We met one of your other pups!

Hi Don,

Just wanted to let you know that we met one of your other pups! Chloe was ecstatic! His name is "Tie". Just so happens they live in our neighborhood and ironically she use to be one of my customers at the salon I use to work at. I do forget there names. Tie is one of Roses pups they thought, and my goodness he is beautiful, and a very pleasant dog.

I know that there is a lot of time, money, and passion put into breading your pups. I have to tell you that when any one comes upon one of your dogs or knows any of them, there are no other dogs that can compare. You can almost pick them out right away. Not only are the beautiful looking dogs but very well mannered. You are definitely doing all the right things! So thank you from a very satisfied customer.

Update on Gem

Hi Don,

Hope all is well. Thought I would give you an update on Gem. Last weekend she had two passes on her HRC Seasoned title. She basically nailed all of the components in water and land on both days. Too bad their are not any more tests until April now as she is ready to start on her master title next year. She really has clicked as of late,running blinds,triples, and walkups with lots of enthusiasm!! She will be looked at soon for the show ring,will let you know how that goes. I guess that ice cream cone you gave her At Timmies really pointed her in the right direction! Gem is a very unique dog and apart from her obvious drive,looks and style is often described in our dog circles as being "very cool".

I have one training question for you: I have to train her to honour consistently, and feel that with her strong drive that the collar would be effective. What do you think?

Take care and good hunting,
Ian
