So, my good friend Terri went boldly where no deerhound owner has gone before, and got herself two Silken Windhound (or, as my dogs call them, "Shrunken Deerhound") puppies from my friend, breeder Joyce Chin of Talisman Hounds.
And in the way of puppies everywhere they are too unbearably adorable to be real. So adorable she even sent me an email rhapsodizing about how they only peed on the CORNER of her heirloom Persian carpet, and had only destroyed TWO costly soft collapsible crates, and isn't it cute how they have so far managed to escape from every crate or pen she's put them in?
So, how cute ARE her puppies?
Pretty bloody cute.
Happy Solstikwanzanukkamas!
And I got to huggle and snuggle and cuddle one of them. I won't tell you what else I had to do...
I LOVE THESE TWO!!!!
Oh and I bet that snow is from today...what a surprise it was when I woke up this morning.

If I were going to have snow, I'd want it to be NOW, right around Xmas.... the problem with living places it usually snows, is it often DOESN'T snow for Xmas, and is STILL snowing in, you know, April.
I can't bear it.

As she who home-spawned the most adorable set of destructo hounds ever, I apologize to all Persian carpets and soft crates everywhere. :)
Christie, someday you too will be vandalized by an in house shrunken deerhound puplet. Just you wait !

I guess I got the non-destructive one. Garibaldi is perfect, or tries to be. I do have to admit they are addicting :-). But oh soooo much fun. Can't wait for puppy class for Garibaldi to start next month.
