Jill waiting for her new family. Jill getting accquainted with her new family!

HUNTER

Sorry it has taken us so long to get back to you with news from "Hunter". We have absolutely fallen in love with this little guy. Everyone who meets him thinks he is absolutely gorgeous and wants to know where we got him. Don't be surprised if you don't start getting more calls from Whitecourt.

Hunter goes to work with my husband everyday, where the secretary spoils him rotten as does everyone else who walks through the doors. He is very smart and is learning very quick, you truly do have some remarkable lines going here. He started pointing from the very first day we brought him home and is already used to going to do his business in the bush away from the yard. Hunter has also made himself a permanent bed in the bedroom with my husband and I. He started out in our bed, which we both said would never happen, but has now graduated to his own bed on the floor beside us. I guess we are getting soft in our old age, as we also never had a dog live in the house before, oh well who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Hope all is well at your home and kennel and we will continue to keep in touch with stories and photos. Thanks again for bringing this little guy into our lives.

Michelle - Whitecourt,AB

Here are some pics of Morgan that I took yesterday at the off leash park, one of his most favourite places. He is now around 70 lbs at 9 1/2 months. There is a huge pond at the park but he hasn't tried swimming yet and but he is certainly going deeper and deeper each time. He is chasing birds, ducks, butterflies and pretty much everything else that moves. He is soo full of energy and personality. Morgan and our cat are slowly becoming more friendly but it will probably take some time before the game of chase stops. He is always soo happy and sometimes even looks like he is smiling. He is such a sweet pup and we love him soo much, even when he sneaks up on the bed at night. Sinead- Calgary, Ab.

Hope everything is going well. I wanted to send along a recent picture of Morgan from the dog park. He loves to run and fetch his ball as well as play with the all the other dogs. Now that everything is melting Morgan is loving all the puddles and of course all the mud that goes with it. Also we love checking out your website and seeing all the pictures. Thank you very much for such a great friend. Sinead and Kevin-Calgary.Ab.

Sorry it has taken me so long to send you a message. Morgan has been keeping us pretty busy. he was great on the drive back to Calgary, slept a lot of the way. The cold weather has made house training a little tougher as he is soo small, but he is doing well and not too many accidents. He hasn't been a fan of the crate so far, so has been sleeping with us and seems to like that very much. Good thing we are getting a bigger bed. Everyone just loves him and he is soo sweet. We are very happy. I have attached some pics of him in his halloween costume.

Well it took me long enough!! These were taken today. We are enjoying Lacey. She is very rambunctious and loves people. She is learning quickly though, she can sit, stay (for short periods), come (as long as there is no other interesting distractions) and lay down on command. She is lots of fun the kids are having fun with, but can’t understand why she won’t listen to them. I say ‘what goes around comes around!!” Hope all is well. Tara- Sherwood Park, Ab.

Thank you for the beautiful puppy. He is a great addition to our family. We will send better photos once we can get him to sit still.

Remember he was the shy cubby one in the back, but once we got home he really blossomed with such an out going personality. Smart as can be, he is using the indoor wee-wee pads and the outdoor dog run to "deposit". Eats like there is no tomorrow and is already 13 pound (at 8 weeks). Fetches and knows him name. Everyone loves him very much. Sharon, Jeff and family- Vegreville, Ab.

TUKER

I just thought I would email you some updated pictures of Tuker!! We're going to need a new camera soon with all the pictures we take of him. He loves his northern home....we still have snow and I'm not sure what he's going to do when we don't it's all gone! He loves the skidoo, and he's even been in the water that's melted around the edges of the lakes. He didn't even hesitate. He is so well mannered and great with people....we couldn't have asked for a better dog.

We may be passing through Edmonton in the beginning of July, and if time permits, we may take a drive up to meet you and show you Tuker.

Take care, and thanks again, Lisa

I thought I'd email a couple of pictures of Tuker. He is now almost 3 months old, and growing very fast. He's about 17 pounds now, and loves to go for walks. It's pretty cold here in Inuvik, and we were finding that he was starting to get really cold towards the end of the walks, so we bought him booties!! He's quite a character, and we love him so much!

thanks again, Lisa- Inuvik, Nt.

STELLA

Stella has arrived safe and sound, seems like a good traveller as she wasnt stressed much and was just laying at the back of the kennel when i took her off the flight. she is a pretty smart pup and is already peeing outside pretty good. ive attached a few pics of her. one more note, she was very shocked at the cold here and did not like going outside yesterday as it was already dark by the time we got her home. thanks once again and ill be sure to send more pics.
