Cassey is just wonderful. A year old now. She goes everywhere with us. She is holding her weight at about 50#. I have had her on a raw food diet for almost 5 months and she thrives on it. I am getting her certified as a service dog so that we can travel on Amtrak, etc. and take her with us. She has been great for Bob as he had a rough summer health wise. When he thinks I am not around he talks to her so sweetly and just loves her so much. Of course she loves him because he gives her treats without making her do anything for them . |
She starts her intermediate training classes in late September. I work some with her everyday. She is wonderful with the neighborhood children and so well behaved in public. People are amazed that she is only a year. She loves the Farmer's Markets as everyone stops to pet her. She sits and gives them her paw and the vendors give her treats. |
Pray all is well with you and the family. Be well. Thank you for this wonderful creature that is gracing our lives. Not sure I could have gotten through the rough summer without her. Fondly, Patricia Oak Harbor, WA |
She has finally learned to jump in the back of the vehicle. Bob got her to finally do it. She was getting much for me to lift all the time. She relates well to other dogs and I take her to a wonderful doggy day care about every other week. The gal has 3 1/2 acres and keeps the big and small dogs separated. She gets to run and play all day - chase ducks and rabbits (her most favorite thing to do). I am busy. Teaching online again this semester. With Bob not well most of the summer I was getting rather tired as I had to pick up all the things he normally does. I am freezing produce from the garden and fruit from the Farmer's Market, and spending time at the beach or in the woods with Cassy. One place I run Cassy is loaded with marion berries and I pick while she runs. |
Tia Crosby! I was just going to send you some pictures of Tia's summer haircut. She gets looks and compliments long or short hair. She is truly a show stopper and a perfect sweetheart! A day she adds to our family! Thanks! Lindsay Washington |
Monty Just to let you know that Monty is doing fine now he's just a year old. I enclose some photos of Monty and his friends at the local dog park and Monty at the beach. Kay Qualicum Beach, B.C Canada |
Rundle Just wanted to drop you a line and tell you about Rundle. (He got his name from Mt.Rundle in Banff) He is about a year now and weights around 60 lbs. He’s got a very friendly disposition, very comfortable around people and is great with any other dog. We’ve taken him for 3 dog training sessions that have helped but he’s still very much a young dog! It was hard getting used to a puppy after having an old dog around for a long time. Everyone tells us he’s very well behaved. |
We have probably sent, and I’m honestly not exaggerating, over 20 people to check out your site. Every time in public we are educating people on poodles. We have people running out of their houses, pulling their cars over and complete stranger’s calling out to us to ask, “that’s the most beautiful dog I’ve ever seen! What is he?”….Usually followed by…”labradoodle? Goldendoodle? One of those mixes?” |
He’s a very good mountain dog, he stays close and has excellent stability and stamina. Hasn’t taken to chase deer, gophers, etc. We’ve taken it easy on him until he’s fully grown, but have been adding some longer hikes this summer. Hope all is well with you, your family …take care… Nick & Heather Alberta, Canada |
Miles! Miles is an amazing boy. He follows me everywhere. He stayed home with Loren yesterday but today I am taking him to school with me. He has the most mellow personality. He is exactly the dog for me. We are bonded already. Miles is very choosy who he plays with at the dog park. He is quite regal. He reviews the behaviour and size before making any moves. You were totally right about his personality. Calm and observant, friendly but not overly outgoing. Totally bonded to me even though he loves Loren too. Thank you for helping us choose the perfect dog. Suzi B.C. Canada |
