Terry Cross
The year that Hurricane Hugo came to South Carolina, we lived on one of Charleston’s coastal islands, a mere 6 feet above sea level.

My Beloved Announcement Bar Is No More 😔
Terry Cross
Well, I finally gave in. My gloriously oversized and probably really annoying announcement bar is a thing of the past, and now, like a sensible creature, it is limiting itself to a few TINY lines, which will be difficult but entirely possible, I’m told.
I admit it had become a bit of a space for blog post-style entries, just a quick and easy spot to hop on and announce a new litter of puppies or a change in my favorite dog food, a coupon code, or just to let everyone know that Cavapoo cutie Baby Bella or her siblings had definitely found their homes.
Alas, all good things must come to an end, and my announcement bar now must live in its proper spot on this blog page. I'm not sure how that's going to look long term, Puppy People, but it will make Google happy, and I'm sure it will be easier to navigate my site without that 5-inch banner across the screen blocking the pictures of my puppies, who were supposed to be front and center anyway, lol.
You'll have to pop in here when you visit the site I will be putting the news where it is supposed to be like a rebellious but nonetheless obedient child.
Sigh, I’m going to miss that ole bar; it feels like I’m breaking up with my best friend!

Terry Cross
She is utterly the most charming little creature ever, that winsome small face, those big Cavalier eyes, what a total darling!!! She was quite pleased with her enormous plaid bow and thought she should be allowed to keep it after her puppy glamour shots as a souvenir but sadly, Mama Terry rained on her parade and put it firmly back in the puppy cupboard where all the puppy accruements live.

Terry Cross
So many people write and tell me that they’ve followed my site for years and that the puppies always bring a smile and that they visit often, many many of them who don’t even have a dog but still love seeing the puppies. But, little did I realize what an incredibly large audience Foxglove Farm has gathered…

Terry Cross
Some puppies are so easy to take pictures of, they gaze at the camera with happy curiosity, shivering with puppy delight at the opportunity to explore new frontiers. For example, Pitty Pat had no problem posing in the midst of a dozen or two Valentine hearts, all within tempting reach. She gazed at each new addition happily, trying to decide which one she could cart off and hide for an afternoon snack.

Puppy picture-taking day is always lots of fun at Foxglove Farm; just ask Myrtle who is not entirely sure she agrees with Mama Terry about my choice of a HUGE pink bow to adorn her adorable little self.
