Party planning

Evites went out today for Sila's second birthday party. We are hoping to get atleast some of the Gem Litter together for some fun and to see how everyone turned out! Cookie will get the chance to see other puppies, and hopefully Sila will be able to hang out with some siblings. We'll see.

Oh, btw, Sila will be coming into season very soon, we are just hoping she is out of the "danger zone" before the party. We don't need any more puppies right now! (And Susan's dog Jolli loves Sila to death as it is!)

Even if it is just Susan and me, that's still 7 or 8 dogs. I wish some of you were closer!

Growing...

I talked to Susan today about how her 2 puppies (born May 28th), and Carol's 2 puppies (one from that litter and one from Cookie's litter) were doing. I had seen the former 2 on Thursday, but haven't seen the latter in a couple of weeks. I guess they have all gone to the vet and all range from 26 or 27 lbs to 29 lbs. How much does Cookie weigh, you ask? She weighs in at a whopping, wait for it...18 lbs. She is a peanut. She has always been little, but she is significantly smaller than her counterparts. I increased her food tonight to try to put alittle more weight on her. She is completely proportional, she's just slim!

My wish list

For those of you who want to know me alittle better, I have put in this link so that you can view the array of items on my Amazon.com wishlist. It is continually growing and evolving. One day I will make some sort of dent in it, or atleast a purchase from it, which I have not been able to do thus far.

Adventures in doggiesitting

This weekend I dog sat for 5 vizslas; Sila's mom, 2 half sister's (one of whom is Cookie's mom), a half brother, and an un-biologically related family member. So, I brought Sila and Cookie with me to enjoy the fun! Here are some pics.
