Hello Vivian-
I got your message last night. Thank you for sending the papers so speedily.
Also, Brody (thats the puppies name) is great. He loves the big yard of grass and
constant attention he gets! You produce wonderful dogs and I would definetly
recomend puchasing puppies from you.
Thank you very much

Miss Vivian,

Hi Vivian,
It's nice to hear from you. We LOVE our darling puppy! We named her
Magnolia (aka Maggie). She is sweet and smart and loveable and lots of fun.
We are enjoying her very much and so far everything is going great. She is
completely potty trained, and can sit, stay, come and lay down. We are
working on some other commands. She loves the back yard and going for
walks. She sleeps in our room in the kennel at night and she has never
whined. She is beautiful.
Thanks for checking up on us.

Hi Vivian,
We received Bear's (formerly Shadow) AKC paper in the mail yesterday. Thank you for sending it
promptly. We can't tell you how much we've enjoyed having him with us. He is such a joy, and very
smart. He's already potty trained! He also knows how to sit and stay, although only for a few seconds
before he's distracted. He eats very well, and grown since we picked him up last week. He loves his chew
toys, and plays constantly. He's been a dear member of our family since day one. Thank you for raising
such healthy and beautiful puppies. We look forward to spending many more years to come with Bear,
and we will send you updates from time to time.
Here's a link to Bear's photos:

Hi Vivian!
Just had to tell you how smart Luke is! He now goes to the
door to go to the bathroom!
He sits, stays, and even walks on his leash!
The only thing we need to work on is that he wakes up at 5am!
He's doing great and we are headed to the beach again today.

Hi Vivian,
Sorry to hear about your back hurting:( Just wanted to let you know that Moby is doing well.
He and our cat are starting the process of becoming friends. However, I think Moby's a little
too playful for him at the moment :) Moby seems to have adjusted well to his new home. We
go on a couple walks/runs a day. He does very well at wanting to stay right beside us, except
to smell all the new plants around his new home. We're still working on the potty training of
course. He's learning to whine when he needs to go, but he still has his accidents during the
night. But we're getting there.... He loves to play fetch and has his favorite squeeky ball. I
think he wears us out playing fetch and chase! :) I have ordered more of the NuVet vitamins
and hope he grows into a strong, healthy dog. We just went to the vet again today to get
more of his vaccinations. He seems to have made a couple more friends at the office. I will
have to send you some pictures of how big he's getting--those paws are getting huge in just a
few weeks! I'll have to wait for Doug to get the pictures off his phone though. I have an
adorable one of him where he fell asleep with his head in his food bowl after he finished
eating. Super cute!
Hope you feel better... Moby says hello!

Hi Vivian,
We rec'd the AKC paperwork and your note on Friday. Gromit is doing great - just had his second vet visit
Saturday and he is up to 20 pounds! He is such a lovable guy and is always looking for a warm lap to curl up in
and take a nap. We are teaching him to fetch and he is already catching on. Attached is a picture from the first
weekend we had him at home. When we download new pictures, I will send you another. I love this picture
because his green eyes make him look like a lion cub.
Thank you for the wonderful addition to our family. We love him very much.

Hello Vivian,
Just a note to let you know Baby Doll (aka: Maggie) is doing well. She is a delightful addition to our
family.
We went to Sacramento for 8 days, to our daughters home. Tom made a little platform that fit in the
cab behind the seats, perfect for her to ride and see outside. She was hilariously entertaining, much
like a toddler, if she could have talked, I'm sure she would have been asking, "are we there yet?" Our
daughter has a little chihuahua, named Cessna, very pampered and well cared for 3 yrs old,they just
bought a new home, which happens to have a large doggie door. Thank heaven, Maggie learned to use
it, going in and out as she pleased. It was fantastic! It was helpful to Cessna also, a bit stubborn, but
learned to use the door too! My daughter was thrilled. Maggie is a smart little pup :o)
We've found she has a little attitude all her own, yet she is still a great dog, she wants and loves human
contact and interaction. We've already followed up with our vet for her first check up (Dec 14th) and
then her next shots on Dec 20th. The NuVet vitamins arrived while we were away, she sure does like
those. On her next visit we will be making arrangements for her spay and microchipping.
I've been snapping lots of pictures. Once I get them organized and downloaded from the camera I will
send a few. One attached here from the car ride.
Thanks again. I hope you and your family are happy and well. Also a healthy and properous new year!
Tom, Kathy and Maggie Mae

Hi Vivian,
Abby (that is her name) is doing great. She is basically potty trained and has even been
able to adapt to different houses without having accidents (for the most part). She also
sleeps really well through the night. She is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs.
She has already been on two long road trips to Northern California and is great in the car. I
am out of town right now (one of her long road trips :-) but I will try to remember to send
some pictures when I get home. Thanks! Jenny Clark
|
Vivian,
Abby is fine, being loved by three big brothers, their many friends, and just about everyone who meets her. She
has definately adjusted to life in Carpinteria and being the princess in the house.
She is extremely active and feisty, playing with her many toys. We have a large back yard which she has
thoroughly explored. Her favorite things to do is chew on our palm trees (which I am covering so as to give the trees
a chance to live). She's regularly going to the bathroom outside in the backyard and hasn't had an accident in the
house since her 3rd day with us. I am crate training her, so at night she is up once or twice, and goes immediately
when I put her on the grass. She's very smart and has quite the personality. I can see why she was a favorite.
Thank you again for such a wonderful puppy; she is a treasure.

Hi Vivian,
Just to let you know we are having a great time with Maggie. She is such a good dog.
She is completely house trained, she goes to the door when she needs to go out. (Whew, sure glad we got
that one covered!) :) Tom has been training her on a leash. She does really well, is learning not to pull and to
stay on the sidewalk without straying. She can Sit, Lay down, crawl and shake by command and hand signal.
Next will be 'back up' and sit up. She catches on very quickly.
She had her third series of vaccines last week; including rabies. She weighs a hefty 43 pounds.
I'm attaching pictures. She is a beauty!!
Take care.

Hi Vivian,
I have some photos to share with you :0) Not portraits like yours, but
cute to share. I will take some with my new camera this week, the others
are from my cell phone which turned out a little blurry. We are enjoying
our pup, he has a fun personality!! He can be lovey and cuddly, playful,
and a bit naughty at times too... But we LOVE him to pieces!! The cutest
pup the vet has seen in a lab breed. Says you have done well, wanted to
share this with you.
I have just reordered NuVet vitamins and made a follow
up appointment for his next shot and will have a microchip inserted too.
Thank you again for selling us the sweetest little guy.
I am surrounded by 4 boys in the house, to smother me with love!!!
How lucky am I????

Glacier (from Duke and Yellow Diamond) is doing wonderful! He is now just 4 months old and everyone is
enjoying his company. He is our travel dog and everywhere we go, he goes with. He is very much
attached and doesn’t spend much time away from us. He barks at new people, trying to act tough like
the other two big dogs that live at our house. People always say how handsome and how cute he is and
tend to keep repeating it every time he does something, it’s funny. It’s great that he wants to protect us
and he very eager to please…most of the time ;)(we are still working on potty) He loves to cuddle in the
bed with us and run up to us at the door with lots of kisses and excitement when we get home from work
and school. When he at our house he hangs with the two Rottweiler mixes Rocky and Buster that are
here and sometimes hangs at my parents’ house with their golden retriever Thunder. He is very hyper
and loves to chew on things, especially socks, but is defiantly getting a lot better. He knows sit, settle,
stay, up (stand on two back legs), and down and of course kisses. He has taught himself how to open
drawers around the house as well as open bedroom doors (sometime wonder if that’s good or bad
hehe). He is very intelligent and never goes beyond where he can’t see us. Just this thanksgiving
weekend we went up to Big Bear and Saturday morning we woke up to 3 inches of snow. HE LOVED IT!!!
He was running and dragging his nose through it, he would keep asking to go out like he had to go potty,
but was just tricking us so we would let him play in the snow. He is so great and we are so in love with
him and happy that we have such an adorable smart boy to share our lives with. Along with the e-mail
are probably a good 30-40 photos and I can send videos of him playing in the snow too if you would like.
We have lots of pictures!
Best Wishes,
Fred, Sierra, and Glacier Buzzell

I purchased a puppy from you almost 2 years ago and wanted you to know what a
great dog she is. We absolutely love her and could not be happier with her. Her
name was Zoe, when we got her from you, but her official name now is Delightful
Dutchess Daisy. Thank you so much and I would surely refer you to anyone wanting
to purchase an AKC registered full blooded labrador retreiver. Thanks again for the
great family member we purchased from you.
Sincerely,
The Gonzales family

Hi Vivian!
Riley is still doing great! I get so many wonderful compliments about him. In
fact I know a lot of officers who are lab owners and they are very impressed
with him. That should be a great compliment to you! My nickname for him is
"Tank" he is still on the vitamins and really doing great! I will get some pics to
you as soon as I can.
Best wishes, and happy Holidays!

Dear Vivian,
Just a short note before the Super Bowl begins to let you know that we just love your
Violet. Her name is now Lucy and she is adapting so well. I’m glad that we listened to
your suggestions because she does have a wonderful personality and is so adorable! She
has already warmed up to all of us and is playing well with our male lab, Lynyrd. They
are going to be a beautiful couple and great mates for years to come. Your baby is one of
our family now and everyone is so excited about having her added. Many Thanks again
and we’ll send your pictures soon and when Lynyrd and Lucy finally have a litter
themselves, we’ll send you and your husband cigars.
Best Wishes

Hi Vivian - Max is doing absolutely wonderful! He already lets us know when he needs
to go potty outside. He hasn't had an accident in the house in a week! He is almost
growing up too fast. We just love him and he is acclimating perfectly.
I attached some pics - he loves to cook with me in the kitchen and BBQ with his Dad
out back.

Hi Vivian!
We named Buddy, Raylan. He's doing really good and he's super smart!! 99% housebroken. If he does go in
the house, it's right by the door which means it's our fault because we didn't let him out. We took him to the
vet and got his shots and microchipped and I got the vitamins right away. The other dogs like him a lot.
Really the only problem I've had with him is with our box turtles. We have a LOT of them in our backyard
and he likes to bark and paw at them. I think it's funny, but the turtles don't like it one bit. Thanks for doing
such a good job with him. He's very socialized. If I meet up with anyone who wants a lab, I'll definetly give
them your name.
Thanks again!!!!

Vivian,
Megan's name is now Daisy, and I can't tell you how pleased we are to have her. She is so smart and so much fun! Her
housetraining is going well (mostly), she will sit everytime you tell her either with words or hand signals, she can shake
and "give five", and will roll over (only with a treat). I know we're spoiling her rotten (she has more toys than most
children), but she is still such a good girl. She has had two more sets of shots and is now finished until her rabies at 6
months. The Vet thinks she's the prettiest pup she's seen in a long time! We're going to start Puppy Kindergarden next
week and I think the socialization with other puppies again will do her good.
I was wondering, do we register her after she is spayed or was I supposed to give you something sooner? We would like
to register her as,
"Princess Daisy Bella of Kingdom Acres", what do you think?
Thanks again for everything,
Patty

Hi Vivian,
Oh my goodness, I’m sooo sorry for the lack of response from me.
Levi is doing very well. She weighs about 35+ pounds (gaining about 3 a week!). I think she’s going to be a little
bigger than her momma. J We just started dog obedience class but we’ve been working with her on things since
she came home with us. She is completely potty trained and has been for a while. She can sit, give high fives, and
lay down when asked. Levi loves going for walks on her leash and is doing very well…and only occasionally tries
to lead me. She also LOVES playing with any other dog who will play with her, especially our Jack Russell
neighbor, Bella. She’s not quite as fast as Bella, so it’s fun to watch Levi lumber after her. She’s had all of her shots
except for her rabies one. I’ll be doing that soon. I’m going to take her to the dog park and dog beach soon. I think
she’ll really enjoy that. We’re working on her biting and chewing everyone and everything. She’s barking in the
house more than I’d like, so we’re trying to get that to stop too. The barking we do appreciate is when she’s got to
go outside! She still sleeps in her crate at night and has never gone to the bathroom in it. She also has been
sleeping all night without having to go out. So, overall, she’s doing great. I’m a little tired from the every morning
wakeup call. We’re not going to get new couches, which we so desperately need, until she’s done chewing as
much. J I will send photos next because I need to get them from my husband’s computer. She still looks like the
baby Sweet Pea with that cute little line down her nose except for she’s BIG!
By the way, I forgot to ask or I just don’t remember, how I can get her AKC registration papers. I would like to
register her and I was told I could get the first couple of months free on pet health insurance through AKC Pet
Healthcare if she is registered. Thanks for that.
And thank you so much for following up with me. You have definitely been on my list but other things keep
taking up my time, mostly kids and a pooch! J
Take care and I look forward to hearing from you again and check your email for some photos.

Hello Vivian,
I'm glad you received the contract. I apologize. I am in the middle of finals and so busy at the clinic where I intern. When I
am on break in the next 2 weeks I will definitely take time to send you a current picture of "Kaleb". He's absolutely
handsome!
Kaleb has been a great addition to our family and keeps my husband wonderful company during the weekdays while the
kids and I are in San Diego. We have him eating Canidae dry dog food and he loves it. He is due for his next round of shots
next week.
You were definitely right. He is very calm and very sweet. He seems to know exactly when to be playful - whenever he sees
my older son. The two of them have fun roughing around. He is very patient with our 2 year old toddler, who has a pretty
loud, high pitched voice and is always getting in Kaleb's face, but Kaleb doesn't mind at all. He is also very amazingly smart!
Without even having to buy gates, we were able to train him to stay on the floor area only. He does not go anywhere on the
carpet or into any rooms that he is not allowed. He sleeps through the night on his favorite pillow in our bedroom. He's
just so well-behaved! Truly, we could not have asked for a more perfect pup. I wish training our children could have been
just as easy... =)
Thank you so much! Current photo coming soon...
Blessings,
Beverley

Hi Vivian,
Didi is doing well. She came with us to the camping trip and we just got back last week. Today, she
visited the nearby dog park for the first time and met tons of friends. We are going to get her spayed in
two weeks. So I'm very worried.
But other than that, she's well adjusted to our home and lifestyle. We love her like she's our daughter:-)
I have attached some of her recent pictures. Will keep you posted!

Hello,
He is doing great....we call him "Tuff" or "Tuffy" because its cuter :) He goes to work with me everyday at the horse
farm and he has been great at home. He's now sleeping through the night in his crate and he has been really easy. We
just love him. Here are some pictures. He's really not allowed on the couch but here he is sleeping on the couch,
with his new best friend, ....he's getting big already!

Hi Vivian! It's hard to believe that we've had Sophie almost
for a full week already. She's already visibly grown and her
vet said she's perfect. She's learned to sit, is walking well
on her leash, and delights us every moment. So, thank you
very much for sharing your lovely puppy with us. We've
discovered she loves bites of apples and bananas and loves
to play! Still working on housebreaking her, but most of
the time she's doing well. Here are a few pictures I thought
you'd like:
