Retiring Adults

I'm sorry for the lack of posts lately. It's been so busy here! We let Miyah and Daisie go to pet homes and they are doing just great so far. Miyah is still in IL, Daisie in PA, and Bridget retired to her forever home in MA. We thank these families for offering forever homes to our "furr kids". We realize the dedication it takes to adopt an adult into a new environment and I am thankful that they will be loved as their new family member. I often feel guilty that I can't provide as much 1 on 1 attention as I would like. But I know that they'll be pampered and get all the 1 on 1 that they desire now. It makes it easier to let them go, but I'll still miss them. It's easier to let puppies go because they are never "owned" by me....it's a head game I have to play with myself. But when I've already bonded, named, and spent so much time with the adults, it's really hard to say good-bye. I get updates, but it's still hard.

Maggie and Chloe both have healthy litters of 3. They're growing and doing really well. We still have puppies available. With the economy we're seeing a slowing of inquiries but are thankful that our puppies have still found wonderful forever homes. We still have other families waiting for a specific color or sex for future litters so we're breeding 2 more litters by Hailie & Bailie. I'm excited to see what they have in store for us. They're both adorable Cairns!

Our Doggie outfit came out in Movie


When I had my boutique open http://www.designerdogavenue.com/, I sold several doggie outfits to Walt Disney productions for a movie they were shooting in Mexico. It came out recently, "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" and the pink & green striped outfit seen in the previews is one that I sold them! Is that exciting or what!? I want to go see the movie but have had minor surgery, recovered, and now have been sick and haven't made it yet. I know the designer is out of many sizes but if anyone is interested I still have a few size mediums which fits the Cairn. I also have several outfits, designer dog carriers, dog beds, dog jackets and clothes, etc that I would like to get sold. I've offered special pricing to any customers, if you're interested please email me and you can shop behind the scenes in my remaining inventory. dow99@verizon.net
