Chica, Icaraus and coco



Chica loves our cats. It is annoying yet funny all at the same time. I feel so sorry for them. Icaraus is the brave one, he will stand his ground. He will take what Chica dishes out. Sometimes he will slap her. Coco is the scaredy cat. Chica approaches wagging her tail and Coco makes a mad dash across the house. Bad mistake. All the dogs then chase her down.

What does Chica do that is so terrible??? She runs up to the cat in question wagging her tail furiously and licks their face. And Licks and licks and licks. Until the cat slaps her or runs. Sometimes though she can be calm and lay on the bed with the cats. And that is nice.

Photography

We went to Kelly' s house today for a photo session of my puppies. It went very well. All the dogs were much better behaved then I thought they would be. And Kelly took the most beautiful photos. WOW. I can't wait to see the finished product.

While taking the photos I noticed a little blood on the pillow- Chica has officially started her heat. I am so excited. I can't wait. In two weeks she'll have her romantic rendezvous with Frostee.

Netbook skin

This is so cool. You can go to a website and get a laptop skin for your netbook, laptop, phone, Ipod etc. I used a photo of Snickie, the one with the angel wings, and made my own. It has now shipped. I am super excited about seeing it. I even put my website address on it, so when I'm drinking tea and using my netbook others can see my advertising.

Professional Photography by http://kellyrichardsonphotography.com//



























I am not a professional photographer but I do like to dabble once in a while. And I do recognize good photos when I see them.

My Mum had a professional photo taken of our dachshund, Hexi, and it was lovely. I have been thinking of getting some done of my chihuahuas. My photos of them don't do them justice. They are much prettier in person....

I came across photos of my little Snickie on facebook. The puppy application has photos of her. She looks adorable. So I contacted the photographer and she agreed to send me the photos! Isn't that nice? I am going to use one of them for my netbook skin. I can't wait.

I spoke with her and hope to go over soon with all my dogs to get their photos taken. Here is her website. Beautiful work. http://kellyrichardsonphotography.com//

Pepe and Boy













It has been a busy week here in Florida. I have been helping friends with their chihuahuas and I think we are all pooped. Lots of new babies to be seen, and pups to play with. www. Floridachi.com has pups and so does www.chihuahuacrazy.com.

Karen brought her new stud "Boy" over and we had a little play date. Pepe and Boy really like each other. I was calling them porker and shrimp, mine being the porker. There is a month difference in their age, and they are different body types. But both are adorable.

So I hope Boy will come and play again. The socialization is good for both of them. And they really liked each other. They ran around the front garden having a great time.

Tomorrow Pepe goes to school for orientation. Hopefully, he'll get lots of cuddles!! I can't wait to see the reaction to him at the school.

tongues!!
















I had a cat named Moose who would stick out her tongue just a little bit. Oh it was so cute. One day I showed my husband saying "ooh isn't this the cutest thing you ever did see". I touched it with my finger. What a mistake. She never stuck it out again.

Well, now we are present day. Pepe is sticking out his tongue.... just a little bit. AND oh it is sooooooooo cute. I have told my girls that under no circumstances may they touch that tongue.... that if they do, and he never sticks it out again THE WRATH OF THEIR MOTHER WILL BE UPON THEM.

The Pink Moon Chair




Katie, my daughter has a pink moon chair in her bedroom. Adult sized. She had a smaller one that died when teenagers sat on it. It takes up half her room but is nice and sturdy. She often wants me in her room to listen to her play her keyboard and the dogs follow me.

They love that chair. It is funny how small they look in it. But it is very compfy. We all pile in the chair, me and 3 dogs and listen to Katie play her new compositions.
