Oct 23, 2014 | About Chihuahuas, Figgy Chihuahuas, Training
There has been SO much going on around here lately so I do not have any idea where to begin but this photo actually captures a lot for a quick update! It was time for a technical upgrade and I got a new iMac, keeping me at my desk for substantially longer than the...
Oct 19, 2014 | Boomer the Pug, Grooming, Must Have Supplies, Supplies and Finds
I am honestly not sure HOW we have survived this long without one of these in our bag of tools but the suggestion of using a Furminator on the Pugs was jumped upon and let me tell you – IT’S A MIRACLE TOOL!!! We used it on Boomer and Marg this afternoon...

Oct 9, 2014 | Beamer, Boomer the Pug
Tell me this bunch doesn’t look like they just got caught!?!? Marg has fit in superbly with our house of Chis and clearly likes the activity level of her new little buddies. Since Beamer befriended Boomer, he now splits his time with this new Pug-a-licious lady...
Oct 7, 2014 | Beamer, Temperament
That’s how I would describe Beamer. He is hands-down, the sweetest little Chihuahua you will ever meet. Greeting you with a wagging tail and gentle kisses, he knows no stranger an loves all. So for of all of the dog toys in this house for him to pull out, I...

Tipsy took it upon herself to make her way into the puppy pen and cuddle up in our new doggy bed for an afternoon siesta. Now that I look at her in the bed, I suppose it is more fitting for a small pup than for both of them. It is kinda small – teehee. Perfect...
