This may be Pixie’s new song, “Something tells me I’m into something good.”

Pixie had her ring debut yesterday and today. She has the reputation of being fearless. She is just over 6 months old and none of the new sights and sounds fazed her a bit. Her owner, Doug, also had his ring debut today. He got to squire this lively girl around the ring.

Doug and Pixie make a great team. Look at those ribbons!

Donald x Violet’s puppies are SIX months old! What a fun and wonderful group of puppies they are….

Pixie, the pink girl, gets to spend her birthday at the beach! She had fun running in the ocean with her roommates Kevlar and Shae.
Bailey, the green boy, has been taking Zoom classes with his owners. He likes to hike, play in the snow and chew the legs of the kitchen chairs.
Blue, who was also marked with the color blue, leads an active life with his family. He has a friend, Teddie. I hear they get good and dirty on their playdates.
Dash, formerly gray boy, has a new car seat. I’m sure he enjoys being able to look out as he travels. He lives with his half brother, Chewie.
Bridget, formerly orange girl, is a delight. She loves to play with her toys. Squeaky toys are her favorite. She’s good at entertaining herself. She knows the command “Come” and (usually) complies.

Two dogs – One BONE
Violet is in possession but it won’t be long before her mother, Flo-Jo, takes ownership.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 5 months since Violet had her litter of puppies. All the pups are doing well. Gray boy is now called Dash. He gets to play with his half brother Chewie. Green boy is the delight of his new owners. Blue enjoys walks with his family. Pixie gets to go to beginning agility classes and she gets to play with lots of other puppies. Bridget loves to hang out with the older dogs. She’s an easy, agreeable puppy.

Blue is giving everyone an enthusiastic hello.

I love the expression on Blue’s face – it tells the story.

Sometimes I’ll place a retired show dog in a new home. It has to be just the right home where he’ll get lots of love and attention.

Chandler’s last day with me.
Chandler and Ilene. She’s been working hard to make Chandler’s transition as easy as possible. He’ll enjoy being an only dog.

Piper is 10 years old. Every show dog I have bred for the last 10 years has Piper in their pedigree. She was (and is) an excellent mother and produced some fabulous Bichons. She is retired and living the high life on the beach. And she is happy to have her last daughter, Tessa (aka Regan aka Tiny Dancer) living with her.

Piper and Tessa. Aren’t they beautiful?!
The girls are always together. I love this picture of them eating in their matching sweaters.
