disappointing news...

Today we took Missy in for an ultrasound. We wanted to verify what we had already been thinking and unfortunately we were right...no puppies for Missy this time around. What a pain! Meanwhile every other girl seems to be getting their baby belly.

Mona and Mowgley had a nice date this morning, so we are now expecting puppies from them at christmas time!

CERF clinic a big success!!

I know that I have been MIA recently. Thank-you for the flood of emails and calls that I have gotten about not posting here! Today was our annual CERF day at my mom's house. What a busy day. The vet was originally scheduled to arrive at 9am, but thankfully she called and moved it to 10 am. That gave a few extra people the change to get there. We had my dogs, my moms, and two other breeders dogs there. All in all, we had 50 doggies eye's tested! Everyone was clear! Such a relief.

Our guardian families all had a chance to meet in the driveway! I am so glad that we had most of our families there because it is great to see all of the dogs again.

I received my sculpture order from Rudkin Studio (see post below for link to her store). They are just beautiful! I love the frog things that I ordered.

Oh yes... and Mona came into heat! She is going to breed with Mowgley hopefully tomorrow or monday. He is ready to roll this time around, that is for sure!

owner updates!

I just wanted to share this wonderful store that I shop at. The lady makes wonderful sculptures of doodles and other animals. Her products are amazing, great quality. She is awesome to work with. I have had a custom piece done by her, and now just ordered a bunch of other sculptures too! If you do decide to order, mention IDOG fundraiser and 30% of the proceeds from the sale will go to a doodle rescue organization! http://www.etsy.com/shop/RudkinStudio

Fur and Feather recap!!

Yesterday was our Fur and Feather day! It was the best fall weather we have had in years there. I'm not kidding. It was still really cold, but at least there was no rain, snow, hail, massive winds! I helped my dad sell some goats, rabbits, chickens, and pigeons. It was an awesome time. We didn't bring any of our dogs with us this time. Panda came with us in the spring, but I figured that I would have more work to do this year and I was right.

We were both so tired from the fur and feather (a big warning if you ever decide to go...you will be cold for the whole morning, and that makes you tired for the rest of the day!). When we came home we let the dogs outside and played with them. They all came in and watched some TV with us too. After that, it was homework time for me!

I promise...I will add some pictures to my next posting! It's been a while!
