Vet check was all good. Cee Cee is the most loving and happy little girl; rolls on her back for tummy rubs, and that beautiful tail never stops wagging!

Pablo

Today we received this heartbreaking email.

It is with much sadness I am writing to inform you that my darling little Pablo died on the 29th of November 2010. It has taken me this long to even string a sentence together to let you know.

He was euthanised after developing a blood clot in his little lung. I have put together a little something which I am hoping you might post on your wonderful website.

IN MEMORY OF DARLING LITTLE PABLO

Darling Pablo,

You came into my life and stole my heart back in August 2009. It was love at first sight.

I miss you my darling Pablo-doo...you were my little mate, my soul mate and you will never be forgotten.

Fiercely loyal and true, we only had eyes for each other as we did everything together.

Whilst you had no teeth, it didn't stop you guarding your weekly slow cooked roast shank for hours on end...you had an appetite for everything, sweet and savoury.

You were a love sponge, wanting to be near all the time, only food could pull you away.

Gone too soon, I am grief stricken without you...my darling little Pablo-doo, oh how your mummy loved you...

You were my little heart beat and will now remain forever in my heart.

Rest in Peace Pablo, see you in heaven.

Christmas 2010

Many thanks to Tarryn who bought all the little dogs a huge big Christmas stocking of doggy goodies, and a lovely snuggly doggy house in a gorgeous pink (who wants to sleep in it? Nikki (a male!!) The little dogs who are spending Christmas with us (their mummies and daddies having a few days holiday!) were very wary of the pretty paper and goodies!!

Squeak

Squeak will possibly never be available for adoption, as we are very doubtful she will live.

The only reason she is being listed here is to show the public some of the problems the well known registered breeders experience with trying to breed with these little dogs!

So many of the puppies die before they are eight weeks of age - they "fade". Why? No one knows.

This little girl is "fading" and we are trying desperately to keep her alive! Yes she is tiny - just five weeks old and weighs less than 200 grams - what you would erroneously describe as a "teacup". At the moment we are feeding her with an eye dropper every hour to supplement her mummy's milk. We need your prayers for Squeak!

Thank you to everyone who offered prayers and support for little Squeak. Unfortunately, this darling little "fighter" lost her battle at 9.30 am this morning 16th December at age 5 weeks.

Despite the fact she had hydroencyphalitus (sorry about the spelling!) and her lungs were filled with fluid. We thought the antibiotics would help but no. And her little strong heart was not enough to pull her through. Now we are trying to comfort her little mummy who now has to contend with milk fever etc. plus the loss of her little baby. It was interesting to see that little Mummy knew - the last couple of hours she kept trying to sit on little Squeak!
