Happy THIRD BIRTHDAY to Poppy and Reggie’s first babies. FAMOUS REDHEADS!! Raggedy Ann/Ann, Pebbles/Rosie, Jessica/Sadie, Daphne/Lucille, Wilma/Stella, Ronald/Lief and Ariel!!! Poppy sure loved her babies, she’d smile when people would come to visit. She was proud of them!! She and her daughter Pebbles/Rosie are having great time together. She is queen and loves her new pack. As hard as it was to part with her, she now has what she needed to be really happy, loyal subjects (including PAT!! haha).

How I miss this face and that adoring look! Lacey is SO MUCH like her wonderful mother Francis! Pictures make me happy/sad. I love seeing the babies so much like their parents but I miss them 😥 Got my mowing done for our weekend camping event. Dottie is in heat, and Grace hurt her leg so they will be staying home. THEY WILL NOT LIKE IT!!

HARLEE’S here!! And the girls are so happy!! They miss her, she gets a huge welcome! We are looking forward to sleeping at the park Saturday, so much fun to cook over a campfire!

Bobbie got a black poodle mailbox to add to her already FABULOUS poodle yard!! I love the gate!! Hope I can find one! I did find the door knocker at finegardenproducts.com LOVE IT!! Her mailbox really stands out! My white one goes up at the park tomorrow NOW people will be able to find our driveway!! Lovin this weather was 55 this morning!!

Rene loves to go with dad in the Ranger. She sits like she’s queen of the hill. What a beauty she is! So elegant and stoic SO different from her litter mate Rosalie!! It’s been such fun having the sisters, nothing is more enjoyable than seeing them together! I’ve been busy doing mail boxes and planters. It’s been humid so drying time is taking a little longer. I like doing them 😀 I’m going to change mine with the holidays!

This is just the BEST boy!! Lexie and Izzie’s litter mate George. He always a big smile in greeting and when he’s really happy to see me he pulls big mouthfuls of grass out roots and all. It is SO FUNNY! Dottie, Rene and Grace got baths and haircuts today. FINALLY Dottie has started heat so next week we’ll get Wally and hopefully have babies in two months!! I’M SO HAPPY!!! It’s been SO LONG since we’ve had babies! SOOOO EXCITING!! I CANT WAIT!!!

I love seeing Elliot! He is so darn cute! I’m so glad we have two of his babies Dottie and Rene! He has the cutest personality and he sure loves his family! Leigh wanted an ELLIOT mailbox so I made her one!! I looked at the thousand pictures I have at him so his spots match haha!! Turned out so cute, cant wait to see it UP!!

Another fun sleepover. The park is so peaceful we just love it there! The dogs have SO much fun. I started eight of my poodle sculptures. I wasn’t going to do anymore they are so time consuming but actually while we’re at the park I’m not doing anything but watching our old movies so what the heck 😀 Keeps me busy.

Those Dottie pups are just so sweet. Like her they need to cuddle. She is just SO loving like her dad Elliot! and grandma Jazz. Got her smarts too! I so enjoy my many generations of poodles. I see all my beloved pets rolled into one. I often wonder why so FEW “breeders” (not me were enthuiasts, maybe that’s the difference)don’t build on their dogs, you miss SO much not knowing the family. Not just health but personality. My FAVORITE thing is people come back and get a pup related to the beloved poodle they had 20 years ago. We actually had a pup go to a family that had one of our first puppies. The mom was a little girl when her family got a puppy from our first litter. She was SO HAPPY to get a baby related to her childhood pet! THAT makes US happy too!

Another beautiful Patti Sue and Ruben baby! Miranda from the “Sex in the city” litter! Wow what a stunning face! I love seeing our beautiful babies! I’ve been busy on my latest project! POODLE PLANTERS! They are very fun (but I’d rather have puppies). I’ve really never seen any like them 😀 I’m selling them $60 + 15 shipping and an unfinished version for $45 + $15 shipping.
