Raina is off to start her new life with the Reickert family and her great Aunt Flicka/Ginger! She will love her own kids and having another dog, the relatives seem to recognize our smell😊they seem to know the new baby came from us😍 Once home she settled in nicely snuggling with her new human😘 sadly Highness cried at the door when they left with her sister😭 we gave her extra love.

Boo Hoo it’s a sad day when our babies leave. They seem to know somehow, as do the mothers ( must be something I do) I’m happy for them, they are going to fabulous loved homes where they will be treasured members of the family.
But we will miss them😥 the longer we have them, the worse it is. Harlee is such a trooper, it’s hard to say goodbye but she knows we can’t keep everybody. We have done our best to ensure they have a wonderful life. Loved every minute of their lives, everything that is loved does better.

Well as expected JoDee’s new family is thrilled with her! How could you not be, she is so very sweet and eager to please! Just the best girl!! She immediately attached to grandma who will be home with her all day, they will be such good friends😍Alina stays close to her new poodle brother who seems to like her. Alina will have the spoiled pampered life we insist on😘
Raina/Nutmeg goes home Sunday to join her grandma Lexie’s older sister Flicka/Ginger. Sweet and beautiful Highness will enjoy her time here with us until her perfect family finds us😄

JoDee flies home tomorrow so we had a vet appointment for her health check, then we got Harlee off the bus and off to play at the park. All the girls are so good in the car. Highness ( top photo)starts off in the back seat then wiggles her way to the front seat often getting stuck😳everything she does is CUTE!! We spoil her terrible because she expects it😍
JoDee (photo below) has a big day tomorrow but she’ll do great, she is such a fabulous girl. WE WILL MISS HER😥

I adore cream! It’s among my favorite colors. My beloved Lily loo Pearl was cream as much as I love that color I can’t bring myself to have another cream baby (good thing or I’d keep this adorable girl). Her Highness is so adorable, she is so funny and is so much like her mother RENE! So elegant her prance makes me smile. She is such a lady, eats so slow checking everything out to ensure its acceptable. She is just delightful😊 she’s very outgoing so I don’t think it will bother her to be the only baby here with us 😍

The babies are so happy when Harlee comes. We all go pick her up from the bus stop then go over to the park for a quick mile. Pups love the park as do the big dogs, they sleep good!!

Of all the poodles I’ve had over the years Nicole and Elliot’s DOTTIE is the most expressive, she makes more noises than anyone else including an adorable purring sound ( her babies do the same thing) and her facial expressions are a hoot, you certainly knows how she feels about things😃 She tolerates Gracie’s exuberance

It felt so good playing at the park today! I was actually surprised at how deep the snow was ( so I wasn’t properly dressed) but we still did our mile walk. The babies ran and ran, they all did! We haven’t been there all week, as it’s been in the teens with terrible winds! This week should be better so we can go every day. They need it!
Bill needs to get the house he bought ready to move into in a couple weeks so I go over there every day and do something ( paint, stain, lay floor etc) I love projects and since he works all week it’s hard for him to get much done during the week. Once he’s settled we will start work on the inside our retirement house on the other side of the lake ( which has sat idle since deer season 😳) if I wear the dogs out before I go I don’t feel guilty leaving them😀 gives the baby girls some time in individual the crates, which is good for them.

Look at Rene’s little cutie Queen/Kenzie. Her new family just adores her! Here’s what they sent me:Hi Barb!
I thought I would send you a few new pictures of Kenzie. She’s growing up so fast! We are loving her though, she’s a blast to have around.
I usually only have to get up once during the night with her now. Hooray! We haven’t had any potty accidents in weeks. She’s really adjusted well. She’s great for Vinny, our other dog. Together they like to gang up on the poor cat. Go figure.
It’s been freezing down here in Ohio, so she can’t stay outside long. She loves the snow though and was so excited to play in it the first time she experienced it here. Smile
Enjoy the pictures! She got to visit Knox yesterday, so I attached a picture of the two of them as well. They love each other. It’s so fun to watch them play. Knox is so gentle with her. He understands she’s just a little girl.

How I love hearing about our babies. Knox was our Martin from Lexie’s Duck Dynasty litter. Another loved baby!!❤
The weather is suppose to be better tomorrow! We are looking forward to a good romp at the park!!

Our pretty Rosalie, litter mate to RENE and hopefully our next mom😊 Raina reminds me a lot of Rosalie and the funny thing is Raina LOVES Rosalie😍 she follows her and tries to kiss her. Rene loves her sister so much, she is so happy when she comes, she is clearly delighted, she has a spring in her step. She welcomes her mother, but it’s Her sister she’s happy to see. There is really nothing like litter mates😍
