Besides Puppies

Unfortunately, yes, there is life outside of puppies.  Really there is!

First, (okay this is still a bit puppy related) Maisy only has 7 more days before we get our first peek at UNO!  She has a baby belly and I'm still hanging onto hope for two.

Second, check out Jen's blog for an update on some stolen dogs.  My friend, Kim, in Arizona has been keeping us posted on the stolen bullies.  Why?  It's very disturbing and perplexing.  You can see her blog for updates.

Third, we have a bully visitor!  Bee, a puppy from Maisy's first litter, came back to our home for a bit.  Sadly, her owner will have a big change in her living circumstances and her job, which will involve a move out-of-state and much more traveling.  Being single, the traveling would have made it impossible for her to keep Bee.  So Bee is here!  :-)   She is getting acquainted with all of us and the dogs.  She is adjusting fantastic and is such a happy, happy girl!  Bee is 18 months old and will be looking for her FOREVER home.  I will be very selective about her new family as I don't want her to make another "family" change in her lifetime.  Feel free to email me if you'd like information about Bee.

Happy Birthday Maisy....almost!

Three years ago we were in search of that perfect little bully girl to join our family. Heaven knows its almost impossible to stop at one bulldog when bully fever hits. And it sure hit us! We absolutely fell in love with Otto and couldn't wait to bring in a sister.

We were excitedly anticipating a puppy from two possible breedings...both of which for one reason or another didn't happen. So I told my bulldog friends to keep watch for another puppy and even gave some "pink" reminders to my bulldog mentor so he wouldn't forget. Well, he most certainly didn't! I remember exactly the day he called on the phone and told me he'd found a little girl that could be a great addition for us with bloodlines that would be a wonderful beginning for our potential breeding program. It was an opportunity that most likely wouldn't present itself again.

So it was without hesitation, and sight unseen, that we dropped everything and made a 22 hour round trip to pick up our little girl. Now, I don't know I'd recommend that as the best way to purchase a puppy, but I trusted my mentor and knew he wouldn't steer me wrong. He most certainly didn't! Our little Maisy, born November 14, has absolutely enriched our lives. What a blessing! So....happy birthday Maisy!! We love you and all your bulldog quirkiness. :)
