Holidays are so much fun

The Hutchins' family celebrated Thanksgiving over a two day period. On day one (Thursday) I was introduced to many of the family members. On Friday, I met my cousing Tonka, she's the blue heeler on Alex's lap. I also met Alex and Sydney. You can see from the photo Syd is generous with treats, and you know from earlier posts how we like our treats. This being spoiled business is a ton of fun. Karen started me on this habit and the Hutchins are just continuing on a good tradition. They are a family all about making the animals happy. Well you know, if the animal is happy it makes life much more pleasurable for the humans!
So now that Syd and Alex have visited they talked mom into "putting up the tree". I wasn't quite sure what that was all about, being that I'm still a pup, I have to learn these things. I'm not quite sure what the tree is all about yet, but there is this piece of fabric that is shiny and gold and mom has it spread out on the floor. I think it looks like a fun toy so I try to pull on it and this big green object comes after me every time. Then I hear mom say "Jack, leave the skirt alone." I'm thinking, What is a skirt?
Syd and Alex are a lot of fun. Syd had me outside and couldn't see me in the dark. Alex tried to tell him I wear a night light but I don't think believed her.
I hope you had as much fun during this long weekend as I have had. Time with the family is the greatest!!!
Talk to you soon!

Happy Thanksgiving


Jack, Chilly and I have had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Today I am thankful for having a playful little brother and an older sister that keeps me straight. This is Chilly's first Thanksgiving with the Hutchins clan and Jack's first Thanksgiving ever. I think all around it was a wonderful day.
Jack met Nakita today and that introduction went well. Jack was also introduced to our human sisters, Brittany and Chanel and was visited by Mistie and Brandon. Tomorrow Jack will meet our cousin Tonka and human family members Alex and Sydney. I know he'll steal their hearts like he has the rest of the family.
Pictured here are all three of us after our Thanksgiving nap. We had a great day and we have much to be thankful for, especially the volunteers that were involved in saving our lives and providing us with a good home and great food and wonderful treats on holidays like today.
Hope you and yours had a wonderful Thanksgiving and didn't eat too much.

All is well in our house


Jack and Xander met today!
On a beautiful fall morning in sunny North Carolina Xander and Jack were introduced. They seem to like each other.
Jack is settling into his new home quite nicely.
Today we are thankful for having a large yard to play in.

Have we mentioned we like treats




It may be time to introduce Jack. We'll tell you about him and offer our daily thanks all at once.


Jack is our new baby brother. At five months old he came to our family from St. Louis, Missouri.


We anticipated his arrival for a couple of weeks and we are not disappointed. Mom would change our blog name to Deuce, Chilly and Jack but she doesn't know how. Anyway, you'll see more stories about Jack in the days, weeks and months to come. Its a standing family joke that mom has more pictures of her frenchies than of her daughters, but that is okay. Jack is a ham when it comes to the camera so we are certain you'll see alot of him




Chilly and I are still trying to decide if mom's heart and lap are big enough for three of us. Jack doesn't climb into mom's lap yet, but I see he wants to. He's given mom a kiss and you should have heard her squeel...I don't quite understand all of that excitement.




Today we are thankful for our treats. Chilly can't seem to get enough, she goes into Jack's crate when she thinks no one is watching to see if she can find left overs.

Giving Thanks

Giving thanks today for a great lady in St. Louis. She ok'd our family to have this little brother mom calls Captain Jack. Jack introduced us to deer antlers. Pretty cool treat as far as we're concerned and mom says dad can figure out how to bring some home while he's hunting in the woods.

Today we're also thankful for the sunshine. Our yard has dried up enough that Chilly is comfortable leaving the front porch again. Believe me this is a good thing.

Thanksgiving is still over a week away, so stay tuned to hear other things we are thankful for and the adventures with our new kid brother should be entertaining.

Deuce and Chilly

Jack arrived



Jack has arrived. Believe it or not mom is covered in Frenchies.
This other picture is of Jack playing with Chilly's toy. Chilly didn't mind sharing. Jack came with a pack of toys too, that he is sharing with us.
Having a baby brother is soooo much fun.

Today we're thankful

Today Chilly and I are thankful for the little bit of sunshine that was present today. Chilly isn't too fond of the rain and she was glad to be under cover to go potty.

Today's thanks

Today we are thankful for dog toys, bones, knots, chewies and treats. We like treats when we go in the crate, we like treats when we do something good, we like treats even if we're naughty.

We like to chill out at the end of the day with our nylabones.

We're thankful for having a warm home and someone to give us those great treats.

Thanks - a time for giving thanks.

Let's see how many people can do this. Every day from now until Thanksgiving, think of one thing that you are thankful for and post it as your status. "Today I am thankful for..." The longer you do it, the harder it gets! Now if you think you can do it then repost this message as your status to invite others to take the challenge, then post what YOU are thankful for today!

Feel free to post your comments and we'll try to come back every day, but at least once a week and offer our thanks.

We are thankful to the thousands of volunteers that give heart, blood, sweat and tears to save animals of all kinds. A special note to the folks at French Bulldog Rescue, Croatan Cat Sanctuary and Rescue, Southern Siberian Rescue, Hero Wagon Train, NC St. Bernard Rescue, Petfinder.com maker, Dr. Sara!!!
