Try, Try & Try Again

Fiona had a bath today before next week to try some new products out on her coat. When you get them ready for a show, they often become a test case more so than a pet dog but what happens is you explore so many products that you find what works for you.

Here Fiona is so clean and then it starts to rain - go figure. Well, at least she had her walk in and she smells and feels scrumptious.

The old humans are way sick though so crawling into bed to try to get well.

We will post more later or tomorrow.

Booooooo - what is your canine wearing for Halloween?

Lots Happening at Talemaker

Yeah it snowed today and can you believe most of it stayed in our yard 3/4 of the day but now it's mostly ice.

It's way crazy and they are predicting more snow on Halloween weekend - just in time for the Havanese specialty.

My pack mate sister and I are going to dress up for Halloween and try to win a prize. The secret is in on what we will be - can you guess?

Well, that daddy human is still out of town with our pack mate Wasabi and she was having a tryst with that Coolio guy from Rockhurst (see his picture right here) and they had a tie that lasted 30 minutes. I guess he was making sure we or is that Wasabi and Coolio had pups. They will try it again a couple of times over the next couple of days to make sure we have puppies again in the Talemaker house. If it happens it means they will come during Christmas week. Is that exciting or what?

The human mom is still sick but getting better. We are hoping by weeks end she feels - well - human again.

We are all missing the human dad, the Wasabi woo and Miss Abs. We can't wait till they all return.

More tomorrow...

Perfect Havanese Puppy

My mom, Wasabi told me that 'nobody is perfect but me' except for my 5 other siblings - silly mom.

Yeah, my Havanese Halloween t-shirt came today and I just had to share it. It was dropped off the door. Mommy bought it for us from someone local on Ebay. She sells cool shirts just my size - well I have to grow a tad but it's poi-fect!

Now what do you think my 5 other siblings should wear? Got any ideas? The Halloween Havanese Witching hour will soon be here but we can't have candy. Halloween chocolate is toxic to us - well any chocolate.

We had visitors today - all these hairy things hanging out at the gate. Me thinks they were Havanese too. Yes, mommy says they were and they happen to be her pals from Sonrisas and the rest of the pack that live here.
