The puppies are 5 weeks old and they are truly coming into their own. Their little personalities are starting to come through and I see we are going to have some pistols in the bunch. I cannot wait to them them blossom even more over the next several weeks and I can...
Aug 9, 2017 | Sawyer the Frenchie
So Sawyer has been with us for four days now and he has made himself at home. He loves hanging with the boys, Tino and Georgie, and has proven to be as stubborn as the breed is known to be. He is also a complete riot and beyond entertaining! He is completely obsessed...

Our last day in Kenner was filled with lessons, excitement and a new addition to the Figgy crew! For the first time, both my entries were in their variety’s Best of Breed competition as Champions! While neither placed or gained points, they BOTH earned Best...

When I finished Georgie at the Tampa Bay Chihuahua Club Specialty it was a true honor. I realized the likelihood of finishing your dog at a specialty is slim, so to have it happen TWICE and this time to have it done from the Bred-By class? Honored doesn’t even...

With an early morning ring time for Chihuahuas but several other breeds being shown by Dolly and other friends, I was at the show site all day! It started with both my boys showing fabulously – I couldn’t have been prouder! With Georgie having been out of...
Aug 2, 2017 | George, Tino, Travels & Trips
Dolly and I started our journey to Kenner, Louisiana very early this morning, allowing us to take our time and not be rushed. We don’t show until tomorrow and with over 9 hours to drive, a leisurely journey was the best choice! Between potty and gas breaks, we...
