At The End of the Day

 

We had a big day with visitors and playtime in the house. Everyone is tuckered out and ready for sleep time!

Jackpot/Eli Update

 

Update from John…

Jackpot! is good. He is eating well (3 meals per day), his poo is good, and he enjoys playtime and naps. He is using the u-go-dog, but has had a few accidents. He likes chewing on human fingers, zipper pulls, and shoe laces.

He seems to poo most after bedtime and gets his human up to clean up and praise him after each event. Here is one image of him resting in the morning after getting his human up four times during the night (note the devil eyes), and another image of him after playtime.

Jackpot! had a good first visit to the vet yesterday. He charmed the staff, which is important for the long run…Jackpot! is happy and healthy and is doing a pretty good job with the u-go-dog. Here he is dozing this morning between wake up and breakfast. Regards, John

Chelsea & Sebastian’s Shichon Puppies

These puppies are 4 weeks old and will be ready for their new homes in 4 more weeks.  They are all very small, and will probably mature to 10-14 lbs as adults.  We have a couple deposits for this litter and will know soon which puppies are still available for adoption.

Born March 5, 2012

Grandparent’s Weekend

I haven’t been blogging personal things lately. It has been all I could do to stay on top of new puppy photos and announcements, so the personal stuff gets put on the back burner.

But we had a nice family gathering a couple weekends ago and all the grandparents flew to Spokane to attend Grandparent’s Weekend at UCA, the Academy that Darien attends.

The weekend was filled with music from the choir, choraliers, band, and the orchestra. The gymnastic team also performed. I’m excited that all of my kids will be attending next school year, and we will be living just a few miles from the school!

It was nice for everyone to be together and to get a mini vacation away from the chores of life.

Darien always looks sharp in his tux. He now towers over both grandmas, affectionately known as “Mema” and “Mom”.
