Poor little Sassy had a problem today

My poor baby began scratching in a private area last night and by today the poor baby was miserable going around in circles and biting and scratching at herself so we took her to the vet.
She has a little vulva infection from one of several causes. It could be from grass, a bacteria she picked up in the yard, as a result of her recent first heat or a bug bite.

While we were there we also got her rabies shot. She was such a good little trooper, sat on the table backed up to mom, (me) and never moved or flinched. The vet also checked to see if she has retained any baby teeth and she has not, that is good. He checked her little ears, I use a good ear wash once a week but she won't let me pluck the hair out of the canal. But, she sat still and let the vet do it. He said her ears looked great inside so our ear wash works.

Everything else about her was perfect and everyone there had a fit over how cute and how good she was. She got a lot of treats fed to her there.

The vet also said that she has one of the best coats he has ever seen on a poodle. She really has thick coat.

We have some ointment for that itchy infection and she doesn't act at though the shot bothered her at all.

What a good girl I have!

The beautiful blocks I got from Pat Jones


I just received the blocks I won from Pat's give-away and I am so excited and so proud of them. I think I am going to frame them, they are 8 X 10 I think without measuring and so pretty. Here is a photo of them. Thank you so very much, you girls just have to check her blog.

Posting a Thank you to some nice ladies!

Imagine my surprise when I received not one but two prizes from entrees to drawings I put here right after I started blogging.

Thank you "Just Between Us Girls" for the blocks. I am going to be very excited to get them.

Also, a thank you to "My Attic of Treasures" for the lovely earrings. They are just beautiful.

I never win anything so this was a nice surprise for me!

I have been so busy ladies!




Most of you know that I just began a new venture in designing and sewing for toy poodles. Well, my business has taken off with a surge and I have been doing little except sewing.

I wanted to show you a couple more simple dresses I made. Now I am working on a poodle dress and a dress for a little 4 year old girl to match. I will post the little mint green poodle dress here and when I get a picture of the two of them dressed up together I will post that also.

The mint green dress is for little Sugar, part of the matching set.

I also made a set for two sister poodles this week and they are posted at the top. I wanted that photo here but this is where the upload placed it. If any of you know how to replace a photo please tell me.
I am totally booked through mid March already. I hope to get some more time to drop by here.

Feb. 7th Sophia in her new Valentine dress!


I finished the little dress I was working on for Sophia Loren in Georgia. Here is the little darling modeling her new dress. Isn't she just so beautiful? Sewing for my fur baby friends is so much fun. Once I ship them I can hardly wait to see them in their attire.

Sunday was a good day!

My husband is not a avid sports fan but he did watch the Superbowl today and so I had a quiet afternoon to sew. I made another fur baby dress for a lady on my poodle forum. It is a bit different from the other two and I still want to add some pearls or something to it so I will post a photo later. Sassy hates it when I sew as she cannot sit beside me or in my lap, lol.

I love canasta and I have a friend near Chicago and we play several games a night and on weekends we play afternoons. I love playing on Pogo.com and like the sounds as the cards are shuffled and played. We played a lot today. It is so relaxing.

If you drop by my blog here, be sure to look at my little fur baby dresses on my other one. I will be adding more soon.
