While we are on this whole grain-free kick, I couldn’t help but be inspired to give these Merrick Mini Brush Bones a try. Our crew loves the Greenies and anything to help keep those teeters pearly white is a plus in my book. I can proudly announce that they were...
Sep 25, 2014 | New Puppies, Tips
Stoli and Tipsy are very close and can generally be found side-by-side any time throughout the day. Finding them cuddled up in a dog bed was no surprise but their adorableness seemed to really catch my attention. You see, they are smack dab in the middle of their...
Sep 22, 2014 | Beamer, Boomer the Pug
So Marg is a very popular girl in our house right now. She is most definitely not in season but between the two best friends Boomer and Beamer, they have staked their claim and she doesn’t seem to be too bother by all of the sudden attention. All in all, she...
Sep 21, 2014 | Boomer the Pug, Dog Shows, Owner-Handler
Another amazing day at the dog show. In addition to a repeat from yesterday with Boomer taking breed, going to the Groups ring and Owner-Handler (where they got 3rd place), there was an extra special treat added to the mix.! Rayna brought her latest puppy, Hans Solo,...

Back to Deland we came, today at 7:00 am for our 8:00 am ring time. With the early right time, we had hoped that the others in her class came. By the time we got to the Novice Senior class, Alexis was as calm as ever. She entered the ring with the confidence of a...

The AKC Owner-Handler series has become quite popular so when doing the entires for this weekend’s shows and the option to enter the dynamic-duo, I checked box. When Boomer got BOB, they were also awarded Owner-Handler for the breed. After Groups, we headed to...
Sep 20, 2014 | Boomer the Pug, Dog Shows
The rings at an all-breed show are much larger, and the wait for seven groups to get to Best in Show is a lot longer and the Limited Breed show from last weekend. It wasn’t short on excitant though. Hanging with the Chihuahuas again was the way to go but we have...
Sep 20, 2014 | Boomer the Pug, Dog Shows, Junior Showmanship
Being only one win away from moving up to the Open class, it was exciting to have Rayna ring-side to watch the possible win this afternoon. We all watched with bated breath as she knocked it out of the park – that was until the final walk around the ring and her...

After the excitement of last weekend, our second show weekend with includes the honor of showing with Rayna, Boomer’s breeder. She came into town to participate in the West Volusia shows and the chance for her to watch Alexis and Boomer “do their...
Sep 19, 2014 | Barbie, Sleeping Habits, Tips
It’s moments like this that make me love Chihuahuas. It’s moments like this that make me giggle and grab my camera! Tipsy cuddled up with her mom in the infamous sunspot to take a nap with her. It was when she rearranged herself and then used Barbie as...
