Deerhound puppy conditioning

Deerhound puppies need lots of exercise in order to grow to their best potential. Here is how we exercise ours :)

Hanging out with the puppies......

Here's our daughter Madolyn hanging out with the puppies. They are getting cuter all the time!

Growing too fast......

Our Deerhound puppies are now eight weeks old and growing fast. Soon they will be leaving for their new homes. It seems like only yesterday they were born. We are trying to savor every moment the little guys are here!

Pugs and Deerhound Puppies!

Our Pug, Ziggy, loves to play chase, and what could be better than having twelve Deerhound puppies running after you? He has a blast playing with the puppies, and they think he is pretty cool too!

A Morning Romp

Our babies are now six weeks old, and really starting to grow like weeds! Here they are on a morning romp around the yard with their mom....

Last Summer Fling

Last week, Madolyn got to have one last summer fling with Grandma and Grandpa before school started. The lucky kid got to go to the beach in Galveston, the aquarium, shopping, dim sum (twice), and to Inner Space Caverns!! She had a blast, and couldn't stop talking about it when she returned. Here are a few of the memories. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!

Some of my favorite puppy pictures

Here are a few of my favorite puppy pictures so far. The pictures are at two and three weeks of age. Enjoy!

Puppies on the MOVE!!!!

I haven't had the chance to do a lot of posting lately, as the little pups are keeping us busy, busy, busy!! They've started running around now, and aren't too crazy about staying in the box very much anymore. It's still summer and very hot here, so they can't go outside for a good portion of the day, but we have a screened porch which catches some nice breezes, so we let them run about out there. Here they are......

Hello World!

The puppies are two weeks old now, and have their eyes open. Aren't they cute?

Pic of the Day

Puppy love!!!!!

Puppies, Puppies, Puppies!

Our littlest Deerhound dozen are keeping us busy every day, but we are having lots of fun watching their every move. They have already started making little barking and growling sounds---so cute!---and are trying to walk about on wobbly legs. With Maddy around, I think they are going to be very kid friendly!

Our Puppies Have Arrived!

Our new, darling dozen arrived yesterday. Twelve fat little Deerhound puppies from our girl, Ch. Big Sky's Artemis (Audrey) decided to grace us with their presence. They started arriving at 5:30am, and finally finished around 5 pm---whew, what a long day!Valor (Fernhill's Valor of Big Sky) is the proud papa, and our daughter, Madolyn, is official puppy sitter :) Meet the crew!

Christmas in July Sale!!!

We are having a Christmas in July sale at our store, Quarry. From now until July 31st, you will get free shipping with every purchase. We also have all of our earrings on sale. They are already marked, and can also be found under the SALE section. Please convo me from the Etsy site if you have any questions. I am also always happy to make custom orders (which will also be shipped free until July 31st). Here are just a few of our items:

Another Modern Farmhouse

I just love this modern farmhouse in Georgia. It has so many elements that remind me of my house, but with just a touch more "old farmhouse" flavor. It was also built for $90 a square foot----Score!!

Our New L'il Cowpoke Quilt

Here is our new L'il Cowpoke Quilt. It would be the perfect addition to your little one's bedroom. Use it as a crib quilt, play mat, tablecloth, throw, or even hang it on the wall. The vintage inspired scenes of little cowboys and cowgirls are precious, and you'll be impressed with the quality and attention to detail of this piece. You can even turn it over and use it as a white tablecloth, as the blue thread makes a nice pattern on the reverse side. The fabric is cotton, and the quilt is 40 inches square. It also makes the perfect one of a kind baby shower gift!!

Anxiously awaiting our summer pups!

Our girl, Audrey (Ch. Big Sky's Artemis), is due to have puppies next week. She is getting so big! I'm sure she is just as anxious for them to arrive as we are. Here are a couple snaps of our big momma :)

In the meantime, Maddy and Ziggy have been passing the time playing some games on the computer. Can't wait for the puppies!!!!!
