Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!
Our little girls have had a busy week. This week we went to the park and played with Dad on Sunday. We had a lot of fun and then it started to rain.
For Thanksgiving we made the 3 hour trip to Grandma's house. We had a lot of fun playing with all the relatives. The girls did napped all the way up to Grandma's but they were a little fussy on the way home( I think they were upset they didn't get any pie).

Snow Drop is a cute little explorer. Snow Drop is looking forward to going home on Saturday.

Our Holly has found her forever family and is now Sophie. Sophie is looking forward to going home in Saturday as well.

Princess LoLa is looking forward to being this years Miss Wisconsin.

Peppermint enjoyed having Thanksgiving at Grandma's house, even if she didn't get any stuffing.

Frosty enjoyed all the Cousins that came to Grandmas to play.

Ivanna always steals the show. So much puppy in such a little package.

The dog in the purple shirt is "Aunt Minnie." Every litter one of our other female Bichons will be the prime baby sitter, this litter both Rose and Minnie have enjoyed playing Aunt. In this photo you can see Ivanna trying to get Minnie to play. Ivanna tugged and tugged but Minnie just kept eating.
Of course we always take too many pictures of the puppies if you would like to see more.

This week the puppies will start going home with there forever families. The Girls are soo excited to start their new adventures at home.

All of our puppies have homes right now, we are looking forward to 3 litters of puppies in 2010. If you would like to reserve a puppy from one of our up coming litters please send us an email.

Fawkes puppies are 6 weeks old!

Our Little Princesses are growing like weeks. Everyday they become a little more sure of themselves and explore further from the safety of mom. This week the puppies favorite event was the mock tea party. All the girls dressed up and we took out all the toys to play with.

This is Frosty playing with the favorite toy of the week. It is a ball with little balls inside, when the ball rolls the little balls inside jingle. I found it in the cat department and the puppies just love it.

Time for a quick snack and then back to play.

Our Holly is quite a little explorer, she will wonder off into the kitchen looking for new smells. After a while she will bark and then run back into the living room to play with all her sisters.

Frosty let me know she was so excited that it was time for pictures. Frosty is a little slow to start but once she gets going she loves to play.

This is Peppermint candy she is just too sweet. She is a little princess, full of sugar and spice.

This is Lola (formerly Crystal). Lola is a card and a half. I am afraid she will have all of Wisconsin charmed into doing her bidding by spring.

Snow Drop is such a fun puppy. Snow Drop is also an explorer, with a side of Super Model thrown in just for fun. Snow Drop is looking forward to going home with a great Mom and Dad and 2 fun canine siblings to play with.

Ivanna is our little joy. She has lots of personality packed into a little package. Ivanna is still a little to small for all the dresses so she picked out a sailor shirt for our tea party. When she was done playing dress up like a good little girl she undressed herself and left her shirt on the floor.
This week the puppies are enjoying pulling each others leashes and making knots for us to untangle. The puppies also enjoyed their first trip to Petsmart. We have had a dreary week and the puppies are looking forward to playing outside again. Maybe we will finally get to go to the park.
As of right now Peppermint and Frosty are pending payment. Holly is still looking for her forever family. If you are interested please send us an email.
I have posted over 100 pictures of the puppies this week. If we make it to the park I will add more. They are just too cute.
Have a great weekend,
Loretta

Play Time!

I just had to share this snapshot. I found daddy and his little princesses all snuggled up in the same crate this afternoon. I thought it was just too precious to pass up.

This week the puppies had their first visit with Dr Quam and Bea. They each had a thorough check up, shots, worming and gave lots of kisses to Bea. All the puppies are healthy and very happy to hear they can now have visitors, Go on car rides and maybe a trip to the park if the weather is nice.

This is Peppermint Candy, she is the second smallest puppy. Peppermint is a bit reserved, she likes to take her time and assess new things before jumping in.

This is our Frosty. Frosty is a lot like Peppermint, she takes a little time before she jumps into the fray. Once she gets going, she loves to play.

This is Holly. Holly Loves to give Kisses to everybody. Even cats.
Holly loves to explore. You can always tell Holly apart in group shot because she loves sleeping on her back.

This is a picture of Crystal and Daddy. Crystal picked out her forever family today and is looking forward to exploring Wisconsin. All the trees to smell, all the cheeses to beg for.

This is Snow Drop. Snow Drop picked out her forever family on Saturday. Snow Drop is looking forward to chasing her new siblings all over the yard. ( This photo was changed Nov 17, I had accidentally uploaded a pic. of Crystal). Sorry everybody.

Raj is one of our Puppy Training Cats. Raj loves to play chase, but his favorite game is tug-of-war with the puppies leashes. THis is a shot of Raj and Snow Drop playing in the yard.

Ivanna is such a little doll. Ivanna is a big dog in a little body, she always makes us laugh.
Ivanna is looking forward to meeting her human siblings in a few weeks.


This is Holly checking out a chicken named Dashing(for his good looks). We have a greenhouse just off the living room for the puppies to play in when the weather outside is too cold or rainy, and in the greenhouse we have a few chickens and 2 angora rabbits. The puppies love to explore and smell all the new things we add to the greenhouse.
This week the puppies will be starting to sleep in a plastic kennel in the living room together(mom will be in a kennel right next to them). Wednesday we will divide the puppies in half and they will sleep 3 in each crate, Saturday we will have 2 puppies in each crate and by Thanksgiving each puppy will be sleeping in their own room (plastic kennel). I think I may need to sew more blankets :)
We do still have 3 little girls looking for their forever families, please feel free to email with any questions any time.
I have added lots of pictures to our Picasa site.

I better go check on the girls, have a great week!

Fawkes puppies are 4 weeks old and clean!

It sure is amazing how much the puppies change each week. The puppies are starting to voice all their concerns about food and making sure mom knows when they want attention.

Yesterday the puppies had their first spa day. Each puppy had a foot massage, pedicure, and of course a bath and blow dry. The puppies also were introduced to brushes and combs, their hair really isn't long enough yet so we just practiced.

This is our Holly, she is still the biggest puppy. Holly decided on a purple collar.

Frosty decided on a pink collar with white and pink spots.

Peppermint Candy went with a red and white stripped collar. She is just too sweet.

Snow Drop Decided on a light blue collar. Snow Drop reminds me of a snow ball. She has very long hair that just poofed out.

Crystal went with a purple stripped collar. Crystal looks like she may have a beige ear on her left. It is still pretty light but there is a difference.

Ivanna is just too cute. She may be the smallest puppy, but she makes up for it in gumption. She doesn't let any of her sisters push her around.

Nap time with Sam.

We were very happy to here the weather in Iowa is supposed to be warm this weekend. The puppies will be able to go outside and explore this weekend. This afternoon they will spend a half an hour or so in the green house, walking on gravel for the first time will be fun. This week the puppies will be more active than they have been in the past and will enjoy meeting the cats, rabbits and chicks. They may even start to play with the mountain of toys we have ready for them. :)
Ok, I just want to warn you I have been very camera happy, if you want to seen lots more pictures of the puppies.

We only have 3 puppies still available if you are interested in adding one of our princesses to your family please send us an email.
