He’s the biggest of the litter.  He’s very content and also adventurous.  I think he’s very handsome!

There have been so many changes this week.  Pups are now walking around…not always getting where they plan, but making progress.  They are responding to noises.  They have moved to a larger “condo” so they can exercise and face some baby challenges such as climbing over a small obstacle.  It’s a challenge to get a good picture and none of my pictures do them justice.

The puppies have all passed the 1 pound mark in weight.  They are gaining

every day.

Their eyes are opening.  They are even managing to get their legs under them, trying to walk.

PuyallupBISS2014We always enjoy our local specialty show.  It’s a chance to meet with our friends and enjoy our dogs together.  After the show and raffle drawing, there’s a time of good fellowship and food. 

This year in the puppy sweepstakes, Baron was awarded Best of Opposite Sex.  All the puppies got a nice toy, some beautiful rosettes and the winners received an original Bichon sculpture, created by Robyn Orvos. 

Following the sweepstakes is our specialty show, where Bichons of all ages compete.  We were honored this year to be recognized among some very lovely Bichons Frise.

Simon was awarded Best of Breed

Benny was Best of Winners, for a major win

Baron was Best Puppy in Breed

We had pictures taken of these three boys, so check back.  We’ll post them when we receive them.
