Hi Lisa,

Lisa,
I attached pictures of Charlie so you can see how he's progressing. He's doing great! We took him to the vet and everything looks good. He probably weighs around 15 pounds as of today (Friday). He loves playing outside, especially in the snow! He romps around in it and comes in all covered and wet. He also loves to surprise us with wood chips! He can now, recognize his name, come, sit, stay, shake, lay down and of course sometimes be a stubborn little guy, probably the puppy coming out of him.  Thank you so much for a fun, loving and healthy puppy! Enjoy the pictures!
Sincerely,
John and Lietzel 12/12/08

Dixon Family,
I hope that this email find you all well.  Congratulations on your upcoming litter!  We thought that we would send you a quick note on Grizzly.  He is HUGE lol, he is weighing in at 100 pounds now, and healthy as a horse!  He is a great dog, his favorite thing to do is play chase with the kids, he loves it.  He still gets to see Ariata about once a week sometimes more, and they have a blast.  I will get some current pics and send them to you as soon as I can.  Again I can't thank your family enough for all the wonderful care that you gave him so that he could be a MAJOR part of our family that we can't imagine our lives without.  We are hoping to take our first family camping trip this summer and of course Griz will go to.
Thank you,
The Vendegnia Family

Dixon Family,
Congrats on the new puppies, they are all so cute.  Thought I would send you a couple of pics, we took Grizz on his first camping trip this past weekend.  He had a blast, loved being outside and he was such a good dog.

He is completely healthy!  The vet has not found anything wrong with him at all.  He gets a check up twice a year, they want to do his teeth cleaning soon, because dogs with possible heart issues can get infections from their gums if their teeth aren't cleaned regularly but other then that he is great, we haven't even had any x-rays done since about six months after we got him because our vet doesn't think that they are needed and doesn't want to expose him to the radiation if its not needed.  I am also looking into starting him on daily CoQ10 to help his heart.  Research is starting to show that it has the same benefits for dogs as it does for humans.  We love him so much, and I know I say this every time I send you an email, but we want to thank your family again for giving him up, I know how hard it was for you all given his special circumstances.  
Thank you again,
Andrea Vendegnia 9/09/10

Hi Lisa-
I have been meaning to email you for the past week.  Life is busy now with a puppy! J  I feel like I have a new crawler again-  I have to watch Finn like a hawk!  We are all so in love with him!  He is doing great, but sure loves to find the kids’ stuffed animals!  He is getting so big too!  I’ve attached a picture I took of him yesterday.  We are so impressed with the training you started.  He is doing great with sit, come & stay.  Bryan has been reading the book, and has started fetch with him.  He can’t wait to take him bird hunting some day. 
Hope you are all having a wonderful 2009!

Lisa,
Just wanted to give you an update on Augie.  He is doing well.  He completed his shots last week and the vet says everything looks good.  Augie is a very lively and happy dog.  He loves to take long walks and likes the water.  As you can see, he is a beautiful dog and is a great companion.  I am very happy with my choice.
Thanks for all the help.  If you would like, I'll bring him by next time I'm in Craig. 2/13/09

Hi Lisa,
We just celebrated our Miss Leila's first birthday so I thought I would send a note saying hello and sending you a few pictures of Leila.
She is such a beautiful girl.  We continued with our training and she is very well behaved.  She has a great relationship with each of us - especially with Alex and Avery.  She and Avery are together all day and she is ready for anything when Alex comes home from school.  She and I love to go for long walks and I am her go-to girl when she wants a scratch behind the ears.  She goes down to the gym and works out with Chad every morning.  She is sweet and loving like Molly.  She is also a great watchdog - her eyes and ears are great and we know someone is here before the doorbell rings.  We are just thrilled with her and feel blessed to have her as part of our family.
I hope you are all well.   Please give our best to everyone and give Molly a hug.

Hi Lisa,
Congratulations on the new litter!  Leila is doing great.  She is just beautiful - I think she looks a lot like her Mom but has a bit of her Dad as well.  She is about 60 pounds.  She is a big lover and has a special relationship with all of us.  She has a great nose and ears - no one can come into our yard without us knowing it.  She has a perch on the stairs where she can see out the front and back windows of our house and keep an eye on everyone whether they are upstairs or down.  She is always up for a game of fetch and follows our 2 year old daughter all over the house.  Of course she is always willing to clean food covered faces, hands and high chairs!  She is a really good girl and most of the time very obedient.   Everyone who meets her falls in love with her.  We just love her and couldn't ask for a better dog.   We have another baby girl due in late December and I am sure Leila will be a proud nanny to her as well.
Hope you are all well.  I have told a number of people about your pups and I hope they all go to the wonderful homes they deserve.  We knew they were on the way because your website is one of my kids' favorites - they love to look at the puppies and what Leila looked like when she was little!
Give Molly a kiss from us!

Well:
We made it home with no problem....Hazel went pee as soon as we
stopped in Silverthorne....and she liked taking a walk, and started to
like to sit and stay.
I think she's done very well....not really much crying at
all.......and likes her bed and toys. She definitely likes her crate,
so went in it a couple times on her own...and took a nap.
I can't thank you enough for everything you've done to give her such a
nice start.......she's just wonderful, and fun, and funny, and happy,
and yet she has listened well......and I'm so glad she's started with
her crate! We know we made a really good choice opting for your
training.
Thanks again.......Julie 3/10
