Default My Mom's other babies....so cute!

As many of you now know my Mom (toyvlle) shows Chihuahuas and she does very well! These are some of her babies at the moment. We had so much fun yesterday photographing them. I had only brought one light set up with me and so we hope to do it again sometime soon with both of my lights set up next time.

I must admit babies are much easier then puppies...It was challenging to say the least but oh worth it and lots of fun!


Chihuahua Puppy

Best in show!

Best in Breed!

I have 2 chihuahaus both long haired and they refuse point blank to pose for the camera. Always look away at the crucial moment

love the pics and the dogs present themselves so well.

Well done Michelle, and well done Michelle's mum, your work is always presented to the highest standards and nothing changes with these cute little puppies.
Outstanding work, blue ribands all around

Glad I could teach you something today. Yes they come in short coats and long coats. Both are cute. Thank you Hayward!

Keep trying I am sure it will work out sooner or later. They are challenging for sure. It took a few of us to make sure they were safe and to try to get them to look my way. Thank you very much.

Ohhh!!! I'm in love. You did well Michelle, great captures. The first one melts my heart the most, you managed to capture that real puppy cheeky look, not just a good dog look, more of a, What mischief can I get into ? look.

Yep, too young to know the cookie bribe yet. I was very lucky to get to play with them. Thank you!

You are right, she has sweet mischief written all over her! My Mom was right out of camera view ready to catch her if she suddenly tried to be brave and fly. They were a handful but it was so much fun. Thank you Michele.

My daughters were in heaven that Grandma let these darlings out to play. As was I obviously. I wish they could stay this way! Thank you for the kind comments.
