IT'S SPRING.....IT'S SPRING!

Although it still looks a little wintery outside, it's SPRING!

Yeah baby, we made it through another long (but not as bad) winter in good shape.

Springtime means flowers, green grass and leaves, flip flops and puppies!

Happy St. Patty's Day

Luck of the Irish Cotons to you!! Drink a Guiness, dance a jig and cheers to the green!

Miss Sophie

Miss Sophie, 14 months, is the family teacher/tutor and takes her role very seriously. She knows computers, I-pods and her a,b,c's. She puts her glasses on and gets right down to work.

When she's relaxing she enjoys long walks, playing with her neighbors and playtime.

Sophie is excited to hear she will soon have younger siblings. Her proud parents are happy to announce they're expecting in mid-April.

We would be so blessed and lucky to have puppies half as wonderful as Sophie. Her family adores her and can't remember life before she came into their lives. As a breeder, it doesn't get much better than that.

Harvey, kitty and snow

Harvey is 4 months old and full of fun. He loves the kitties and will not leave them alone. He wants to play in the worst way.

He is a true love bug.

No AKC for the ACC

As an ACC Code of Ethics breeder I'm pleased the ACC is taking a strong stand against the Coton de Tulear being recognized by the AKC. Cotons are a rare breed and we wish to save them from the exploitation of puppymills, pet stores, back yard breeders and brokers whose only concern is how much money the breed can make for them. When money is the main concern the care of the dogs diminishes, health and temperament diminishes as does the quality of the breed.

The Coton de Tulear deserves the protection a rare breed, code of ethics breed club and its breeders can afford them.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas~! Peace of Earth and Goodwill to Cotons!

Christmas Card Rejects

I've been practicing my graphics by creating a bunch of different holiday cards. These did not make the final cut, although I think they're still pretty good, if I do say so myself.

An Old Snowmass Christmas classic

This photo of Butter Boo the Snowman has become a Christmas classic. I whip it out every year as a kick off to Christmas!

And then there's this other great one from last year's "It's a Wonderful Life" litter. LOL!

Happy Thanksgiving from Old Snowmass Cotons

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Old Snowmass Cotons wishes everyone a very peaceful, loving and wonderful Turkey Day!

Baby Harvey Meets a Turkey

Baby Harvey is 9 weeks old and is getting in the Thanksgiving spirit. He met, kissed, ate and conquered his first Turkey. Poor Turkey just did not stand a chance against this fierce and unrelentless puppy!
