| 11-20-06 How are you guys? I'm doing well! Mom and Dad say I'm such a good puppy -energetic when playing, but when it is not play time - so calm and relaxed. I play with Josie, the neighbor's dog, almost every day. She is good to me. Every so often she has to put me in my place though. Every morning I go upstairs with Mom to help wake Spencer and Dalton. I get to lay with both of them for 10 minutes or so. I'm very good - I just lay close to them and enjoy being petted. The kids constantly tell me how cute I am. The family cat has finally decided that I'm okay. I think she even likes me. I've been to the groomer one time and did well. I don't think I will go all of the time. I just hear Mom say she wants me to be used to the groomer - so when I do need to go (maybe two or three times a year) I will be used to it. Last weekend Mom rented "The Trial of Old Drum" and we all watched it. They seem to watch a lot of movies with golden retrievers, dogs, cats, etc. Mom still picks me up'and carries me around some. Soon she wont be able to pick me up. I went to the vet on Saturday for a puppy visit. I weighed 31 pounds and am doing well. Happy Thanksgiving! Love, Bentley |
| Hi George, Sorry I missed you last week when you brought the papers by for our puppy. Just wanted to let you know she is doing really great. She hasn't messed in her kennel for the last 4 days, and has made it up to 6 hours during the evening without major whining. My daughter, who was wanting a pup for Christmas, was crying the night we showed her Allie. Allie seems to be very smart....maybe too smart at this point! She is already climbing up and down the steps going to our second floor and is extremely coordinated (I think) for her age. So far so good with her, although my wife & I are a little out of practice having a puppy to care for; it's been 24 years since we have. Your girlfriend said you would be interested in her progress, so I thought I'd drop you a note. Happy Holidays, Steve Hausmann |

| We thought you might like to see how our puppy is doing. His name is Duke and he is the BEST dog ever. He gets so much love and attention from the kids. He has made a new friend in our dog Molly, who is a Westie. She keeps him in his place. We are waiting until Duke grows a little more and shows her who is boss. He was very timid the first few days and still is very docile for a puppy. He listens well and we think he won't be too hard to train. He has a few accidents but for the most part has done really well with the housebreaking. Thanks again for the AWESOME dog. |
| This big guy of Daisy's went home with this cutie-pie. |
| This page is to show how the puppies we've sold are doing. Updated Sept. 14, 2008 |
| These 2 girls went home with 2 different families on Dec. 30th. This was their first time in the house since they were 3 wks old. |
| Molly went to my niece for Christmas. We surprised her on Christmas Eve. 3 mos. |
| Razzle went home with this nice family on New Year's Eve. |
| Just look at those smiles! |
| George and Carolyn, Thank you so much for your great kennel. Christmas went wonderfully. The kids were very surprised and loved Holly from the start. Holly has become a big part of the family. She has already met her doctor and did very well. She still needs a little work on the house training. She will get there. She has a very good disposition. Cheryl has referred someone at work to you. Hopefully they will be as successful as we were. Hope you enjoy the pictures attached. If there is a problem seeing them, let me know and I will mail them to you. Best wishes and God Bless, Jeff and Cheryl Kalbac (and Holly) |
| We kept Holly until Christmas Eve so the kids would be surprised on Christmas morning. The parents were so excited just to finally get to take her home. |
| Here is another update on Duke. He is 3 months old now and growing like crazy. I am pretty sure he is three times the size as when we got him. (has it really only been one month!!) He has already learned how to give paw and lay down. He is doing great with the housebreaking, only an occasional accident when we are not paying enough attention to him. He hates his kennel, so he has been sleeping either in our bathroom or right next to our bed. He loves constant attention which is not a problem with all the kids. He is just the BEST!! We love him so much. I am trying to talk Mike into a Valentine puppy. I already know which one I want. I am afraid we could not be so lucky twice. He is too good of a dog. THANKS AGAIN!! The Larivees |
| Hello! Wanted to give you an update on our Sparky. We picked him up the week before Christmas - have the 3 yr old twins & 5 yr old, in the red Suburban. Sparky is doing great! He is really a good boy. Took him to the vet a couple of weeks ago and he was impressed with what a good dog he is. We have to be more concerned about someone stealing our dog and not so much the kids! Everyone passed him around like a baby at our Christmas party. He's a big hit. Will try to send you a picture soon. I see you've updated your website - cute puppies but one's enough. I know if anyone we know wants a golden we're sending them your way. Potty training went good - it required more training on our part. Thanks again for breeding such an awesome dog. Steve, Kathy, Jake, Dillon & Nathan |
| Hello, I just wanted to drop you a little note an let you know that Copper is doing well. The two boys get along great. Dallas (our 4 year old golden) has really made housebreaking easy. Dallas sleeps by coppers kennel at night and they play all day. The kids love to feed him and take him outside. They keep asking when we will allow him to sleep with them and I told them it will be soon. They hate when he has to go in his kennel. Here are a few pictures that we took the night that we returned home. I also just wanted to say thanks for letting santa dropped him off early. The kids still talk about it!!! I'll send you some snow pictures from the other day soon. Copper just loved the snow, they chased the kids up and down the hill while they were sledding and loved walking through the woods on our snow walk. I'll send the other pictures soon. Thanks again for a wonderful addition to our family!!! The Underwoods!!! Amy Underwood |
| The ride home was wonderful. Ginger is a well behaved girl. However, I am pretty sure she is already spoiled, we all love her soooo much. She had so much personality! We love the way she gently grumble/growls when we love on her, it is soo cute (kinda like when you are hungry? Not sure how to explain the noise!, But it’ s cute) We have fallen in love! I have included a couple of pictures. One of her first night in her crate, and one with her Big Brother Holden, who worships the ground her paws tread on! Thank you for our baby! |
| Hi George and Caroline, We have been on your website quite often, and we LOVE it!! Mike and I have seriously been talking about getting a female Golden. We were wondering when you were planning another litter. Is there a way to let you know ahead of time so that we could be assured a female? The whole family was so happy to see that Duke’s brothers got a home. We love to watch the progress of the puppies and see the other one’s that have been adopted. Keep up the good work!! Thanks, Mike and Jenny Larivee |
Hello George!
I know it has only been one day, but Mya Maybelle (Mya for short) seems to be adjusting to her new
home quite wonderfully. I think she woke Danny and I up every hour last night, and of course all she
wants to do today is sleep. She is such a sweetheart and she is spoiled rotten already. We love her so
much. Thank you for our new baby girl.
We will send you updated pictures, so you and Carolyn can see how much she is growing.
Thank you again, Danny, Katie and Mya

Hi George, this is Jeff Webster. Robin and I are so happy with Bailey!! Tomorrow he will be 8 weeks
old. He is been so good and growing fast. Even when he is big, he will still be our lap dog. Potty
training has been going very well, he is smart. He is already playing fetch with tennis balls, just gets
sidetracked after a couple of throws, so many other things to do. We will send some pictures soon!!
Thanks again for everything! I see that Lace's puppies are sold, I'm sure they will all be as sweet as our

Hi Carolyn & George,
Hope you are doing well!
We just wanted to give you an update on Weaver and share
some photos with you.
He is doing great! We were a little concerned that a 3 1/2 month
old puppy would be more set in his ways on the farm, and not
transition as well as a younger puppy. On the contrary. Weaver
was right at home from the start! House training has been
relatively painless. He has slept through every night since the
beginning, which is amazing to us. And he's so smart. After just
10 days, and some time commitment on our part to work with
him, he already knows sit, down and leave it. He's walking fairly
well on a leash. Sure, he has some puppy moments--but if he
didn't, he wouldn't be a puppy. :)
I also want to say how good he is around kids and people in
general. He's very calm, doesn't jump or snap...really a polite
young man!
We are bummed that we already have to leave town for a few
days and will need to board him. But the good news is he'll be
enrolled in a "Board n' Train' at Kennelwood Village--so he will
be well educated upon our return (not to mention, he'll enjoy
daycamp and yappy hour). So being apart will probably be harder
on us than it is on him.
Thanks again for bringing us together with such a wonderful little
fellow. We'll send you some photos from time to time as he grows.
In the meantime, enjoy the photos. I'll send them one-at-a-time
to hopefully speed up the download process. This close-up really
shows the little "weave" on his nose.
Take care and God bless,
Jay & Kathy Broska

Hello George and Caroline,
I just had a spare moment and
wanted to drop a line to tell you that
words can not express how happy we
are with the puppy, Rebel, that we
adopted from you guys. Rebel is
going to the vet today for his 8 week
check up and to tell you the truth it is
hard for me as the parent to believe
he is only 8 weeks. Rebel is already
just about potty trained, he already
goes to the door and whines when he
needs to go out and has never messed
in his kennel. I thought that the first
night was going to be ruff with it
being his first night away from his
family but he was a champ. Maybe
Rebel was the wrong name for us to
pick, he has truly been a blessing.
However when Tyler and him get
going, they are both rebel's, one is
always testing the limits! Rebel has
adjusted very well to his "new" two
legged brother (as you can see from
the truck picture)! Tyler goes to bed
asking about his dog and it's the first
thing that comes out of his mouth in
the morning. It has been a great joy
watching the two of them the past two
weeks and I am looking forward to
the future as I watch them grow and
become best friends, if they are not
already!
As I have said words are not enough,
thank you for a wonderful dog! WE
will keep in touch!
Sam, Tyler and Rebel

Hello George and Carolyn,
I couldn't wait to send you some updated pictures of Mya. She is getting so big, fast. She was 13.8lbs
at her 9 week visit to the vet. She will be 3 months old on 3/13/07, and she is already 20lbs.
She is so wonderful and her and Kenzie(the cat) get along great these days. The potty training is
coming along wonderfully. There are few accidents these days and she is finally sleeping through the
night.
Mya loves to play, and she especially loves it outside with the other dogs. All of our neighbors have
dogs and she loves to run up-and-down the fence with each of them. Sometimes it is hard to even get
her to come inside. Danny and I have taught her to sit, shake and play fetch. She catches on quickly,
especially when there is a treat involved.
I hope you enjoy the new pics of Mya and I am sure there will be more to come in the future. Thank
you again for such a wonderful little girl. We love her so much.
We hope to hear from you soon, Danny, Katie and Mya

| Hi George and Caroline, We thought you would like to see how Duke is growing. He is absolutely the most beautiful dog ever!! We love him so much. He is awesome with the kids and he has been very easy to train. He loves to cuddle in bed with whoever will let him in. You can see how much our daughter loves him. He helps her go to sleep every night. We will keep you up to date with him as he grows. Thanks again!! The Larivee's |
| Here, Molly is around 6 mos. She looks just like her mama, Satin. |
| This is Molly with her older "sister" Gracie. They just love each other. |
| Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2007 12:07 PM Hello George and Carolyn Here are some pics of molly playing with her sister (lol) chewing on the same bone almost everyday they do this. They are great together. We all enjoy Molly Mae very much her nickname is goofy. She has the best personality. She is just now starting to bark at the neighborhood dogs before she would hide under the kitchen table. She is a blast. Love always, Sis |
| Many thanks to everyone who has sent us updates! We would love to see more updates of all of the puppies we have sold in the past, just recently, and in the future. PLEASE, keep those letters and pictures coming! |
Hi Carolyn & George,
It's been awhile, so we wanted to write with a quick update on our
bundle of
love--Weaver--who is now 7+ months old.
Long story short, we love him to pieces. He is such a great dog (our
trainer describes
him as "compliant")--and he still likes to follow Jay around the
yard, picking up sticks or
whatever he can! It always reminds us of how you said he followed
George around the
farm.
He has an awesome personality and continues to be great with
kids. Even though he's
bigger now, he still politely sits when children pet him--and you can
almost always count
on him rolling on his back for a belly rub. The funny thing is--while
his training has taught
him a lot--he has been wonderful with kids and grown-ups ever
since we brought him
home. He's just a good natured dog--period.
A few photos attached: one is his first hike, the other two are from
this weekend. We
just opened our pool, and Weaver decided that he needed a chair
just like mommy &
daddy. That's why those two pictures are called, "it's a dogs life."
(You can still see the
weave on his nose!)
All the best. Hope you are both during well.
Take care,
Jay & Kathy (and Weaver)

Here is a recent picture of
Bentley. He turned one on
Aug.5th. He is doing great!
We all enjoy him so much. He
doesn't like the heat at all. Of
course, neither do we.
He goes outside as little as
possible. Usually we exercise him
early in the AM and lated in the
Pm.
Thanks for such a wonderful dog!

Hello,
Just thought that I would send you
some pictures of Copper. He is doing
great, out of his chewing stage, but
loves his tennis balls. If you don't
throw the ball to him he will drop the
ball in your lap and sit there looking
all sad until you throw it. He is so
much fun and full of energy. Thanks
again for this wonderful part of our
family!!!

| Hi George! I can't believe how long we've had Sparky. He just turned one in September. He is such a good dog. Everyone just falls in love with him. In fact, Steve's cousin might be calling you. Everyone met Sparky at the reunion in May and wondered where he was last weekend. Think I have three relatives that said they would take him a heartbeat. The boys of course love him to pieces. He's such good sport and puts up with all the craziness around here with three boys. Thanks again for such a great dog! Steve & Kathy Salas & the boys |

Hi George & Carolyn,
We adopted our Golden, Weaver, from you in Feb. 2007. We still visit your web page every now and
then to see what cute puppies you have, and we think of you often because we are so blessed to have
such a great dog. (We sometimes wish we had just taken two at once--but Weaver is a bit spoiled
now being an only dog!) Anyway, we know how you enjoy updated photos, so wanted to pass these
along. Weaver is the sweetest dog. He keeps life interesting with his antics (he is now a master at paper
fetching), and he is SO good with kids. Enjoy the photos. Hope this finds you well.
