Crazy Little Dogs

Three years ago I decided it was time to get another dog. The actual decision was made when my husband bought himself a Harley. I know, not a good decision to get a pet, but at the time I was going to be home bound from surgery and since I wasn't going to be hopping on the harley I decided I needed a companion.


I had some criteria - hypo allergenic, small and easily transportable, but I have to admit, my biggest goal was to find the dog that would embarrass 'daddy' when we showed up at harley runs. I pictured a little bundle happily bounding off to greet my husband, not deterred from his black leather from head to toe, only focused on "pick me up".... You get the picture. I remember him saying "you wouldn't dare".... or something to that effect, so off I went in search of the perfect new child.


I should insert here, that I am crazy about animals and spent many years on farms raising animals of all kinds. I fully intended on giving this new little member the best possible home so I knew what i was getting into in the care department.


Just about that time there was a commercial running with a Chinese Crested and of course there was the ugliest dog in the world competitions which the Crested is a frequent winner. After doing some research I decided "that's the dog for me!" Hypoallergenic, small, friendly and hopefully hairless. Perfection in a package!


That is how we can to be the parents of "Cee Cee La Rue" our first Crested. Two years later we decided CC needed a companion and instead of one more little female, we came home with two big males. Not sure what happened with that master plan, but now we have the three charmers, CC, Oz and Willie - all crazy little dogs.
