“This little guy’s full name is “Rocco, ‘Mud on the tires’, Balbones”, but around here, we just call him Rocco. We named him after Rocky Balboa, my favorite movie character, and ‘Mud on the tires’ is actually his CKC registered name, given to him by the Breeder.
Rocco is our curious, 15-week old, brindle, Boxer pup. He loves to make new friends and is always up for a playful romp in the backyard. Although he’s full of bouncing-baby-boy energy, he’ll never turn down an opportunity for a snuggle, and at night, he’s happier than a pig in mud, if he has his favorite toy bunny next to him as he sleeps. Rocco is slowly getting used to his crate but when he’s roaming around, he can often be seen with his chewy toys, attempting to catch his own tail, or trying to figure out how to play with our cat, Luna, without scaring her off. He’s a joy, and our first Boxer, so we’re excited to show him off! We have started puppy classes, where he’s popular with the ladies!! If you see us in dog parks around Ottawa, don’t be shy, we’d love to meet you and your doggy!” – Rocco’s human, Anat.

“This is my new puppy Basil. He is a Schnorkie (yorkie + mini schnauzer). He is the most adorable little guy. He is 9 weeks old now and loves to snuggle on people’s laps. He enjoys his walks and meeting new friends. I have attached some pictures of him trying on some new outfits. He actually loves to try on different clothes.” – Basil’s mom, Bonnie.

“We got Popeye (a pomeranian) after we lost our youngest dog, at five years old, to hemolytic anemia, a very fast moving blood disorder. We were devastated and in a state of shock after losing our baby to this horrible disorder. It took a matter of days, and he was gone. Our hearts were totally broken. Our two older dogs were moping around and barely eating, and the house lacked any life. After only a couple of weeks, we started searching for a puppy to help heal our broken hearts. Popeye did that and more. Although he will never replace the dog we lost, he has brought life back into the house again. Although it took time, our two other dogs accepted him as part of the family, and now get along quite well. He is a pleasure, well behaved and a comfort to us. He is quite active, but yet always has time for a cuddle. We are totally in love with him.” – Popeye’s mom, Eileen.
