David,
Thanks so much for your detective work. We in turn will send a picture of what he looks like now. Very big and strong. The description was right on, very active and a little mischievous. Of the million web sites I looked at, I like the personal touches of yours the best. You seemed/seem to know the personality of your dogs much more so than other breeders I researched.
Thanks again,
Kim, Tracy, Amos and LUKE

>>Dear David,

>>Happy summer to you. I wanted to give you an update on Luke.

>>We are enjoying him (Luke Skywalker is his full name), our puppy
>>born 1/12/07 from the litter of Krystal and Buddy. We adore him.
>>He is submissive without being shy, with not a stitch of aggression
>>in him. Excitement and energy yes -- and he now feels comfortable
>>using his big dog bark to alert passers-by -- but no aggression.
>>The first time I gave him a bath he got scared, but he never nipped
>>or growled at me or the hose. Thank you for breeding such a
>>friendly dog. He's the best in our obedience course! He plays with
>>the other dogs, doesn't dominate them, and knows sit, stay, down,
>>shake, and we are working on drop. We wanted a puppy because our
>>son, now five years old, feared dogs; I am happy to report that
>>Amos is now comfortable at the dog beach or around any new dogs.
>>Luke is wonderful with him; Amos thinks they are brothers. We take
>>him for walks every day, play in the backyard, the occasional trip
>>to the dog park (though he's too young and the other dogs get
>>pushy), and once a week a dog-walker comes by to help train and walk
>>him.

>>Just thought you'd like to know that we love this dog; now I have
>>to pick up the mess from the box he's just shredded. Puppies...

>>Cheers,
>>Tracy, Kim and Amos
>>Long Beach

>>PS: Any newborn photos of Luke? We emailed our selection but can't
>>remember which number we got..? We have pictures and will send them
>>soon, too. Thanks

Just thought I'd drop you a picture of Abner, a week short of 5 months. He is finishing puppy training this week and getting ready to move up to the next class. He is quite a character, and very loving. But he is all Lab and can try one's patience when he wants to. He a lovely dog.

Hi David,

Mosey (dob 12-22-06) from Truffles x Buddy had his third parvo/distemper shot today at 16 weeks. He weighed in at 27 pounds. Smartest pup I have ever had and sweetest as well. Is there a way to get to the page where you had posted photos of this litter?
He was number 4. I would love to see a pix of his Mom, Truffles as well. Everyone who sees us wants to know where we got him. You could place a whole litter right here in Mendocino without any effort. He is your number one salesman.

I hope your transition to Minnesota is going well. I was glad to see you have a new litter on the way. You raise wonderful pups. Let us know if you are going to be back this way. You are always welcome to come visit.

Regards,

Gloria Liner and Harold Hauck

Thanks again.

David, Saturday, March 31st!

Thank you for the most wonderful well adjusted loving puppy! He LOVES to be with us, follow us, he sits in front of us to get his attention instead of jumping (wow), goes to the bathroom outside, sleeps in the crate most of the night, loves to chase balls and toys, takes wonderful naps on my daughters lap...prances around the meadow all happy bounding with joy all day. He loves his huge kennel where he is while we are away anytime - he plays in there during the day even if we are home.
You can take toys out of his mouth and he drops the toys in front of you to throw them! he is a perfect candidate for training - loves to be held and loved! couldn't of asked for better - he definitely filled the void from the loss of our other lab!

Thanks for bringing him out to us and caring so lovingly for him - we can tell!

all our best!

Miriam, Joe, Hannah, Abby and Tucker (the cat isn't too happy yet about Tucker!)
