Hi Songcatcher, Just thought I’d send you a few photos of Duncan Heinz from his 1st birthday on 3/16. He’s a very sweet boy and adores his brother Cooper. Hope all is well!

Josh, just wanted to let you and your family know how “Zoey ” is doing! We started out with the name Daphne, but learned real quick it didn’t fit! Duke is our babysitter and the two are extremely bonded. Had to buy new bed to fit both, didn’t like the two cute ones I bought, they didn’t fit together! She was to be my dog, but Jim can’t resist getting up with her, so Jim has two on his lap! Here personality is strong, loves toys, loves digging, very kind as the vet would say! She is very long and starting to change color. She has been a true blessing and such a joy. Reminds us of our lacy we lost three years ago. Thank u for a wonderful sweetheart!

I wanted to send you a pic of Tucker…he is so darn sweet. He seems to be very happy and is super playful with his big sister Georgia (picture below). Were just in love with this little guy!

Good morning Jake It has been a year since we brought this cutie home with us. We couldn’t be happier. Louie is a great puppy and we love him so much. He loves to be outside and is very active. Thank you so much for this blessing. Have a great day!!

Hi Jake, We sure do love Love LOVE this dog! Marty is such a joy. Thank you! I’d love to get in touch in a year or two about a sibling dog but for now he seems happy to be the “only child.” Ps. Here he is at the farmers market in Portland. Flew on the plane just fine.

Hi Jake, I hope you and your family are doing well and staying healthy. I wanted to share a few photos and an update on the female long hair cream dapple I got from Strawberry & Jokers August 20th litter. We have named her Jasmine and call her Jazzy. She’s thriving and such a joy! She has fit nicely into our family including with our Boxer dogs, cat and chickens. It fills my heart with such happiness watching her run and play on our little homestead. I can’t thank you enough for breeding such a fantastic quality dog.

Our Lucy is really doing well. We appreciate your help in finding the perfect dog for us. She is an absolute Sweetheart and she gets along well with her brother Sam. Sam is 14 and still plays hard, but Lucy does wear him out after a long playful day. Lucy decided to take a Christmas nap. She is certainly at peace in her new surroundings. If you ever need a recommendation please reach out and get me in touch with your prospective client. Thanks again and Merry Christmas.

Hi there! I just wanted to check in and share that our puppy, who we named Oliver, is doing GREAT! He is sleeping through the night, eating well, and adjusting to our family environment beautifully. Thanks!

Hello Jake, and best wishes for a good new year to come! Thought I’d let you know how we’re doing with our first dachshund. Since we’ve always had herding dogs we are often surprised by Baxter’s reaction to things but we are learning that it’s all about the nose for him? At 9 mos and 14 lbs, our vet thinks he’s about done growing, very sturdy and muscular. He has a lovely coat, nice dentition and bite as well. We take him everywhere and another surprise was how many people would come up to tell us they have or had a dachshund, or know someone who does, and share their opinion of them. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of middle ground – people either think they’re the most wonderful dogs ever or they don’t like them much. When we first got Baxter it was a bit scary to have that negative input – impossible to potty train, don’t like people much, inclined to be snappy, dig and bark incessantly, don’t get along with other dogs, etc. Since NONE of that is true about our little guy I just laugh now and let those folks see for themselves how awesome he is! Baxter is awesome. Healthy, loving, handsome, playful, comical and yes, a bit spoiled because he’s so darn cute we just can’t help ourselves!

Happy New Year! Just wanted to share a photo of Roxie and our other dachshund, Daisy. They are fast friends now. The third dog is our schnauzer, Gracie, who is 12 and pretty much ignores them both. She has been a wonderful addition to our family! Sandy and Stan
