Notes from Our Puppy Parents!

Here are some notes & comments from some of our happy Puppy Parents!

Kristy, Max & Finn

Just wanted to follow up on you on a couple of items and let you know that Finn is doing really well!  He is completely adorable and (I think) felt right at home.  Not a shy moment for Mr. Finn; he immediately considered himself one of the family.  As you promised, he is a healthy, happy, outgoing puppy.  He and Max had a rough start while Max adjusted to all of Finn's puppy energy, but this morning they really started connecting and now there is considerable playing and snuggling.  Max has even started doing his business outside when I take Finn out.  It is nothing short of a miracle...! ~ Kristy

Hey Kristen!

Addy has been doing so wonderful here on the farm!! We call her our little herder.  She barks at all the animals and tells them where to go!! haha.  Her and our little silky terrier, Diesel have become inseparable.  She is also greatly loved by everyone who comes to our house.  She's always the first to greet and she has to make sure she gives the most kisses.  She jumps up in laps and collapses there so she can get her belly rubbed.  We've taught her how to dance, flip, sit, stay, lay down, and box.  Boxing is the funniest!  Other than that, everything is going fantastic.  I'm so glad I got this little poodle.  I love her so much.

Sincerely,

Donna

Kristen,

One year ago in February, my son bought one of your puppies for me, we met you at the Burger King in Buena Vista on Valentines day.  I have wanted to let you know for a while now how much I adore her.  My son, Taylor A., (I'm Cynthia A.) gave her to me when my father passed away last year in January knowing I had a poodle as a child and how much I loved that dog.  I've named my puppy Violet Rose; and she is the light of my life, the cutest thing I've ever seen, and perfect in every way.

I was on your website last night and read your descriptions of the temperments of your puppies and you are dead on!  Violet is sociable, confident, not nervous or flighty, she walked in our house and wasn't afraid of my big dog or my 4 cats.  She even sleeps with CeCe, my long haired silver/gray cat.  When we leave the house, she has never destroyed anything.  It may be because of my big dog, Rusty, being in the house with her, I don't know, but she's always been a good girl. 

Violet has slept in the bed with me from the first night she was in our house, sometimes under the covers when it's cold.  She sits next to me in the recliner chair, goes with me to most places I go (except when it's warm outside), yet is just as happy to see my husband or either of my kids when they get home - in other words, she's not clingy.

There are even days when I don't want to go to work so I can sit and hold Violet, how bad is that?  My point in writing is just to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for the most wonderful best friend a person could ever have.  I will have my son take pictures of her and we'll send them to you.

Cindi A.
and
Violet Rose

Hello Kristen Hall....

Today is my 3rd birthday.  Have been traveling all around the USA and finally (at least for awhile) have landed in Surprise, AZ (near Phoenix).  I have to share the place with 2 toy poodles (both female and sisters from the same litter)...one is white (Angel) and the other is silver gray (Sassy).  They are about 5.  Naturally I tower over both of them... but unfortunately my size does NOT intimidate them<sigh>...
I hope you and your current batch of my relatives are healthy and happy.
love, Cesar (and Joe)

Hi Kristen,
It's been a while I haven't sent you emails.
I look at your website from time to time. your pups are gorgeous.
Baby is doing really well. She's the nicest sweetest most wonderful 
pup a family can have. She travels so well, and is incredibly sweet 
with the children especially with my four year old daughter.
May God bless you.
Keep up the good work.

God Bless
Jacky

Hi,
Wanted to write and give you an update on Davey.  We can't believe we have already had him three months.  We love him to death and are so glad we got him.  He is doing great.  He is about the sweetest, smartest dog I have ever seen.  He has learned so much.  Of course, he follows me everywhere I go.  He loves Debbie too.  When I hear her driving up in the afternoon, I tell him , "Mama's home" and he just goes nuts.  He starts rnnning around and heads for the door.  He loves to go to the park too.  When I tell him we are going to the park, he jumps up and down and runs to the door. It is about a three mile drive, and he is going crazy by the time we get there.  He walks around like he owns the place.  We really feel lucky to have him. 
Take care,
D.H.

Hi Kristen,

Our little Kelly has done very, very well. We only got her on March 16th and she was house trained by Tax Day. She has her daddy wrapped around her waggy little tail. Like Davey, she knows when her dad’s due home. Every day around lunchtime and, again, close to 5:00, she runs to the stairs and peers down at the garage door. It’s hard to contain her!

She has a “toy box” and lots of nice doggy toys. She gets up every morning and her first job is to remove her sheep, her nylabone and her towel from her crate. It’s hilarious to see her dragging that big bath towel through the house! She stays with me all day and I don’t know what I ever did without her.

She has earned the nickname “Cast Iron Puppy” at her veterinarian’s office because nothing bothers her. She doesn’t ever cry, even when she gets shots or medication up the snoot, nor when she’s microchipped. She was in to be spayed about a week ago and the vet says as soon as the anesthesia  wore off, she popped up as if to say, “Hey! Did you forget about me? Can we play, now?”

She has saddlebags, in which she carries her own treats on long walks and loves to wear her bling when she goes to visit grandma and grandpa.

We couldn’t have asked for a better pup.

Best,
Iris and Jim Moon

Kristen sent me my beautiful Bella as you can see by her 7 month-old picture.  She is a delight in every way.  She is smart, loving, and very playful.  My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our new puppy.

Pepper loves the snow!

Hello Kristen,

I thought I'd send you some pictures of Pepper, I have found that she LOVES snow!! We had our first snow last week, and she had a ball!!! She runs as fast as she can through it, then stops and eats some, and runs some more!! She also loves to dig!!! She's already gotten up one of my Lilly's. She definately likes the outdoors, she enjoyed jumping (or rather chasing) in the leaves with Katie during the fall. She amazingly does leave or Christmas tree alone though. Well, if I don't talk to you again before, have a wonderful Christmas!!

Kristen,

My mother is so grateful and she wanted me to tell you that you have no idea how much McKenzie means to her.  She wakes up with her during the night and holds her.  Talk about being spoiled rotten, she doesn't know what it is to walk!!!!  I'll send you another e-mail but it will be her picture.  I hope I'm not disturbing you by all these e-mails but we are so excited to have her in our home and in our lives.  She has certainly been an inspiration to both me and my mother.

Sincerely,

Diane J

Hi Kristen,

  All is so wonderful with Poppy, who is now being called “Princess GiGi”, but Gigi for short.  We love her so much and I find that I am sad when I have to go to work.  I miss her like I miss my children.  Thank you so much for allowing us to love her.  She is such a joy to have.  Hope all is well with you and your family.  Take care.

Hi Kristen,

     I just wanted to say thanks again for Brady.....he is doing beautifully!!  He has been sleeping all night without a whimper,and going potty outside everytime.  (With the exception of 2 little  accidents)  We are so proud of him.  He is doing so well with his potty training.  I never thought an 8 week old puppy would go outside everytime we take him!  My husband is amazed!

      He is playing and chewing on his toys and seems to be adjusting well. The children are still so excited to have him that they don't want to set him down long enough for him to take a nap!  I think they are wearing him out!

     Anyway, thanks again. I'm so glad we found you.  Brady fits in perfectly with our family!  I will send you pictures as he gets older...

Have a good week!

Kristi
