The good news is that Pom Pom has found a new home and will be going there next weekend. We think she will do great and have a super life.
The bad news, last Thursday we took Carmen to the vet who determined we needed a C-section for various reasons. Sadly the entire litter was lost, all three beautiful pups. It was heartbreaking.
We will repeat the breeding on Carmen's next cycle with the input of a reproduction vet and a new general vet.

Here she is, Pom Pom!!
Pom Pom had yet another bath and allowed us to blow dry her, on low, but what a leap of trust for her. She also allowed me to trim her toenails with the snippers.
She is clean!! And starting to get a waist. All that bloat is gone. We just need to work on the fat now. 
What a beautiful face. We're going to work on her coat and get her in condition and are already getting some interest in her. If you are interested in Pom Pom please let me know. She is spayed, AKC registered, microchipped, up to date on shots and rabies as well as heartworm preventative. D'Azul Siberians

Pupdate on Pom Pom
We've had her at the vet and she is heartworm negative, Lyme negative and Ehrlichia negative. A true miracle. She is now up to date on her boosters and has had a rabies vaccine. She is on our regular heartworm preventation rotation. She is eating all her meals and her system has become normal. Pom Pom is now crate trained. That was a big thing. She had been used to a crate as a little puppy here but it seemed that had not been reinforced. She walks well on a leash and Lisa took her to Watkins Mill State Park yesterday for a 3-1/2 mile hike around the pond. Pom Pom loved it. We are working on her coat and her feet. Her teeth are not too bad and will clean up nicely with a turkey neck or two. Her new papers have been requested from the AKC. We have gone ahead and put her on our available page at the website. This is truly a lovely dog who likes nothing better than to cuddle with people.

We are heartbroken
Sorry its been so long, but we've been busy working on our specialty and sometimes life just gets in the way.
Early last week we were contacted by someone who had purchased a puppy three years ago and had to "get rid of her." Just not sure exactly what the reasons were, but they had wanted to send her back last fall. After we made arrangements to pick her up, they changed their minds because they "loved her". We got her back Saturday, 05/16/09. Apparently they did not love her much because she was crawling with fleas and ticks. We took care of that immediately. She is very fat but that is easy to fix with proper nutrition and good exercise. Her feet have been neglected to the extent that we will need to sedate her in order to care for them. She looks so old, far older than her sisters and brothers. She is only three and looks nine or ten. Today she is going to the vet to for heartworm check. We are praying for a negative result.
We checked out this home thoroughly, including a home visit, reference checks and all. It all looked good and they were going to show the dog in 4H events and junior showmanship. Who could have known they would neglect this dog to such an extent.
Here are some pictures of D'Azul's Firefly. We took these Saturday late afternoon before we bathed her. We have changed her call name back to her puppy name of Pom Pom as we will never call her the name they gave her. We want her to think of when she was happy, not the bad time when she was with the other people.
We are heartbroken and sick that one of our kids was mistreated in this manner. The tears just won't stop.

Pictures of Dodge
We went to the Central Indiana Siberian Husky Club Specialty this last weekend and took Dodge with us. He got to meet his dad and his older 1/2 brother. He was a very well behaved puppy and was very popular. Here are some pictures of Dodge at the show.
Looking around.
Yup, I think I see something.
I am so very cute!!
And this is my cutest face of all.
