Silkens are very social and love to play and cuddle with each other.  That's why you can't ever have just one!

While this may look rough, Silkens often play "bunny," or tag, with most of them taking turns and very much enjoying the game.

The Three Siblings, Lex, Libra, and Licorice, are having the time of their lives on their ranch in Texas.  Everyday they get to run and play with each other to their heart's content! I feel so fortunate to be able to keep each one of these very special pups.

Katarina dug herself a little hole and then layed in it.

A few words about Katarina:

Don't let her size fool you, from the second Katarina arrived at our house she let everyone know who was in charge! She's full of energy and fire and not a day goes by that she doesn't make sure we know it.  Her favorite past time is catching the flying bugs that make their way inside, and for that I am grateful as she's much better at it than I am.  But she's also sweet and cuddly and if there ever was a perfect lap-sized Silken, Katarina is it.  We have enjoyed immensely taking her to various race meets, field trials, and shows, and look forward to many more years of the same.   I owe many thanks to Mike and Kathy Leach of Velichestvo Silken Windhounds for letting Katarina come to live with us .

Sabe Oct 2011

A few words about Sabe:

Sabe is probably the best behaved puppy I have ever had the pleasure of sharing my life with.  I could take him anywhere and he'd find a place to lay down and nap for the entire day.  At the end of the day I'd say, "let's go Sabe," and he'd lift his handsome face up, look at me and say, "ok Mom!"  He's also been incredibly easy to train, as he's very low key, takes everything in stride, and doesn't get upset about the little things.  In addition to being easy-going, he's very cuddly, and loves to snuggle after greeting me enthusiastically at the door when I get home from work.  After that he's off to the backyard to hunt down that ever elusive bunny.  I am eternally grateful to Kent Jones and Jay Cuskar of Kumbaya Silken Windhounds for letting him come live here.

Chryssy is way too much of a lady to be bothered by all the drama going on behind her.

A few words about Chryssy:

Chryssy is the consumate companion dog.  She is all about the love and snuggling and more than anything wants to be someone's "one and only."  We found this perfect home for Chryssy with Denise Carvalho, in Louisana, where Chryssy is currently living like the true princess that she is.
