Elsa is a tricolor, pure Malagasy Coton de Tulear from Chico Cotons.  Her sire is Plato of Rogue Valley Cotons and her dam is Princess Leia II of Tar Heel Cotons.   She was born on January 4, 2014.   She is small and weighs about 11 pounds.  She can easily fit in a carrier placed under an airline seat.

Elsa always has her “bags packed” and is ready for anything.  She is our constant companion and always the first one in the car.  She doesn’t care where we are going as long as she gets to come too.  She likes the beach, mountains, and everywhere in between.  We have taken her to several different states, stayed in hotels, houses, and tents, and she is always the very best traveler in the group!

Elsa loves everyone, especially children and cries if she sees them and cannot get to them.  Unlike most little dogs, she is tolerant and kind to small children who are not especially gentle and follows “her” kids into all situations.  She watches them play video games, helps with homework, and sleeps in their sleeping bags on camping trips.  She is the ultimate companion!

 

Cali~

This is California Cutie of Surf City Cotons.  She is a female black and white Coton born December 17, 2015.  She is mellow and sweet, but loves to wrestle and play with the kids.  She was the smallest of her litter and weighs just over 9 pounds, but makes up for it in spunk.  She is so funny and sweet, but like most Cotons, she needs to be with her pack in order to feel comfortable.  Unlike her mama, she is likes to be at home and “rule the roost”.  She saves the yard from unwanted squirrels, helps sick children feel better, and most importantly keeps us all highly entertained with her antics.

Cali is slow to warm up to strangers, but once you have made friends, you have a friend for life.  She is loyal and fiercely protective of her people, especially against rogue squirrels and construction workers with large tools 😉  Cali has never met a child she has not fallen instantly in love with, maybe because they are the best at dropping random treats and feeding her under the table.
