My Name is Sadie

Hello everyone! I am Sadie. I just moved in a few weeks ago. I was born on March 22nd of this year. My first few months were in a loving home where I received lots of hugs and cuddles. My new mom says that made it easier for me to be a sweetheart.

I am still a puppy though and I like to explore new things. My new mom says "Sadie, don't chew on cords!' or when I'm outside "Sadie don't eat bird seed/leaf/twigs. Dad has this loud machine to clean the outside up but I can always find something to gnaw on. 

Mom and Dad were very sad after my big sister (I never met her) died. They brought me home and not to be smug, I cheered them right up. I haven't warmed up to Dad yet. Prior to moving here, I had very little contact with men. My dad seems nice but I have to take my time becoming friends with him. 

Mom has spoiled me a little bit with toys and a new bed that looks like a tepee. Guess with all that and the cuddles I get I am a pretty lucky girl.

Hope to see you again.

Sadie

A Forgotten Post re: A Visit to the Dog Park

This is a post that has been sitting in the draft folder for a few years. I have not kept up with this blog. I did however, want to let you know that Nellie Belle has crossed to the other side on June 29th, 2020. She had been treated for a heart murmur for many years. After so many years, the medication no longer worked and she couldn't take a big drink of water without fainting and so a difficult decision had to be made. We were devastated by the loss of Nellie. The vet we took her to, recommended that we get another little one. No one could take Nellie's place but another little one could help to heal our hearts. We did adopt another little chihuahua and I will introduce you to her at another time.

Here's the post that was in the draft folder:

The family became snowbirds this winter. We're enjoying the warm weather and are thankful we were able to be away from the awful weather. The area we live in here in Florida doesn't allow fences so Nellie has to be walked when she needs to do her "duty." There is an area here that is known as a dog park. It is just a small lot that is fenced in and your canine kids are able to run and frolic off their leashes. Nellie was very excited when we walked to the dog park.

When she got inside the gate, she ran...

and ran some more...

All in all, it was a good day.

God bless everyone and their furry loved ones too.

Nellie Belle Video Select

Nellie Belle hasn't been here for a while but she decided that this video needed to be posted. Nellie found it when she and her mommy were playing around on Youtube. Check this out, and see how hard these cute chihuahuas have to work for a treat. AARF!



Poop Bags to use when walking your dog.

Thankful Doggies...

Sometimes our "kids" aren't very appreciative of all they're given. These "kids" give thanks for their food before dining.

Opi Has Passed

Our Opi has passed away. He hasn't been feeling well lately. He went to the vet yesterday morning and was given some antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection and lasix for some fluid on his heart. The vet was optimistic that with the meds Opi would be around much longer. Unfortunately, this morning when my husband got up, he found Opi deceased on the step between our kitchen and family room.

Here is a slide show in memory of our sweet Opi. We'll never forget him.

Opi's Opinion on His New Shirt.

Here's the new shirt my mom bought me. She keeps me in shirts because I scratch my back and I can't do it with a shirt on. I think this shirt is goofy because I'm always going to look short because I'm a chihuahua! What do you think?

Nellie Belle and Her Oldest Brother

Hey, this is Nellie Belle. I love it when Matt, my oldest brother, comes over once a week because I usually can get Mom to take me for a car ride to pick up Matthew and his laundry that he does at my house. Matthew is a great cuddler and I love to cuddle with him when he's here. Here's a picture of us.
