02/03/08 - Well the last month has just flown by! The puppies are no longer quiet and easy! they are playful, eating lots and what goes in must come out! They are all absolutly adorable - very confident, playful and affectionate puppies. We are loving every minute of having them. We are lucky if we manage to get into their room without a couple of them sneaking through the gate and running off to explore our kitchen and chase our big dogs! The puppies are getting lots of socialisation with friends & relatives calling round to oohh and aaahh at them! I am trying to keep the website as updated as i can but i am very busy looking after and playing with the little bundles of joy! We are very lucky to have such wonderful puppies - we completely adore them all.
04/02/08 - Both Rizzo and the puppies are all doing well. The puppies are getting bigger and cuter all the time! Their eyes have just started to open and wow! what a difference it makes. They are all up on their legs walking about and flopping over! They each have their own unique litter characters and we are having such fun watching them.
22/01/08 Rizzo has given birth to 8 beautiful puppies. Please see the Puppy Info , Puppy Videos and Puppy Photos pages for more info. Both Mum and babies are doing very well.
11/01/08 - Rizzo is still doing great and doesnt appear to be too uncomfortable with her belly full of puppies! We can now feel the puppies moving and kicking by putting our hands on Rizzos tummy.
06/01/08 Everything is going well with Rizzo and the pregnancy. She is getting bigger and bigger every day! She seems very well in herself and has got a good appetite! Here is a photo of her ever expanding belly!

27.12.07 - We hope that all our friends and Mini Aussie fans have had a lovely Christmas and we wish you all a very Happy New Year & 2008!
