November, Belated.

Happy Holidays!

Wishing everyone the best holiday season - try to remember to enjoy the time with family and friends and minimize the stress and "unfun" parts of the season.  Yet I say that at almost 1am while still wrapping presents (ha ha ha!)!  But enjoy it the best you can, and of course, love those dear pooches!

And the stockings were hung.....

BFF's

Hey Max?

Yes, Sully?

Have I ever told you the one about the squirrel and the ...?

AAAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!

October Fun

Three lucky dogs enjoying the fall weather in Tennessee.

Summer Gives Way to Fall

The Chillens'

Busy with the camera trying to capture Bella at this stage - I can't believe Max was ever this small but I'm sure he was.  Now he is about 45 pounds of solid muscle!  A great dog who is so smart and eager to learn.  Sully is just a great farmcollie - incredibly easy to train and getting as big as Max but not as muscular.  He's still a puppy, too so we'll see how he grows.  Bella is just a little doll - about 10 pounds of sweetness.  So happy to have a fawn female.  It will be interesting to see how her coloring turns out!  

Puppy Love

Miss Bella has entered our home and hearts.  She's jumped right in with the "big boys" and gives them a run for their money when it comes to toys and food!  Her beautiful fawn coloring gives her such a unique look - especially when it rains.  Then she just looks like the red clay dirt found in this part of the country!  The boys know to be gentle with her and tolerate her puppy antics well - so far everyone is getting along wonderfully!  Thank you, Shari, for another beautiful Braque du Bourbonnais!

Coming Soon!

To a Braque du Bourbonnais home near you soon comes a beautiful fawn female pup born on 7/4/11 at Rufnit Kennels.  Rufnit Bella will join her brothers on 9/9/11.  I can't wait to welcome her bright eyes home!  Until then, I am content to watch the excellent puppy footage available at Rufnit Kennels' website here.  Photo courtesy of Rufnit Kennels 8/22/11.

Mister Max

Max isn't quite sure what to make of the "mist" option on the hose sprayer.  Poor quality cell phone video, but you get the idea...
