Happy 5 Months, Beanie Babies!!

Posted in: Uncategorized by emilyhurt | No Comments Wednesday, August 10, 2011

The Beanie Babies are 5 months old today!  Born 10 March 2011 via unplanned c-section, 6 little bundles of joy hopped into this world.

While she was a little confused at first (look at her poor eyes!), Fillie took to being a Momma pretty quickly and was just great with them after the anesthesia wore off.  I can’t believe how fast they’re growing up.

Ricochet, the 5th born, is such a welcome addition to our household.  She is just a joy.  Super easy to live with, easy to train, impossible not to love.  I can’t wait for many, many more milestones coming up in their lives.  The Beanie Babies are ready to take on the world, full steam ahead!

I recently entered this photo of my crazy Fillie in a little online contest for SummerFun photos.

This photo won us some goodies (reportedly on their way to us) as well as being featured in a couple of online articles!  Take a look at Itty Bitty Fillie in these two articles:

Canines for the Cure — Texas Agility ShootOut

Posted in: Uncategorized by emilyhurt | 1 Comment Tuesday, August 2, 2011

As my first official entry in my brand new, spiffy little blog thingie here on my brand new, spiffy little website…

I’d like to urge any and everyone to donate, buy raffle items, show up and support your

Dallas/Fort Worth agility community August 13th & 14th at the Watt Arena in Fort Worth as we participate in the 2nd Annual ShootOut.

I will be running my Ivie, Felicity, and Josefin.  My Madison will be run by good friendDenise Bridges.  I will also be debuting one of my DayTrain students there, a blue merle Aussie girlie named Gracie.  She’ll be running in the 16″ Deputy division.  Gracie has only ever run with me on her own, so I’m excited to see what she’ll do in a trial environment.

Jeff will be there helping me run the 4 dogs I have entered, as well as dabbling in running one of our black & white girlies.  Rikki and Artemus may or may not make an appearance.  I have a feeling I will be *really* busy, so we’ll see!

Every little bit helps, and remember *we are the cure*.  If you or someone you love has been affected by Canine Cancer, there is a space on the Memorial Wall just for them.  Go to the link about for the ShootOut and see about being included in the slideshow.

I’ll leave you with a taste of how it went last year — I’m ready to do it all again!!
