Yvonne's place is NEXT DOOR to her old place. I will try to put a havanese flag out front. Hope you can join us. Directions are here. The house # is 25. There is no picnic in 2020 due to COVID but hopefully in 2021. Stay Tuned!

Got questions? Ask away.

The Siblings

Click on Photo for Larger ViewNora and Pepper are both here and they are siblings from Spice's last litter. They were the smallest of the crew. Nora ended up smaller than Pepper and Nora is also sporting a shorter hairdo. Pepper has the hair tie on to hold her hair away and Nora has short hair in the front thus no hair tie.

Looking at this photo it appears Nora needs her feet cleaned. She loves to muck it up mom says no bath for her so wait till she sees the results of Shady and Nora mucking it up. hahahaha

What you don't see in this photo is Shady on Nathan's leg looking up as if to say where are you taking my Nora?

I have to say that Nora and Shady and Pepper and Scruffy are so entirely bonded. I hear its the same for Lily and Timmy. We had a number of 2 dog homes that litter. We spent a great deal of time matching the right one with the right home and it worked out well.

Lori won't be able to see Nora as she is getting picked up tomorrow before she comes so I thought it may be interesting to take a shot of them side by side.

I believe the one Lynda so fondly called Tofu will be around their size. She is as short in length in the body as Nora is where Pepper is longer in her body. That was evident even when young.

Everyone else is doing really well. I am still under the weather but better. I didn't take any photos other than this one and one of the pups sleeping.

I also started washing Tofu and our electricity went out. Then 15 minutes later it went in again and I started drying her the rest of the way (not good to be caught with her wet) and then it went down again for 10 minutes. I finally finished her but I give up. I was going to try to wash a pup here and there but someone is telling me something.

Good news everyone has been groomed. The baths... it isn't happening and they say rain tomorrow anyways.

Cute picture! They look quite a bit alike......Good to hear you are feeling a bit better Darlah, hopefully by tomorrow you will be as good as new. Could you please link the site address for the lady who makes the fish beds again? I seemed to have lost it :(

Good picture of the two. They sure look alike. Pepper looks a bit bigger than the last time I saw her at the picnic. Both have beautiful colours. Glad you are feeling better Darlah.

You are so right Darlah about Timmy and Lilly being so totally bonded. The match-up is perfect and for that we are forever grateful to you and Nathan! Their days are non-stop play and sleep, play and sleep, with a break for breakfast and dinner of course. They are such a joy and even our old-gal Sheltie has lost weight and gained agility and her love for her new siblings is very evident. We feel very blessed for the joy they add to our lives!
We hope you are feeling healthy again very soon Darlah. Take care. xxoo

Nora and Pepper are very cute and so similar in appearance.

Irma - Great to hear how your Timmy and Lilly are getting along. I've thought about you from time to time so nice to have the up-date.

Still having fun following the journeys of the puppies. :-)

If you use the Search on this site and put in Fish Beds you would find it. It's what I did. Here it is - http://craftysewngifts.com/CatFish.html
