Hi everyone,
Thought I would say hello and let you know that all is well in Seattle.
I had a VERY successful total hip replacement on April 27th.
It seems that this is the only surgery I will need as of now. 
I'm doing so well and just LOVE Seattle.

I plan to go to Louisiana for a visit sometime around Christmas. 
I'm very anxious to see everyone and also see Vicky's new puppies
 that will be leaving around that time .
  I've already told her that I am coming to play with them before they leave. 

I often think about my baby Bichons & all of you who are caring for them.
 Please let me know how you are doing!!
I would love pictures, too!! 
Donna

Now Happily Owned and Lovingly Operated by

With a VERY heavy heart, I have moved to Seattle. 
My youngest son & his family live here. 
I need several Orthapedic surgeries & they will care for me while I'm recovering. 
My plans are to make this a permanent move.  

I have to thank everyone that I have met through this business. 
"Dog people" are SPECIAL people. 
I am so blessed to have met all of you.  You have truly enriched my life!! 
  Please don't hesitate to call for help with any problems or just to chat.  If you want my number, please email Vicky for it.
I will also send everyone who has bought a Bichon from me my new email address.

Lastly, but certainly not least, I want to thank all of my helpers, Marlene, Makayla, Elaine & Becky. 
With out their help & their love for Bichons, I would not have been able to do this work. 
They spoiled them, loved them & cared for them like they were their own children.  What more could I ask for.

THANKS AGAIN TO EVERYONE, I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU!!!

Donna
              
I HAVE LEFT SOUTHERN PAWS BICHONS

 A WONFERFUL Breeder Friend, Vicky Richard, from Lake Charles,  
   has purchased this website
along with purchasing my precious Samba, Claude, Lilah, Rae Rae & Heidi from me. 
They are all wonderful Bichons!!
   She is very reputable,
very caring & takes care of her babies like we did.
I will be helping her for a couple of months during the transition..
You will get a WONDERFUL puppy from her. 
I would not have allowed anyone to take the Southern Paws name,
unless I was completely certain that they would operate as we have through the years with integrity & love.

A $200.00 deposit will hold a puppy for you.
