Mrs. Mary,
I wanted to send you an update on how Sully is doing in Colorado. :) I'm currently in the Regis University nursing program right now and part of the curriculum is to
volunteer at a local assisted living community. One of the opportunities that was available to me was a pet therapy session and I thought that would be an amazing
experience for me, Sully, and the residents. I was a little apprehensive of how he would react to the new smells and sounds but he AMAZED everyone at how well behaved
and uplifting he was to the residents! It was truly a moment of "motherly" pride for me.
He allowed all of the residents to pet him (and gave them kisses) and even remained calm when a resident screamed with joy and stuck her face and hands directly in
his face. Sully visiting was obviously the highlight of the day for some of these residents and it was so rewarding for me to share my wonderful companion with people
who enjoy seeing him.
(A random little side note) The couple from WA you tried to contact for me about finding a local vet in Colorado, live in the same apartment complex as me. I was
driving home one day and the couple saw my OR driving plates and Sully's head out the car window and stopped to ask me if had purchased my GSD from you. I guess it's
a small world we live in!!
I hope all is well with you and your dogs!! Will you ever be in Colorado for a show? Thanks again for trying to help me find a new vet (after a few trails I finally
found one I liked).

Mrs. Mary,
Sylvie (the name definitely stuck) is truly an amazing dog that seems more like just another member of our family. Everyone that sees her has something to
say about her! She is always so well behaved and so smart. She seems to understand everything we say and has so many human characteristics. She loves to go
run and is patient on waiting on me-ha ha. I don't know what we would do without her. Sylvie loves to be loved. When she is being brushed she wants u to
kiss or hug her too; if you don't she will lean against you until you do! She is such a girl in that she loves to be brushed. Everyday after my parents are
home from work I brush her, give her her vitamins and sit outside while she eats. She is spoiled rotten and is a lap dog!! If you are sitting outside she will
come and plop down in your lap. Its so funny because she has grown to be so big, but I always laugh and pull her closer to me. She loves the pool-well let
me re-phrase that-she loves the steps on the pool but will not go any further. She lays on the steps in our Louisiana weather! She is so loved and thought
you would like these pictures of her (trying to catch water from the water gun and one from the 1st day we got her).
Thanks so much for my best friend-Love,
Summer

Hi Mary,
It has been a very long time, but I just wanted to tell you that Brooke or "Nessie" is doing absolutely wonderfully. She is the best dog I could ever ask for. I recently moved
to Alaska and she is loving life. She can't get enough of the snow or swimming in the lakes. She is also a very beautiful dog, everywhere I take her I always get stopped and people
always give her compliments. She is a very proud and protective girl. Thank you so much for her! I just wanted to give you an update on how well she's doing. Take care!

Mary,
"YURI" arrived last night in great spirits. We were able to pick him up at around 5 pm, he was playing at home 30 minutes later. He looks great, his temperment and
personality are magnetic,
THANK YOU!

Hi there,
Sorry for the delay, I had to leave my computer at the Apple store overnight for a data transfer, lost without it!! Greg does know her, quite well in fact. He says she is great.
So, we LOVE this dog. He is amazing, so sweet, almost to a point of concern, until he wakes up from a nap ready to go. He is just so easy, I don't even have to worry about him
getting into mischief, he is always close by. How is Orange, by the way?
He went to his first Lacrosse game today. I had my bag packed with water, toys and chewie things, and all he did was lay between Natalie and I and accept water once or twice. He
actually watched the game for a bit, seemed intrigued, then slept through the rest of it. He has had only one accident, and that was 'operator error' -- both girls thought the other
was monitoring nap time (a little pee never hurt anyone.)
He is so smart, he actually seems potty trained for the most part Before we went to the game, we stopped at the garden store
where he was a huge hit. One lady came up and asked for your information, I gave her your website, so you may hear from her. She wanted us to show the dog to her son (age 17), so I told
her we were headed to a game at the high school, and next thing you know, this cute kid comes up with his friends and starts introducing himself to us. I knew Hudson was cute, but didn't
expect quite so much attention.
I am already bragging about what a wonderful breeder you are, based on handsome Hudson's amazing temperament.
Thank you for such a wonderful companion!

Hi Mary,
Our sweet Karen (Wanda from Nala) will be completing her AKC STAR puppy test today. She is so easy to train – really wants to please all of the time. We have her completely
off-leash trained. I’m just amazed every day by her – love love love her! I’ll do my best to get some pictures during the testing event and will send to you.
Sampson (Xorro from Deja/Jando) will be taking his AKC Canine good citizen test in 2 months. He’s ready to test now but part of the program is to complete the training program
by a certified instructor, which is fine.
Anyhow – I sure hope all is well with you and again, thank you so much for Karen. She completes us!
Warmly,
Jenn
