is going to spend some time with Owner and Professional Dog Handler
Ron Villafuerte. Xander will spend each day going to work with
Ron. While he is there, he will workout on a treadmil, recieve
hydrotherapy and spa treatments. Jeez, after all of that, I wonder

Cali has been rebred to Boo and if she's expecting puppies, they
will be born in September.

weight this last week and loosing hair on her belly. We had two
ultrasounds done on her early on and they both showed no puppies.

Hopefully, everything will go well and I'll be posting photos of
the puppy on the News and Puppies page next week.

is not pregnant. It was very disappointing but, on the upside
of things, I can now show her at the Canadian Pug National Specialty
in April.
January 28, 2009 - Ultrasound for Cali
We have an ultrasound booked for Cali on February 5 - hopefully
this will confirm her pregnancy! She's acting a bit differently
within the last week, more snuggly and she seems to be sleeping
more. I had her into the vet's office the other day and when
they seen her, they definitely thought she had gained a bit of
weight. We are keeping our fingers crossed!

Vanna had her first show this weekend and she was first in her
9-12 month class and then, Reserve Winners Female all three days.

was happy, always very happy!' We are proud of our girl and we
are thrilled that she is such a friendly, outgoing character.
We expect great things from her in the future! |
