May 28, 2015 | Beamer, Olive
We also got some very unique socialization accomplished yesterday. It is pretty common knowledge that Chihuahuas prefer fellow Chihuahuas. When we are at dog shows, being around a plethora of different breeds is the norm. We do like to keep our little dogs away from...
May 27, 2015 | Beamer, KC, Showing Chihuahuas, Training
with tons of new lessons! Jen offered to help with some Junior focused, one-on-one instructions for Alexis and KC of the upcoming TBCC Specialty. She does fabulous with Boomer but she only shows KC once, maybe twice a year so skills for working with more delicate...
May 26, 2015 | Olive, Our Chihuahuas
Olive is so loving life now that she is roaming free in the house and in the backyard. She spends a large part of her afternoons on the couch but when there is backyard play session, we actually have a hard time getting her back inside. She loves it outside and even...
May 25, 2015 | Milly, Training, Ty
This holiday weekend included the crossing off of a major project on my honey-do list. We have had a “dog room” on the project list for several years now, but it is a huge undertaking to enclose a porch per our idea. Well, we officially have two windows...

May 20, 2015 | Olive, Sleeping Habits
So instead of a pile of stuffed animals, we have a pile of toss pillows – Either way, can you spot Olive? She is so loving her freedom during the day and has mastered couch life as well as the play sessions in the backyard. This tiny thing is up to 2 pounds and...
May 19, 2015 | New Puppies, Temperament
Sweetie is such an easy going girl that you can’t help but just adore her. She loves the other dogs, don’t get me wrong, but she is also rather content all on her own. She will usually dig out some dog toy to entertain herself without issue. Then when you...
May 17, 2015 | Dog Shows, Milly, Training, Ty
Getting puppies accustom to the sights, sounds, smells and utter commotion at a dog show is all part of the training required of a show dog. Today was our chance to expose Milly and Ty to all of that and then some, getting them ready for the fall shows, when they will...
