Happy Birthday!

Dante, along with his littermates, recently turned two. Pictured with two of his siblings in a group photo taken in October 2007, Dante is fourth from the left, held by owner Vickie. On the far left, held by Debby are sister Sadie and brother Fernando. Ginny, second from the right, is holding Moon. Julie is holding C’est La Vie and Avery.

“Kisses Of Fire”

Lay your head on my chest so you hear every beat of my heart
Now there’s nothing at all that can keep us apart
Touch my lips, close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Things that you do, and you know I’m crazy ’bout you
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire
When you sleep by my side I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it’s making me scared that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare fate and to me it’s new
Never before did you see me begging for more
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
(I’m at the point of no returning)
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
(Caught in a land-slide of emotions)
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions

    Very beautiful Lhasa Apsos!!
    I saw the Photos of Dante. He is very cute!
    Can I share this link to my friends in Japan?

    Sure, you can share. I would like to share the link to your blog here. Is that okay?
    I am reading a book called Falling Leaves, The Memoir of an Unwanted Chinese Daughter, by Adeline Yen Mah. Throughout the book she sprinkles her native language. For example… – a calligraphy figure – another calligraphy figure, yi qin yi he (one lute one crane). I am curious about the Japanese language and the computer keyboard. Do you have a different keyboard when writing in Japanese? Can you tell me a little about your language?

    We just came back from Great Sand Dunes.
    Sorry for late replied.

    We use same keyboad. Just we have japanese lunguage instooled in our MAC. Just select Japanese lunguage and tyiping by Romaji.
    Symply typed KOYUKI, automatically show こゆき(Hiragana) Also we can conversion to 小雪(kanji) or コユキ(katakana)
    These three different Japanese mean all KOYUKI.
    Please see the link showing below. You wiil know more about Japanese.

    I do not have my link page. Because too much for me…
    So, I will let my Japanese friend knows about “What’s new” of your site.
    This is very interesting for them too even they don know English.

    Dante’s page is beautiful!! I feel like a bad mom, I don’t have any “cute” pictures of my guys.

    I looked more closely at the Happy Birthday picture….Those dogs’ coats are stunning…How did they come to be that way…..What is the diet? supplements? or is it the genes? a masala? all gorgeous lhasas….their coats look like lambs wool…

  6. Vickie says:

    Genetics plays a huge part in Apso coats … either they have it or they don’t, as well as the type of texture (or lack thereof). You can’t take a cottony coat and make it “better” with supplements … it is what it is! Dante’s coat was still “wooly” in that photo and he’s since been stripped of undercoat. One can actually “see” the body under the coat now!
