Sealed with a Kiss

Moxie says

     ~ We voted!

IMG_3757
She slobbered all over the ballot envelope but everyone was so impressed she carried them in.  I can’t thank you enough.  She is so smart and a great companion.  Whether it’s lounging on the couch and cuddling hard or bringing in the newspaper.  Life would be so dull without her.  I’m hooked!

On another note, I adore all of your blogs and love the weekend updates on you & Cliff.  The last pic you posted of him holding the 3 pups is so good.  What a great pic.  I very much enjoyed Loki’s post today.  Ski patrol.  So awesome!  No surprise though.  These Weims are so smart and want to learn.  Amazing Shela.  Thanks for all you do.

Can we agree that Chrissy voted with Moxie? (Haha) I thought that up all by myself. (Get it?!?)
It has been quite the week. This seems like a good way to punctuate the importance of casting your ballot.

We are doing well. She has quite the temper and will let you know if she doesn’t like something. We are working at getting past the sharp puppy teeth thing. She is going to be a Sharp Hunter.

We are happy to hear that you are doing well with Style. We look forward to hearing about her future training and exploits. Thanks for thinking of us.

Costume, anyone?

Moxie’s In!

~ Cheerleader Sounds About Right

IMG_7097Every Halloween my mom throws a big Halloween costume party and of course, my dogs get to go too.  Moxie was a granny one year and our Cocker Spaniel was Little Red Riding Hood.  Last year Moxie joined my sister’s group costume as a circus clown.  She is in hot demand as she could care less what she is dressed as, as long as she has a ball.  We take advantage of that ball drive and always add a spooky twist with her ball and attach it to the hand of a severed arm every year.  She will drop the entire arm at someone’s feet to throw and she will fetch that darn thing all night!  

This year the dog’s will be dressed in a tribute to the T.V. Show Glee.  Our bossy little Cocker Spaniel will be Sue Sylvester (dressed in a red tracksuit with a whistle around her neck) and of course, Miss Moxie will be a cheerleader (all 80lbs of her).  I even picked up a brand new severed arm to affix a ball too.  Should be a blast!
 
Happy Halloween!

Everyone enjoys seeing Moxie and her entourage. (Haha) We know this year will fabulous with Miss Moxie as a Cheerleader.

Home Safe

McDuffrie's Style_2923Yes, we made it home safe. Style and I are doing well. We are exploring options for hunt training.

We are happy you made it safely to Southern California. We look forward to hearing about the hunting and your training. Thanks ever so much!

 

Cooper

With Luke

~ Makes us a Two-Weim Family, Again!

Meeder's Two_1518

The boys are doing very well.
Cooper is sleeping through the night in his kennel and has only had 3 pee learning experiences in the house in 10 days.

I think we are on our way, thanks to your great pre-training. They get along pretty well. Now for the 8-hour drive to the desert on vacation, figure it will be best to stop along outbid the way stops for potty breaks as the rest stops and main exits see 1000’s of visiting dogs which could pose a problem until the pups received his final Parvo shot.
I’ll keep you posted – thanks again.

Thanks for being such a loyal client. It looks good to see Luke tolerating the new upstart. It sounds like things are going well. Enjoy the vacation–it should be an excellent time of bonding.

Troy and Macy

Meyer's Troy and Macy_1773

Here’s a photo of Troy and Macy today!

 

I just wanted to see how you guys were doing since I haven’t spoken to you for so long. I also wanted to let you know how much we love Troy!  When we first got him from the guy in LA in 2009 I was sure it wasn’t going to work. But after keeping to Cliff’s advice of letting him learn from the other two dogs – he melted right in with our home, and into our hearts!  Just wanted to touch base with you. God bless!

Breeder Comment

It is nice to hear from longtime OwyheeStar Weimlovers! Brad has been a faithful fan for more years than we can remember. Troy was his third OwyheeStar. He took the risk to pick him up when things went sideways with his original family. Typically, we don’t do that kind of thing–ask for help. Nonetheless, everyone needs a bit of help from time to time. This rehome situation seemed like something that might be a win-win situation. We are so happy to hear our assessment was accurate. It is outstanding to get this photo and to learn they are doing well. Thank you!

I Get Around

Happy To Be Dropped At Daycare

Lily’s Mom Writes…

Thank you so much to our awesome daycamp for the pic! I can’t believe how much @lily_the_weim loves day camp. Makes me so happy that even if I just have to run some errands, I can drop her off and she is so happy to play. She just loves it there. (Photocredit @petshotel2242 ) that face. 💚💚. I am such a sucker for that face.

Ping Pong Anyone?

 

 

Lily now wants to play ping pong every time anyone from our family does. It all leads to lots and lots of laughter from all. It has been super hot here lately and these little things keep her busy while also out of the heat.

Breeder Comment

Thank you, Lily, for being you! The fun, as well as healing you bring everywhere you go, is inspirational. Girl–you are a much-loved fur family member. You are the first Weim we ever heard of that plays ping pong too! I think you are full of life and it oozes on everyone around you. Cliff and I love it!

Meanwhile

Hello From Kula and Pilikia

unknown-2Is your life crazier than usual? Do you wonder how you will get it all done–even when you love everything about the Holiday Season? Kula and Pilikia send greetings and talk about their many roles in the household. They have many things they see as the norm.

  • Their dad (Brent) goes away and sails all over the world. They have to wait at home with Mom in the home port for his return. They keep Mama safe.
  • Their Mama goes to work and sometimes they just have to watch the property. That can be a big job with nosy neighbors and whatnot.
  • There is staying in good shape mode in their household too! It involves hiking, running, biking, exploring, and whatever else the folks add to the agenda.
  • Finally, there is the sofa warmer responsibility.
  • We are the come with duo–we love taking the time to get away to our retreat at Downy. “Woof!”

PS: Dad wanted to make sure you knew we were keeping up our end of the deal here in California.

 

Featured Weimaraner — Roxy

She Arrived

She Arrived

Our Roxy girl hit a milestone with her 10th birthday today (4/09/2013)

Since we did not have children, we decided to search for a good Weimaraner breeder back in 2003, and found OwyheeStar just in time for Dottie & Silver Turbo’s new litter.

🙂

 

Beautifuleyes2Forewarned and Prepared…

We had been forewarned about the crazy mannerisms of Weims and endured those first two years without any furniture being eaten.

Our Garden Assistant

She was never a hunter and she hated the water, but she loves to pull weeds in the garden (and was fondly nic-named  “Rootin’ Tootin’ Roxy” as a puppy).

The hostess and official welcoming committee.

Sierra Exif JPEGIn Store Model!

We owned a dog boutique a few years ago, and she helped model the merchandise and greet our customers.

She loves people and has an incredibly goofy grin when anyone comes through the door; (she will come running up to greet us with a big toothy smile).

Roxy is a good girlcharm

She has always been well behaved, and such a love. She is so connected to us and is never in another room without us.

The last couple of years she started really slowing down, but her heart just keeps getting bigger and bigger.

We are thankful for each shared adventure

4223718420_db6bd8c2bd_bShe spends her weekends at the beach in Ventura, CA searching for the perfect stick, or hiking the Ojai and Montecito trails.

We are forever grateful to Shela and Cliff for entrusting us as Roxy’s parents – she is without a doubt one very loved Weimy 🙂  ~  Renee & Tony
