Wally is just the best boy, a big love bug with his main concern being who’s going to pet me next. His babies have that same irresistible disposition 😍
We are ready for tomorrow’s festivities and looking forward to it. I’m still mad my pavilion isn’t complete ( started for that matter) but we will teter our chairs on the uneven ground like we always have and look forward to fall with cement and shade) We won’t have Parris, and the moms there the entire time Mindy will move them around about half way through. It’s too much for Parris (who has not improved) and the pups need to eat. Weather should be beautiful!!

OMG what little snugglers, and PUPPY BREATH!!! So cute I can hardly let them sleep. Grace waits till Rene goes outside then sneaks down to see them. She loves puppies and is really enjoying having Lyra back. Looks like she will be staying. We love her, she is delightfully like her mother. She will be enjoying her first poodle reunion Saturday.
Scarlett and Beemer adjusted to their new situation better than we could have hoped. Their new family is so happy to have them 😍❤️ A perfect match. So sad it was necessary😭😭
Parris is not doing any better. No energy, no appetite. Pretty much miserable. Sleeps unless we go to the park. It breaks my heart seeing her like this. I hope the test results reveal something different we can do, I’m not sure this is a long term course I’m willing to ask her to endure. I want my perky happy girl back😭 And at any rate the 13 year old version. She never wags, clearly not enjoying her days😭😭😭

Ruben’s litter mate Hershey now 12 1/2 years old. It was nice to hear how much his family loves him. I know exactly how they feel, Ruben was just the perfect boy❤️❤️ How we miss him😭 Those same knowing eyes that all his sibling seem to possess. 😍

Our first ride of 2016 and as always the girls love it. Lyra enjoyed it, her mother was a captive audience for puppy abuse☺️ Rosalie and Rene relaxed and soaked in the warm breeze😀 Such good moms! The babies are getting so big! They will be off to their new homes before we know it!

We are almost ready for the reunion.  Our 7th one!!

OH my favorite day!! EVERYTHING seems to change on this day, suddenly they can walk and they want lovin!! They toddle over and put their head in your hand❤️❤️ They bark and growl it is so cute!! No way you can resist these adorable faces!!

Phantom is a rare and unique poodle color. There are lots of breeds with this color pattern (Doberman and Rottweiler for example)but few people know poodles come in these colors combination. I’ve seen the markings vary too with the entire head the lighter color. If you like unique, this is the color for you. Dennis and Rosalie have available phantoms. Lysa is going to look just like her sister ( Tyrion too😀)
I’m so mad! Two months ago I bought a metal roof so we could have shade for the reunions. You’d think two months would be plenty of time to get this done BUT NO!! We can’t get anybody to pour a pad of cement😡😡😡 I planned to have it in for Saturday but contractors won’t call back or don’t want a small easy job.
We’ve had this same problem with the new house, people don’t seem to need work😡 At any rate we’ll have fun without the pavilion

Our adorable studmuffin Wally is 4 today! He is the sweetest boy, everybody loves his babies😘 He and our girls compliment each other’s personalities making for loving easy going family members😍 He will be at the reunion Saturday along with Dennis ( both with babies now) Reggie will be there too. Can’t wait to see them😀 AND ALL OUR POODLES AND THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEM☺️☺️😘

I love bottle feeding puppies ( except the part it has to be the exact temp of mom or they won’t drink it) I love how they snuggle down in your hands and how they sniff for you and crawl to you even before they can see. It’s impossible not to fall in love with every one❤️😍 Everybody is doing great. A few more people need to pick their baby yet but once done we will know who will be looking for a fabulous family to love them😘

After a long day of birthing we are thrilled with our 7 girls and three boys from Rosalie and Dennis😀 Lots of phantoms! We love our GAME OF THRONES theme😍

Precious Patti Sue is 11 years old😭😩
How I hate the years passing so fast, it seems only yesterday I brought her home as a little puppy🙁Such a love, always the best girl. Thankfully she seems very healthy ( although she did have breast cancer earlier this year) I want 11 more years with her❤️
Parris has good and bad days, Monday she has another test to determine if the meds she on is reducing the cortisol in her system (regulates sugar and salt) she is eating a little better. I’m thankful for any improvement.
All the babies are doing great. I’m feeding Rosalie’s babies every couple hours just to make sure they are getting enough to eat. The last babies were a tad smaller than the babies before them and its easy for them to get knocked off a nipple, fall behind and get weak. Making sure they get plenty to eat keeps them strong so they can catch up to the others😀
More birthdays today! Lexie and Reggies GERMAN BABIES are three!
Claudia/Allie, Bertha/Rosie, Chloris/Sally, Anniken & Bettie the CURLY GIRLS Annushka and Bettina, Dominik/Churchill and Anton/Ruger😘
