AT LAST....
Maddie is 12 weeks old!
What a big girl! She just got her 12 weeks shots, (which was not pleasant for anyone, especially her), and is now wearing a collar as of today. Hey, every day is a big step when you are 3.3 lbs and 12 weeks old!

So this is what I've been doing for three weeks... potty training, finishing up the last of the summer shows, making a few custom orders between doggie naps, and taking little cat naps myself!
I can't believe summer is almost over. We'll be packing up to go south soon for the winter. Fall is in the air already here in Washington state. Maddie will be 16 weeks when we leave, and old enough to be in dog parks and meet other dogs. If you have never seen a Havanese, you have to. They are so darn adorable, good natured, and true clowns. It's great to have a puppy to remind you there is no such thing as a bad day!!
I hope everyone is enjoying the rest of their summer. I miss all of you, I've been in hiding with this little girl. I'm enjoying every minute with her, watching her grow, and WH and I are amazing how she changes each day.
Stay tuned to more pictures. And I have to post some shots of the wonderful class I took from Hadar Jacobsen this past weekend. It was great, we learned how to mix copper and bronze clay to fire. Amazing process. If you can find a class near you she is teaching, TAKE IT!

She is so stinkin' cute! We lost one of our dogs this summer who has been in our family for over 10 years, and my boys have been pushing for us to get another to keep our other dog, Silly Dog, company. I'm not sure if I'm ready yet, but we'll see...

You certainly have been a busy mommy. Your new girl is such a doll. Counting the days until you return to California and I can meet Miss Maddie. Enjoy those cat naps.

She is so darn cute Riki! It seems that she was a perfect fit for you and your hubby - I'm glad for you.
We have one girl left to sell....they are now 14 weeks old. I was able to get Buddy his 16 week shot early in case I head to Oregon to visit my parents. He will have to come with me as my daughter can't take him quite yet because her apartment has to be "child/dog proof". You know how puppies get into EVERYTHING!
Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Blimey - Maddie is growing up fast! Just like kids, a? Make the most of the last of the summer wine, chook!
Maddie is quite the entertainer...she's absolutely adorable.
Oh, Riki,
I just love that little Maddie! She is the cutest little dog! I also liked hearing you talk baby talk to her. That made my day ;-)

p.s. i talk baby talk to mine, too!
Did you take a private class with Hadar. I couldn't find any in this area. Do you know of any other classes close to Anacortes? I would love to work on improving my jewelry. Thanks.
Riki- what a sweet flic of your "Maddie".:)) Can't wait to meet her!
So much fun Riki! Maddie is so gorgeous and soooo much fun! (I wouldn't get anything done!) Margaret
