*Sigh* so the last one didn't work...

I have 3 cats and one yorkie, his name is Marc Anthony but I named him Snoopy. Snoop will be 2 on march 16th so he's still a bit of a brat

I am a bit of a photographer so I will be posting as many pictures as I can hehe. Currently I am purchasing (for lack of a better word) Mutt, he has a bit of yorkie in him. I get the little guy on march 25th so I am very excited!

Here are some...semi-current pics of Snoopy

I think he really likes to get his picture taken. He's a cute lil guy! Looks well-loved, too.

I guess I'm going to get some more (hehe) I'm giving Snoopy's legs and ears a trim right now so, later for sure!

So I just managed to find a picture of my new little no name!
Here are some....thinkers
Sage
River Jordan -> Sacred river
Lapis Lazuli -> Precious gemstone
Copper Mist


No name is a Coyote X Border collie X Yorkie X Shepherd (What a mix!)
He is 8 weeks on monday, December 22 is his birthday. I think snoopy is going to love him!

Snoopy is a cutie!! Love pictures! Congrats on getting No name. He looks like a love. I like the name River Jordan and then I would call him Jordan. Can't wait to see pics of them together.

Yes that is one of my favorites
- EDIT I think I'll call him Jordie. His show name would be Native Trails River Jordan.

I think it's so funny the breeds in this pup, I mean coyote? Hehe the story was the border collie (mom) ran away for a few weeks and came back with the "Sire" Coyote trotting flank to flank

I loved looking at all of your photos. Snoopy loves to play outside, huh? I like River Jordan for the name of your other puppy, too.

Oh yeah. Snoopy tends to stay outside for hours on days like today, I have to go out, chase him down, catch him, and then I can get him inside. It takes about 20 minutes for him to dry off, but if he loves it, I'll let him stay every once in a while.

Snoopy decided today would be a good day to bark and BARK at the door, unfortunately I know what that means....looooong walk. I got him in his little coat and donned my boots (it's +3 degrees C here so it's SLOPPY). He was having so much fun, running around and playing. 4.7 KM's later we finally decided to head back. As soon as we got to the gate Snoop stopped dead, wouldn't move. *sigh* I kicked a pice of snow, waiting for him to make up his mind, and he RAN after it. We have discovered a new game, I throw a piece of snow into the air and he jumps!

I played with the snowballs for a bit before letting him inside, he was so soaked that I had to use a hairdryer after 1/2 and hour. He didn't like that.

That was our day.

Here is No name's story:

I have been looking for a "dream dog" for 6 months. Going from Tamaskans to Malamutes, to huskies, even to a NAID Native American Indian Dog Unfortunately no dice. The dogs ranged from $2000.00 to $700.00 which was just not in my budget. I decided to make an ad on kijiji.com as that's where we found Snoopy

I posted an ad asking for a husky. There were some promising offers but after a few visits to TERRIBLE homes and borderline puppy mills everything fell through. My sister told me just to look around on Kijiji to see. I searched Shibas, huskies, labs (lots but...meh), and shepherds. My sis bumped me away from the computer and searched sheltie. Many offers but, again, too expensive. I asked about 4-5 ads and got a few answers on cockapoos and one really snooty lady, then a rational response! I asked for info and.....

Well he was the first born but has turned out to be the runt of the littler. All the rest are black and white and well he is brown.

I dont really have anymore pictures as he still looks exactly the same. He does tend to over eat and eat and eat and just gets a big fat belly.

He is like a quarter of the size of the other pups. He is the only one left. He sleeps with our chihuahua puppies.

You are welcome to come and see him. I dont think he will be bigger than a sheltie.

I went the NEXT DAY to see the pup and he was adorable! I fell in love right away! She asked for a bit of a deposit and fished out $20 (fail hahaha) for a deposit. She was very kind and we fixed a payment plan, she even offered to DRIVE the puppy over on March 25th!

I am so excited and am beginning to plan my budget (for collars and food). Thanks for reading, I had to ramble

I loved looking at you pictures! Thank you for sharing! Snoopy is a sweetie for sure! He reminds me a lot of my Maddy. I love the way he does the 'one ear up and one ear down' thing. He looks like quite the little ham! It was a beautiful day here in Calgary, huh? I couldn't get Maddy in the house either-he stayed outside in the backyard for over an hour just playing in the snow. Good luck with your new puppy and congratulations! Maybe we will see you in Fish Creek park sometime!

What a great story in how you found your new pup.

I didn't tell you earlier that Snoopy is one of my favorite names and I have had a lifetime of love for the fabled Snoopy cartoon character.

[yorkieusa]

I was going to say that is some walk you guys took! Wow! We do a third of that or close to it most days!

I went to the pet store one day, anyone who lives in my area can tell you... petland is WAY overpriced. Anyways I was buying food for my cats and I saw a little jacket with the original snoopy on it AND as a added bonus, it said Snoopy! I didn't even look at the price tag, fate is fate.
