Miss Lucy got her pre birth shave down. Her belly is looking big. We are hoping for 5-6 precious beans in there.

Outside play time. Little bit of complaining because mom is hanging outside with us, but they are getting better about it.

Little Azriel getting some yard time without his siblings. He’s still available. Will be ready to go home at the end of the month. Estimating 8-10 pounds adult weight. Incredibly sweet, but does have a Fiesty side.

Got some update pictures from one of our foundation litters of poodles. Elliot, formerly known as Freki, was from our only Hugin and Munin litter. He was trained to be a service dog, and returned, due to no fault of his owner and found a new home and handler with someone who desperately needed him. Safe to say, things ended up exactly as they should’ve. I love watching both of their evolution.

This is what it looks like when you don’t feel well, and Voodoo assures you she can make you feel better.

This little boy in Georgia is still looking for his perfect home.

We follow newer studies that show, leaving puppies with mom longer, is overall better for the puppies health and mental wellbeing as well as their training.

Puppies are tuckered out. They romped and played until they couldn’t. They got to hear so many sounds, see cars and trucks go by, watch a lawn mower. They did fabulous.

Got the babies out enjoying some fresh air and new sights and sounds this morning.

We have people coming to look at both Rhys and Cassian. Azriel will soon be all on his lonesome. He’s a lovely black and silver phantom. Quiet and playful. Loves to cuddle. Would make someone a wonderful lap dog.

Sharing this from my friends over at A house full of schnauzers. I’ve had so many people asking for females lately, and currently all I have available are little boys. I don’t do waiting lists so when I open my litters to reserve puppies, it’s first come first serve. I do have a litter due in August that I’m partnering with my mother. I just had another female come into heat and have two more expected to come into season over the next 2-3 months, but there are never guarantees on s*x. It may do you to broaden your minds on getting a little boy. I’ve cherished my boys, they have been so sweet and Velcro like whereas most of my females are very independent. There are exceptions to every rule of course.

PLEASE READ 🐶❤️🐾

Did you know there is a definite difference between a male and female? While there truly is!

 Male vs. Female

Does a male or a female make a better pet for you and your family?

It’s not uncommon for people to believe that a female dog will make a better pet. We get a lot of calls for people wanting that “special little girl”. For whatever reason they don’t think that females will exhibit “alpha” behaviors like hu***ng and/or marking. A lot of people think that females are more passive and friendly and that they don’t take part in fighting over dominance, which could NOT be farther from the truth. If you check out the structure of dog packs, the females determine the pecking order and rule the roost. The result of that behavior is that the females become more stubborn, independent, and territorial than the males. These females are much more intent on exercising their control by participating in that “alpha” behavior like hu***ng. Most fighting will usually break out between two females.

Males tend to be more affectionate, exuberant, attentive, and even more demanding of attention. The males are very attached to their owners, tending to be more dedicated, reliable and less temperamental. They are more sociable, more accepting of other pets, playful for years, and take quicker to children. Most boys are easily motivated by treats/food, words of praise and are so eager to please that training actually becomes easier. Their playful nature, however, can make males more easily distracted. The boys are more likely to act silly and more puppy-like, always wanting to play games, no matter what their age. The boys are fun-loving until the day they die, whereas girls tend to be more standoffish and dignified the older they get.

Neutered males rarely exhibit secondary s*xual behavior such as marking and lifting their legs or hu***ng. Once the testosterone levels recede after neutering, most of these behaviors will disappear if they ever existed. Boys who were neutered early (by five months of age) usually don’t ever raise their leg to urinate.

So before making your decision on that age old dilemma of male verses female, hopefully this will give you some helpful info to think about.

Oh they were so angry about the baths and the haircuts lol. The attitude and pouting. Maybe once they peek back up they will give me some better pictures lol. Reminder I still have three puppies available. The two black and silver boys and one of the Merle boys. The first two pictures are the ones that are already taken.

07/27/2024

Puppies are about to get baths and grooms and go outside for some playtime. I’ll get some pictures and videos to post

Well, it’s confirmed. Miss Lucy will be having babies. She’s due at the end of August. These will be black and silver phantoms and wheatons.

Oopsie from our errors tour litter has come back available thru no fault of his own and will be ready to go after a little training. He is potty pad trained, we are mainly working on him being ok on his own.

Happy news. Daisy is now home in the arms of her owner. I think they make the sweetest pair. Happiest of times ahead for them both.

07/08/2024

Daisy is off on her grand adventure to her new owners. Can’t wait to see pictures of them together.

Vet visit today for mom and babies. Everyone checked out perfect.

Photo update on one of VooDoos puppies from her last litter. Little Belladonna looks so much like her momma in the face. Just melts my heart.

Our friends over at Knightingale Schnauzers explain what makes a puppy a phantom in coloration.

06/23/2024

Send some good thoughts to Whoops. Saw last night he was not as perky as usual, so I stayed up with him all night. Still very loving and wanting attention. Going to see if we can get him thru the weekend to get him to our regular vet Monday.

Momma VooDoo with her babies

Welcoming Voodoos ACOTAR babies. These pups are named after a much beloved book series of mine. Beautiful beautiful pups. These pups will be available for picks at two weeks old, but feel free to contact before hand if interested.

06/18/2024

We had four boys and one girl. We will be posting pictures and names later today, once I’ve gotten a few hours of sleep. These puppies are gorgeous and couldn’t have asked for a smoother delivery.

Not so glamorous side of breeding. Worked all day, have a hemiplegic migraine that won’t go away and the dog that’s in labor, always labors long. But I love what I do. I love these dogs. Every moment is worth it.
