Fall  2011

 

Owen (Carney & Danny, 4/06)

"Just wanted to send you a quick note to update you on Owen...he's still perfect! I can't believe he will be turning 6 years old in April....seems like just yesterday I was bringing him home. He is such an amazing dog, lots of fun, well behaved....perfect. Couldn't ask for a better dog.  Attached are a couple "handsome" poses of Owen, and one of him with his kitty, Emmitt.  Hope everything is going well your way, and you are having a great holiday season.  Owen sends his love"

 

Piper (Sofie & Buzz, 3/11)

Muffin (Genny & Kody 7/04) and Callie (Carney & Danny 1/08)  "Muffy & Callie wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!!  The girls are just great. As they are our 1st pups ever…we are so grateful for the impact they have brought to us..life is fantastic with them..  Callie has been wonderful for Muffy…I’m sure you remember Muffin as one who does not exert a lot of energy..unless she sees a squirrel..Callie has her now chasing tennis balls!! Callie is a big love bug…has to always be with you.  They both love going to the ocean..we bought a retirement home in Ocean City, MD..Can’t keep Callie out of the surf!!..Muffy digs a hole..does a few circles..plops down with her head on the top of the sand and loves watching the people walk the beach."

Gracie (Berrie & Jack 2/11)  "Well we have had our first Christmas with our Gracie and can't tell you how much we love this little gal ! She is coming of age where she pays attention to every detail and command given to her. One of my favorite things with her is that she lays outside my daughters door in the morning awaiting her wake up so they can play.  I hope the Holiday season has brought you all the joy and happiness that we all have experienced with your cherished pups....she truly has been a wonderful addition to the family."

Shannon (Sofie & Buzz 9/11) enjoys some time outdoors, then settles in for some indoor play

"She is perfect!  She is very affectionate, calm mannered, has lots of energy and loves to play (with her many toys).  We snuggle a lot!  She has met some of the members of the family and has done very well with that.  Not stressed at all.  Thank you so much for such a beautiful baby girl!  I have attached a few of the VERY MANY pictures we have already taken."

Calvin (Sofie & Buzz 9/11) is a really good boy - resisting temptation, waiting for Santa, and searching for a Christmas Tree...

Koda (Sofie & Buzz 9/11) enjoys a rest with her new buddy after a romp in the family room

"Koda is doing wonderul and growing.  It took about two days until he adjusted and came into his own.  Was more playful and didn't seem "lost".  Potty training is going great.  Hardly any accidents and goes to the door now.  He is learning how to sit and "leave it".  There are lots of "leave its"...he loves grabbing anything that is in his reach...especially shoes.  He is so adorable.  He is sleeping through the night and has not had one accident in his cage.  Koda loves the kids and missed them when they are not with us.  He will search the house for them and seems happier when they are around.  The cats and he are getting along, somewhat.  He made friends with the one but the other still hisses and runs away.  But at least they can all sit in the same room now.  Koda does not attack them which is impressive.  He stands at point as if he is "hunting" but never actually "hunts" them.  He just watches.  He looks beautiful when he stands like this.  When he is tired, he is sure tired...he just passes out.  I am enjoying holding him like a baby when he is sleeping but I know this wont last for long :(.  He is very trusting and will lay upside down in my arms with not a care in the world.  He is such a wonderful puppy."

 

Berklee (Mia & Hunter 3/09) enjoys a late season boat ride, and tries on an outfit for the colder months

"Just wanted to update you on Berklee’s progress. He is absolutely great.. we couldn’t ask for a better dog, and he really is everything we could have hoped for. Ever since moving into our new house with much more space and his huge yard to play in, he is the happiest dog around.  Here are a few new pics of him, he is hoping to make the website! J I hope all is well, and we look forward to adding to our family with you again in the future."

 

Bailey (Patches & Buzz 5/11) relaxes after obedience class

"We love Bailey so much and all has been well.  He is turning into such a great dog, exactly what we pictured for our new addition to the family.  Doing well in obedience classes and is the light of our lives.  Thanks again!  He looks more like Buzz everyday :)"
