Dakota

Good Morning Stacie,

I wanted to pass along some info about the puppy (his name is Dakota) as he has been a member of our house for 4 days now.
He is the most well behaved and obedient puppy we have ever seen! He responds to his name and commands very well. Of course he can be stubborn at some times,
but most times he is very responsive to all types of commands. Eric and you were exactly correct about warning us to the puppy's whining about
being put in the cage at night. The first night he barked from 11pm - 6am straight through without taking a break!! HA!
He has been improving with each day dealing with sleeping in the cage at night. It is just something he will have to get used to as a puppy.
He is also eating food and drinking water very well (sucks up water like a vacuum!).
We plan on taking him for puppy training at Petsmart when he gets to be about 10 weeks old.
We will definitely pass along pictures of Dakota while he grows up!

Thank you so much again for everything!
Joseph & Jody

Hi Stacie!

Here is a picture of Dakota at just over 12 weeks of age, the last one chosen of Smoothie's litter born July 26th.
He is doing fantastic and has brought so much love into our home! Dakota has just started professional training and is the star of his class!
The trainer has asked us to use him as an example during each class because he is such a good listener and he picks up on new commands very quickly.
We took him to the Cranberry festival in Chatsworth over the past weekend and he was showered with love and affection from (it seemed like) everyone there.
Dakota really enjoyed interacting with all the people (especially the kids) and the other dogs for the entire afternoon.
He's been great with trying new things and he has been quick to learn.

Thank you again for such a beautiful black lab!

Tripps

Hi Stacie,

I wanted to let you know how much I love having Tripps in our life.  It was a bit rough in the beginning, but he is a really good dog.
I also found out that I am 3-months pregnant.  It is funny how he knows not to jump all over me, but he does it with everyone else.
He is pretty smart, and is starting to learn his commands.
He still hates his cage though, but he either sleeps on the couch or sleeps in the bedroom with us.

By the way, everybody who works at the vet place that you referred us to just loves your puppies.  Dr. Wilson loves seeing him because he is so happy.
He is a loyal friend to have for life.  He even follows me to the bathroom.  Hates being a lone.  Pretty cute.

Just wanted to give you an update.  I will send you more photos in the future.  He is now 31.4 lbs here in his little Santa suit.

Bella

Thank you breeding amazing labradors.  Have a wonderful holiday season.

MAX
(Mighty Maximillian)

Stacie:

Meet MAX- short for Mighty Maximillian- a little more grown up at just over 8months now. He is from Jagger and Sandy's-May 2006 litter.
He is absolutely the BEST!I find myself laughing more with MAX in my life. This dog is just too funny.  He has been a great companion and everyone I meet instantly takes to MAX.
He is now completing puppy training sessions and doing much better. He responds so well to me. I am amazed at how smart he is.
He is such a handsome dog. Here he is, I believe, smiling at me! Looking at his parent's pictures he seems to have Jagger's facial expressions and strong appearance and Sandy's color and beauty.
I cannot tell you how great you are for what you do. Labaradors are THE BEST, and I am so Lucky to have MAX.

Again, Thanks-a-Million...

From Kevin and Mighty Maximillian ("MAX")

P.S. Will send more pictures. I try and take a lot to remember his 1st year. He grew so fast!

Shelby

Hi Stacie-
Hope you and your family are doing well – we really love our little Shelby! Here are a

couple of new pictures of her; she is very smart, and caught on pretty quickly to going by

the door when she has to go outside. She loves to play and run – she really is very cute,

too! She knows how to sit, stay and come – we are working on the down, but she loves to jump

and nip to get your attention! Thanks again, best of luck with your upcoming litters!

Charlotte

Hi Stacie!!!
It's been such a wonderful three weeks!!!! Charlotte is such a great dog!!!
She had her shots earlier this week and weighed in at 12.7 lbs. She loved Dr. Gutman!!
We have mastered sit and stay, the housetraining is going fabulous, it came very natural to her! Thank you for our wonderful addition, we are truly truly enjoying her.
update you soon!!
pam and luke

Hi Stacie,
We can't believe tomorrow she is 12 weeks already!!!
We took her for her check up last night, she weighed in at 18.8 lbs. She gained 6lbs in 3 weeks!! Her vet says she is going to be a big girl!!!
We have now mastered sit, sleep, and lay down, averaging one new "trick" a week.
Many many comments on her shiny coat, attribute it to her mom and dad, but I am sure it's those nu vet vitamins,
and of coarse the designer shampoo we use on her that I get from the salon I work at!!!!
Such a joy she is, we will continue to keep you all posted!
pam and luke

Hi Stacie,
Just one this week! She looks so big doesn't she??? Puppy kindergarten is half way through and we are truly starting to see the results especially on the leash!
Definately our best friend!!
pam and luke!

Here is a recent picture of Ms. Charlote. We continue to be so thrilled with her!!!!
She graduated top of her class, and definately most improved from Puppy Kindergarten! She's just a love bug!

Hi Stacie!!!
Hope the warm weather is treating you and the family well!! I have attached some recent pictures of Charlotte from our trip to Grandpa's farm over Memorial Day!!! She had a blast!
You will see she has mastered swimming, she loves the water! She also had a great time chasing the quads, and yes she will be a fabulous hunting dog next season,
for as soon as the boys fired off a shot, she was off looking for a bird!!! (she brought back most of the clay one's they missed!)

Talk to you soon, and as always thank you again for our princess!! (and yes, she is sleeping in bed with us now too, I'm such a pushover!)
Love,
Pam Luke and Charlotte
