it with my eyes...
Not A Lesson I Was Hoping For
Millie has a very bad habit I've chewing up anything paper. Magazines, Random pieces of mail, toilet paper and of course the rolls it comes on. Ever since she was a puppy, she has pulled and drug an entire roll of toilet paper all over the living room when ever she's...
Poor Cosmo
We had a last minutes St Patty's Day gathering here at the house and I suppose we got a tad loud - OK, we were playing poker and it got rambunctious - and Mr. Cosmo, who pees himself when it merely rains, suddenly was nowhere to be found. During my search for the...
Stella’s First 2 Points!
YES! You read the correctly! Our sweet Stella has earned her first two points towards her Champion title! I AM SO EXCITED!!! And forever grateful to Darius for having the faith in us and of course the talent to showcase all of the amazing things this girl has to...
Hands Down, My Most Exciting Day EVER!
OMG Today was absolutely AMAZING! If it takes finding courage to travel alone to achieve such amazing things, I will travel every weekend! WOWZERS! Ok, I think I best fill you in, aye?... It started basically right after I walked into the ring for the Bred-By Dog...
Major First For Me
Today was filled with so many first for me I've lost count. I suppose we should start with the fact that this is the first time I have ever traveled to a dog show without my daughter. When I say travel I mean more than an hour and a half or two hours. I drove all the...
Just Look At Him!
Do you think that Ooops is comfortable here? I swear, our house has so much activity that to find anything sleep this soundly is amazing. Sleeping so vulnerably too? He is one confident little dude - and clearly quite content too! [gallery link="file"...
