Spring is coming - slowly but surely!

 Yes believe it or not it is Spring. We have changed the clocks and the snow is melting. Even though we had some more snow last week, it is melting a little at a time.
The deer are coming back to sleep under the big pine tree in our yard. And they are starting to feel free to walk around. See all the pictures.

 So goes the saga of the deer....

On another note, the dogs are doing well and we are getting ready for the first show in the area at the end of the month: Easter weekend and the Thursday and Friday before. Four days right here in our city. Should be fun to see old and new friends come out after our winter hibernation. I will have photos to share during and after the shows.

Stewie who I have shared his show career with you on this blog, is in a new family with his litter sister He is doing well and Molly is teaching him the ropes. Here is a photo of him watching TV with his new dad and enjoying the couch all to himself.

Thanks to his new mom and dad, Ed and Shelly for taking him into your family. We sure are happy that he is settling in so well. So as you can see, we do have young adults available for loving homes. Please email me if you would love to take an adult lhasa into your home. I do have a couple more who would love a couch to watch tv from.

Well we are all waiting for the warmer weather, here is a picture of the gang hanging out a  lazy spring day.

Have a great week!
Rosey and Jan

Well, we are back at it again!!! aka We are alive and well...

Guess who moved? We did.Yes in September we moved to the countryside. 

We sold the motel business and found a great home in the country. Peace and quiet till we moved in.

 

 The moving truck was in and out of the driveway back and forth about a dozen or more times. Dean and I didn't move very well after moving all that furniture and boxes. We had alot of help from relatives, friends, coworkers and employees. Could not have done it without all of them.
So again thank you for helping us.

 

We also have a new family member. Another cat named "Puppy". Dean found him in the bushes at the former home the very last day he was there removing items and closing up the business for good.
He came out of the bushes meowing and Dean heard him. Picked him up and realized that this guy was not doing well. He was cold and hungry. So off to the vet's he went with him. Turned out that the worst thing he had was no food for a while. Purrfectly healthy otherwise and about 4 to 5 weeks old. So we inherited another cat and believe me the girls were not happy that another one entered the household.

We love our new home are unpacking boxes to this day. It is fun because we packed so fast, we only had ten (10) days after closing to vacate, that we were not as organized in our packing as we should have been.

The lhasas are taking awhile to get used to the new location in the new dog room. It is 29 x28. We have it in sections: a grooming section, food section, bed and storage section and then the lhasa section. Several of them have taken a while to get used to the room. But they are happy to have a great place to run around in. The walk out to the outside area has made both them and I happy.

This a view of the room before I fixed it all up for them and am looking into it from the door way.

 

 This is Rosie's favorite position while we were moving everything in. She sat on the couch all day watching and sleeping. I guess she wanted us to do it right and she wanted to be sure all her stuff got in.

 This is the beautiful outdoor play area for years of lhasa enjoyment. They will get to look over the backyard of 5 acres and see all types of wildlife.

The beautiful dog play area done.

So for today I will stop. I am going to try to get you all caught up on the move, the new house and our new life in the country. Dog shows for us start up in March, so we want to be all caught up the adventures of Rosie.

Rosie and Dora, my office assistants, who work so hard while I am doing the computer work. We are expecting a large ice storm today into tonight, so we hope that all is well and it is not as bad as the weatherman forecasts. Till next time,

Jan and Rosie
Dora, too.
