Marie's
first
meeting
with her
puppy
Ruby
"The vet visit went great,
just as healthy as you said
he is.  He is
either running around
playing or zonked out
sleeping.  There doesn't
seem
to be an in between for him.  
He is perfect for the boys.  
AJ (my
youngest) just loves him.  
Pat (my oldest ) is really
good at taking Panzer
out to use the bathroom.
Your new slide show is
great.  I will have to get a
family picture for
you to put on there."

Hi Georgia!! I've been
meaning to send you a few
pics of Lola for awhile
now, and I finally
uploaded them to send to
you and Kristine.  First
off I just want to say
thank you soooo much for
helping me find her!! She
is absolutely amazing!!
She has brought so much
joy into mine and my
family's life!  She just
recently went to the vet
for her 3rd set of shots,
and the vet just can't
believe how adorable she
is!! Her tail is double
curled (like Jake's) and
the vet said who ever put
the female and stud dog
together were so smart,
because she is one of the
best looking Pugs she has
ever seen!!  She just
turned 3 months Tuesday
and is cuter then ever!!
Hope you enjoy the pics!!
Thanks again!!

Take Care,
Leanne

I AM YOUR PUPPY



I am your Puppy, and I will love you until the end of the Earth, but please know a
few things about me.

I am a Puppy, this means that my intelligence and capacity for learning are the
same as an 8-month-old child. I am a Puppy; I will chew EVERYTHING I can get
my teeth on. This is how I explore and learn about the world. Even HUMAN
children put things in their mouths. It's up to you to guide me to what is mine to
chew and what is not.

I am a Puppy; I cannot hold my bladder for longer than 1 - 2 hours. I cannot "feel"
that I need to poop until it is actually beginning to come out. I cannot vocalize nor
tell you that I need to go, and I cannot have "bladder and bowel control" until 6 -
9 months. Do not punish me if you have not let me out for 3 hours and I tinkle. It
is your fault. As a Puppy, it is wise to remember that I NEED to go potty after:
Eating, Sleeping, playing, Drinking and around every 2 - 3 hours in addition. If you
want me to sleep through the night, then do not give me water after 7 or 8 p.m. A
crate will help me learn to housebreak easier, and will avoid you being mad at me.

I am a Puppy, accidents WILL happen, please be patient with me! In time I will
learn.

I am a Puppy, I like to play. I will run around, and chase imaginary monsters, and
chase your feet and your toes and 'attack' you, and chase fuzz-balls, other pets,
and small kids. It is play; it's what I do. Do not be mad at me or expect me to be
sedate, mellow and sleep all day.  If my high energy level is too much for you,
maybe you could consider an older rescue from a shelter or Rescue group. My play
is beneficial, use your wisdom to guide me in my play with appropriate toys, and
activities like chasing a rolling ball, or gentle tug games, or plenty of chew toys
for me. If I nip you too hard, talk to me in "dog talk", by giving a loud YELP, I will
usually get the message, as this is how dogs communicate with one another. If I
get too rough, simply ignore me for a few moments, or put me in my crate with an
appropriate chew toy.

I am a Puppy; hopefully you would not yell, hit, strike, kick or beat a 6-month-old
human infant, so please do not do the same to me. I am delicate, and also very
impressionable. If you treat me harshly now, I will grow up learning to fear being
hit, spanked, kicked or beat.  Instead, please guide me with encouragement and
wisdom. For instance, if I am chewing something wrong, say, "No chew!" and hand
me a toy I CAN chew. Better yet, pick up ANYTHING that you do not want me to
get into. I can't tell the difference between your old sock and your new sock, or
an old sneaker and your $200 Nikes.

I am a Puppy, and I am a creature with feelings and drives much like your own,
but yet also very different. Although I am NOT a human in a dog suit, neither am
I an unfeeling robot who can instantly obey your every whim.  I truly DO want to
please you, and be a part of your family, and your life. You got me (I hope)
because you want a loving partner and companion, so do not relegate me to the
backyard when I get bigger, do not judge me harshly but instead mold me with
gentleness and guidelines and training into the kind of family member you want
me to be.

I am a Puppy and I am not perfect, and I know you are not perfect either. I love
you anyway. So please, learn all you can about training, and puppy behaviors and
caring for me from your veterinarian, books on dog care and even researching on
the computer! Learn about my particular breed and it's "characteristics", it will
give you understanding and insight into WHY I do all the things I do. Please teach
me with love, patience, the right way to behave and socialize me with training in a
puppy class or obedience class, we will BOTH have a lot of fun together.

I am a Puppy and I want more than anything to love you, to be with you, and to
please you. Won't you please take time to understand how I work?  We are the
same you and I, in that we both feel hunger, pain, thirst, discomfort, fear, but
yet we are also very different and must work to understand one anther's
language, body signals, wants and needs. Some day I will be a handsome dog,
hopefully one you can be proud of and one that you will love as much as I love you.

Love,

Your Puppy
hey Georgia,

Hows it going? I tell you
what mitzi is just the most
precious thing and she is
doing so well potty
training. she has only
had 2 accidents in the
house
and goes almost as
soon as we take her out.
Except
when it is raining, she
doesn't like that, I can't
blame her neither do I.
She doesn't really seem
to get
into much trouble either.
Doesn't chew anything
up or
anything like that. Lisa
really loves her. well write
back if you want to know
anything more. Thanks
again
georgia.

Georgia-


I have been meaning to send you pictures of a Gus
for a while now, I am sorry it took so long! Gus is
just wonderful. He has such a personality! He brings
so much happiness to me and Jarod. We can't even
remember what life was like before we had "the
Gus." He is of course crazy and chews everything in
sight, but he looks so adorable while doing it that is
impossible to get mad at him. :)


Attached are some pictures from the last few
months. I hope you enjoy them!


Thank you so much for giving us the best dog we
could ever wish for!


All the best,
Carrie


p.s. I saw that Sammie's is pregnant is again. Are all
the pups taken? Jarod and I have been thinking of
giving Gus a little brother or sister. :)
