... And they called it puppy love
Oh i guess they'll never know
how a young heart really feels
and just why i love her so ....

Does anybody remember Donny Osmond ??? or am I so ancient ?   

Lovely photo, Tami

That is absolutely fantastic, Christine ! 

I wouldn't mind staying there myself, having a puppycino (without the liver sprinkles though  ) and being tucked in by a nice lady .   
And what a great idea of putting in webcams, so the owners can keep an eye out for their "children".

Mind you, it will probably cost more than I usually spend on my own holiday ! 

Thank you for sharing that with us.

Awww, she is as cute as a button, Julia. 

I love the combination of the colours and the adorable face.  :clap:

Excellent work !

P.S. I couldn't find her on ebay.  Maybe you could add the link to the auction?

Very cute, Maria; I hope you have a lovely Valentine's day as well !   :love:

And just in case you're wondering what I am going to do .....  :crackup:  :crackup:  :crackup:

I agree with you, Andrea, this is in very poor taste (even if it is meant for Halloween). 
It reminds me of some teddy bears made by Parker bears ... in a coffin   
Some people appreciated the artistry, but I still think it was in very bad taste :

And I also agree with Katy : Bad taste bears : the name says it all. 

Unfortunately there are some weird people out there. 

Hugs,

Peter & the bears

Happy Valentine's day to you too, John Paul & Beverly, and to all you lovely TT'ers !

Big hugs from,

Peter & the Bears

Happy Birthday Bobbi.   :dance:  :cake:

What an adorable bear, Clare !

Hi Lynne,

Don't ask me about the technology stuff behind websites, because I'm totally ignorant about that  , but I could access your website without any problems :

I hope you can get it sorted out quickly.

Hugs  :hug:

"Cassius" is indeed a great big hunk of loveliness, Paula.

I love the uniform colour of the fur and the paws and footpads.       Another oversees collector will be delighted !!

Daphne,

You have finally convinced me to get onto facebook.
I have always been a bit reluctant to put my "private parts"  :crackup:  on such a wide network, but Joanne (desertmountainbear) gave me the first push and apparently you can choose your friends very carefully, so I'm definitely going to do it this weekend.

I hope there will be loads of teddy bears on your "Artist Teddy Bears for sale" page and that will ultimately be the ruin of me .... 

Wonderful idea, Daphne  :clap:

Hugs,

Peter & the bears

This is just too cute for words !     

Where do you keep getting these lovely pictures, Tami ???

Hugs,  :hug:

Peter & the bears

That is just so precious !

Sorry I'm a bit late : but I hope everyone down under had a lovely day !  :dance:

I was watching the Australian open (tennis) and fighter planes kept flying over Melbourne: I don't think the players really could appreciate it  :crackup: .

Apparently at night they had a great fireworks display and the men's match had to be interrupted for the fireworks.   

I would love to visit Australia and New-Zealand one day; I have heard so many good things about them.

Hugs,  :hug:

Hi Richard,

Blizzard looks absolutely amazing : lovely attention to detail, very realistic (I love the hump). 

You are certainly learning new skills at a fast rate.  Good for you.  :clap:
I will be looking forward to seeing your next creations !   

Peter & the bears

Oooh, she is adorable, Sheryl ! 
I love the fur and the beautiful shading ... and the open mouth ... and the little teeth ....  and everything else. 

Great work !  :clap:

Hugs,  :hug:

Peter & the bears

Oh he is adorable, Elena ! 

I he were to sleep next to me in my bed, I could never get up in the morning. 

Hugs,  :hug:

Peter & the bears

He just looks so peaceful and satisfied; without a worry in the world.   

Wish I could feel that way sometimes  .

Lovely photo, Tami.

These birds are really magnificent, Ann-Marie.  The two youngest are just so cute. 

But why are the four older ones all huddled together in a corner?  Are they begging for food ?

I believe they are very smart animals as well, no ? 

You must be a very proud "grandma" ! 

Hugs,  :hug:

Peter & the bears

He is adorable, Cheryl, no wonder you are proud of him !    :clap:
I just love his sweet expression.  
Apparently he has already found a new home ... good for him; his new mum or dad will love him dearly . 

Hugs,  :hug:

Hi Dawn,

I loved this first issue of TBT under your editorship. 
The articles were great : much variation, so many beautiful bears, some wonderful new initiatives (collector profile, TBT celebrates).
And the fact that many TT'ers were featured as well was an added bonus : lots of familiar bears in the BBAA article; Susiray's letter to the editor; Tracey Smith; ...

A big applause for you for a job well done !   :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Hugs,  :hug:

Peter, Alvin & the bears
