LaDonna, I wanted to let you know that I picked up HuggyBear last night. He's doing fine, still a little unsure of his new surroundings. He's quite funny, actually! When he has to go potty or he's hungry he'll put his paws on my chest and stare at me! It's really cute! He slept with me last night and he laid his head on the pillow and slept just like I did! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know he's doing well! Thanks so much for everything! I'm taking him to the vet either Monday or Tuesday and I will mail you the agreement and vet check-up afterward. Again, thanks for everything! Shanna Shuler

Hi LaDonna, I thought I would send you an email and picture of the puppy we bought from you last April. Her name is Princess formerly Lousie 1, daughter of Jake and Lousie. We absolutely love her! She is extremely smart, well behaved, and has been so easy to train. I have attached a few pictures of her. She is like one our kids, and gets along well with all, although she loves picking on our cat Marshmellow. Thanks for a great dog! -- Brigitte Karns

Sully Hi LaDonna, I just have an inspiring story to tell you about our boy. My daughter works with a special needs young man( Andrew) every day and she has told him that she was going to bring Sully to visit him. Not only is this young man mentally challenged he also is in a wheelchair. I could not believe my eyes, we went Andrews special olympic baseball game last night and Sully was running around and as soon as he saw Andrew he wanted to get up on his lap. We put him on him and he just lays right down and turns and snuggles on him. Hannah said that he had been doing that all day with him. As soon as he got down he would cry to sit on his lap. Since working with Andrew my daughter has decided to be an Occupational Therapist ( she starts college in the fall) and has decided to incorporate animals in the mix to work with the patients. I think Sully would be a great dog for this. I just could not believe how compassionate and loving he was with Andrew. He knew not to be active while sitting with him. Im still so amazed. I gave Andrews Mom your website because Andrew kept saying he wanted a dog just like Sully. His Mom kept saying how calm and gentle he was but the funny thing is that when he wasnt on Andrew he was just a playful puppy. Simply amazing!!!!! Tracy

Hi LaDonna. We had to write you after we were looking at your website. We bought Wonka a wading pool at our previous house and had a little yellow rubber duck that we would throw in and he would immediately jump in the pool and take it out. Well we moved to a new house recently and have an actual swimming pool. Wonka will run around for hours and frantically take the rubber duckies out of the pool. It's so funny. He is so distressed if they are in the water. We couldn't understand his obsession with it and then we looked at your website.....and saw all the rubber duckies in with the puppies. We were all hysterically laughing. Incidentally Wonka is a VERY good swimmer. We never let him go outside near the pool alone of course but he plays with us in the pool and loves the water. He likes to ride around on the pool floats too. He continues to be hours of entertainment for us all. Attached a recent pic of him. Will have to take one of him out with his rubber duckies and send that to you. Hope all is well. Danette Wonka's Grandma

"Claude" To: "LaDonna Weaver" Tarragon, Cilantro & Sebby.JPG (1312KB) Sorry it has been so long to write back to you. Rowdy(now Cilantro) & Conway( now Tarragon) are doing well. My sister is a vet tech so she takes good care of them when we bring them to the vet. My kids love them and they get along great with the other two fawns that we have( Saffron & Sage). Sage & Tarragon have their moments(little tiffs) but they get a time out and they are okay. Thought I would send along a picture you can't see Tarragon real well. He is in his favorite spot up on the back of the chair. Well anyway thanks so much again. They are a great addition to our family. Thanks, Claudine

Hi La Donna, I just wanted to let you know how much we LOVE this dog!! He runs to our back door to pee & poop. He is AMAZING!!! You are a 5 star breeder. This dog is a dream. He fell asleep right at 6:00 on the nose, just like you said he would. I never thought when we got him, he would be such a perfect fit for my family. He is so sweet.I could write you all night on what a wonderful, professional, woman you are. I must go "Hug My Pug" so I will write you later. Many Thanks, Sherrie

Hi LaDonna, Just wanted you to know we are back in Texas and our baby, named Precious, is doing great. What a sweetheart to travel with. She slept all night last night and never cried once. She slept in my lap today most of the day or layed in my lap and chewed on her chewy toy. She potties outside just great, even did big potty outside last night. She had made a huge hit wherever we take her and has so much personality. Ron is taking her to the vet this week and I will be over there this weekend to go over the papers again and get some signed and back to you. Thanks so much for giving us so much joy. Linda and Ron P S She had a Schnauzner on the run yesterday, they played and played and the big dog could not keep up with her. We laughed until we cried it was so funny.

Hi Ladonna, We'd like to thank you for Paisley. At one years old, she's an affectionate superstar to everyone she meets. We can't walk past more than three or four people before someone new falls in love with her. If she was better trained, we'd seriously consider entering her into a contest. For a pug, she defies the traditional stout appearance. She's very lean and muscular, and surprisingly loves running. She's mischevous and loves running with the bigger dogs at the dog park, and well often have to remind her of her size. She also loves wrestling and howling with her daddy, and snuggling with her mommy. We couldn't have asked for a better girl. Enclosed is a picture we scanned of our girl with Santa. Enjoy! Sincerely, Christopher

Hi Ladonna, Charlie is here in Santa Cruz and doing very well. He is confident and has made him self at home. He is also growing very well and has a hearty appetite. We walk Charlie with the girls and he keeps up. We adore and love Charlie! So does Tily who has been a constant good friend and actually taken to mothering Charlie. I am very proud of Tily and appreciate her looking after "Little man". I used to call Charlie "bat boy" because he hadn't grown into his eyes and really looked like a bat. Right now Charlie is laying next to Randy sound asleep. Here is a picture of Charlie, Tily and Sassy at the Santa Cruz Harbor. (me too) Ladonna, could you tell me what shots are next for Charlie and what is the timing for them? I know you sent the information but I would appreciate your advise. Hope you are having a good 2010 and I look forward to hearing from you. Your friend, Carol
