Delighted to share that lovely Chelsea

from the Camden x Emmett mating has passed her Star Puppy class with panache!  Here she is sporting her 'achievement necklace'! What a cutie!!

Congratulations, Chelsea!!

Happy Easter everyone!

I just received this wonderful pic of Fiona from the Figgy x Dublin mating. She is 8 months now and a beauty!

I hope everyone is enjoying Easter and kids are looking for eggs 'over and under' to find surprises. Up here, well.... many could be buried in the snow.  It is taking forever to leave!

What a great shot of you ladies! 

Pippin and her sidekick, Bosco celebrate Pip's first birthday!

Is there such a thing as a birthday party for doggies?  Oh yes!

Pippin's guardian got into the birthday party spirit complete with celebratory hats! Thanks for sharing Rosemary!

Toot!  Toot! Happy Birthday to MERRY PIPPIN, ELVIS, DAISY BELL AND SIR WINSTON!

Pippin with her very best friend, Bosco.

Too cute to not share.

Received this adorable pic of Finley watching over her charge the other day.

Generally, I don't sell pets to families with very young children but I did make an exception with this family and I am glad I did as surely, they were a perfect fit.

It is not the clearest of pics but it was sent to me by his dad via his phone but you get the message.

I am so proud to announce that little Merry Pippin has passed her Canine Good Citizenship test!

WOW! What an accomplishment! Pippin will be a year old next month and has done extremely well. Both she and her guardian must have worked very hard.  :+)

It isn't difficult to see that Dublin is her daddy as she looks like a mini 'Dub' -  such people pleasers with great genes to pass down!

CONGRATULATIONS TO PIPPIN AND ROSEMARY!  

It is not often that I receive pics of recently placed pups at the same time but the three pups from TILLIE (not Figgy!) and Emmett's litter did just that!

What brave souls to deal with the potty training that THIS winter dealt us. Typically, it is not so severe but January and February of 2015 was certainly the exception!

So, here are the threesome that are just about 16 weeks old in these pics.  I am sure all of us are breathing a sigh of relief that the snow and ice are behind us. Of course, MUD SEASON is what we have to look forward to... wait, wait ... mud season isn't bad, right??  :+)

Adorable Harrison who went to Tango Wool Labradoodles for a potential stud.

Handsome Louie, who lives in the Boston area who embraced the cat and furry 'brother'.

Sweet Georgia Brown, who will hopefully become an Annabelle Doodle mommy in the future. Georgie is in dire need of an eye trim! I forgot to pack my scissors... darn! She lives with her mommy, Tillie. Quite the duo!

YEA! Piper and Dublin's first (and second) date were a success!

I am happy to report that all went well with both matings and now we wait. Dublin has a wonderful style and grace about mating - always wooing, being very gentle and kind to convince the girl that he really is 'the man' for her. I love a confident, patient stud.

So I would say to all those on Piper's list that puppies should be arriving in May along with bright yellow daffodils and purple lilacs in bloom.  :+) What a nice picture that makes in my head as I look at the mounds and mounds of snow still in my yard.
