Christmas 

DateThursday, December 25, 2025 at 5:51PM

Here is the gallery.

This is Winston and Hazel playing up a storm.

Kitty, Jim and Derek wanted to wish everyone at Talemaker a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year. 

Merry Christmas, Nathan and Darlah!

Chester is doing amazing, growing like crazy and having a blast with the whole family. Here is his first time in the snow, his Christmas Eve bath, and a pose in front of the tree. He is such a blessing to our family.

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and wish you all the best in the New Year!

Blessings.

Chester and the MacDonald family

The dogs here are having a great time. Nathan made chicken and fed them warm dinner of freshly cooked chicken and steak for those that can't have chicken. They all ate it with gusto.

There has been a tremendous amount of play.

I added 2 christmas photos to the blog that we received. Hope you enjoy!!

Hmm…considering if I would say I can’t have chicken so I would get steak instead🤔 🤣

It is always so much fun to know that our pups are having such a great time! Thank you.

PS I am not sure if the gallery linked yesterday.

We listen to owners and if they say they can't have chicken, or beef or... we don't but you should see the dogs looks when someone else is having something different than them.

I swear they are saying it is NOT fair!
