Hello Don,

I hope all is well, it's been a while since I sent along an update..  My apologies for the hiatus.Pearl has been doing great and her training has paid off.  She's proven an amazing duck hunting companion and steady as a rock..  I've sent along a few pictures from a few of this seasons hints thus far.
I'll be sure to keep in touch more often.

Obi (pics)

Hi Don,

Sorry we have been delinquent with updates. Life with Obi has been amazing. A major adjustment, a ton of work, but amazing none the less. We brought him up to Cape Breton for the weekend and he's loving all the hikes and nature. The colours here make a great background for him. We will try to get out to see you folks soon.

Sage update

Good Day Don:

I hope you had a successfull trip to the Miramichi. 

Wanted to send you a note about Sage. She is a great dog and was well received by our other two. Had a quick trip to the vet last week to deal with a bladder infection, that was quickly fixed with a small dose of antibiotic. 

She respond well to her name and we have been doing a bit of retriving with her favorite toy, trying to establish some stay and come commands. Her disposoition is enviable, she is very calm and a real joy to have around.

So much so that she comes to the office daily with me with very little effort. So thanks for puting your efforts into producing a fine dog. 

Best regards
Rob

Trip to Turkey!

I am taking another pup to Turkey!  Final arrangements not arranged yet but glad to have another chance to eat their food, even on the Turkish Air flight!  Here is a picture of my last trip, first time a pup had been inside that restaurant!

Merlin & Charlene

Hi Don, 


Hope you had a good summer. I see Dot and Puck were at it again (lol) & Paula Matheson's Brie is identical to Merlin at his age so they have consistent genes! 
Merlin is doing grand, we both are. The weather and hiking has bonded us even more and I am amazed at how cuddly he is I love it!!! I take him to the soccer field when I coach and the kids love him too. He is a great one to play keep away with bc he will run in circles after the ball forever! We are off to Gros Morne for a wkd of hiking in 3 weeks. Can't wait! 


Here are the latest of him being all cute and innocent looking haha
