We are home with Comet. He has been the PERFECT puppy
letting us know when he needed to do his business. He is currently chasing
the kids through the house. He is a little whiney which we assume is from
missing his brothers and sister. WE LOVE HIM. Thank you. We have taken
many pics so will e-mail some soon. Love Comet's Family
Comet is doing fantastic. He is up to date on all vaccinations.
Comet will be neutered the first of December. He is eating Science Diet
large breed puppy food and weighs about 62 lbs. Comet sleeps is his crate
in the house. Comet spends most his time with us either in or out and
has lots and may I emphasize "lots" of energy. His favorite
game is fetch or chase depending on his mood.
Comet loves all in the family but is definitely my dog. He sits lies down
and stays and comes on command. Like all puppies jumps up when he is excited,
but we are working on that. Sincerely
Karen
Comet is doing great, but he is a little bored with the
cold weather. WE took him with us to California for 3 weeks. We stayed
at my father's vineyard where he got to run all he wanted. He loved it.
He probably ran several miles a day following us on a 4- wheeler. It was
also good for his training, and he was a very good boy. He definitely
is a high energy dog, but we love him. Take care. Sincerely, Karen
Comet has been chewing his bed, so he can't have a bed in his crate right
now. We walked every say about 1 1/2 miles daily, and he has a large yard
to exercise in. Here are the latest photos of Comet at play. Sincerely,
Karen
We still love Comet and he is doing really well. He got
a new friend for Christmas, her name is Molly. Hope all is well with you.
Sincerely, Karen |

Thank-you for the wonderful puppy. He is still trying to
chase the cats but less so than before. He just wants to play with them
so badly but they are a little unsure of his size. We have really started
to give him treats to reinforce that chasing cats gets him no treats. The
one cat (Jose) likes to play with him through the baby gate since it is
safe that way. He does his alley cat and jumps side ways to show him he
is hyper. This cat also thinks that whatever we are feeding the dog he should
eat so he can grow bigger. He is still as cute as ever even as he grows
up and gets a little bit bigger(everyone that sees him says that he is going
to be a big dog).
I think that he will be a good dog to run with since that is all he really
wants to do when we go for walks. Even when we see other dogs on walks he
doesn't bark but he sure wants to meet them. He only barks sometimes when
we have to place him in the crate while we are gone.
He is also good with kids. We had a 3 year old and a 10 month old child
come and visit and he loved both of them. He tried to lick them every chance
he could get. The 3 year old would run with his leash and he would follow
her no matter where she went. Of course he was under a lot of supervison
but he was fine. Here are a few updated pictures that I thought you might
enjoy. Thanks again. Tanya
We are sending several photos of Dono. The first was in Jasper, Alberta,
Canada in May, 2005; in Yellowknife, North West Territories, Canada at Christmas
time 2005 (above); and at Herald Park (above) near Salmon Arm, British Columbia,
Canada he loves to swim. He has travelled quite a bit and he loves whereever
we take him. He is really getting social since we take him to off leash
dog parks where he meets other dogs and he can chase a ball with wide large
open spaces. He loves to fetch and we are working on him dropping the ball
when told to. He loves the game of chase with other dogs. Sometimes we don't
let him since he gets over excited and almost out of control so I call him
off. Hope that his siblings are doing well as well. We love Dono. He has
grown up to be a very good dog. He rarely barks and only a few barks at
night maybe once a month and they usually aren't very loud. Talk to you
later. Tanya |

Nike is awesome. I can't say thank you enough. She is
a beautiful cat on the outside and inside. She and PJ get along great,
I couldn't be more happy. Her personality is terrific, she is quite an
entertainer. She really is a joy. I will send you some pictures this week
as I have them at home on my computer. Her ear still has the little dent
in it, hence the name Nike cuz it looks like a little swoosh. She and
PJ are spoiled rotten as all critters should be. It makes me sad to think
that some are not spoiled instead they are abused. Thanks again and happy
2008. Gail
I have attached some pictures of Nike, she is precious and loved and very
spoiled. The 1st pic is Nike and PJ sharing a kiss and lick on the climber
in my house. They are both very spoiled to be exact. Thank you so much
for letting me have Nike she has been a total blessing. PJ and I both
love her very much. Have a great day and enjoy the pictures. Gail |

Chance is the easiest pet we've ever had
- mellow, but playful and very good about following rules. His
veterinarian follow-up visit showed that he is overall healthy guy.
He loves his kitty slightly more than she
loves him, but they play and get along very well. Chance wasn't too sure
about Halloween costumes. But once he figured out those weird creatures
occasionally dropped food, Chance got right over being shy. It's hard
to believe - but he house trained himself. Chance has never destroyed
anything, but we've always been sure that he had plenty of his own toys
to chew.
Chance has a new very cushy new bed in front of the heater. When home
alone, he is gated in kitchen. Chance still stays in his crate whenever
we travel or stay overnight somewhere other than home.
Chance demands daily adventures - hiking,
biking, playing soccer and frisbee - and generally helping with everything
his humans do. Here's a quick shot of Chance today...

This is a picture of Cheyenne at five months and boy is
she getting big. She is doing fine, she is still a bundle of energy and
fun. She gets along with everybody she comes into contact with. I know
she was meant to be here, because Cheyenne has filled our home with lots
of love and laughs. Both Laine and I would like to thank you, the staff
and all the other people for helping us make this happen. Thank You

Rowdy loves his new home. He gets along with Cheyenne,
our other dog. They run each other ragged. Rowdy and Cheyenne get along
great with each other. At Rowdy's vet visit, he was found to be very healthy.
Rowdy is very obedient and gentle. He does not bark, and if he does, it
is very rare.
Rowdy and Cheyenne are out in the big back yard during the day, and each
have their own dog houses. At night, they sleep in the house. Both have
their own therapeutic cushion that is good for dogs joints. They run all
day in the big back yard and on weekends they are taken out to rural area
and ran.
Both of our dogs wear city Licenses and dog tags with our name and address.
I will try to download pictures from camera and email them. Kim
Rowdy is doing great. He is a wonderful dog. He is very protective of
Cheyenne, she is in the picture with him. We also have another little
dog and he keeps him in his place when he gets out of line. Rowdy is a
wonderful addition to my family and I'm glad that we choose to adopt him.
He loves riding in the truck and going camping so he can go out and run
for as long as he wishes, he always comes back to make sure we haven't
left. Like I said he is a good all around dog. Attached is a picture when
Rowdy was littler and a picture of what he looks like now. He is the border
collie. Kim |

Spur is adjusting really well to his new
home. He loves to chase the deer out of our yard in the morning. We have
one cat that has moved her sleeping area to higher grounds. Spur and the
girls are getting along extremely well. He scratches
at the collar so we gave him a bath, but it could be just the collar.
Spur is an awesome little fella. He even seemed to enjoy his bath this
afternoon.
Spur is eating Purina and Iams. He sleeps either in his bed next to his
dad's chair or in the garage on his blanket. Spur is on the move from
6:30 in the morning till 10:00 at night. We take him out every hour to
let him run. We will be getting another puppy in the Spring to keep Spur
company.
No picture as of yet. I was wanting to take a picture of Spur and Pepper
together this afternoon but Spur didnt seem to want to go visiting. We
think your doing an awesome job!! Lori
I just wanted to send you a few pictures of our Spur. They were taken
this morning while doing chores. Spur is a total joy and very much wants
to do nothing more than please us (and that he does)! He has learned a
few hand commands such as stop and down, take the calves up, go around
the calves, down and stay, and roll over- he almost has it down also.
VERY VERY smart dog!!! Thank you so much for bringing him to us! Gary,
Lori, Alisha and Emilee
All the cats like to play and sleep with Spur. We found out on our trip
to Flathead that Spur is very protective of the kids. Lori
Note: On their way home from Flathead Lake, Spur's family stopped to say
hello and let us play one more time with Spur. We were very happy to see
them all again. It is wonderful to see how he has grown into a confident,
well-loved dog. Thanks for the visit!
Spur is normally on a constant move but here he posed for a quick snapshot.
He is an everyday joy in our lives. Whether its swimming in the creek
with the kids, fixing fence, or riding along in the swather ... the day
definetly doesn't start with out our little Spur.
Tina
Thanks for your reply on my search for a small traveling companion for
my folks. Its been hard on them loosing there little pom last summer.
Spur is doing wonderful! Such a joy! He is slowing down a little andmaturing
into a nice boy. He Is not so aggressive with the cattle andfinding out
that "Hey they will move without me nipping at their heels".
We lost Spurs playmate this summer, and Spur stopped eating. Finally,
I brough this bowl into the kitchen and he ate with us and slept with
us. He has come around and is back to his old self. Without Spur I don't
know how we would have dealt with that loss. Spur is a little God send!!
Gary and I finally had a chance to take a vacation from the ranch (It's
been 9 years since ourlast.) 5 days in Vegas! Wow!! It was harder leaving
Spur than the kids. The look on Spur's face when we left him at the kennel
was horrid (I know exactly what Spur was thinking, poor little fella.)
I told Gary This will be our last vacation without Spur! Hope the Holidays
were good to you. Lori
