Lillie & The Bud Man

Here are a couple pictures of Lillie and her brother, Buddy. They are great pals. They are now 5-1/2 mos.

Lillie & Cassie

Lillie (on the right) and her sister Cassie (left) spend a lot of time together. Cassie belongs to my pal, Judi. When we are grooming, the girls are creating havoc somewhere close by. They have a great time playing!

Where has the time gone????

I can't believe 5 months have passed since the kids in the picture below were born. Here is my pick of the litter -- Lillie --at age 5-1/2 months.

Welcome to the World, Beautiful Babies!

Born to Teddy (Trinket's This Bears Repeating) and Redi (Ch. S'Dandi's Redi or Not), 3 girls and 4 boys on Friday, October 30, 2009. Mother and babies are doing well. Everyone has a fat little tummy. I'll post more photos as they grow. We are keeping our fingers crossed that there is at least one little one ready to take on the show ring in this group.

Trials & Tribulations

As a lot of you know, I have been involved in a dispute over my beautiful show dog, Hannah. I will post all of the details of the trial very soon. We had as good a result as we could have I believe. I hope by posting the results, I may be able to help any of you thinking about getting into the business of showing dogs. If my post doesn't help, I'm sure I will give you a lot to think about.

New Telephone Number

For all the folks wanting to contact us at Tender Touch Grooming, we have a new telephone number. It is 309-251-2049. We look forward to hearing from all of our furry friends who are in need of some pampering.

This is Zoee!

This is Zoee Crumrine. She is 8 mos. old and does more tricks than the average puppy. She is a Redi/Ebony daughter and I am very proud to be her breeder. She is staying at Trinket Shih Tzu this week while her family takes a vacation to Disney. I don't know who is having more fun this week, but I think its Zoee! Needless to say, I will be repeating this breeding when the time is right. I'll introduce you to Zoee's parents in a future post.
