Jake, We celebrated Tilly’s first birthday today with one of her many friends (Annie). Then, we went to a second birthday party with her cousins (Rascal and Bella). Loving this sweet little girl!

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!

Good evening, My name is Ben T, and I just wanted to reach out to you guys to thank you again for the wonderful dog we adopted from you six years ago. My wife and I reached out in 2019, shortly after losing our elderly dog looking to adopt. We had our eyes set on a little cream colored female and drove all the way up from Santa Rosa to see her, and left with her that day and named her Lemon. I reached out a few years back with an update, but forgot to provide photos since our life was a little hectic at the time so I wanted to take the time to make sure I reached out again. We purchased a house and moved back to Maine, my home state, in 2021 so now we live in Caribou up near the Canadian border. She’s adjusted to the winters and the colder weather really well, and she loves playing in the snow. To the point we need to pick her up to get her inside sometimes on the days we have negative temperatures. She loves sticking her face in the snow to sniff and try to track the small critters that might be scurrying around there, and chasing snowballs. She’s an absolute goofball and a complete joy to have around. My family up here loved her instantly, to the point where my cousins thought my uncle was going to get a dachshund of his own because of how much he loves Lemon, haha. She is the absolute best dog I could have asked for, and has helped me through some extremely difficult times. After a stressful day at work, or a hard day of dealing with chores, she immediately cheers us up by crawling into our lap. She lives for affection and cuddles, and seems content to sleep wherever we are at so long as she is near us. We could not be happier, she really is the perfect dog for our home. I’ve attached some photos of her this time. Thank you again, Ben T

Hello Jake thanks for advice on heartguard. She is very active. Here is a pic of the happy owners. Have a great Sunday.

Jake: It’s Dan Dunham again from Reno. Kay and I got Lucy from you the latter part of October, and I wanted to send you a few pics to show you how well she is doing. She has adjusted well to our calm environment and lifestyle, as you can see in the pictures. She plays hard with Sam and collapses on the couch. She sleeps with us on our bed and is completely house trained. Thanks again for saving Lucy for us. Have a good evening sir.

Jake, It’s very hard to believe that it’s been two years since Murray was born, and i picked him up in Truckee. We celebrated his second birthday today here in Miami. I wanted to let you know he is doing fantastic and is still as always very much loved and cared for. He traveled with me internationally in 2021 which was a great experience for us both. I had started training work with him very early on to prepare him for flying, and he is basically a frequent flyer now. I went back home to Ireland for 2 months in 2021 so he traveled with me and stayed with all my friends and family there. Needless to say he was a big hit. He has also flown with me domestically a good few times. I have included a picture of him on our Air France flight, as well as us on a remote beach in the west of Ireland called Dogs Bay. (You can Google it to find it) Also you can see a picture of him in Central Park. I wanted to let you know how he was doing on his second birthday. Hope all is well on the ranch in California.

Hi there, Oliver is a rock star. It is as if he has been with us since birth. We have been gone a week now in the RV. Our trip depended on Oliver’s ability to adapt to RV life. Oh my. He has learned everything we need him to do. Oliver has learned so much. Leash work is also amazing. He waits for me to attach his leash. He loves tracking. I may think about special skill and see if there is a tracking group available. On our walks, we are routinely stopped with smiles and sweet comments. He gets attention wherever we go. I am noticing many many dogs that behave badly compared to our rock solid Oliver. His behavior is all due to your upbringing. Whatever you are doing at Songcatchers produced this amazing dog.

Hi Jake: We are in love with our little cream long hair, now named King Leonidas, or “Leo” for short. He didn’t eat well the first 24 hours, but this afternoon his appetite seems to have picked up. I think he is settling in and feeling more comfortable. He is so friendly and curious and such a sweet guy. Thanks again!!

Hi Jake and Josh, We had Clancy at the vet Monday for his 11-week shots and he’s now a strapping 6 pounds. He’s quadrupled his weight in 3 weeks. He continues to thrive, loving and being loved more each day. He owns the backyard {and the couch) now! Thanks again for the great puppy!

Hi Josh and Jake. This is Lindsay and Dillon from Santa Cruz CA. Just sending some updated pictures of Marlin and Mochi. We love them so much! Mochi is the smartest dog in the world. Also very sneaky and calculated. It cracks us up. Marlin is a sweetie pie and seeing that we got him after Mochi, he is very attached to her and follows her everywhere. It is very cute. They are polar opposites which keeps things interesting. Mochi is definitely the boss around here. Her favorite toy is a plastic foot. (seen in pictures)
