Do what you can

Posted on March 28, 2020 by pinewoodcavapoos

We are fortunate to live in the country where we can get outside, walk around and not worry about bumping into anyone during this time of distancing ourselves from others. We live in a “neighborhood” (on our hill) where we … Continue reading →

Don’t look if you’re squeamish

Posted on September 20, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

Posted on September 14, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

Along with playtime and introducing different toys (toys with texture, toys that move, toys that make sounds, etc) different surfaces, things to climb on, we like to share different sounds with the puppies at an early age. And since we … Continue reading →

My life story

Posted on June 18, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

This isn’t meant as a “poor me” or searching for sympathy post, but a reality of the life I’ve chosen. 😊 We tell people that raising dogs is kind of like having a dairy, someone always has to be here … Continue reading →

Posted on February 4, 2019 by pinewoodcavapoos

I know I shouldn’t even be mentioning this after the polar vortex that covered half the country, but it was extra chilly this morning (compared to how it’s been here). Even though we live in NE Washington, we are huddled … Continue reading →

One Poodle, two Poodle, red Poodle, blue Poodle

Posted on October 4, 2016 by pinewoodcavapoos

Actually it was more like four Poodles and there wasn’t a blue one, but brown didn’t rhyme. And I was feeling a little bit Dr. Seuss-like. 😛 Yep, back to grooming Poodles again. I actually only have one true brown … Continue reading →
