Bella’s girls are leaving us today and although we are so excited about the families they will be joining, it is always a sad day to let them leave. They have been such a joy and so full of life. We wish them well and hope they bring their new owners as much pleasure as they have brought us. Go girls!!

Bella’s beautiful girls will all be leaving us soon and we hate to see them go. They are such a special group of little ladies and so playful and fun. Leila’s puppies are getting bigger too and really starting to get playful and in their “adorable” stage. Everyone who sees them thinks they look like little stuffed animals…too cute to be real! Taz has given us some beautiful pups with these last few litters.
We have bred our beautiful blue merle with a couple of our girls and we are anxiously awaiting to see if any of the breedings took. These would be his first litters so we are obviously very excited to see what he will produce. He comes from some great lines and he is one of the prettiest poms we have produced with his unusual coat coloring and markings. Keep checking back and we will post news of upcoming litters if we think any took.

Thanks to so many of you who have been concerned about our well being during the hurricane. I know many people in the Houston/Galveston area are without power and water, but we are fine here. We have only had a little bit of wind and not even expected to get too much rain.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to those in the path of Ike and we are watching closely to see what we can do to help.
Life can change so quickly from one day to the next…

Wow, it seems strange that today of all days…9/11, that we would be preparing for another big disaster in our country. We have family in Houston and some have evacuated and others are preparing to stay. We are praying for the safety of all those in the Houston/Galveston vicinity.
We are supposed to experience some heavy rains and high winds here too, so we are taking every precaution.
Our poms and puppies are oblivious….every day is play day for them, so they are just enjoying a few sprinkles and some nice cool breeze today. I wonder if they will be frightened by the winds tomorrow….it might be a long night!
Dash will be leaving us tomorrow (if the weather cooperates) and Dodge will be leaving us next week. I think I get as attached as they do and I will miss them terribly, but they are going to wonderful homes in Pennslyvania and New York and I am thrilled that they will have so much care and attention. They are special boys and so sweet.
I hope you all have a great weekend and take a moment to pause and reflect on this day that threw us into a new type of world seven years ago today.
