MERRY CHRISTMAS

Christmas is just a week away!!!   All of our babies have found wonderful forever homes. Sophie will be giving us some Christmas babies :)  We have shopping done, cookies baked, presents wrapped and under the tree.,grandkids will be visiting.  A very exciting season.  In all of this we always keep first and foremost the real reason we celebrate Christmas - the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.   Luke 2:10,11


MERRY CHRISTMAS

OCTOBER

It is such a gorgeous time of the year with all the pretty trees! God sure paints a pretty picture!
We said good bye to one of our older pups - Gabrielle - today.  We will miss him, but we know
he is going to a wonderful forever home.  We always keep our puppies until they find just the right
home.  That does mean we get a little attached to them the older they get, but finding that perfect
home for them is so exciting.  Gabrielle won't have to share any of their affection with other dogs
He will be spoiled as an only dog :)

Must get out and enjoy the outdoors while I can.  Have a great October!

OLDER PUPPIES

I just uploaded pictures on the website for three older puppies that we have available.  They are just as sweet as they can be and we so enjoy cuddling with them and watching them play.  I know,however, that they would love to each have their own forever home!

Fall Puppies

Wow, it's hard to believe August is almost over!  I am just not a very good blogger! My last post was in June!!!

If all goes well with a couple of breedings we will be having puppies in the fall. It has been
awhile since we have had little ones around here.  I am anxious to get the nursery ready!
I will introduce the moms and dads at a later date.

Kitz's Litter

We still have three girls and a boy available from Kitzi's litter.  They are 4 months old.
Zola left us today for Wisconsin and Jake went home a few weeks ago to Pennsylvania.  They both have very wonderful new homes.

Sandi, I know I've said this before...but you'll never know really how happy you have made us with this little guy coming into our lives. Especially now. Losing my Zeus in January (after 12 years) and with my husband battling cancer, this is a Well Needed Gift of Love. I wasn't looking to get a dog. I swore after Zeus, that I would never put myself through that again. The loss was heartbreaking. But I was just looking at puppies on the internet, happened to come across your page (and I was in Florida visiting at the time) and BAM...I just knew, I knew that he was the one. I believe that Jesus plans our every move...and I believe that that little guy was suppose to be with us from the very beginning. And now he's on his way tomorrow and I WON'T BE ABLE TO SLEEP!!! My son Jason is always teasing me about Jake because he is a "small" dog. (Zeus was Jason's dog since he 12 yrs old) So Jason would like me to have another 110 lb dog. Well, Jason lives in NY, I live in PA...and it's going to be MY dog. I can't train & handle a 110lb dog. Maybe 12 yrs ago I could. But I didn't have 6 screws and 2 titanium rods in my back from a car accident some years back. But everyone said that Jason is gonna be the #1 person that will want to be with and play with Jake. I'll probably see him more now that Jake is there, then I have all year. lol I'll call you as soon as Jake hits my hands....Jo-Ann
And here is a picture of him in his new home:

 

Update on Bailey (formally Star)

Star (now Bailey) was one of Sage's puppies.  We still have a brother and sister left in her litter. They are very smart as well as adorable!  We love hearing from our puppy parents!

 

 

Hi Sandi & Jack

Here is an update on Bailey. (formally Star)

He is now 6 months old, and a solid little boy at 14 Lbs. 4 Oz. at his weigh in at the Vet. on May 21st when he was neutered. We are so happy we have him. He is just the most wonderful puppy... very smart, and well behaved. He loves everyone, and socializes well with other dogs. He is so beautiful, with his multi coloring. That is the first thing we hear from everyone that sees him. Oh, is he beautiful, and that face. He actually looks quite different now than he did as a puppy. His multi coloring is gorges. We are so glad we came to you to get our puppy. He is so precious. He adjust well to any situation, as nothing seems to faze him. He struggled a little with the potty thing at first. but is just great now. He travels with us to the lake .... a 4 hr. trip and never fusses, he actually loves to go for a ride. He has become a Momma's Boy. We are so glad we decided to take the trip to Indiana and get him, even though we came to look at his litter mate and the other litter you had at the time. We know he was the puppy for us, as he kissed us and said take me home, I'm your dog. Ha ! I remember you saying you could not get a good picture of him for your web site. Those that might have passed on him, could see him now.

We also enjoyed our visit with both of you, and maybe we can see you again sometime. Thanks for raising wonderful puppies. Our camera is bad since I dropped it, so the color is not as good as it should be.

WE SAID GOODBYE TO MAGNOLIA TODAY

Magnolia, now known as Zola, left us to go to Wisconsin today to her new home.  It is always bittersweet, saying goodbye, but knowing they are going to loving forever homes.

SUMMER ALREADY!

Wow, I can't believe June is already almost half over! I have not done very well keeping this blog up to date.  We have been busy!!  We still have one of Beatrice's puppies looking for her forever home. Cheesecake is so cuddly!!  She is also very attentive. She comes when called, she is crate trained.

She does have pink eye rims so that might be why she hasn't found a home yet. I think it just makes her very unique.  It doesn't take away from her personality at all!  She is 4 months old and weighs 8 lbs.  She probably will be 12-15 lbs fully grown.

We Love Hearing from Puppy Families

Silas and LIssa home from the "beauty parlor"











Lissa says - "whew - getting pretty is hard work"
Silas syas " Hey dad aren't I handsome?".

Just thought you might like to see your "offspring". How ever did we live without them??
Happy New Year
Sylvia and Bruce






It is such a reward to have families that have purchased our puppies keep in contact with us - sending us pictures and telling us how happy our pups have made them. I have to admit that sometimes caring for so many puppies at once can be very overwhelming. Don't get me wrong, we absolutely adore them, but it is a lot of work! It is such an encouragement to hear how much joy our pups have brought to their families. These are recent pictures and comments we received.

Looking for a New Camera

I got puppy pictures updated, but they aren't very good! I
do not know what causes the yellow tint. I tried and tried
and decided I at least needed to get some type of picture
on the website so these guys can find their forever homes.

We did say goodbye to King (now Max) on Sunday. He is
living in a very loving home in Illinois.

Photography is not my favorite part of this business. It
might be if I had a good camera. I am looking for advice.
If anyone knows what the best camera would be for taking
puppy shots please let me know.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

I am in the process of posting pictures. We have a new mommy, Sage, and due to much
that has been going on around here this holiday season, I am running behind! I am doing
my best to get them posted today. Sage had two girls and three boys on 11/17/11 and
they are just adorable!! Sage has been a wonderful little mommy!

Lil Sensations Shichons wishes everyone a very Happy New Year!

It can be a very prosperous New Year if we just follow Joshua 1:8

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Lots going on around here as we get ready for Christmas. We said good bye to Cisco Kid last Saturday. We know he will enjoy celebrating Christmas with his new family in New York.

We still have three absolutely adorable little guys still looking for their forever homes. I'm not sure why the boys are always the last to find homes. They are always my favorites. They love to please and are so teachable.

Merry Christmas to all, remember Jesus is the Reason for the Season!

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace Isaiah 9:6

GOOD BYE LONE RANGER

We just said good bye to Lone Ranger, one of Lacie's puppies. It is always hard
to see them go, but it is such fun meeting new people and knowing that our puppies
are going to loving forever homes. Thank you, Minock family, for giving Lone Ranger
his forever home.

Price of Puppies

We have many people that stop by our website and contact us about our puppies.
A number of people question why we charge so much for our puppies. If you have
ever had a puppy you know the time and expense that goes into raising them, well
multiply that times five or six. A lot of time goes into cleaning, grooming, feeding,
socializing, and keeping each puppy healthy and happy. (Now don't get me wrong,
I am not complaining, I actually love every minute of it!!) This, however, was not
the reason why we decided on the pricing of our puppies.

People spend hundreds of dollars on phones, computers,toys,etc. that will last a
couple of years and then may be tossed aside. We want our puppies to be life long family
members. They will live to be 12-15 years old. We don't want them to be tossed
aside!! We price our puppies so we know that people understand the commitment they
are making when bringing a puppy home.

We receive great joy hearing stories and getting pictures from families that have given
our puppies forever homes.

Have a great week,
Sandi

Picture Taking is Not my Favorite Thing to do!

Lacie's puppies are 11 weeks old and full of energy! Posing for pictures is not on their agenda! I have to follow them around with the camera trying to catch them doing something cute or wait until they just crash!!

Hopefully I will have some new pictures on the websites before the day is over!!

This is Cheyenne, he is so gorgeous and is such a sweetheart! He is sleeping at my feet right now :)

Loving the sunshine

After two days of constant drizzle the sunshine is sooo welcomed!
I will close off the deck today and let the puppies romp out there, they
will love it! They definately need to run off some of there energy! I
have a terrible time updating pictures when they don't want to stand
still! And picture taking is on my agenda for today!!

Since they were named after cowboys this time I did my best to find
cowboy gear to use for their pictures. I guess little boys don't want to
be cowboys anymore, because I couldn't find a thing.

I still have one little girl and 4 little boys looking for forever homes.
They are all sweet hearts!!

Our little Calamity Jane now known as Penny is preparing for her departure to her forever home. We always hate saying goodbye, but we love hearing the joy that our puppies bring to their new families.

I heard from one of my puppy buyers, and thought I would share it with you. She also included a picture and her puppy is a handsome fellow. His parents are Kitzi and Connor.

Sandi,

Here is an updated picture of Rigley after his first birthday.

He has been a wonderful dog for my husband and I.

We are very pleased with how quickly he learns new tricks; ability to be house trained (he has had free reign of the house since March 2011 while we are at work); his good manners with people of all ages and other dogs; and his overall wonderful disposition and personality.

Rigley loves to go fishing with my husband and had his first plane ride in July (a little crying, but overall a good traveler).

Rigley has been very healthy and has taken well to all vaccines.

He has stolen the hearts of our extended family.

Thank you for such a great dog.

10/4/11

Lacie's puppies had lots of new experiences today. They had their vaccinations and were little troupers! The weather was so gorgeous today that I put their pen out on the deck and they got to experience the outdoors for the first time. They were so cute romping and enjoying the fresh air. They played for about an hour and a half and then were ready to crash. That was a very good time to introduce them to the crate. They settled in for a good nap!

Pupppies going to Forever Homes

We are busy getting Kitzi's puppies ready to go to their forever homes.
Three will be leaving us this week, one went home last week. All of
Sophie's except one little guy have gone to their forever homes. We
miss them, but know for certain that each goes to a very loving home.
We have more puppies that will be ready soon.

We love having visitors. Pictures of puppies can be seen on our website:
