QUICK QUOTES
(For those of you who don't want to read all of the letters below!)

"I took Jack to the vet today to finish up his puppy shots and to get his rabies shot. The vet LOVED him. She said she has never seen a puppy that calm, and that he is a very fine looking dog. He weighs 40lbs now and is just the nicest dog ever. He does not chew anything up in the house (well except my socks. he doesn't even touch Sean's just mine lol) I will be taking new pictures of him when I get my new Nikon camera. I cant wait to see what he looks like in 4 more months. Thank you so much for such a great dog!!!!" (written by Stephanie)

"Again I don’t know how to thank you for producing such a wonderful dog. What a difference from the other pups we have had from local folks. Sure can tell the difference of someone that takes care of their animals and wants to produce solid pups….." (written by Regina)

"Brenna has the BEST temperament I have seen in a puppy. ...She is such a great girl. We are so proud to share her with you.." (written by a breeder - Ruth)

"She is absolutely the best tempered dog that we have ever owned. At 11 weeks, she sleeps all night by our bedside, rides in a car like she has done it all of her life and has the sweetest laid back personality I have ever seen. We took her for her 2nd check up at the vet today and he thought that not only was she a beautiful healthy pup but was impressed by her laid back and responsive temperment." (written by Deb)

"You did an awesome job with the pups from A - Z. Allie will fit perfect in our family and is unbelievable potty trained. (I think she's the smartest of them all.)" (written by Deb)

"Everyone loves him and he loves everyone. He has a fantastic temperament. He wasn't afraid of the big dogs and was excited to check out his new place." ...... "Hes going to be so much fun to show. Hes exactly what I hoped for. Thank you. You did a great job with this litter!" (written by a breeder - Callie)

"This little jewel has adjusted from the first minute [when she got off the plane]. I couldn't be happier." (written by Cyndi)

"We had company when I got back and he went up to everyone, a social butterfly! he's a big hit, thanks so much!" (written by a breeder - Anne)

"I take her to a dog park everyday where she can also play and run with other dogs from small to large. She enjoys that and about 2:30 every day she goes to her leash and then comes to me to tell me it is time to go. She is the smartest dog I have ever had but she is also the most stubborn one. She is extremely loveable and very high energy."

"My poor Rosie, she just doesnt get the dog thing, definitely child number four! And my four year old daughter, Emily - Rosie is totally her dog!" (written by Kelly)

Hello Alicia!

We just came in from the backyard and I told my daughter "I need to e-mail Alicia!" Allie was an angel on the drive home. She slept! I took her to my school already (Reno Valley Middle School) and introduced her to the secretary. She fell in love with her. Allie checked out the office and then fell asleep. We came home and she met our dog Eynstein. He loves her and she loves him! We have a picture of the two together and we will try to send it soon. (My daughter has to help me a bit.) John has called already to check on her and is anxious to meet her.

You did an awesome job with the pups from A - Z. Allie will fit perfect in our family and is unbelievable potty trained. (I think she's the smartest of them all.)

Thanks so much - we will keep in regular contact. Let us know if we begin to "brag too much" on our new baby.

Take care, Deb

Noble is doing great! He had a big day. I'll send pictures tomorrow that we took today. He went to my parents house and had a great time playing and meeting his "Grand-parents". We don't have any "human kids", so my parents are our dogs grandparents. He loved my dad and they spent a long time laying in the shade playing with him :o). He also played with my parents little dog Chico. He was so tired from his big day he took a couple naps. Then we came home and he met our crew and he fits in perfectly. Everyone loves him and he loves everyone. He has a fantastic temperament. He wasn't afraid of the big dogs and was excited to check out his new place. He followed us around our 4 acre fenced dog yard and had a great time playing with his new sisters and brothers.
Hes going to be so much fun to show. Hes exactly what I hoped for.
Thank you. You did a great job with this litter!
Will keep in touch, of course :o)

Hi Alicia. Just a quick little note to tell you we made it home safely. You should see Cricket and Cruiser. On their first introduction, they were kissing. I have one shot of Cruiser actually hugging the puppy. As soon as Jake takes it from the camera to the puter I will send them to you..It is adorable. I stopped at a rest area on the Skyway bridge on my way home to give her some water and let her go potty. She was great. I couldn't believe the difference. Cruiser was soooo stressed out for days. this little monkey acts like it was just another day. I am sooo thrilled and she is even more beautiful than in the pictures. I will get back to you later this evening. My vet is coming to the house tonight to check her out!! It's great to have a friend thats a vet!! (no price reduction though..lol) but he is here whenever I need him! I'll be back later! Cyndi

Another email:

This is our first day at home and the first introduction of Cruiser and Cricket. Cruiser was absolutely wonderful with her. The vet took a quick look at Cricket and said she looked great. We have an appointment this coming week for a more "official" checkup! Things are going great and she is sooo sweet. Bob (the vet) also mentioned how good her temperament was. He remembers when Cruiser came and had to get down on all 4's himself to get Cruiser to eat. This little jewel has adjusted from the first minute. I couldn't be happier. I will continue to send you pics of her growing up so you can see how beautiful she gets!! Cyndi

Hi Alicia, "Toto", at least that's what we've nicknamed him for now, is doing fine, sleeping at my feet. The first thing he wanted to do when I picked him up at the Airport is eat! Later he let me know he had to go to the bathroom so we stopped for that. he's very bright, and loving, and playful! We had company when I got back and he went up to everyone, a social butterfly! he's a big hit, thanks so much! Will write more later but right now am extremely tired! Anne

I wanted to tell you a cute story about Frank. We travel a lot on the weekends and Frank is very good in the car and at our Lake house, but as soon as we come home to our Blair house he knows that this is his home. We have what we call "Toy Round-up" Frank goes around grabs every toy and bone in and outside the house even the ones in his toy box already sitting right in front of him. Sometimes he pulls things out of places I had no idea he kept things. He drops everything in a neat circle in the middle of the living room and takes his inventory making sure nothing is missing!! He is so funny and if he can't find something he looks all over the house crying until he has it!! We love our toy ritual!!

Good to hear from you!! We actually had just taken a bunch of pics of Frank. He is doing really well. Early Jan. we are enrolling him in puppy obedience 2 and after that we are hoping to start agility!! I know he will love that. we have had no problems with him, he is 70lbs!! He is such a big boy, but he still lets me hold him like a puppy every once in awhile. He is very well house trained and at 8mos no longer ever has to have his kennel door closed!! We just put the Christmas tree up on Saturday and so far no problems with him getting into anything!

I will send some pictures of Akaya later today. She is doing very well but she is a very high maintenance pup as she wants attention all the time. If I am at the computer she will bring one of her toys to me and put it on my lap and than harass me until I play with her. Kali, our other White Shepherd is over 12 so she does not play as much as Akaya would like. This leaves the playing to me. I take her to a dog park everyday where she can also play and run with other dogs from small to large. She enjoys that and about 2:30 every day she goes to her leash and then comes to me to tell me it is time to go. She is the smartest dog I have ever had but she is also the most stubborn one. She is extremely loveable and very high energy. I have taken her to two obedience training classes and will start her in an advanced one after the first of the year. I want her well socialized with other dogs and one of the best ways to get her to obey with distractions around is to take her to these classes where there are 15 or more dogs.
