Hi Jake, Update on Sunny. She’s doing great and up to 8 pounds now. Loves running outside and has learned a ton of tricks/ commands. We really love her. ?? Please put us on your waiting list for a Black and Tan smooth mini so Sunny can eventually have a buddy.

Hello Jake! Well, I’m a really bad photographer but I just had to send these. Baxter is 18 mos old now and his winter coat is coming in with lots of little ‘feathers’, which I guess will become more long coat areas in time. Last year his body and chest were still quite smooth. The changes in his coat (combined with his short legs) have made him into sort of a reverse dust mop! The leaf pile in these pictures comes from 1 (yes, one) potty trip outside. So comical !!! He’s getting used to being gathered up and combed as soon as he comes back in (cookies help) but even so, thank goodness for my cordless vacuum, which is certainly getting a workout. This little guy is our darling, we could not possibly love him more ?? Hope all is well with you and that the coming holidays will be wonderful for everyone at Songcatcher!

2 years ago this little boy was born. He has been the best boy we could have ever asked for. We love him so very much.

Hi Josh, We are loving Marty! He already knows how to fetch and put the toy down for us to throw again. Going out the dog door to pee is another matter…working on that. And he loves the raw food so we’ll keep it up. He seems ok with the puppy harness and doing short walks around the block. Nothing wrong with Marty’s teeth. Here he is chewing up the Tasmanian Devil Thanks!

Hello Jake & Josh! I hope you and your family are doing well. Here are some pictures of Dot. She’s almost 6 months now! She’s such a sweet, calm and intelligent girl! She brings so much joy to our lives everyday. Thank you for the most wonderful addition to our family!

Hello Jake, It’s been a month since we got our Baxter so I thought I’d send you an update. He is 10 lbs, healthy, full of fun, loves people (big and little), rides great in the car and has learned to like his crate – but not his playpen since that’s where he goes when I’m busy around the house and he thinks I should let him help :)) As far as we can tell he’s fearless, and he’s also VERY determined (okay, stubborn) once he sets his mind on doing something! Our dog yard is big and there are oak sticks everywhere. I throw them for Baxter to chase while we’re out there and a couple weeks ago I noticed that he always came back with the stick I’d just thrown. Not one of the other 1000 or so sticks in the yard, not the stick we played with yesterday, but the exact stick I’d just tossed. A few days ago I started throwing the stick without making sure he saw me do it. Jake, he’s not even 4 months old and he hunts until he finds the right stick, is that a Dachshund thing? Anyway, we really love this little guy, thanks so much for holding him for me! Best regards, Lee J

Hi Jake and Josh, We are moving back to Roseville, CA. Nelly is doing amazing, no health issues of any kind and sticking to the 1/2 raw 1/2 kibble diet. She is extremely social with big and small dogs. Also, she is a very good swimmer and is obsessed with all water. Photos attached: 1: first bday pupcakes (her first treat outside of her diet and took her 4 days to eat it all) 2: full puppy dog eyes 3: regal shot 4: first time in a pool

Here’s a picture of Bodhi… He’s doing great… I think he’s going to be huge… His paws are bigger than my adult Doxies. He has inserted himself into the family and he is doing great! I wonderful personality!

Hello Jake: Sadie has been with us for almost three months now and we are really enjoying her. She is very smart, lets us brush her teeth and clip her nails with no problems, and though she barks at Ken a lot, she loves to sit and cuddle with both of us. She loves the squeaky and other toys that we have given to her and has played with them so much, that some of the squeaky ones no longer squeak. She also loves her bed. A recent picture of her in it is attached here. We are working on her barking at Ken problem and potty training and both trainings are going well. For now, we wish you and your family all the best!

Hi Jake and Josh, A puppy update for you! I brought Archie home on Halloween and he is doing so well! He has the sweetest temperament and is such a good dog, and also the cutest. We have had lots of family in town over the holiday and he has been the star of the show, my young nieces and nephews played with him and he was great with kids and adults alike. More pics soon!
