| Sept. 22, 2008 Hi George, I was wanting to write you and tell you how much we love Abby. Abby is from Cinnamon and we got her on November 18, 2007. She is a joy to have and very smart. My 18 month old daughter just can't get enough of her. We're actually thinking about getting another one. Abby is very good with my daughter. About 2 weeks after we got Abby she already knew how to play fetch. I threw her the ball and she brought it right back with out even calling her for it. Everyone loves Abby. We're moving pretty soon and we are thinking about getting another. So if we do, we will surely be back. Thanks for everything. Kristine. |

| March 3, 2009 George and Carolyn, It has been nearly four months since we brought home our Lacey, named after her Mama Lace. We have all fallen in love with her! She has really fit in with our 2 yr old Australian shepard mix female, Sydney, and they really have fun running around the back yard together. She has really grown and turned into such a pretty girl. I have attached a few pictures so you can see how much she has grown and changed. We still keep her in her cage while we are at work and school during the day, but I always come home for lunch so she can run around the back yard for awhile. She sleeps at night with our youngest son and Sydney. She really is a great girl and we are so pleased with our decision to add her to our family last fall. She is so fun to watch grow and learn things all the time. She always does something new to give us a laugh. Wishing you all the best and wanting to thank you again for Lacey. Take care, Barras Family Troy, IL |

| Dear George and Carolyn, This e-mail is long overdue. We adopted the #5 female from Dumplin’s litter that was born on Thanksgiving (11.27.2008), and we brought her home on January 10, 2009. Her registered name will be Golden Lady Liberty and we call her Libby. I just wanted to say how much we have enjoyed having her as the newest addition to our household. Housebreaking was a breeze, no doubt due to how you raise your litters. Other breeders we visited kept their puppies on concrete floors until they went home with their new families. Libby has had a clean crate and we have had no accidents in the house since she was 8-9 weeks old. Our older Golden (Bella) took some time to adjust to having a new ball of energy in the house, but they are now getting along like sisters. Libby is now 16 weeks old and weighs 20 pounds. She is such a quick learner. Without any puppy classes she knows “sit” and “paw” and she has been playing “fetch” since she was about 8 weeks old. Her FAVORITE treat is ice cubes. We are now feeding her 4 cups of food a day. She must have a high metabolism because there is not an ounce of fat on her! She is already showing signs that Dumplin’ is her mama because Libby loves to dig her nose into everything -- my potted dogwood, under the dog beds and bath rugs! She also loves to play with her toys while lying on her back, just like her daddy Jacob. We did have some trouble getting rid of some parasites, but as of last night’s vet visit we have a clean bill of health! I've attached a collage showing a few of my favorite pictures of Libby as she has grown. Note the older ones are of her sleeping because when she is awake she is too quick to catch on film! :) I’ll send more updates and pictures as she continues to grow. We have told several of our friends how impressed we were with your setup and the relationship you have with your Golden Retrievers. I frequently check the website to follow up with all the litters until they all were sold...and can't wait to see these next ones go! It was a joy to meet you, Jacob, and all the girls. Thank you again for all you do and for blessing our house with such a wonderful family member. Love, Kirk & Carrie Hammond O’Fallon, Missouri |

| WOW! I just love these collages! They are so cool! Thanks guys! |
| This is very exciting for us to be able to add a 6th page of our customer's wonderful comments about our golden retriever puppies. It really shows that the Golden Retrievers we produce have exceptional personalities....and also that we draw exceptional people to care for the puppies we sell. It gives us a sense of great peace. Thank You. |



| Libby, Libby, Libby and more Libby! |
| Everyone will be happy to know that Sandy has a new loving home, complete with 12 grandchildren, waiting for her. Matt e-mailed me, and I am sure with great sadness, said that she is going to her new home this weekend. |
