Posted on October 6, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

Yesterday was the puppies “birth” day photoshoot. Well, Hazel’s is actually each Saturday, but I just make it a big to-do each Sunday for both litters. We take pictures, change ribbons, weigh the pups and trim toenails. And this week … Continue reading →

Grandma’s Corning Ware

Posted on January 24, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

Grandma might not appreciate how I’m using her Corning Ware pie plate. (Honestly, I don’t know if it was grandma’s, great-grandma’s or if I got it as a wedding present or where this pie plate came from). But right now … Continue reading →

Posted on January 21, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

Flower’s milk supply did not come in right away after she whelped her litter. It did finally come in but her puppies are still very small; much smaller than an average three-week-old puppy. It’s almost like she’s producing skim milk … Continue reading →

Posted on April 30, 2018 by pinewoodcavapoos

Posted on November 2, 2017 by pinewoodcavapoos
