Jake: It’s Dan from Reno. It’s been a while since I sent you pictures of Lucy and Lizzy. That are thriving and doing well. As you can see, they are spoiled rotten and living a life of leisure. We are glad we met you, and I think our pups would feel the same if you asked them. Hopefully you and your family and all your pups are doing well. Kind regards,

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

Jake: It has been a while since I sent you pictures of Lizzy and Lucy. They are inseparable and the best of pals. This picture was taken this afternoon after a day in the back yard running and playing. They bring lots of joy and lots of laughter to our daily lives. Thanks again for helping us with our dog purchases. Hopefully all is well with you and your family and your harem of animals.

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that Waffle is doing great! He is an instigator and gets our corgi in trouble all the time. He shows corgi her favorite squeaky ball and then runs away with it, so she has to chase him. Then she stars barking and gets in trouble for that. He is super funny and very smart.

Day/ night one went pretty good. Leon has a good appetite and seems happy. He wants to be right next to me at all times or he cries loudly. That is to be expected though as he’s scared. My older dog Elliot is a bit put out. He’s not aggressive just distant and seems a little sad. Leon is eager for him to return his love. The cat is acting like I brought home a creature from outter space but she will come around. We just adore him so much and hope the other animal family members come around soon. Thank you so much for such a happy and healthy little guy.

Just a brief note and a photo from a couple of days ago. Here is Suki now and she is going on eight months this coming December 5th. She’s such a wonderful little girl. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. Dell

Oliver is one in a million, Jake. He is learning so many words, now. Today, he finally understood “wait” at the top of stairs for me to get there. He is so funny, having a definite sense of humor. He laughs at me quite often, and makes me laugh at myself. He now likes to retrieve two balls, carrying one in his mouth, while kicking the second with his paw. Rather remarkable. I have been scrap booking, looking at my history with dogs, including the 4 Guide Dog puppies I raised in 4-H. We had pugs and mastiffs on the ranch. Oliver is above and beyond any dog I have ever known. I have been thinking about a sister for him. But, I could not do justice to two. Just a year ago, I slept for the first week holding him in my chair all night. I was so worried Terry would never, ever bond with a dog. How silly. The hours of training are paying off. And, Terry loves Oliver as much as I do. I just bought Ollie a martingale training collar. He is responding well. It seems he is more responsive than with a regular training collar. I like the design. Still a choke collar, but a little different. Carry on with your amazing pups. I am so glad I found you and Oliver. You never know when we might decided we need another. Merry Christmas,

I was heading to work and could not find Lucy. Apparently she wanted dry sleep a little longer. She is a joy to have in the family. Hopefully all is well with you, your family and the dogs.

Just thinking of you. Hope you are all ok. This is Elsa. 3.

Jake: It’s Dan Dunham from Reno. I got pictures of Lucy and Lizzy tonight. I have not sent you any pics for a while so I thought I would send you a couple tonight. Lucy and Lizzy are thriving and they play hard every day. Lizzy is nearly as big as Lucy! Always remember that we are happy to give you a great recommendation if you need any customer testimonials. We happen you have a prosperous New Year.
