Puppy New Year

Oh, what a wonderful Christmas and New Year we had 🤍

Sweet, goofy Penelope has been the most incredible addition to our family, and she fit in as if she had always been here. From the moment she arrived, our home felt whole again.

And those little devil brows?! I’m completely obsessed. The cutest beauty marks I’ve ever seen, full of personality and mischief, and somehow capable of stealing my heart over and over again.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to Jen of Pinnacle Pet Transport, who hand-delivered my baby girl just before Christmas and navigated flight redirects, layovers, and delays with care and professionalism. And to Tanya of NW Frenchies—thank you for trusting me with this sweet girl and for giving me the privilege of being a puppy mama again.

I would absolutely work with both of these women again and recommend them for their integrity, consistency, and care in every step of the process.

Thank you so much, ladies!

After losing both of our old boys in 2025, our home was missing something we couldn’t quite put into words. It turns out, the missing ingredient was a Frenchie. Penelope has helped us heal in ways I didn’t expect. She’s bringing laughter, routine, and the familiar kind of love only a Frenchie can give.

So far, Ms. P is the perfect blend of our past pups. She has Shad’s clumsy-cutie charm and Joe Joe’s full-speed zoomies. She’s LOUD, she talks back, and honestly? I love it. She’s playful, endlessly snuggly, and an absolute dream fit for our household.

We are completely smitten.

Now that she’s settled in, the next steps begin. We’re sending in her genetic testing and (not so patiently) waiting for her results as we thoughtfully plan her future. This journey is just getting started, and we’re so grateful to be on it with her.
