Jan 15, 2016 | Boomer the Pug, Dog Shows, Junior Showmanship
It was a very long day with us starting here at the Brooksville show grounds at 7:00 am and then having a 2:45 pm ring time for Juniors but man was it worth it! Alexis and Boomer were in total synch this afternoon and it was beautiful to watch. Clearly the judge...
Jan 15, 2016 | Dog Shows, George, Showing Chihuahuas
After Georgie’s harrowing experience only four days ago, I really want too sure what would transpire today. We entered him in the show for both weekends but getting him to be confident enough to walk on a lead or stand on a table was never a for sure. He was...
Jan 15, 2016 | Boomer the Pug, Dog Shows
We kicked off our first weekend in Brooksville very, very early and on the damp side. It was raining the majority of the drive over and when we arrived at 7:00 am I wasn’t about to lug all of our gear through the mud so off to the ring we walked. We literally...
Jan 14, 2016 | Olive, Sleeping Habits
We are wrapping up our evening after packing up the car for an early take-off tomorrow and I couldn’t help but take note of Olive cuddling up next to me on the couch. She stretched herself out and made herself at home, periodically peeking back at me perhaps...
Jan 13, 2016 | Chihuahua Habits, Dewey, Ginny
With less running in the yard now the dogs have a lot of time on the deck for their frolicking and fresh air. Ginny is not a real “active” girl – she is more of a waddler. When she is not waddling around she is napping. Today I found her up on the...
Jan 12, 2016 | Dog Safety, George, Medical
A full 24 hour after the hawkcident and Georgie is doing fabulous health wise. The puncture is healing very nicely and the only swelling left is at the bridge of his stop. He is back to full-energy playing with his half brother Toddy and wanting to spend the day as...

YES! You read that right. What I am about to tell you is hands-down one of the most amazing stories ever and it’s a true miracle that it all went down like it did. Alexis was out on the steps off of our back deck eating some leftover pizza for breakfast. If you...
Jan 9, 2016 | Chihuahua Habits, Milly, Tips
Tipsy happened to find a scrap of fabric that came loose from a fabric woven rug we have by our back door. It actually fell from the dryer as I was changing loads and she tried to secretly sneak off with it but she was too adorable not to watch. She claimed it as her...
Jan 7, 2016 | Barbie, Breeding Chihuahuas, KC
Initially, we planned on breeding for a Spring litter but we have opted to take a break and enjoy our Winter, whelp free. Barbie and KC were not bred and we will be waiting for Milly’s next season to hopefully have a Spring breeding instead. And now that they...
Jan 4, 2016 | Christmas, Milly
The roped Christmas light dog toy from Target was back this year! I actually bought it around Thanksgiving because I didn’t want to have to go another year without one in the house. And it was the first gift opened this year – I don’t know who was...
