rocky del rio travel

Rocky Del Rio has his bag packed and he’s leaving the summer heat of south Florida to go live in the far cool northwest at the summer house…wander in the forest and watch the deer in the cool evening air for a few months

Hi,
Hope all is well in the north!
Luka Del Rio and Abbagail Del Rio are doing well. Wishing the cooler weather would return. The dogs loved the cold!

Luka Del Rio                                                 Abbagail Del Rio

Happy December!
Here are a couple of photos of the dogs.
Abbagail Del Rio turned two on December 8! We are so proud of our little girl! (She’s not so little anymore – weighs almost as much as Luka Del Rio and is all muscle!!)

 

Luka had a rough time when I was in the hospital. I guess he paced all night and wouldn’t sleep. He is so sensitive about everything so I just asked my husband to make sure he had some extra love. Sometimes that is all it takes for him; just a little extra attention. Abby is a kind of go-with-the-flow kind of girl, and although she missed me, it was not quite so traumatic for her. I am back home recovering now, but cannot walk the dogs for a few weeks, which means probably after the new year some time. The dogs have been so good about it all, and we toss the ball and play find it games every day when I can. Both are getting plenty of time to lay with me, keep me warm and comfortable, and give me lots of kisses daily. Life is good!

 

That is about all for now. Hoping all is well in the north!

Atanas Del Rio and best friend

Good evening Mr. Bill. We wanted to contact you and give you an update on our little man! Well, he isn't so little anymore! Atanas Del Rio recently had his 1st birthday on November 7th. He is still our oldest sons sleeping pal. 

It is amazing how intelligent he is. Almost as if he knows what we are thinking before we even think it! Lol. Atanas is also very protective over Angel and our children. He has really started to come into his self here lately. So, from our family to yours, thank you very much for our wonderful addition to our family. And Merry Christmas.

Sheba Khloe Del Rio

Luka Del Rio                                        Abbagail Del Rio

Hi,
Hope all is well in the north!
Luka Del Rio has been doing well. I am thankful his health crisis is behind us. His energy level has returned and then some! What a pistol he can be some days!! Thank goodness he has a good friend in the neighbor’s dog, so he can run and burn off some of that energy!!
Little Miss Abbagail Del Rio is such a sweetheart! She is my lap dog, and loves to be close. I cannot go anywhere without her! She does really well off leash and stays right by my side always.  …..We are camping again . . . dogs are loving the cooler weather again and the opportunity to do some walking someplace other than our neighborhood. Thankfully we don’t have to deal with a hurricane this time around!
Glad hurricane season will finally be behind us soon. Hopefully a few good months of weather ahead.
Take care,
Wendy, Luka and Miss Abbagail

Rocky Del Rio

 

He is such a good doggie. So smart and handsome and loyal! And so photogenic!  …its Rocky Del Rio!

Rocky is a big hit with Kyla (2 1/2 years old)….constantly licking her…… I have her help me teach Rocky to fetch the ball and bring it back every morning before it gets too hot out…….she always holds the treats………it’s so cute…… she can hardly hold her hand flat for the treat to sit on…..it’s like a mini balancing act…
She insists on holding the leash when we take Rocky for walks.  She walks so slow that Rocky has to pull her along….. he’s never rough or has never pulled her over……he’d lick her to death if I let him!

Rocky still get compliments everyday on our walks!

I took him to the dog park the other morning…….. he checked out the other doggies while I sat at the picnic table with a few of the other dog owners……Rocky would always come running back to me to check that I was still there!!
He keeps a close eye on me!   He’s so good!

Brinkley Del Rio

As of a few days ago Brinkley is running alone full throttle for sheer joy of running. My other tervs did this but because they were adopted at about 2-3 years I never saw this develop. I was assuming she was just different about her lesser need to run. She looks more mature each day. From 3 weeks ago her puppy look gave way to young adult now. So elegant and angelic. She has chewed up my mattress and every pillow that I forget to move out of reach. Also in past week she comes into my bedroom twice and cried. When I got up she led me to her other sleeping area near kitchen where teapot was whistling that I couldnt hear. Could still be a coincidence or could be her warning me of the noise/something wrong. Time will tell but interesting in the meantime. …… marc

sheba del rio birthday

Hi Bill,
   We have reached a milestone with Sheba! She is ONE!!! (As close as we could estimate anyways) Her personality has been developing into such a sweet girl. She’s tremendously more affectionate than Khloé in the sense that she ALWAYS wants to snuggle and be literally “on top” of you.    She really enjoys where we live and both girls have several neighborhood friends that come over often (Skye is the Aussie seen in the pic of them all running) … There is another German Shepherd puppy named Bristol who is just a few months younger than Sheba. They wear each other out running, wrestling, and herding each other.

Physically Sheba is a little shorter than Khloé but she carries a lot more muscle and her hair is also thicker! She can keep up with Khloé in speed and wit. They are truly a beautiful sight when running at full speed. Together they sound like a heard of horses galloping!
Overall our family is doing wonderful. We are expecting a 3rd child in a May 2018 and I’m predicting Sheba to do just as well as Khloé did with Isabelle.
We hope you are well and love staying in touch… we keep up with the website often and have several friends on Facebook that have some of your pups! They feel like extended family – which is all due to the beautiful love of these Tervurnes!
Anyways, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHEBA!!!
Take care & God Bless!
Lara & Family

Just wanted to tell you what a great dog Rocky is. He’s so loyal, and smart, and loves my homemade liver treats! (reminds me, i need to go buy some more liver!)
I take him off leash in the backyard and next-door vacant lot, and throw the tennis ball. He’s keen to fetch and retrieve for a liver treat….. and boy is he quick!!
I’ve taught him to sit and stay, and come running to me when I call…. I do a little bit everyday, and he always has a big smile on his face! He’s so happy!

He’s resting under the kitchen table right now, chewing on a bully stick……special ordered online from Costco, as they were out of stock in the store.
He had a big chicken supper, then walk to Pier 81….. I think he’s just as tired as I am!! We’re up walking again @ 7:00 a.m.

my guys

here are some of my guys

Joanie Del Rio………….Joanie Del Rio enjoys her favorite resting place on top of the old bath tub…a very calm and sweet and elegant girl, low key but bright and alert and mature in behavior.

Biddie Del Rio……Biddie is all-around wonderful…gracious, gentle, clever, good-natured

Its Danny Del Rio!  Who wouldn’t recognize Danny with his movie star good looks and his magnificent and affectionate personality….Danny merits his own fan club and cadre of paparazzi!

Danny Del Rio……ready for his close-up Mr. DeMille

Judy Del Rio…..Judy is a little shy…coat like brushed velvet and silk…full of play and energy

Nicky Del Rio…..Nicky is our best kept secret…sort of a cross between Marlon Brando and Robert Mitchum in 1952…this fellow can stop traffic with a glance

hurricane irma

Luka Del Rio   and    Abbagail Del Rio  finding shelter from Hurricane Irma in the mountains

Some photos of our brief time in the mountains. Miss Abbagail Del Rio likes to have her picture taken even though she can be a bit lazy at times. Luka Del Rio does not like photos at all and usually is turned the other way. To get a good photo of both takes a lot of shots!!
Hope all has calmed down in your neck of the woods. We had lots of tree damage and lots of clean up. That is about it.

Rocky Del Rio

Rocky Del Rio

Rocky Del Rio is a little over one year old and starting to develop  his full adult appearance.   He is a magnificent yearling dog, tall, elegant, and a joy to be near.  He seems to have springs in his legs and he floats over the ground when he gallops.  He’s a sight to see.  Extremely gregarious and people oriented, very good natured and affectionate.  If he has any fault its that he still wants to climb into my lap and cuddle like he did when he was 3 months old…he’s getting too big for that now!

Its a good thing he belongs to my sister so I get to see him now and then.             B
