Good news from Sienna, our little CC jr

Hi Grandma Mary and Mommy - Believe it or not but it's been 1 month since I last went to the doctor and the doctors all gave me a good bill of health. Dr. G said I'm doing wonderful and probably in a another month I'll be able to go outside without a leash - just my mom's supervision to watch me. I'm so happy. They said they'll see me on Xmas cards because I don't have to go back again. Only if there's a change. Also my mom says to tell you that painting is gorgeous. She wants one of me and Livie so she's going to have to contact the gentleman who did it. Before I forget I love going to the doctor because on the way home I get to go to McDonald's for chicken nuggets since I such a good girl there.I'll write again soon and send some new pictures. Love to all the gang but especially you and mom.

Love, CC & Doris

Now that's just the most wonderful news ever! Thank you little CC for letting us all know. So many have asked about you and were saying prayers for your recovery. We look forward to seeing those new photos of you being a happy girl playing with your sister Livie in the back yard again.

We love you!

We'ver have photos from Otis (Dove/Weylin's son)

Hi Everyone. Here I am with my wonderful family. I can't believe how I've lucked out and am living the good life on a horse farm in upper state New York. I have three little grandson/nephews living just down the road who come to play with me all the time. I have my own cat, plenty of palomino show horses, acres and acres of green grass to play in and more love than any one little boy could ever imagine. You can see in the photos above just what I'm talking about. And I know you'll wonder about all my hair flying everywhere. Well, I'm told my groomer had to be gone for months and is now backed up with appointments. Since I don't want my Christmas photos spoiled by someone who would chop me up or worse (freeze me out like Bella and Bailey), we've decided to wait our turn. I promise to send another photo when you can see what a handsome little guy I really am. My family says they can see through it all and know I'm all that and more.

I'm hoping to see Christmas photos of Quooby, Quincy, Sophie Ann and Summer. By the way, how are they doing?

Love to all,

Otis

Beautiful Sunday in November

Can you believe we're having 70 degree weather the 7th of November! A few weeks ago we had a foot of snow. Well, the boys are taking advantage of the day and reclaiming their Studville away from all those bossy girls. Of course, the girls are getting in a few words anyway....after all, it's what they do best! The last photo shows Charlie's almost a big as his Grandpop Weylin. Here they are overlooking traffic (down the hill in front of them) on our road. Campers up for the weekend make so much noise with their 4 wheelers and motor bikes.....very upsetting for the boys. They must bark their message out loud and strong!

Coco and her family

Gigi/Reggie's daughter Coco has sent us her official family portrait with her two brothers. Her Mommy Kendra looks wonderful with her cocker ear hair style! She fits right in with this mini mob. We are so proud of our Coco. Isn't she a beauty!

Chocolate & tan cockers are the #1 requested puppy on our wait lists.

I needed a reminder......a puppy fix.....
