READY - SET - GO

Hello everyone.... Blu Loo Loo here. All I can say is that Mommy, Aunt Judi, and Cousin Vicky wished that they had a camcorder of themselves.... lots of treat rewards, lots of "stay," "don't move," "leave it," "noooooooo!" and on and on. Teeheeheehehee ..... I guess it worked because after about an hour of torture.... it was over. We knew that because of all the "sighing" going on! Mommy said it was a lot like Christmas shopping!!!

Well, here goes nothing!

Now wasn't this funny???? Aren't you laughing???? The Tenkiller Airedales would like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Aireslaps,

Blu Loo Loo and the tribe.... oh yeah, Mia too!

COWBOY BOB AND HIS DALE!!!!

Well.... what do we have here??? It's a cowboy.... but he looks like my hooman mommy's grandson Isaac! Yep, that's right all of you buck-a-roos..... it is that time of the year when all kids and some adults dress-up funny..... Isaac and his Dale Daisy are having a fun time playing cowboys... practicing for the big night!!!

While we were there mommy got to play with Isaac, Jonah, and cousin Mia. She came home ALL SMILES!!! Funny how that happens.... grand mommies and grand aunties.....

We went over to Tucson to deliver some of the puppies to their new forever homes....and we also delivered "meatball aka meaty B" to mommies son Gabriel. Apparently Gabriel and his cute "girl" Lindsey just lost their cat "Mittens" to some kind of Wile Coyote recently and they have been very sad! Sooooo......... mommy has another "Grand Dawg!!!"

Look how cute Meaty-B is.... he smiled for the camera.... We are so excited to have him as an addition to our Tenkiller family.

Well mommy has to clean the backyard now so I think I'm going to go out and help her. We have more things to write about tomorrow. I hear "rumors" that Yalo is going to a new home tomorrow..... I'm sure the story tomorrow will be full of pictures.... and tears!

UPDATE WITH THE TENKILLERS!!!!

Good gracious alive!!! We have been Missing In Action for some time!!! Needless to say, you don't want to know what we've been up to.... well, okay.... we have been busy with puppies and visitors.... We now have cousin Vickie and her baby Mia living with us. Here are some pictures of Holly Dale sharing a few "treats" with Mia. We also had a litter of Puppies!!! Toby, Greta's grand daughter had 13 puppies. Whew is all I can say.... heheheehe.... better her than me!!! Thought I'd share a few pictures of all of our puppies and Mia.... my hooman mommy's grand neice.... Lots of "grands" around here. Here are pictures of Holly Dale and Mia having a midnight treat of chips and dip! Amazing how us big ol' dogs are so gentle with these little babies. I just don't understand why people think we are dangerous or "something" around the little ones .... what is with that anyway??? Mommy says she promises to start dog blogging again now that all of the babies are almost sold... well, except for Mia! Hey.... that baby ain't goin' nowhere!!!

Well, guess we'll stop here for now.... more very soon.... like tomorrow or something.... right MOM??????

OUR FIRST AWARD

Blu Loo Loo here!!!! WooHoo..... We won the "Cool Dog Site of The Day Award" for 2009. You can read about it on our last blog under the comments. My silly Hooman Mommy has tried to copy and paste several times to no avail.... Too bad because it is a really pretty award!!!

Bet you been wondering what's going

on at the Tenkiller Kennel. Well, first Mommy took a trip to Tucson, AZ. Yep, she came home with pictures of our new Hooman

Grandbaby named Jonah. We can't wait to get our tongues on him.

Heheheehe..... You know how that just drives new pawrents nutso!!!! Here is a really cute picture of him.

Mommy then took a trip to what she calls the "top of the mountain." Just what is that anyways??? She took Toby up to a "baby-making meeting" whatever that is!! Toby is Greta's

grand-daughter. She is sooooo pretty!!! And here is a picture of Mr. Handsome himself....

And then she came home with a baby puppy!!!! Good grief!!! She told all of us that he is going to be our new stud muffin. I'm not quite sure what that is, but it must be good. His n

ame is "Waylon." Holly thinks it is her baby now!!! She is

one of the Auntie's to this little guy. Well, I guess that's all from here.... NO WAIT!!! Did I happen to mention that Mommy fell down ONE step and broke her left foot?? Yep, that's right!!! You should see how funny she looks.... awwwh there are NO pictures of this one.... she refuses to let you see.... Heheheehe..... just call her chicken!

More soon my friends,

Calvin's Visit

Good morning to all of you.  Today I want to share about Calvin and his visit to the Tenkiller Kennel.  Calvin is one of my son's that now lives in San Diego, CA  wherever that is!!??  His Hoomans took a vacation in the intersting state of NM.... Mommy says that's where we live.... Anyway, we boarded Calvin while they were vacationing....  NOTE how we all have to get in line for Mommy's love, attention, and lap!!!  Mommy says it's a lot like the "Snoopy" story where Snoopy went back to the kennel he was born at for a visit!  Mommy was giggling about Calvin's new pawrents.  When they first came to get Calvin.... well they showed-up in a small, cute, sporty car!!!  WOW is what Mommy thought to herself.... I know because I can read my Mommy's MIND!!!  Especially when she is mad at me.... teehee.  She wondered how long that was going to last.  Well, now Calvin has his very own SUV.  I know it's Calvins because he has his very own license plate that says Kalzkr..... too funny!!!!  

We had the best visit.  I thought that I'd show you a few pictures of how big my son is..... AND he thinks that he is a lap dog..... He is even doing the "Snoopy" pose!!!  

Well its time for my "noonish" nap.  Bark at all of you again soon.

EMMETT AND DIXIE COME FOR A VISIT!!!

Good morning everyone!!!  Apache here.  Sorry about the NO POSTING for sooooo long.  I won't even begin to detail the "tales" of the ongoing saga of the Tenkiller Airedales.  Instead, I thought that I'd begin to daily share with all of you about some of our most recent Airedalian Visitations.  Today I'd like to start with a couple of my children.... yep, that would be Emmett and Dixie.  Their Hooman Mommy Sue brought them for a quick visit a couple of weeks ago.  Look how cute they are!!!  Emmett (Blue Collar) is one of my sons from my 2007 Litter.  His daddy was a real cutie named Black Magic.  Emmett is such a big boy.  Dixie (Red Collar) is one of my girls from my 2008 litter.  Her daddy is Yalo, of course!!!!!

This is a cute picture of Sue and Robin.  They are busy discussing how cute the Black Dales .... ummm, my babies are.   The REAL MOMMY (Me Apache) .... well, I'm on the other side of the door.... My kids smell and hear me and are waiting to be let in!!!!  What's taking them so long to open the door????

Now here is a funny story.  Yesterday my Hooman Mommy, Aunt Judi, and Sister Robin were up in Silver City (about 58 miles north of Deming).  They were celebrating Sister Robin's Birthday.  They were driving down the Highway passing Mis Amigos Pet Care Center and saw two black dogs out playing in the DOG yard.  Mommy yelled "it's Emmett and Dixie," and Aunt Judi immediately pulled over and headed back to see the kids.  So there they were.... Mommy, Aunt Judi, and Sister at the fence playing with Emmett and Dixie when this lady came running up behind them yelling, " hey!  What are you doing with my dogs?"  It was Sue ... Emmett and Dixie's mom!  Mommy turned around and said, "it's us Sue!"   I understand that there was a lot of hugging, giggling, barking, and laughing after that.  

Is somebody out their giggling in dogland sing  that silly song.... something about a small world????  

Slurps to all of ya.... more soon

THE DOG PARK!!!

Greetings to one and all!!!  Apache Tears here.  My Hooman Mommy has been very sick and I've had no one to type for me!!!  I would like to apologize for my "Hooman" mommy.  Things here at the Tenkiller Airedale Kennel have been up in the "air" since before Christmas.  Well, two months later we are finally getting back on track.... sort of like the train on the tracks.....  We are back.... and running.  Speaking of running, we have a new activity here at our Kennel.  Mommy and Aunt Judi are now taking all of us to the DOG PARK at least twice a week now.  Talk about fun!!!!  We took a lot of pictures a few days ago and I thought I would share a few with all of you.  Besides, I wanted to introduce to you..... Gretta's Babe Gucci.  I thought this was the best picture of her peeking around the tree at the park... she does look a lot like her mommy.

This next picture is of the "pack" with the babes..... look how big they are gett

ing!!!  We now have only 3 males (black/tan) left.  That would be Baxter, Axel, and Reggie.  We also have one female (black/tan) left, Brooks.  

Here is a picture of me running in the wind.  I think I look pretty darn cute here!!!!!  In the next few days I'll try to up-date all of you on what is going on around here.  I sure have missed all of you.   Let us hear from all of you!!!  How are things going with all of you out there is dogdom??
