Benji aka Clarence and Sophie aka Mary after bath




It's been 2 short months for me since the "It's a Wonderful Life" litter was born and now it's time they all go off to find their wonderful life with their new wonderful families.

Tradition dictates that they get baths before they leave so they're clean and fresh for their new Moms and Dads. I'm hoping they won't get into anything stinky before they actually leave. Sophie's on top, Benji on the bottom.
ere's wishing Benji and Sophie a long, happy and wonderful life!

Excited Sister!


This little girl is anxiously counting down the days until they can pick up their new Coton puppy Tucker aka "Schnapps". To help make the time go by a little faster she's made this paper chain for each waiting day. When the last chain is cut she knows Tucker will be in her arms.

I guess you could call this paper chain a Coton de Tulear advent calendar.

I think this is sooo cute and Tucker can't wait for the big day!

More Photos











More photos of puppies at play......

Big puppies play with the little puppies








Today the big kids played with the little kids, sort of.

The big kids can still cream the little ones, making for an unfair playtime. But running through the snow and on the deck in the sun, made up for the sudden ambushes.
The big puppies will begin to leave next weekend. We had our big scrambled eggs, ham and veggies breakfast this morning since it's our last sunday all together. They ate every last morsel.

Little Boys at Play












Sierra's boys Snowflake and Tucker aka Schnapp's woke up and had some fun. Now that they're 5 weeks old play is getting more active and physical.

Wrestle, bite, pull, roll around, run away....all very typical.

Pretty cute boys...........

Snowplay!












Woo Hoo! No fresh powder but the snow is frozen now and they can run and play.

George "Bailey" climbed on top of the flower planter, thought he was pretty cool, looked pretty cute. But then it was time to get down. After some whining he figured it out.

They're having a blast rolling in the snow and falling into holes in the snow. Sometimes they find some ice and slide on that for a while.

Oh youth.......

Sierra's Puppies Have Fun!











Here they are playing and doing a little bit of flirting with each other.

Wynter being the only girl certainly uses that to her advantage.

Such funny puppies!

The Wintersköl Litter is 4 weeks old!











Sierra's puppies are 4 weeks old and finally getting around. They're at the muzzle and tail biting stage. They're getting used to the household and are not sure about all the noises and chaos.

They have been outside a couple of times. So far Wynter seems the most interested in exploring.

I'm feeding them 2 meals a day now and Mama is still nursing them really well. As their teeth keep emerging, I imagine she will back off letting them nurse.

Snowflake has a good coat which is understandable since he's the only white puppy.

They're all so adorable and it's fun to see Sierra's litter getting cuter by the minute.

Colby's Puppies out in the snow
















Before the storm hits this weekend, Colby's puppies were outside playing in the snow.

Not to mention they went on a big shopping trip to Lowe's and Target where Mary proceeded to fall right out of the stroller so that she could check out new mail boxes.

They were a big hit at Target because we sat right by the door where people could not resist coming over to say hello and pet the puppies.

A fun time was had by all.

Love Story











George and Wynter have found true love, even at their very young age.

They will be moving in together in a few weeks, in other words, "shacking up".

Please enjoy their very brief, as of now, "Love Story".

Puppies are 7 weeks old!











Colby's puppies are in the official teddy bear stage at 7 weeks.

They had their first bath and blow dry and I can't say it was very popular.

In fact, most of them said "never again", thank you.
Little do they know.......

Colby's Puppies Are 7 Weeks Old











Colby's puppies are now 7 weeks old and had their first bath. I can't say that they enjoyed it much.

Most fussed and certainly did not like the blow dryer.

Clarence laid down for his bath but did not like the dryer. He was so undone he slept for hours after that.

Now they smell good and are nice and fluffy.

Merry Christmas
