Camping


Last week I decided that I needed a break and wanted to go camping. I book the campground and made my plans. I was going to be gone for a few days so I took Ella with me. The group that I was camping with kept saying that they had never met such a quiet dog. Ella stayed with me the whole time, she didn't even bark. She loved to sniff around the trees and stayed close to the camp ground. The campground was really beautiful and it was so quite I watch the birds and saw a hummingbird. Ella had fun running around under the pine trees even though she is pregnant and so did I. She slept a lot and got very dirty, and I had to pick the pine needles out of her feet every night, but she had a ball.

Ell's Pregnant

Ell's my little shih Tzu who just turned 2 in July. Two weeks later she was in the beginning of her heat cycle. I ran to the calender and then called my friends to find out that Ella's heat starts 6 months after her first liter of puppies. So I had gotten my months mixed up and realized that if I wanted to breed her I was going to have to find someone quick. I thought of my friend Lori who has a cute little miniature poodle, Max (he's gray). The next week Max came to spend the week with Ella- YEP she got pregnant- YAHOOO. Now I am making Shih-Poo's. She sure has been getting fatter these last two weeks. But she is so cute and cuddle when she is pregnant.
