What I want to say to you before 2008 past away

As I've said many times before, I have lived for more than half my life. I have found that the best parts of my life have been since I started breeding dogs. Dogs have brought many good friends into my life. When I began to write my "diary" onto this blog, I was further amazed that I couldn't think of any other periods in my life, which have been better.

I started my blog in June. Today, my diary is only 167 posts long. Everyday, my blog has brought good things beyond explanation into my life. It's amazing that the word "hi" or a comment of few words from friends from all over the world, speaking in different languages, are what makes me open up my blog every morning. You are all so influential to my life.

Of course, this year that is about to past, I've met many upsets, which is a norm in life. I've experience betrayal from someone not so far away. Some people who I've helped and hoped for a life-long friendship. Of course, life isn't always as hoped. I may not deserve only the good things. So "betrayal" "insults" "accusations" entered my life, in this year of 2008.

But all of these upsets hardly matter when compared to other period of this year when I've faced great obstacles, which has created much misery for my family and I (for example when a breeder stole the picture of my Baron) some of my friends, whom I've never met in person, never knew much of their background, except through friendly email communication, devoted themselves in helping to solve these problems. Some of them tried to get involved in legal terms to try to help me through the crisis. Some send me messages, which are like a big napkin for me to wipe my tears and pull my chin up. Even my daughter, who studies in New York, when she faced obstacles, some of my friends would try to help as if she's one of their own. These friendships tell me that they are valuable, more worthy of remembering than all the bad things I faced.

Unbelievable that these friendships, and any other, which I have not been able to mention, were all possible because of dogs!!!

All my friends, whom I may not all name, but I know you know I'm referring to you, please know that if there's any words more powerful than thank you and appreciation, please know that I offer them to you countless times.

The things I want to wish for you all are:

May your troubles be less

your blessings be more

and nothing but happiness

come through your door

in the year 2009

But at the same time, we all know that 2009 will be a year of challenge. Probably more so than any other year in our lifetime. I would like to say to you all, my derest friends, and to myself:

We must live with what we have

Not what we dream

And make the best of that we have

Below are the pictures of my family and I, which were taken recently, to present to you all as a greeting from our family.

Chocolate Chihuahua!!

Look what Santa brought me!!! A chocolate Chihuahua!!! Sent to me ,on Boxing Day,from Roxana,Switzerland. Thank you.

More ThanOng

Skyler sent me more pictures of ThanOng. He said that ThanOng was really in 'Christmas spirit' because there was so much food around! Yes, I believes he loves that!! 

Skyler also bought him a shirt for Christmas, but it was too small, so he will have to take ThanOng to the store tomorrow to get another size! Skyler said the outfit is really funny: it is a reindeer costume with antlers that have lights on them! I can't wait to see ThanOng in it. It must be hilarious!! An ugly pug as a reindeer!!! LOL 

So now, just enjoy pictures of Thanong celebrating Christmas in Chicago !!

Than-Ong is having Christmas Greeting in Chicago!!

As I'd once reported that when Saiyai came back home in Thailand during Christmas time,she sent Than-Ong to stay with Skyler's family in Chicago. It's so nice and kind of Skyler's family to recived Than-Ong under thier wings in thier incredible busy times!!!!

Skyler took some pictures of Than-Ong with him and his family on Christmas Eve day and sent to me.

He said The first pic is his parents with Than-Ong and his grandpa's dog, Mandy. Everyone in Skyler's family has dogs. Mandy and Ong have been getting along well, except when there is food around! Yes, we know Ong! Skyler also said that both of his parents thinks he is hilarious because he is so obsessed with food, and they love having him around because he cheers everyone up.

Skyler kindly attached another picture with himself and Ong, right after Than-Ong arrived. He ran outside without his jacket the first time because he didn't know what snow was! Now he goes out every time with a jacket, and sometimes 2 jackets!!!

Skyler said he has some more pictures of Than-Ong in the snow, but he can't get them off of the camera. So..hope one day you can do it,Skyler.

Thank you so much for the kindness of Skyler's family. We know Than-Ong is enjoying his Christmas greeting in Chicago!!!!

Dear Santa

Here's a Christmas wish,to make my Christmas Glow.
All I'd like for Christmas is simply Best In Show.
If that's too much,dear Santa,then my heart would loop-de-loop,
If you'd see fit to give me a placing in the Group.
In fact.I'd be quite satisfied,and not show too much greed,
If you'd be kind and generous,and give me Best of Breed.
Dear Santa, I'd be merry and really feel quite rich,
If you'd arranged a gift for me-Winners Dog or Bitch!
But I'd be joyful,Santa, and I'd dance the highland Fling!!!
If my pup would just be happy and behave in the ring!!!

Baron and Anton - 1st place of 2008

I would like to announce to all my beloved friends, a news that many of you already know, that Baron (Am.Th.Ch Marlisa's Dancin Away Baron) and Anton have been awarded as Thailand's no.1 smooth-coat chihuahua and cavalier king charles of 2008, respectively.

After Baron has just finished his American Championship in February at Westminster, Baron flew in from Pensylvania with me, along with Tommy, just last March. Baron showed limitedly between early April to early November. Within this limited time, and among chihuahua champions from other countries, Baron won by a country mile. Therefore, he was awarded as the no.1 of Thailand, leaving behind a large gap between him and the no.2.

Anton, a black-tan cavalier king charles from Hungary had few competitors in Thailand. He finished his Thai championship very quickly and showed rarely after that. Everytime he showed he stood out. With his beautiful coat, cheerful eyes, outstanding movement, and perfect body. He was awarded Thailand's no.1 cavalier king charles.

Thank you to all judges for seeing the talent within Baron and Anton.

Thank you to the great fan club of Baron and Anton, for supporting our handsome boys, all these time.

Please read the number one page of saiyaikennel for more info on these two and other number ones of saiyaikennel.

"Cash" is on the calender

Am.Th.Ch.Fandango Wheel of Fortune "Cash" is on the calender 2009 of the chihuahua club of Thailand.

I swear!!!!

I swear i'm not too fat. My arms are not too big. It's Bouquet,who is too small herself!!!

Bouquet is a daughter of Brooke and Donut. Bouquet is 8 months old now with only 0.8 kgs weight. Holding Bouquet is like handling a small pack of cotton bud.

Bouquet is tiny but beauty and healthy. She likes running shasing her mom and her sister(Orchid).

Again,please believe that I'm not too big.Blame her,for being too small.
