The Colorado Peach Litter

                                          

                                        
Molly Brown and Rocky Mountain High had 3 beautiful Coton peach puppies on August 26. Colorado is at the peak of the Palisade Peach season and I'll be canning next week so thought it was fitting to name these little puppies peaches.

Elberta is the only girl and she's a beautiful mink girl. Suncrest is a handsome light champagne boy with a white crest on his head and chest. Hale is the spitting image of his studly Daddy.

All are doing just fine and settling into their little nursery.

Strange Blog

I'd like to apologize for the look of the blog, I'm not quite sure how to explain it. Anyway, I'm trying to fix it but may ultimately need a new Blog. Hang in there I'll continue to post.

Shipping Pets in Cargo-Terrible Idea

Old Snowmass Cotons never ships puppies in airline cargo, and this is why.
It's NOT safe!!!
Please read about how seven, yes 7, puppies died in cargo flying on American Airlines between Tulsa and Chicago, in the Summer! They died because they got too hot. Duh.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/08/05/national/main6744756.shtml?tag=stack
Inexcusable and completely preventable. Tragic!
In case you ever wondered why I won't ship puppies, now you know.

Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th of July!
"We hold these thruths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"!

God Bless America and our Troops who make our freedom possible every single day!

Jimmy

Jimmy is so mature for his age and very intelligent. He's very sweet and is very laid back. He loves to play with his sisters, nibble on his chewies and play "ambush". He's just fine with anything that comes his way and is no hurry to get up from his naps.

The puppies are finally clean after having their 1st bath. They didn't care much for the bath, despite adoring the water sprinkler, but they all survived the ordeal.

Lindsey

The puppies are 8 weeks old and full of themselves and fun playtime. Lindsey's personality is bigger than life with her homecoming queen mentality. She knows she's cute and smart and let's you know all about it.

Carmela

Carmela is a small darling girl with a huge personality! She is so friendly, happy and loving, a very special girl

Fun in the yard

I took the puppies out in the yard for the first time while some of the older dogs played. They just love running and playing in the green grass and tell the neighborhood all about it.

The young boys

Tanner is 1 1/2 years old and Harvey is 8 months. Both boys are just marvels, I couldn't more pleased with them. Tanner has a lovely coat, great little personality because he's such a happy boy.

Harvey Duke is all white, petite and has a great little attitude.

Harvey Duke 8 months

Here is 8 month old Harvey Duke. My little white, loving, fun little guy. What a true joy this child is.
