In the O’Connell residence live three amazing dogs; Chelsea, Winnie, and Mitzi. Each with their own personality and behaviour.

Chelsea is a 9 year old, 7 pound Yorkshire terrier. She’s a real diva, a princess if you will. When we want to let the dogs out to do their business sometimes she’ll wait at the tip of the stairs for us to carry her down! Sometimes she’ll walk down a few steps then stop and lie down, letting us know she refuses to move any farther. She is such a sweet little thing. She loves tummy rubs and attention.

Winnie is a 3 (almost 4!) year old, 12 pound miniature poodle. Her colouring is mainly black but with some white in there (she has a little white goatee, her chest is white and she has some white on her paws). She is by far the most energetic dog I’ve ever met. Her energy rivals a puppy’s energy! She is very clever and knows how to get what she wants. Her biggest love is playing fetch.

Mitzi is a 3 year old, 14 pound miniature poodle, she’s actually Winnie’s half sister. She is mainly black but has some grey and white on her. Mitzi reminds me a lot of the dwarf Dopey from Snow White, she is the cuddliest and dopiest dog I’ve ever met. Mitzi sometimes almost cuddles like a human would. Her biggest love is definitely cuddles.

So there’s a brief introduction on my three amazing dogs. They are truly the light of my life and they’ve helped me through both my mental and physical struggles.
