LOL, the fifth one looks like little Mocha is plotting some mischief!

Just wait till they gain another 50 pounds, and still do the same rough and tumble stuff. I hope your house is hurricane proof!


psst....is it just my broswer, or are all 7 pup pics in one long row, causing the page to be double wide? No biggie in the long run, except I'm making myself dizzy scrolling from side to side!

Yep, Saxy, I am smirking big time on the inside.dw
Who, that's exactly what I thought when I saw that pic. Looks like Mocha will be the ringleader. Saxy, do you think your parents are ready for what's in store?

Kstme, I agree, Charlie fits in very well. I, the I don't do roll outs queen, spend this afternoon baking doggie treats. Sucker!!!!

Yep, Sea, they are joint at the hip. Dh had to run a few errands without Charlie. My, that dog pouts when he is left behind. Ds tried to console and entertain him, but he would have none of it. Just hung around, checking the driveway from the back of the couch, sniffing through the house to see if he can find Dad somewhere.
At least today he didn't grab slippers or socks. So far he hasn't taken revenge by chewing either up, just bringing them downstairs and dropping them in front of dh's bathroom.LOL

Charlie is turning out to be the best equipped pooch in the neighbourhood. Today "we" acquired a seatbelt for the car. The other day it was a special harness to protect the neck from leash jerks. Squeeky toy #4 is still squeeking. The little stinker hasn't found a way in - yet!

thanks everyone! yes, my baby is pretty special. lol! lum, she weighed 3.1 lbs at her last vet appointment when she had her last set of shots. that was at the end of may. she may weigh about 4lbs now...but i don't think even that much. when i try to weigh her with me on the scale, it doesn't work. lol. she's such a runt! it's about time to have her spayed (yuck!) so we'll find out then i guess.

supergranny, that blanket is a fleece tweety bird blanket (he's my favorite cartoon character besides oscar the grouch...lol, even have a tweety tattoo! :-)) i had it on the couch over me one night, and she just LOVES it. now it's HER blanket, and it's in a laundry basket where she naps. she loves it. spoiled much? nah! lol...thanks again for the compliments. she's a pretty sweet girl, too.

She's growing up quite nicely Jbeany!!

Saxy, those two are going to really help fill your time when your hubby is away, and give you lots of great pictures to send his way.

Lum.. glad your little immigrant is working out so well..

I am getting a dog in a couple of weeks. I lost my dog of 15 years a couple of years ago and up until now I just wasn't interested in getting another.

My sister in law is a registered "dog rescue person." She frequently ends up with lost and stay dogs that she tries to finds homes for. I went out to see them a few weeks ago and just fell in love with one of her dogs. I was there from about six in the evening until midnight and the dog spent most of that time curled up in my lap. He has the sweetest disposition and is not the least bit agressive, although he will bark at strangers.

She estimates he is about 8 or 9 months old. She does not think he will get much bigger because he has "grown into his feet." I can pick him up with one hand and hold him so he is a nice size.

My other dog, Cody, was an American Eskimo which is a bred down version of the Symoyad. This one is almost a copy of Cody, except where Cody was snow white, this one is the color of a fox.

He has the little pointy "cat ears," the ruff around his neck, and the curled over the back fluffy tail. My sister in law thinks he has some pom in him. He is a beautiful dog. And like Cody, he does not have the "doggy" smell.

Does this sound like any kind of breed that you are familiar with?

I am going out of town for a week, so I am going to wait until I come back to pick him up because I do not want to have him for a week and then have to leave him. He has been staying outside so I am not sure of how well he has been housebroken. She says he seemed to be, but she was not able to keep him indoors so she is not sure just how well and he may have lost some of the training.

He also needs to be "fixed." Going to wait a few weeks for that also. Don't want his first experience with me to be a painful one.

I am really looking forward to having him. I have missed having a dog. I live alone and he is going to be so much company. I have decided to call him Casey, just because I like the name.

Saxy, I just went back and read the last page and saw your puppies. That third picture down on the left with the puppy cocking his head to one side is just priceless. He looks so smart. I love him!

Thanks, Saxy, I am really looking forward to it. It has been so long since I dwelt with puppies, I am a little anxious. However, Casey is almost out of the puppy stage. I have had some serious knee problems in the last year and I was physically not able to care for a dog. However, after a serious weight loss, water arobics, and a weight lifting program I am in much better shape and think I am ready at least for a small dog.

Since Casey has no "possessions" of his own, I am going to enjoy doing some shopping for him. I am going to have to rein myself in or I might really go overboard. I have vowed I am going to "sound him out" before buying much in the way of bedding and toys. What do you think?

I would say at least have a couple toys ready for the pup when he gets there. I used an old blanket for their bed before I bought one. If you go a little further back in the archives, there was a toy discussion about what toys are the best and what not.. So if you have time, take a look a little farther back. (You'll also run into pictures of the pups at younger ages.. I can't believe, they're 2 months old today!)

I've never posted a pictue before so I hope this works. If is does, here's a pictures of by baby Chipper. We decided to keep him out of the last litter his mom Peaches had. I'm sooo glad we did because his dad passed away last year and he looks just like him.

Sashakaye..yorkies are so funny. I have to tell you about one I met named Shakespeare. He always carried a ball in his mouth, until he had to pee, then he would lay down his ball so he could lift his leg. So funny!
Allietex I promise you will not regret getting another dog. We were so devastated when we lost our Aidale Jackson to heart disease, we said we never wanted another dog...almost two years went by before we got our frenchie and our life was full again and our hearts healed.

Seamonkey, Casey does look a little like a Pomeranian except he does not have the little short legs and his little face is longer, more of a classic dog face, kind of like a collie. He is definitely in the Spitz family. I am going to go to a dog site and see if I can find something that looks more like him.

I think he is probably a mix of some kind, but I hope the vet can tell me when I take him in the first time. I just know whatever he is, he is a beautiful dog. I can't wait to get him.

Almost makes me want to cancel my trip to New Orleans, but I am going to watch my 13 year old grandson thow javelin in AAU, so I can't miss that.

The national meet is next week in NO. He has been throwing less than 2 months and already has the best throw for his age group in the nation. The first thing I am going to do when I get back is go pick up Casey.

Supergranny, I think I am finally ready. This dog just stole my heart within a few minutes. My sister in law laughed at me and said she knew the minute she saw him that he was the dog for me. She set me up by inviting me out to the farm and it worked.

Hi guys,

My miniature weiner dog is basically 9.9 years old. Turns 10 on August 15th. For about the last week he has had off and on bouts of scream enducing pain. My dad thinks it's arthritis. I'm going to have my mom make an appointment with the vet. He has survived a month of paralysis from a ruptured disk a few years ago. I don't think that's the problem this time but I don't know.

I've had him almost half my life.

I have this sinking feeling that He may not make 10, let alone 11.

If you guys can give me some hope, please do.

If not just try to cheer me up.

I am so sorry to hear about your baby. Our frenchie had a herniated disc two years ago and we had it operated on. 6 months of carrying her up and down stairs but she is as ornery as ever now. If you decide on an operation they are successful..just so horribly expensive(we were in California then). We ate beans for months! I wish you were close to me now...we have an holistic vet here in Ocean Shores and he is fantastic. If you can find one any where near you I would take your pup..they are regular vets but go the extra mile and do alternative medicine. For example accupuncture has worked in alot of cases. Water therapy is another. They will probably put him on prednisone for the pain but don't be ascared of it...if you wean them off it slowly it doesn't cause the liver damage. You be a real aggressive dad and find out all the alternatives...don't give up hope!

We've given him part of a doggy sedative to make him sleep. Man's best friend is right. I won't give up on him. I spent a month telling everyone "Just wait. He'll make it." a few years ago when he was paralyzed. And against the predictions of the vet, he walked again.
