Celeste, I've uploaded two pictures. One (Jan10.jpg) is of Cricket with Cooper my older Corgi. The other is Cricket running around. She is doing very well...quite a handful but healthy and happy. She is quite a lapdog too. She curls up on the couch with me when she is tired and can be very sweet. Hope all is well with you and tell Annie that she makes great puppies! ~Susan Altamonte Springs

Hi Celeste!
Jack is absolutely amazing! He doesn't seem to be upset, no whining at all, and right now he's happily chewing on his new rope toy. He slept on my lap most of the way to Kingsland, and when I tested to see how he would do in the crate he was very calm and laid down. He also did his business as soon as I took him outside. I'm very impressed with him and I wanted to thank you again for selling me this amazing dog!

Hello Celeste!
Enzo is getting so big. He finished his puppy class and did
very well. Loves going for rides in the car and waits for me at night to
settle in on the couch so he can lay with me. I think the husband is
jealous! Pretty much has been potty trained for a while now and still sleeps
in his crate at night and goes right in when told. He has been so much so
much fun and so good. Couldn't ask for a better dog! We still look at your
site just to see all the puppies. Take care and keep up the good work!

Hi Celeste!
I kept meaning to write to you about Baxter, but I never seemed to get the time. Baxter has been just wonderful! Sometimes I wonder if we were just lucky to get a dog that is so smart and has such a great temperment, or if that is just how all corgis are. He was potty-trained so quickly. Even right after we got him, he hardly had any accidents in the house at all. He was such a quick learner! With commands, he knows how to sit, lay down, stay, shake, roll over AND play dead. I have never had a dog that could play dead before. We are currently working on sit-up. We haven't had any other typical puppy problems either, like chewing or destorying random items.
Baxter is such a happy and friendly dog. As you can see from the pictures, he is very smiley. Everyone who meets him loves him. When my mom came to visit she just fell in love with him. She wanted to take him home! Baxter is also very good with other dogs. He is still very playful and likes to play fight when the opportunity arises. He seems to know his boundaries very well and he even protected a smaller dog at the dog park last week. He also gets along with children very well. All the children in the neighborhood adore him and even ring my bell to ask if he can come out and play!
Healthwise, Baxter has been doing great. We have had small complications (he broke his puppy canine tooth in half and it had to be removed) but overall he is very healthy. He was neutered when he was 3 months old. We would have waited until he was 4 months, but the vet said Baxter was ready for it and suggested we take care of it while he was having his tooth removed.
Color-wise, Baxter is all red, but still has the black on his face. The back of his ears are almost a dark red-brown with a grey-black color over it. He has a few very dark guard hairs by the bottom of his white collar, but overall he is still very "red." I'm not sure if the black on his face is going to go away, but I hope it stays.
I attached quite a few pictures of Baxter at different ages. I still can't believe how much he has grown! It feels like only yesterday he was so tiny. I also took a video of Baxter and put it on youtube. A week after we brought him home, he brushed against the doorstop and it made a noise. Thankfully I had my camera nearby and I caught it all on video. It is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Don't worry though, after filming the video, I made sure he knew the doorstops were off limits. It definitely stuck, although he still occasionally looks at them like he wants to fight them. =) This is the first video in the four part series:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEPufPsj6l4.
Any time people ask where I got Baxter, I always tell them about you. The whole process was so wonderful, getting the picture and video updates and the puppy play date, I recommend you as a breeder and tell them to visit your website. Like I said earlier, Baxter is so well-behaved, happy, and personable that I wonder if we were just lucky, if its just the breed, or if the dogs you breed are just that fantastic. I often believe it is the last one. I check out your site every now and then to see the new puppies. I will definitely have to check out Annie's new litter.
I will write you again when Baxter gets a little older. I will definitely let you know if he loses the black on his face.
Thanks again for providing such great puppies!!

Hi Celeste,
Sorry for not writting for so long. Attached are a BUNCH of photos Glitch from about a month ago. We're done with all our shots and we just had our 3rd puppy class last night. Since it's only us and one other dog in the class it's an accelerated curriculum and the trainer figures we'll get about halw-way through the intermediate class before we're done :). Glitch such good little puppy. I'm getting ready to try leaving her with the run of the apartment during the day while I'm at work, she's been getting the bedroom for about a month and no problems so far :-D She still loves everybody she meets and as you can see, she's getting more beautiful everyday!

Hi Celeste! I have been meaning to drop you a quick note! We love, love, love Lilly!!!!!! She is an absolute joy. Her nickname is "perfect dog"! You are a fabulous breeder. She is an absolute joy. I will try to send pictures soon.

Hi Celeste,
Just thought I would let you know Ifrit is doing great. He's eating his food, going to the bathroom outside, and sleeping well at night! He is very playful and loving, and I am very excited that I get to be his new mom, so thank you!
I decided to go with Shaffer Animal Hospital, and took him in Friday afternoon for his 48 hour check up. He even got to see his sister (it was either Cady or Suki, I'm not sure which) when we were there! The vet said he was healthy and handsome.
Thanks for my Ifrit!

Good evening!! I just wanted you to know that Neo hasn't forgotten you!! I was watching your video of the three pups in the pool and he went crazy when he heard you talk. I put him on my lap and he perked up every time you said something and was looking at the speaker trying to figure out where you were!! It was so cute. Just thought you might want to know that he hasn't forgotten his other Mom!!!
~Jennifer M Port St. Lucie
Good Afternoon Celeste -
Just wanted to touch base with you to let you know Levi had his first Vet visit with our Dr. Kramer. No worries! It is all good, I just wanted to let you know how VERY IMPRESSED Dr. Kramer was with the following:
a.) Levi's health
b.) Your complete medical records
c.) Your introductory binder that you provided
d.) His beauty & markings
He did confirm Levi's BooBoo, but says it is very small and unless it was noted and pointed out by you he would not have picked up on it in this visit. He commends your honesty and took your information and told me when he knows of clients looking for a Pembroke he will fully recommed you and your kennel. He stated you should be quite proud of your breeding even with this minor issue of Levi's for he can see the care that you took not only in breeding him but in his first eight weeks.
So he goes back in two weeks for his boosters and for another cookie vitumn treat!
I took pictures of Levi with Dr. Kramer so will send them soon!
Take Care and have a good week!

Hi Celeste,
Ollie is doing GREAT and I can see him growing.!! Our Vet thinks he is a very people friendly pup and in good health.Thanks for the nice notebook with all his information. Here's some pictures that I took early this week. Oh he weighs six pounds.
~Susie S. Scottsmoor, Florida
------------------------
Luli did fantastic sleeping in her crate for the first time. She's truly a wonderful dog, she's eating well, playing non stop, and has had very few accidents in the house. She's so smart too, she already knows that when she's on grass it's time to use the potty. Everywhere I go I get compliments on how cute she is too! I will keep you posted, and send you some pictures over the next couple of weeks. Again, thank you so much for everything!
~Phil G. Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

Hello Celeste,
Thank you for Augie's birthday card and remembrance. That's one of the special things about you as Augie's "Earth Mother". You care about your kids. We did indeed take some time to celebrate the day with a drive to two pet stores and tore through the aisles together meeting people and other dogs. It's the Big 4. Augie had an extra good time with even more attention than usual! It's been wonderful with him as my constant sidekick. He's always up for anything and really adds his own take on things to everything we do. He has a very strong, but gentle personality that makes it's presence known in all circumstances. He has learned how to gauge people and knows who he can bounce on and whom to give a gentle nudge hello. I can't thank you enough. He's wonderful and just perfect in my eyes.
Warmly,
~Patrick and Augie from Ormond Beach

Hi Celeste!
We couldn't be happier with Beni!! He is a wonderful puppy as well as
incredibly observant and smart. Beni already knows how to use the
wee-wee pad and goes outside when we say "go potty". Beni is warming
up to his crate and loves to go inside it and take his toys out to
play. Additionally, Beni travels extremely well. When we put him
inside his carrier he is fairly content to relax and enjoy the ride.
You are right when you say that he has alpha male characteristics. I
can tell it is going to take some time to get him to be submissive.
However, we all know that the parents must be "pack leaders" (ha, ha).
Beni went to the Vet today for the first time and his doctor mentioned
that he was in excellent health and was very impressed with Beni's
characteristics. She also stated that we must have done our homework
when it came to selecting a breeder because the doctor mentioned that
she had seen some really sad cases from breeders for various breeds
that showed physical shortcomings. That comment alone made us feel
like we made the right choice in selecting your kennel.
Attached are some pictures of Beni and his new mom for you to enjoy.
Thank you again for everything and I can guarantee that we'll be
emailing you again with more pictures and will be asking for advice in
the days to come!
Take care!!
~Todd, Rosemary, and Beni... Miami, Florida
Hi! Celeste! We've had Ein for a week now. He is doing great. He does most of his chores outside now. He has been going pee outside for three days now. I don't know how it happened but I guess if one is patient enough to take him outside often, pretty soon the dog picks up on your message. We also reward him, and that helps. He still has very,very few accidents in here, but very forgivable. You are right, he is very smart and is rather easy to train. He knows the command - sit - now. But of course he expects a reward from us. Everytime he sees me, he sits right away and stares at me like - duh, I'm sitting down! I had my doubts at first, but now, he is completely attached to me. We tie him up at night beside his crate. Sometimes he goes inside it to play, but we don't force him. He sleeps outside of the crate on top of towels. He is a good boy! And I do believe that the family's personality has rubbed off on him. He has become silly. He's not laid back like I thought before. Was I wrong! Take care. We'll send pictures when I figure this thing out. I think he got a little bigger in one week. thanks again for all the care. Good luck on the next litter's departure. I hope everyone has good luck like I an having in housebreaking Ein's siblings. Regards to your husband.
Hi Celeste,
I hope you enjoy the pictures of Beni. He went for his final vaccinations this weeked and the vet said they would like to take a picture of Beni to show other Corgi owners what the Corgi should look like. They feel he is an excellent representation of the breed standard.
~Rosemary O. Miami, Florida
---------------------
Hi! Celeste! I tried to send you an e-mail a few days ago, but it didn't go through. I just wanted to let you know how well Ein is doing. At 4 and a half months he is housebroken. We must have been doing the right thing by him. Thank God for that. And now, we can leave him for a few hours by himself. Sometimes we leave the tv on so he can watch (he does watch) and hear sounds. But all he really does when he is by himself is sleep in our bathroom. He loves it there. He is going to obedience school and he is doing so well. You are right, corgis are very smart dogs. I told him that I will not settle for anything below A for his grade. Even the teacher is very happy at how well he responds to her. I use the clicker to train him. And lots of rewards. I'll try to take his latest pics and send you some. He has grown bigger, but he is still our baby. His face is turning more and more into red, but his widow's peak is still evident. He is very handsome and he knows it, as he is always looking at himself in our full length mirror. For the little time my husband has spent at home and has been around him, Ein has grown into him. He is a sweet boy and VERY ATTACHED TO MOTHER! He still tries to herd us. We all enjoy him. Take care and regards to your husband and the other dogs!
p.s. I finally brought him to one of my schools before the schoolyear ended. The school secretary and my fourth graders were so delighted with him. He is very sociable.

Celeste,
Sophie seems to be adjusting very well. She has such a great
temperament and attitude! We have fallen in love. I was so excited
to know that she will sleep through the night. We got up at about
5:30 and made it outside to go potty this morning - she woke up with a
clean crate - yea!
I will send pictures soon.
Thanks,
~Hallie A. Longwood, Florida

Lucy has really settled in - not even a whimper - you can't even believe it. She's going potty outside really well and a few accidents through the night in her kennel. It's as if she has always been a part of our family. She hardly ever leaves our side - she's awesome, we love her so much. I'm attaching an Easter picture of her.
Hope you had a wonderful Easter!

Hi Celeste,
Sweetie slept all night and she and Reggie are getting along GREAT. It seems as if Reggie has the patience of Job and just ignores Sweetie's antics.

Hi Celeste, All the puppies are so cute. You must have your hands full! Kobe has been a busy guy.........I check your updated puppy videos all the time. My neighbors dogs Rocky and Annie are in the pic with Yoda. Annie and Yoda run the fence everyday (of coarse Yoda always wins). Rocky is too fat and he just watches. Yoda is doing great and is every ones friend and loves to cuddle. She listens better than any dog I have ever had. Take care,

Hello!!
Sorry we haven't written or sent pictures in a while. We've been SUPER busy. Riley is doing great!! We have all of our training completed except for stay but we are still working on it. He has just grown into a very beautiful and lovable friend for our entire family. He cracks me up in the mornings when he lays in front of the door and pretends to sleep thinking that will keep me from going to work. He has just learned that barking and growling at the alarm clock doesn't keep it from going off. He's a smart one.
He loves to play chase with his big brother and the cats, playing frisbee, digging holes and car rides. He loves to just get out on the leash and go for a walk or jump in the car and go somewhere.
I've attached a few pictures, and will send more as soon as I can dig them out and resize them for you. One my husband calls Riley Saurus Rex or Rileyzilla. I got to dress him up for Halloween, and he loved it!! He got mad when I took his costume off. The other is just to show you how great he looks.
Riley says thank you for the birthday card! We had a small birthday party for him where instead of cake the boys got chewies, and he got some new dog toys.
We hope that you and your family (furry and non) are all doing well!!

Hi Celeste,
Thought you may enjoy seeing how Sadie is growing. She has taken over the house, and the barn!!!
Everyday is a full day of fun for her. When we get home,
she completely passes out!!
Plus, she is a WATER DOG!! We set her up an old feed tub for the time being as her private swim pool!!!
Hope all is well with you, and all newborn pups are healthy and strong.

Hi, Celeste! It's a little quieter at your house for now, I bet.
Yes, we did very well! Little Minnie had a very busy day yesterday--she had a checkup with our vet after they got back to Lakeland. The vet said she was in excellent health and was a gorgeous corgi. But of course, you knew that! Then Lauren got home from school and they had quite a playtime. We are keeping her inside until after her last shots so she has a safe area in the kitchen--her crate and then a fenced in play area--and we put a puppy pad down in the corner. She ran to it every time she needed to go! And we put another pad by the back door in the kitchen and she used it too. No accidents anywhere else--we were so thrilled! I'm not worried that this will make housebreaking hard (I know what the experts say, though) because we did the same thing with Gunnar and as soon as he could go outside he started using the bathroom there. Corgis are so smart I don't think they have any trouble figuring out what we want.
During the night she woke once--someone needed pie and she needed attention--but after a little loving she went right back to sleep. I woke up about 4:45 this morning and she was ready to go. She ate well and pottied and we played and snuggled a while before we woke Lauren up. Then they played and ran through the house for an hour! Lauren has gone to the skating rink for a couple of hours and Minnie has taken a 2 hour nap. I think she may be glad for Lauren to go back to school Monday!!
I was so impressed with the notebook you sent with Minnie! That is so neat--and the picture cd--what a thoughtful thing to do!
We are all so happy with the baby--thanks for all your hard work!!

Roo did fine last night. She slept with our other puppy, so she was warm enough at night. She's very spunky and a very cute.
~Laurie W. Ocala, Florida
----------------------
Fergie was worn out from playing and slept well early evening and then got a second wind around midnight! I took her out to potty 12:00 a.m., 1:00 a.m. and then 5:00 a.m. I won't make that mistake again! She's a very good and fiesty girl. She did well and seems very happy this morning. She's eating and popping well!
~Sue K. Winter Park, Florida
-------------------------
Samson did fine. He's getting used to the house and other dogs. I was concerned he didn't eat or drink enough, but he started the morning well, so maybe it was nerves. The neighborhood and family and friends were lined up to see him. He slept well in the small crate next to me. He cried for about 5 minutes and slept all night. We sure love him. Thanks for caring so well for him I've my camera out and will be sending pics. We might have to change the name but the jury is out.
~Deb F. Miami, Florida

celeste,
thank you for such a fine dog! winston's adjusting well. he's getting really fluffy and fat and adventurous! he loved his first horse show but hated his first bath. so much for the runt, he is a fiesty little man! we took a lot of pictures, we'll email them to you when we upload them.
~Janet Z. Winter Springs, Florida
---------------------
He's doing real well. I have had numerous pups but this one takes the cake. We took him home and in five minutes he had decided he liked the place as he explored every room and nook and crannie. He has never cried and loves everybody he comes in contact with. We have an appointment tomorrow am at the Vet. We are concerned about his ear not standing up. He has given no indication that it will. Lets hope that it eventually will. We all have bonded well and he is adored by both. he also seems as if he is pretty smart.
~Gene and Candy H. Melbourne, Florida

Hello Celeste!
It's been quite awhile since we've been in contact. Augie is nearing his 3rd brithday and is still a great and sweet kid...very healthy, wise and a great companion. He still enjoys his walks on the beach and evening walks through the neighborhood where he greets all of his friends: both animal and humankind.
I replaced the sofa that he was used to watching the world from and he adjusted just fine. I never told him not to get on the new chairs, but when he didn't, well, I was okay with that! He likes to sit on my lap when I am on a chair, but recently, to keep in touch with the outside world on his own, he has taken to standing upright and watching the world go by! He can do this for 5 or more minutes at a time. It's quite interesting to watch him stand there taking it all in!
I hope you, your Corgi and human family are all well.
Yours truly,
~Augie and Patrick O. Ormond Beach, Florida

Dear Celeste
Thank you for taking the time to meet with us. I really am grateful
for your patience. Spirit is doing great. She had been to my sisters and
nieces house first as to I was so tired that I spent the night, but now she
is home. It took a little time but you are right she definitely has a lot of spunk and spirit! She isn't quite sure of the other two dogs in my house at the moment but she stands her ground. Thank you so much for all that you have done allot of work went into getting all the paper work done and no other breeder that I have dealt with has done what you did as far as giving us all information from the time she was born. I will keep in touch with you to let you know how she is doing.
Happy New Year

Hi Celeste!
We are having so much fun with Manny! He already knows how to sit and lay down, we are now working on how to "rollover". The first two nights he didn't do that well in his pen, but now he sleeps through the night! Everyone comments on how cute he is, we love him! He will be going to work with Lindsay to play with the students once he stops teething. We are excited to teach him new tricks and watch him grow! Thanks for everything!
~Lindsay, Dave & Manny :) Tampa, Florida

Hello Celeste,
Thank you so much for Duke! He is a wonderful puppy and very, very smart. He was great on the 7 hour drive home, either sleeping, playing or taking a walk to go potty. He stayed right with me each time out of the car with no need for the leash and collar I brought along. He had great communication skills and barked if he wanted me to slow down or he needed to stop to go potty. He had no qualms about his 100 lb canine roommate, Zoku, my Akita, and let him know quickly that this was his house too. I took both dogs to a friend's house for a BBQ last night and Duke was Mr. In Charge, practicing his herding skills. Everyone was on the patio and in the backyard and each time someone went inside, he promptly herded them back outside with the rest of the guests where they belonged! I think I will have no trouble with those herding titles that will be soon to come. I loved your puppy pack and thought that the whole transaction was very professional. Duke had his first day at the horse stables today and handled everything as a very obedient and polite boy, especially to be only 8 weeks. He was respectful of the horses and very fast to listen to my directions. Another pleasing sign of great intelligence!!! I am attaching two photos, one of him with one of his toys on the couch and one of his introduction to one of my yearling stallions, High Caliber Action, fondly called "Bullet". More pictures to come later. I hope your husband is doing better. Take care and thanks again.

I just wanted you to know I am so very happy with my little boy, Romeo. He is such a joy to have around, always letting me know if something is making a noise by barking. He loves water and can't keep him out of water unless it is to give him a bath, then it is another story, he hates getting a bath. He guards Ein too, making sure she is ok all the time. When I say go to bed, off he goes to the bathroom, such a good boy. Thank you for allowing me to purchase him. I weigh close to 20 lbs. now and I am 6 months old.

First of all, we are totally in love with our little girl. She is so sweet and fun. So far so good with potty training, she only had one accident, and that was because I didn’t get her outside fast enough!! I’ve trying to take some cute photos, hopefully I’ll have some coming your way in the next couple of days. I’m babysitting a 4 month old Min. Pin, and Fidget is getting a workout. They chase each other round and round the living room.
I overheard you say something about Karl being sick. I hope he’s feeling better. I’ll be in touch soon.
~Cyndi R. Deland, Florida

Celeste,
Piper is doing wonderfully! She's very energetic and loves to investigate everything! Her favorite places are the one's she isn't allowed in.
Everyone is spoiling her rotten; she must have around 15 toys now. People just keep bringing her more stuff! She went to the vet last Monday (8/7) and they said she was very healthy. As for around the house, she lets us know when she really needs to go outside by barking at us and has been pretty good about not going in the house. She's learning the "sit" and "come" command now. She's very, very smart.
Thank you so much for such an amazing puppy! We all love her to pieces!
~Laura, Emily, Alan, and Julia

Hi Celeste,
The little Cheez-it (renamed from Cheesecake, it's a bit more manly) is doing great! He had no problems sleeping the whole ride to Jax and he seems to be pretty happy with his new pad. He spent a good 4 hours following the baseboards seeing everything there is to see before he finally started getting comfortable. Apparently he found a little spot under my coffee table where he likes to lay and hoard all of his toys. At least he picks up after himself. Were working on the potty training, he pee'd once inside, but that was the only time and only because I didnt get to him fast enough to let him out. Either he already has the idea of housebreaking or I just take him out at the right times. He is a healthy eater, and absolutely loves treats. I found that after about an hour of play, If I let him out and then bring him inside to his bed he'll take a nap for 2-5 hours. I slept 5 hours last night, but he was pretty good about going to sleep without a fuss. He also had his first bath and collar. He hates both of those things. The tag on the collar taps his chest and he hates it, he tries to chew it but cant quite reach it. He's doing very well, He seems perfectly healthy. I did have a chance to talk to my vet friend and she said that the inguinal hernia is common in female dogs, but can happen in males as a result of stress during birth usually. I wouldnt imagine it would be easy to birth 5-10 puppies anyway. My vet appointment is Monday at 9:30am, intrested to see how he handles it. I know at the very least he will hate the car ride because he cant really see whats going on. Im going to take my other car this time, it's alot quieter, mabye that will help him sleep. I will let you know how it turns out! Thanks again.

You are very welcome -- we are just so happy to have puppy feet again!! Neo did great on the way home, he whined a few times but then settled in for the trip. We swung by work and everyone LOVED him and he put on a show for everyone. We stopped by my boyfriends house too and one bark from his Lab sent Neo between my legs!! Today however was a different story, he followed him around (tried his hardest to keep up with him in the yard) and even showed Rocky that HE knew how to bark too. Later, he started playing with Rocky's tail, must have thought it was one of those chew ropes, we laughed and Rocky just sat there (he's a very understanding dog). We stopped by the vets office today, he passed his initial exam with flying colors and everyone loved him there too. Having no problem with the crate training, he even goes in on his own to sleep. He went to bed at 10, decided at 11 he needed to go out again, then slept until around 3 and was back up around 6:30. Matt has told me about three times now how we made a "great choice", the two of them are going to be best buds (and thank goodness he is old enough to help with the housebreaking). Tomorrow we'll see how camera shy he is cause if I don't go to work on Monday with pictures I'm going to be in big trouble. Take care and thank you again for a wonderful pup. Will keep in touch and send pictures!!

He is such a trip too!! For some reason, he hates the beginning of a walk but by the time we are done he is running around happy as can be. He also likes to pick up pine cones or a stick to carry with him. He's got the hang of fetch and will bring it back to me every time. We went out to see some friends who camp on the weekends -- one couple just recently lost their cocker spaniel and playing with Neo really made their day (and he curled up and took a nap under Tom's chair which made Tom so happy). My friend's grandson was out there and just loved him, walked him around on the leash with no problem (guess Neo was happy to have another short person to hang out with!!). He's doing great, he makes me laugh every day!!!

Hi, Celeste! Spencer is as cute as a button but loud as a fullsize Corgi. He slept for about three hours at a time last night. At least he slept today while I was napping. He is adjusting well but our other corgi is not happy at the moment. It will be fine. I am attaching a picture of Spencer in a quiet moment. I will send more when I have had more rest! Thanks again! We love the little scamp!

GoodDay, Celeste! Hope all is well. It has been quite
interesting here since Trixie came home. We were
worried the entire dive home that she would become car
sick, but she did not. She had moments where she slept
and others where she was trying to look out the
window. We put her harness and leash on prior to the
rest stop on 95 so we could take her for her potty
break. For walking on the leash for the first time,
she did so well. There was little or no resistance. Of
course everybody there wanted to pet her...how can
anyone resist?
Getting home was another story. Usually Xena(the
chubby one with claws is indifferent to new
people/animals. Onyx, the skinny one is usually ok
about new people and such.) Xena felt inclined to stay
near Trixie while Onyx attempted to scare her.
Thankfully Onyx is delawed, because she swatted at
Trixie a number of times. Trixie saw all her new toys
and new bed and was like a kid in the candy store.
Bed time was a little difficult for her as she hasn't
slept alone. She was placed in her crate with the
blanket she slept on for the ride home and had a new
rope toy in there with her. She was placed in her
crate but where she could see us. After about 5
minutes of crying and restlessness, she settled and
slept the entire night. Xena slept on the blanket
beside her crate. All night.
She has developed a bit of a routine to going outside
only having had 2 accidents(as I was putting my shoes
on). I think she has adjusted very well so far. Loves
going for walks outside. She even is mastering the
stairs and curb quite nicely. She steals the cats'
toys and chases Xena every where. She even licked
Xena's face without getting her face ripped off. Xena
has neither hissed at her or swat at her. She has a
pretty good understanding of sit, as anytime food is
in question, we will all behave and act appropriately!
Thanks again for such a beautiful, well-adjusted, dog
with such personality! Everybody she sees she loves!
We are so very happy! There are some pics attached
taken today. I will be adding more pics and I will be
posting on your site about Trixie.Take care and have a
great day.
All the best,
~George and Dawn M.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note, we visited our vet today, he loved Trixie and said she is one of the best looking puppies that he has seen in a long time. All is well on our end she is already sitting on command, working on other things now. Thats all for now, we will be sure to keep in touch. Take care.

Dexter had his first vet visit today and he got an A! Everyone at the office was gushing over him. He had a great weekend and we took a few pictures for you to enjoy. He's getting better and better each day with his 'potty training'.
We'll send you more as he gets even more cuter! =)

Hello!
I just want to let you know how Bexar is doing. He is a great little
boy - very intelligent, but very sassy, too. He talks a lot and
grumbles when he doesn't like something - its adorable. The last 4
nights he has slept through until 7:30 without waking me up to go
potty! I find that incredible. He sleeps in his crate and never
cries or whines, and he has never soiled it, either. He is learning
to go on short walks on the leash and is even good at that! There is
very little he can't do. He has definitely learned that I am the pack
leader. When I took him to the Vet last monday, he had a yeast
infection in his ears, so I have been using the medicated ear drops I
got from them and he HATES it. He's good about everything else - I
touch him all over every day. The vet loved your binder, too (as do I).
Okay, here are some pictures of the cutest puppy of the litter! The
first one (with the keys) was early last week, and the second was
yesterday. He's getting bigger!

Hello,
Bexar is doing great! He is a very smart boy. He always goes to the door when he has to potty, and has continued to sleep through every night. Training is going very well, too, he has a very large vocabulary - including Sit, Stay, Come, Hungry, Eat, Food, Run, Walk, Lizard (he loves chasing lizards), Grasshopper, Kissies... and some more that I can't think of right now. He is very talkative, and of course he is a naughty boy, too! So feisty!
I'll send the tag in the mail tomorrow - it has some bite marks on it, but I bet Bexar's real tag will too!
Attached are some newer pictures.
I hope the new litter is doing well!

Merry Christmas! Thank you for the Christmas ecard - we loved it! (Bexar is frapping as I write this)
Bexar is doing very well, he passed his Canine Good Citizen test a few weeks ago. We are keeping each other fit and busy, and he gets compliments everywhere we go (and I try to take him as many places as I can). I hope you and the Corgis are doing well! I am including a recent photo of Bexar and I, and I'll send a few more of Bexar in the near future.

Celeste,
Hey! How are you? Sorry it has been so long since we have sent you an update on Chance. Thank you for the birthday card for him! For his birthday, we got him a special treat, a new bed, and a doggie pool to play in! Also, back in August Chance got a new little sister. Ryan and I had been talking about getting a little girl from you, and then a friend called and said he knew someone who had a puppy that they couldn't take care of. We saw her and fell in love with her. Her name is Kairi and she is half chihuahua half corgi! I have attached a picture of her for you to see. How are all of your dogs/puppies? We weren't able to make it out to the corgi party last year, but we are definitely looking forward to it this year. Have you heard anything about the new location? Well, here are some pictures of Chance and one of Kairi. Thank you again for keeping in touch, and for Chance. He is absolutely hands down an awesome dog!

Hello Celeste,
Sam is doing great, she is almost 100% potti trained now and has gone for a lot of nights without an accident in her kennel. She's really intellegent and catches on to new words and commands quickly. We are currently learning "drop" at the moment but she understands her name, come, go inside, kennel, potti, and down pretty well, and of course No. She has been getting bigger and bigger, i have not gotten her wieghed yet and we need to set up an appointment for 2nd round of vaccinations soon. I think this is the 3rd week we will have had her so she is due.
Talk to you later~ Robert Jacksonville Fl.
