Hi Karri ...
Well it's been a while and Simon is doing just great! 8 months old and 57
lbs... I have a pony evolving right before my eyes! He was just neutered and had a gastropexie and he's doing
perfect. Thought I'd send you a few photos. FYI his billirubin tests on the high side however
his liver functions perfectly.
Hope you're well,

Hi Karri,
I just wanted to drop you a note regarding our puppy Woody, nee Baby Ruth. I have never had a puppy so perfect! He has everything: a wonderful temperament, intelligence and gorgeous features. Everyone just marvels at his loving eyes. He's perfect on the leash, in fact he'll grab the leash in his mouth and take me for a walk. It's very cute. He loves other dogs and people of all ages. He is just a pleasure in every way.
At our last check-up our vet recommended that we wait until he's at least 8 months old to have him neutered.
Keep up the good work! Your breeding program is fabulous.
Sincerely,
Kathy Sherman

Hi Karri!
I have been waiting to write all week but I have been busy with my baby! She is AWESOME!!!!!! She slept on my lap to Kalamazoo last week, then I carried her in to the petstore to fit her for a collar. The manager there feel in love with her! She then slept the rest of the way home. She acted like she has always been here. Our Winchester loves her! Finally someone who will play with him and not the tiny poodles! She gets along great with them all. My look alike is not very hapy with her. When Jolie tries to play with her, Cami sits close to her and pets her on the nose! I have got to get a picture!!!! The first night I was hoping she would be ok in her crate, I put her next to Sofie. But she did not like it one bit! She cried and cried. I took her out at 1:30, then put her back. Then she cried and cried somemore. My husband got up at 4:30 grumbling how he isn't getting any sleep, so I took her out again and then we laid on the couch and slept till 6:00. Then everyone was up, Jim takes them out before he leaves for work. Well then I took her to bed. She was great as long as I held her. So the second night I figured I would make it easier on all of us and took her to bed! She slept all night! Wed. My husband put her back in her crate and she cried a little and slept till 5 when Gracie decided to bark at the newspaper lady. Now Jolie goes in her crate all by herself. She loves to lay in my lap, and I know it won't last forever that she will fit, but I figure at least part of her will always fit. We went out to eat today and was gone about 6 hours, she did not make a mess at all in her crate. She loves to run in the yard, I walk her all around. We went by my pond and she looked at the fish and before I could get her started in the water. I caught her with only her front feet wet. Tonight I let her run with Winchester and she headed there again! I m going to put a gate around it. Hopefully she will learn not to go in! She is so laid back and I hope she stays that way! She goes to the vets Tuesday and if he ok's it I am going to start her in a puppy obedience class. I found a clicker class that just started, but am going to wait till the next one in Feb.
I just want to tell you, you have rasied a fantastic pup! I thank the Good Lord, I found you. Things always happen for a reason!
Thank you again she is wonderful.

update
Hi Karri,
Jolie knew her name when she came here made it so easy. She
is really growing! When she went to the vets she weighed in at 14.5 pounds and She starts puppy training Monday. Then I am going to
Arizona to see my sister and niece for 10 days. On sept. 27 my great nephew died, he wad only 19. I am going to miss Jolie but need
to go. I hope she will be good for my husband! He has been gone for almost 2 weeks hunting in Colorado. He will be so surprised how
much she has grown. I can not believe how sweet and good she is. Super smart! I was carrying her out, but she is big so I have been
putting her on a leash. She never bothered with it, acted like she always had one! And she has learned to sit for me to put it on
and take it off. I am also working with her to sit and wait till I tell her to come out. She is learning.
Well I could obviously
talk about her forever, she is great! I will send more pictures soon.

Hello,
Here are some pictures of Zayda at 6 months before and after her haircut. She is still very dark chocolate after she gets a haircut. She has been a really good dog.
She is very friendly and loves to lick and chew everyone she meets. My friend is a dog trainer and about every other week she takes Zayda to use as a demo dog and she does better than the dogs in the class, and trust me I don't have time to train at home, she's just so smart that she remembers and catches on very quickly.
Thanks,

Hi Karri,
We want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and give you an update on Snickers. First of all, thank you so much for allowing us to be Snickers parents....we just adore him and he has been such an amazing addition to our family. He is such a smart, sensitive, and funny little boy. He is such a goof and has so much fun running around our yard and house chasing the cat (who we think actually loves the attention from Snickers). Snickers got his first haircut this week and since he looks so cute, we wanted to send you a picture. Up until this point we let his hair grow long and we called him our little 'rasta-farian' puppy because his hair looked like dreadlocks. Everybody that sees him comments on what beautiful and expressive eyes he has.
Hope you are well and we look forward to seeing more pics of your poodle litters on the website!
Best,
Natalie and Conrad Riggs
