Lucy, Champ and Luke are all purebred Papillions we bought in 2004.  Lucy is the youngest and the smallest, about 8 lbs.  Champ is about 6 mos older than Lucy and 6 mos younger than Luke and is about 18 lbs.  Luke is the oldest and weighs about 22 lbs.  Due to some health issues in our family we can no longer provide the level of attention we think these guys should have.  

Lucy is very active and loves to play catch.  She is very happy and outgoing.  She does not seem to realize she is a small dog and has stood up to dogs much larger, always making friends in the end.  We have hardwood floors and she once wagged her tail so hard she fell over! 

Champ comes from champion blood lines and he clearly has good breeding as seen by his role in the group.  When we brought Lucy home she was just 3 lbs.  We set her in her basket when she got tired and Champ climbed in next to her and put his right, front leg over her.  Later on when she could not make it down a stair champ picked her up by the rough of her neck and carried her.  Lucy was squirming all the way.  Champ loves to run and play at the dog park and to tussle with Luke. 

Luke is the most patient dog.  Lucy will be pulling on his tail to get him to play and Luke is very even tempered with her antics.  Luke loves to have his tummy rubbed and enjoys playing with both Lucy and Champ.  All dogs are trained to walk on a leash and do their business outside.  They are socialized both with people and with other dogs.  Once Champ got out of the back yard and we found him sitting beside the gate, which had closed, waiting for us when we got home. 

These guys have been spayed and neutered, have all their shots, and have had good care from our vet.  They are very friendly even when smaller children may be a bit rough.  They are located in Manhattan Beach, California.

If you are interested in these sweet babies, please call or email me Christie Garvey (310) 560-6081 or email: christigarvey@ngc.com
