Hi Pat & Robbin,

On Saturday Lacey and I tested for Therapy Dog International. The dog and handler test is 18 different activities. There were 9 dogs that tested on Saturday and Lacey was the only one that passed. So now she is a credentialed therapy dog.

 When we got Lacey that was one of my goals. She is so smart, gentle, and loving. Everywhere I take her, I get stopped by people who want to meet her. The nicest compliment I got was from a woman who said she was a “very polite” dog. We are looking forward to visiting schools and hospitals. Next on the agenda is to test to be a “Pet Friend” at Children’s hospital.

Thanks for such a wonderful dog. We will see you soon – probably in October for a few days of boarding.

"Milo remains perfect! He continues to tolerate lots of love from the girls and has grown very loyal to the whole family. He's been receiving training and has learned to be a very obedient dog and handles the many distractions around him very well. He was fully housebroken in 1 week! He's quite social and has frequent playdates with pups in the neighborhood... What a great dog! We'd be happy to be a reference if anyone asks

Here's a picture of Coal B. and his mom the first time he went swimming in the lake at our camp. He absolutely loves it there and always manages to steal all the attention. People  just adore him. Thanks again for our wonderful companion.

" We are LOVING Jack!!...He is SO good, nice job with his beginning training. We could tell right away he would be a good boy. My groomer loves him too. Jack is totally housetrained and pretty good about not jumping on people. It's adorable when he gives his big giant paw. I'll let you know but he's definitely looking like he's going past the 50 lb mark. Not quite to his 6 mos. bday and he's 45 lbs. He's a hoover! Thanks again

"Just wanted to shoot you a quick email and let you know that Griffen is AWESOME!!! We love that pooch to no end.  He is doing very well with housebreaking and I am pleased to say he pretty much is at this point. He goes to the door when he wants to go outside... I wanted to thank you so much for such a wonderful pup. He has become quite a part of our family already.

" I just wanted to let you know how much I LOVE my Ozzy. He truly is my best friend. Everywhere we go people want to pet him and ask questions about him. My vet and groomer love him too. This weekend Ozzy learned how to "high-5" and it only took about 10 minutes to teach him. What a smart, wonderful dog. I'm so blessed to be his mommy.

"We absolutely love her!  She's a great dog.........smart, happy, comical, etc.  She's a giant ball of fluff and energy one minute and calm and loving the next minute!  She's growing like a bad weed......was up to 26 pounds last week.  We're wondering how big her brother "Seymour" is by now!  He was much bigger than her when we picked her out.

We couldn't have made a better selection.  Everyone who meets Bella, loves her.  Thanks so much for the care and attention that you invest in the breeding.  We really appreciate it!

Hello Robbin & Pat!

We wanted to give you an update on our baby girl Piper - she is AWESOME! We love her so much and enjoy every minute with her. She is so sweet and smart and learns so fast. We are amazed at how she wants to please us and be with us (actually physically touching us at all times if possible!) We have had her out in the snow (that's the only place to be this winter - no grass to be found!) and she really likes playing with the boys in the woods up at our cabin. Piper is growing like a weed, weighing 14.7 lbs last week at her 2nd check up. Her puppy class starts next week at our vet's office. Should be fun.

Hope you enjoy the pix of Piper and her people. The one of her pulling T-Boone's tail is priceless! (Does the T stand for tolerant?) We hope to make it to the reunion in June. The place you have booked for it looks fantastic!

Before I sign off, I must tell you again how wonderful you both were from the moment I first contacted you. There are cute puppies all over the place ready to be adopted, but it was your terrific caring attitude that made the difference for us. The fact that you answer questions in a thorough and caring fashion, don't ship your pups all over creation to make a sale, host a family reunion, showcase past puppies on your website, send pictures of puppies and then adults to show what the coat will look like and all the other examples of great customer service is what sets you apart from all the other breeders we have encountered. We will always highly recommend you to others! (If only you lived on the eastern side of the state!!!)

Thanks again!
