Marley at Cape Meares, OR

I loved this picture of Marley so much, I decided she needed her own post! She's sitting atop one of the old trees, the ocean breeze blowing in her face - the intensity of her attention really shows. It was about 59 degrees, a little chilly, but still nice enough to be walking in sandals on the beach.

We had a very nice day!

Kirby in the Field

Marty shared this picture of Kirby on point in the field. What a handsome boy!

Remember . . . .

Just a reminder that the puppies you see that have recently gone to their new homes, are not Marley's puppies. Those puppies belong to her sister, Lyric. We helped her owner when Lyric got sick and needed to wean the pups. Upon our return from California, we agreed to split the litter and raised four of them here. We enjoyed being able to help out and to have a trial run to see what it would be like to have puppies in the house. It was an extremely enjoyable opportunity we just couldn't pass up. Who can resist the smell of puppy breath? Who can resist holding such a small bundle close to your heart and know you are being totally trusted with their care? We look forward to being able to provide this same kind of love, only deeper if that's possible, with Marley's pups. Marley is due sometime around October 19th. In the meantime, she is getting daily pampering which includes belly and back rubs and lots of snuggling. We'll be writing more as things happen around here.

As always - take care and keep reading! :)
