BRRRRR, baby it's cold outside!!!
It's hard to believe that this little darling is 8 weeks old. Tomorrow we are going to Dr. Lex for our first set of vaccines and to be microchipped. This is one of the safest and easiest methods of identification for any of our canine friends. Should one of our babies get lost or separated from us then they can be tracked with a simple scan of their shoulders by any vet's office or animal control or shelter. A simple call to the CKC or to any of the chip providers will give the owners' contact information and quick as you can, our pup is returned to their homes and loved ones.
Don't forget to keep a watch for feet in this bitter weather. Frostbite is a worry this time of year and it only takes minutes to freeze the sensitive skin on the pads of the feet. There are products that you can buy to reduce this risk and alternately, you could try boots for your pup.
Enjoy the season and a very Happy New Year to you all!!!

These are the words I wrote back in September when we thought that I was about to have 5 Havanese babies.....
oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!!!!
Mommy thinks I may be preggers and you know what that means...... cue music......
FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD, HOT SAUSAGE & MUSTARD........
Well, after a long uneventful pregnancy I finally delivered my anxiously awaited litter of (drum roll please!) 1, count 'em, one beeeeuutiful baby girl!!!!
We haven't settled on a name yet, but momma Yvonne is calling her Piglet!! After all she has the entire milk bar to herself and boy is she making good use of it! Everyone here at Chicadoro is waiting for her first steps out of the whelping box. Flora and Downsy desperately want to play with their new baby sis and Maggie wants to help care for her as well!!
With no competition in the nursing department, Piglet is growing by leaps & bounds. Here is a pic of her after nursing today.....
Well, that's all for now and I'll keep posting her progress as she growns.
Hugs, licks & wags,
Lola
