I have almost picked up the phone a hundred times in the last 3 weeks to tell you how much i love this
puppy. She is absolutely delightful. I am enclosing a couple pictures from her first christmas and i hope that your holidays
have been as happy as ours. Thanks for getting her used to kisses. I always think of you saying " I could just eat them
up" that is exactly how i feel. Jill and Dick knowles.

I JUST HAD TO SHOW THIS TO EVERYONE I'M SUCH A PROUD MAMA 10/07/07
Dear Mama Patty, I
wuv you so much and I haven't forgotten you. I've been wanting to write to you for a long time but Walter and Sarah
have been too busy to help me. They sure do lead a busy life and it just about wears me out trying to keep up with them! I
guess they like to spend a lot of time outdoors "cause they're always running out to the yard with me--and at the
craziest times too--right in the middle of the night sometimes!
But I do like their yard. It has lots of trees, grass,
bushes and some great smells! There's so much to explore, I don't think I'll ever get around to checking out all
the sticks, stones and leaves--it's a mighty big job! At first Sarah let me run around wherever I wanted to go, but now
that I can run fast, she makes me wear a lead. She's not too fast on her feet so I have to slow down sometimes and
let her catch up with me. I like her a lot but she can be pretty stubborn. Sometimes she just refuses to go in the direction
I know we should. Mostly we stay in the backyard, but sometimes we take a really long hike--all around the whole house and I
get to look at the neighbor's yard. The neighbor's two big dogs barked real loud at me today. They were behind a fence,
but i wasn't taking any chances so I made a bee-line for my back porch and the door I always use. I knew exactly how to
get there and I even made it up the tree brick steps without any help from Sarah--aren't you proud of me??
I think
Walter really loves me a whole lot. He's been spending every night with me in the family room. At first I slept on the
floor between his feet or right under the sofa, but last night I spent the whole night sleeping in my CRATE. Walter and I
did make that trip to the yard a few times, but then he put me right back in the crate. I've got to tell you I didn't
like it one bit when he first put me in there last night and I had plenty to say about it! I tried everything I knew
to talk him out of it, and used my most pitiful-looking faces, but he just wouldn't change his mind. I finally decided
to humor him, and I just went to sleep! (I think Sarah had been trying to prepare me for this, cause she kept putting me in
the crate during the daytime.) You know, it's funny. They think I need pads and blankets to sleep on, but what I really
like best is to just sleep on the floor.
I got acquainted with my doctor last week. She said I was "just precious
and beautiful" and since she's a professional, I guess it must be true! Anyways, I gave her and all the other ladies
there kisses. She says I weight amost 5 lbs now!
I've met a lot of nice people here--the lady neighbor came to visit
and another family from Walter and Sarah's church came just to meet me! I had the most fun with Michael, the "yard
man", cause he knows how dogs like to play.
I want you to know how much I 'preciate all the love and attention
you gave me. It's helped me to be happy with Walter and Sarah. You know you really have to be patient while people learn
how to be "dog parents." I think I'll have them well-trained before long.
Love and kiss, "Ginger"

The spunky monkey is doing just that...being a spunky monkey. He's into everything!!!! We named
him Chester and we're having lots of fun with the little guy. His vet visit checked out great and the vet was amazed with
the paper work you gave us. We love spunky monkey (chester) and his personality.

I thought you might like an update on Deuce. He had his second set of shots yesterday as well
as his Kennel Cough since he will be enrolling in basic obedience training in 2 weeks. He is already sitting on command, learning
how to heel on a leash. He has also taught himself push open the screen door so we have to keep a watch on the little escape
artist. Everyone remarks on his color and his green eyes. He's a wonderful boy and were training for search and rescue
now. I see his picture is on your web site. Good luck and we will visit soon. Leigh

Hey Patty, Galileo & Amelia are doing just great. We took them to the Vet yesterday and

Bella's doing great. Brought her to the vet today who LOVED her especially
her magnificent temperment. Said we can feed her a bit more which she loves. Today she and Boston squared off with each other
from across the yard, both with ears raised and tails perked at attention...then they charged at one another with giant labby
smiles and Bella literally did one of those football things where she went head over heels, landed on her back, and without
missing a beat jumped on Boston and began chewing on his cheek. Man, we could charge a fee to watch these two play! I can't
wait until she gets a bit bigger (actually I can, since I like holding my little baby and smooching her nose).

9/8/07 Hi Patty, I hope all the dogs aren't
keeping you too busy:) I went to my first Vizsla show today, and met the board members for the Vizsla club of Greater New
York. They LOVED Spartan. Even though he's young they say he has one of the best structures they've ever seen. They
raved about everthing from his coat and color, to having no white spots, to the size of his monstrous paws, and his thick
muscled chest...basically you produced an AWESOME dog!!!! Anyways, I'm joining the Vizsla club as well as the North American
Versatile Hunting Dog Association and both groups after seeing Spartan have encourged me to go with a full registration so
that i can participate in AKC sponsored events.... Thanks so much Jim

9/24/07 Hi Patty! Kimberly just downloaded some new pictures of Boomer from the last week or so... thought
you might like to see how big he has gotten. He is doing really great... took to the crate training like a champ and is
doing well with some basic commands (sit, stay, Shake). The kids just love him.. he is the friendliest dog i have ever seen.
Just wants to run right up to every person or dog he sees!!! Hope you are doing well - Richard Heller

9/29/07 Patty, it was a pleasure meeting you, your husband and all your dogs today. I have to
say I was impressed by your facilites as well as your puppies...it was a tough decision for me today... they all looked very
happy and healthy. I know we spoke today about putting the puppy on the same food as Cody is on but do you think that's
too much Protein? Just let me know and I look forward to seeing you again on the 15th. Thanks again, Will

10/1/07 Good Morning! She is doing great!! We have named her Penelope and we are going to call her
PENNY. She has been an absoulte dream. She has not whined at night or gone to the bathroom in the crate. I think she gets
so worn out during the day with all the playing and exploring that she just crashes at night. She even goes and gets in the
crate willingly. Right now she is at work with me, sleeping under my feet as I type this email to you. I can't tell
you how grateful I am. Thank you so much and don't worry she is in loving hands. Heather

10/04/07 Dear Patty, thank you so much for Alfred. His little Corgi butt does drive me nuts. He really
is the light of our life. He has been a joy to be with ever since we picked him up. He has made our family complete. I would
recommend your puppy love farm over any others by far. You can tell Alfred was well taken care of and extremely loved by you.
He has been an absolutely perfect addition to our family. He has been for his first check-up at our local vet, he was perfect...like
we thought! I think everyone in the place came out to see him. They all said he was very well behaved and extremly handsome.
I really wanted you to see how much he has grown in such a short period of time and as you can see from the pictures he likes
to sleep in some pretty funny positions. He is a cutie for sure! I really appreciate yours and your husbands hospitality when
me and my husband picked up Alfred. Super experience for us all the way around!
Thank you again Patty

sandracullinan@knology.net 10/08/07 Patty, I have to say, meeting you on saturday was a complete thrill for our family! We are really excited
that we have made the decision after 3 years to increase the size of our family. Adding one of your puppies was a big step
as we were not sure we could do it again after losing our precious Bogey in 2004. Trying to keep the puppy a suprise was too
hard so we told Caroline and Elizabeth that Mommy and Daddy were getting them one for christmas. WOW!! You should have seen
their precious faces. Elizabeth cried all the way home because she wanted to take that little corgi home. I tried to explain
to her that that particular baby was flying to Florida to be with another family. Thanks for a wonderful experience. You have
definitely named your puppy farm appropriately as it is truly full of love! Thank you for taking the time to spend with us!

Hi Patty, Some new pics for you of Bella!
This little girl
is VERY SMART, no I mean SCARY SMART ok? (My vet confirms this--feels she should be a full out service dog and that she's
gonna be "bored" being my office therapy dog!!! What nerve!!!) Anyways, check this out, besides starting to learn
to open her crate with her teeth and tongue by squeezing the two very small handles together, she has also figured out, among
other things, how to get the last bits of food out of her bowl.... no she doesn't chase the bowl all over the kitchen
floor like most other dogs would do, nope this little girl takes the bowl in her mouth and turns it over to pour out the last
couple kibbles. Scary....
Also if she identifies something of interest on part of our property, it doesn't matter
if it's minutes, hours or days later, she'll run out directly back to that spot and pick up from memory exactly where
she left off.....
I'm starting to feel guilty about just making her a lowly old therapy dog...should I be donating
her to GuideDogs???..... yeah, right....sorry but I'm not THAT good hearted!!!
af92@nycap.rr.com UPDATE 10/06/07
Exciting new! Today I ordered Bella's "THERAPY DOG" vest! It should be here in about
a month. Meanwhile she'll be coming to the office with me starting with Saturday mornings as she continues her basic abedience

come pet her... she's just got that kind of face!!! Take care and continued thanks. SEE BELLA ON THE LAB PAGE

10/30/07 Hi Patty, Just thought I'd pass along some pictures of Maggie. She's fit in nicely and given
our older dogs a little playfulness. She is with Daddy at the beach, with Andy our son and with her big brother Buster. She's

She is such a super doggie! Dixie is a 70lb lab dog. She has been bird hunting with Charlie a couple of times and knew just
what to do. She continues to enjoy her trips to the beach and playing in the ocean and waterway. Would love to bring her by
sometime so you can see how beautiful she really is. Our cat Baxter and Dixie play constantly, but Dixie doesn't want
Baxter to receive any attention from us. She truly is the best dog ever!!! Take care and Merry Christmas Cathy Gwynn

1/30/08 Hi Patty I picked up a puppy on December
29 th. I am from Middletown, Delaware. I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with our weim/female. She has grown so
much and has a great personality. She went to the vet for the first time this past weekend. My vet was very excited to see
a baby Weim come through the door. He said, they haven't seen a baby weim in years. I can't tell you how much we love
her. My lab Zeike is having a blast with her, they start playing in the morning and it doesn't stop until she goes into
her kennel at night. I just wanted to let you know how excited and happy we are with the most beautiful bred dog. I will send
you some pics of her soon. Thank you so much. Your doggy friend from Delaware Tracy.

2/7/08 Hi Patty, Just checked out your web site..... It looks great. We are all doing very well. We
took Dugan and Cassey to Petsmart last weekend for the food and they both weighed almost 90lbs. And they are not fat!! Casey
is actually the biggest of them all, but definitely has the most personality. I swear she "talks" with her eyes....
She is my girl, that's for sure. I have become so attached to all of them I just don't know what I would do if anything
ever happened to them!!! I'll tell you Casey has a mind of her own, she is like a little princess.. ALWAYS has to lay
on a pile of pillows, does NOT like to be scolded and she will pout if you have to. She doesn't often do anything that
requires and discipline though. She is very well behaved. I am looking into taking her for therapy dog certification.... she
would be perfect for it. She adores people. Pictures on lab page. Thank you THE HECKS

I do have some in the house. I keep forgetting to take the camera outside. She is WONDERFUL!!!! Everyone loves her so much

she poops out at night and just curls right up like a baby. I love it!!! Thank you so much, she is the best. Well check out
the pictures and I will continue to send more as she grows up. Take care Tiffany, Eric and Kirra

2/26/08 Dear Patty, We think of you often and wanted you to see what a pretty girl Izzy has become,
the happiest and friendliest dog I've ever had. Quite spoiled as you can see she has her own chair in my living room-takes
up most of my bed at night. She loves to retrieve the tennis ball the most, each day we walk 2 1/2 miles in the park where
Izzy loves to meet and make new friends at every opportunity. I plan to take her to the beach in April for her first trip
to the ocean!!! As you remember, she's turning three in July. Best to you and her Mom and Dad. Love Ann & Izzy May

3/2/08 Hi Patty, we just thought we'd send
along a few pictures of Mika the corgi puppy we got from you this past december. He's a complete joy. We put him through
a puppy training class and he did great, he's got the commands sit, down, rollover, and shake, and for gradulation he
learned how to jump through a hoop. Next we're going to go through the basic class and then we want to get him certified
as a Canine Good Citizen. Everytime we come home from work he eargerly greets us with little whines and kisses. He's a
beautiful healthy boy who loves car rides and enjoys playing with my mom's 60 lb aussie shephard mix. Here are a few pictures
of him. Thanks for everything Krista, Chris and Mika
