Where does eight years go? The “things that are red” babies have a birthday today😭 Chili, Penny (who looks so much like Reba it makes my heart hurt) Berry/Sugie and Rusty/Bentley. With only four they were butterballs☺️ the puppy socializer hard at work😍

I love seeing our babies Sally/Fantasia ( black & white) and Emir/Micky ( cream) 😀the adorable girl in the middle, Minnie isn’t ours but she is SO SO SWEET! I can’t wait to see them at the spring reunion☺️ We went to the park again today, there is still snow but it wasn’t bad walking. There is more snow in the forecast but as long as it’s not that icey sharp crust we can continue or daily park play time. The park kitties do not like the over zealous poodles and stay far away, I’m glad! I’ve given up on any co existing. I’d be so upset if any of the kitties were harmed, so best not to make an attempt at making friends and fail. A pack of sweet wonderful dogs act very different as an excited group😬

The girls needed a good run at the park☺️ Lexie and Rosalie joined us on the crunchy snow. Not much snow left in most places but the park is surrounded by trees and is pretty protected from the warm wind so it takes longer for the snow to leave ( at least it’s not mud) HAPPY GIRLS!!

What a beautiful winter day!! The young girls and I walked across the ice to the new house (one mile each way) they really enjoyed the vigorous exercise on such a nice day! They stay pretty close by, they watch to make sure I’m keeping up😀

Happy 4 th Birthday to Grace and her “Harry Potter 2” litter mates! Eunice/Macey, Fleur/Olive, Luna, Hannah, Vincent/Merlin, Stewart/Wellington, Stanley/Harley, and Duncan/Rocky!! Wonderful babies!!
Patti Sue had her stitches/staples removed today. Vet said everything looked good. I’m hoping she lives at least ten more years😚

😃My helpers. We spend 3-4 hours a day at the new house.  The girls like to go and it helps get them familiar with their future home.  They really love the almost 2 acre yard ( long and skinny so they can get up some good speed!) Going to get in the high 40’s tomorrow, where as I look forward to the warm weather I can’t say I’ll be happy with the mud that comes with it UGH😁

We have lots of TV watching poodles haha always makes me laugh. They seem to especially enjoy the dog show😀
I’ll put Scarlett and Cesar news here. I talked to some very nice people yesterday all had two dogs already, I’m not sure I want to place them with an existing pack, since being kenneled five months I’d like them to be the center of attention without adding the addional stress of finding their place in a pack. People don’t realize how stressful rehoming is, thankfully they are together which really helps (safety in numbers) they are young and will do fine once placed with a new family. It’s just so terribly sad it’s necessary😭😭

Sadly I am in search of a new home for Cesar/Beemer (Rene and Wally baby October 6, 2014) and Martina/Scarlett (Dottie and Wally born Sept 23, 2014) their mom is very ill. They have been kenneled since August😭and need to resume their lives as pampered pets. I will not separate or ship them, there is some criteria ( one being fenced yard) Both have been fixed and are UTD with shots. Call me only if you can keep them both their entire life😢231 972 7592 I thought they would be here tomorrow but on Friday they gave the pups rabie and booster shots and Scarlett had a terrible reaction (I warn against this even if the vet says it’s ok😡 It’s simply too much and why risk it) she can’t travel yet so the vet is going to foster her until the 29 th when they return back home from treatments in Ann Arbor. Hopefully I’ll have their new home selected by then and they can go straight there without an interm adjustment. At any rate they will be welcome here as long as it takes to find their perfect people.

OMG those ADORABLE faces! Grace and Dennis had the cutest babies!! Moola/Nikoli and Rubles/Bentley 😀we can’t wait for more of these adorable babies this fall😀

Its still really cold but getting warmer next week, the girls need a good run at the park.  We are still working on the house, and almost ready to start plumbing, just finishing up some electrical downstairs.  I’m really in no hurry to move but can’t say I enjoy paying taxes on both😁

My sweet Dottie and her adorable daughter Reba/Ava❤️ I love the dyed top knot, we match it to their collar and nails ( not so much when we have puppies😉) no wonder the girls like it when the babies leave, they are center of attention. Lexie and Rosalie are here for the weekend. Rene loves it when they stay. It was -4 this morning BURRRR too cold to play at the park but I go everyday to care for the park kitties. They have heating pads inside the trailer next to the clubhouse and heated bowls so their food & water doesn’t freeze. I love having cats ( my first ever) they are so sweet! I just love when they purr!!❤️
