** News update***

We ARE SAFE!

We are SAFE ever so grateful for being spared from this HORRIBLE storm!!!!

To and for those who have not seen the news or weather, our area, Knoxville, Tennessee, was absolutely SLAMMED with an EF2 tornado. The tornado touched down in the west Knox area and it’s main area of damage was roughly between 2-4 miles from us.

Winds were reported to be 130 MPH at the area (*Lovell Road) per the National Weather Service and the area of Karns, Cedar Bluff and Farragut had winds just shy of 70 MPH. We are not too far from any of these other locations. So if you all have been here to pick up a pup- think your literally getting off the parkway or the interstate I-40/I-75…. We are close to the parkway and the interstate and you would pass all this damage to be at our home.

The damage here is extensive, devastating, and horrible. My heart is so sad for those who are trying to figure out what to do, where to stay or live currently--- lets add that school started here yesterday and today. I have literally opened my doors offering family friends and others housing but they cannot get here.

The main impact of the storm hit about 3 PM and I had just returned home from lunch with family; I had no more than closed the garage, let dogs go potty, and log into a work meeting before we had our area slammed losing power and the outside rumbling. Every cell phone and TV alarm was going off with warnings. Outside was scary, super dark, I ran with dogs to the safest area in our home and grabbed all their blankets and crates to keep them as safe as possible. They thought it was a sleeping house party but it was all about safety.

We stayed in our safe space – bathroom in the hall- until I could watch the storm pass on WBIR 10 app. Those guys are such a blessing for being so concerned and keeping all safe each and every day, but especially yesterday. We lost power 3 times and finally got back late last night. Power – is still out in many areas in town and some have been told they will hopefully have power Thursday or Friday because so many power lines down everywhere and streets are closed.

An office that I used to work in, less then 4 miles from the house, had windows all blown out and the apartment behind the old office took a brutal hit. I believe the apartment complex, right behind the office, had 10 or 12 buildings with about half lost the roof and the other half spared, the garage has been crumbled to absolutely nothing. The house behind the complex lost roof and has been slammed. Trees are on houses everywhere between this apartment complex and the mall- which is about an 8 mile area of distance.

I mean trees that have crunched homes into, entire trees between 50-100 years old flipped like twigs. I believe they stated per our utility companies who are working around the clock we had approximately 3-5 counties without power in total was about 50k people.

** Pictures were shared on area pages and I do not own the rights to nor do I have any credit for. This is all damage less then 4 miles from our home.

There are a few questions we receive frequently. One of those questions is about grooming and do they need to be since the breed is hypoallergenic.

So a little education lesson, you either have breeds that shed- labs, huskys, aussies etc or breeds that have a higher grooming need: Bichon Frise, poodles, doodles etc.

Bichon Frises absolutely require grooming and frequent brushing to remove and dematt the undercoat.

Another question, we frequently are asked is "Do you groom or do you take somewhere?"

We do their grooming 99% of the time and this is because for us it is just easier. Our guys are great for any groomers who have groomed them. With Each of our kid (*aka bichon), we started immediately with working on feet trims, buzzers etc so it was not a scary thing but a we got this thing.

* here is a 📷 of the fuzz which was buzz for there summer styles. We like for them to be cooler in the Summer.

To those who may ask what do we use, we use an andis AG super 2 speed pro- Summer cut is a 5fc blade

So on my hobby lobby adventure today, I found this towel. I had to laugh 🤣 at the accuracy 🤣 written on the towel, especially since our 🐩🐩🐩🐩 ❤️ to be in- the- know always on our neighbors and whatever they are doing!

Who else can relate 🤪 because these kids 🐩🐩🐩🐩 are all into everyone business?

Neighbors pulling in their drive 🚗 and into garage, turning their porch lights on = noses plastered to windows 🪟 to see what they are doing🤣 or them inching over the loveseat to see over the fence so they can watch another neighbor mow their yard.

Each and every morning 🌄, ☕️ is made to start the day. It is requirement 🤣 y'all for me! Anyway, when I pour my cup ☕️ add my creamer and sit down, I get the 👀 because they want my coffee. I am not sharing 🤣 y'all! Coffee ☕️ is not for doggie 🐩 .

Anyone else have morning 🌄 traditions ?


18/03/2023

There are a few questions that I am frequently asked. One of those questions is, are bichon's nosey 🙄 🤔?

The answer is ABSOLUTELY 💯. They always have to be in the know 🤣 and in 👀 sight.

For example, our female started sitting in a new spot on our loveseat, which I thought was odd. The same couches we have had for years and they didn't want anything to do with the loveseat. Until.....this gal figured out that she can sit on the back of the loveseat watch the driveway, keep 👀 on the garage door, front door, and stand on back of the couch 🛋 so she can see over their fence to watch everything our neighbors are doing.

So if you are considering a bichon frise as an addition to your family, be prepared they are always in the know 🤣

The puppy has a 🏡 in Tennessee ❤️.


22/02/2023

Please DM us for more information.

We are located in Knoxville, Tennessee.
We do not ship. However, we will gladly meet you at McGhee Tyson.

06/02/2023

We are so excited to meet our puppy families this coming weekend!!!!

We out of our 7 puppies- 5 are staying in Tennessee, 1 going to Georgia, and 1 to Alabama.


05/02/2023

We have noticed that we are receiving many of the same questions through DM so let's answer these :

1. Are parents on site?

* Answer is yes

2. Can you meet parents?

* Answer is yes

3. What do parents weigh?

* Answer 10-12 lbs

4. Do your dogs regularly see vet or have one?

* Answer- Yes, we have used same family of vets- 50 yr within our family. They have vetted multiple generations of families critters. And yes, these furry kids sit on counter waiting for their treat when we leave.

5. Are your dogs family or are they in another location 🤔?

Answer:

Our dogs are our kids; they are not an outside breed so no they are not left outside or in runs. They have a fenced yard where they all play do their zoomies, shred sticks and sleep 😴 in the 🌞. They go to: ace hardware, lowes, home depot, and academy sports. Our dogs are people junkies. Additionally, they are on ever piece of furniture here and sleep in bed.

6. Where are we located?

* Answer- We are located in Knoxville, Tennessee. This is stated in multiple places; our home page, multiple posts and our AKC page.

7. Do you ship?

* Answer- No, we do not and we will not. However, we will gladly meet you at McGhee Tyson, which for us is about a 45 min drive.

8. Why do you not ship?

*Answer - A few reasons here they are:

* in order for pup to fly, they have to have a form signed by vet - it is only valid 10 days from date of signature. If that window is missed, you must go back to vet for another visit and certificate. Not all vets can sign documents.

If the weather drops under a certain temp, they will not fly or will reschedule pups. Additionally, they only fly out during a few weekdays.



9. Will you ground transport for us or release to a company?

Answer --no because we want to ensure that the forever family is receiving a wonderful pup and I can not ensure this if the transfer occurs elsewhere. We have connected with many across the country who had horrible experience with with never receiving their pup or receiving a sick pup.

Yesterday was 🛁 for 🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩 of the 7 pups; other 2 pups are getting baths today. Puppies were washed in their sensitive soap, conditioned, dry with the fluffer, nail cut aka a paw-a-cure, b***y glands done. They also got 1st booster and wormer.

We start working with and handling feet and 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 at 2 weeks of age. We are all about creating a wonderful experience with the foundation of grooming, baths, feet, and nails.

There is so much value in this--- we promise it matters. This helps them not be so 😱 of scary things, learn it is ok and helps them transition into a full groom so much easier.

We have connected with past pup families and their groomers cannot believe the difference in how our pups handle groomers.

Does this mean they are always perfect--- no but it definitely provides a strong foundation.

One of the question I am asked pretty frequently is:
"What or how i do I handle furry- kid feet smell like freetos?

So if you have smelled this feet stinky- you what I am talking about. It smells and they itch and dig.

Here is the best answer (*no I am not a vet- but feel free to also research), yeast comes from a few things.

1. Allergies- many to chicken food/byproduct, lamb or some dogs cannot handle beet pulp . Yes that is also in some brands.

2. Wet feet from being outside -fur needs to be trimmed in paws

3 gut imbalance- needs prebiotic or prebiotic

We like this shampoo- because it has both Chlorhexidine & Ketoconazole will address both bacterial and yeast infections in skin. Be sure to read instructions!

These are ideas and suggestions which have worked for us.

11/01/2023

All of the kids🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩🐾 here have names that start with M and they also have middle names 🤣 that we call them on the normally daily basis. I had to be the different 🤣🤣🤣 !!!

Even though their names all start with the same M letter, they 💯 know their name and their assigned 🏠(( save space crate if they chose to use it).

Do your furry kids names all start with the same letters?

Do your furry kids have middle names?

So sock🧦 are prized possessions here, what does your furry kid ❤️ to take of yours?

'sDay❤️

10/01/2023

Alright y'all my southernisms sayings are about to come to the forefront- yes I use y'all- Tennessee gal here!

If those who have been to house 🏠 , met me, or played with the kids 🐩🐩🐩🐩 know I am being totally serious when I tell you that I live with 4- legged 🐾🐾🐾🐾 thieves.

So if you see 👀 me out with completely mismatched 🧦, it is not on purpose 😂. It is because I cannot find a match ------ it is because I live with these sneaky , sock🧦 thieves- 🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩🐾 have like stolen 1 of each and every pair of 🧦 !

I was unloading the dryer and line of thieves and 👀 y'all. One would grab a sock🧦, run into their safe space - aka their house to another ran outside under the porch which no way I can get under and another was doing zoomies around the backyard with a sock 🧦 like she was running for the USA Gold Medal 🏅.

But one of our sweet 🐩 ❤️ will take anything small little faster than you can imagine. Tell you a story and before you say oh no- this is made up--- 🤣 it isn't so get ready...

Family was in town visiting and playing with dog's 🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩🐾🐩 in their yard enjoying the 🌞 summer weather. I said just be careful you don't put anything small items down - one 🐩 will take , consider it a prize and bury it in her doghouse. I 🤣 was being totally serious y'all.

So our family was on the phone 📱 📲 and took their 2 sets of earrings out and sat both so close to them on porch - they were basically sitting on both pairs.

So what do you think happened, 🤔 🤣 --- our stealing 🐩 didn't take 1 pair but took 1 of each set. She didn't eat or put in house but hid them.

My family and I searched for hours trying to find the missing earrings- thankfully they were not expensive just fun jewelry .

I totally think Maggie did that too keep family visiting; especially, since that was their last day with us because when my family left Maggie went outside and brought both missing earrings and handed me. Neither one was broken or messed up!

This is a 💯 true event 🤣. I called our family asking if I need to mail them their earrings 😍

We have shared previous litter 📸 frequently as i know everyone ❤️ to watch the grow; however, our last litter, we had photos 📸 and video stolen from our page post them all over trying to gain deposits for our pups. In the side of cautiousness as I do not want my pictures of our puppies to used in the wrong way, I have limited the pup pics. I did however find a way to share a few with the hopes my solution protects my pups and their families.

Female pups: Gray and Purple
Male:Brown

So one of the frequent questions I am asked is, are bichon frise really velcro dogs and need to be with their people?

That is a 💯 YES. According to Bichon Frise Law, you must have their assistance with everything 😉 😂🤣.

By that I mean- sweeping & mopping - aka attacking both, vacuuming- telling the vacuum who is boss or running from it, work conference 📞 💻 jumping into the video because they gotta be in the know, putting their ears to your 📱 conversation, and last but not least, around here they move the shower curtain and jump in😂🤣. I am so not joking 🙃

So over the summer ☀️, we had family stay for a visit. I very quickly said the following- socks 🧦 are valued prizes and they will take. When using shower or restroom, be sure the door is completely latched if not you will have helpers.

So my company was getting a shower 🚿, I heard laughing, screaming 😱 and yelling. Let's just say that the door wasn't completely latched as my company thought so little paws🐾🐾🐾 pushed the door opened, proceeded to open curtain and jump in shower. They needed to be with their people.

If you are considering a bichon frise breed, please understand that you belong to them.
And yes-💯this is a real life occurrence in our house 🏠
