Letters from New Puppy Parents

Leslie V 6/27/05

It was so great to hear from you this morning. As soon as I finished talking to you, I called my husband, L. J. to let him know. We feel like someone has given us Christmas all over again. Thank you so much for your generosity; that's a rare virtue these days. I can hardly wait til Saturday. I'll call you Friday afternoon or early evening to confirm that I'm still coming and that you haven't had any change of plans.

Thanks again, Dian. We were heartsick when we lost our pup, but you've made our day. You're a real sweetheart of a lady!!

Hi Dian, I just wanted to take a minute to tell you what a little joy Callie is to us! She quickly became queen of the household with all 4 kids and 2 adults waiting on her. We really love her.
Our friends, John and Mary Lou C. loved her too but since we wouldn't part with her brought Toby to their home from yours too!
Please keep me on your mailing list. I love your puppies.
Thanks again for such a sweet loving well cared for pup.

I love your website and have read everything....... I think it is just so GREAT that you post all the information you do on your website for free!!! There are many others that are charging for the same information. I bet you are a wonderful lady!

From Betsy & Chloe

Hello!

I just became a Shih tzu mom, and was really not sure what to do for my little Chloe. I did a search on the net and found your site! Thank God! I got so much info from it ! I just wanted to say Thank You so much for having such a wonderful and very useful site! Now I know what to do for my baby.

Even though I didn't get my baby from you I'd like to share my photos with you of her and her big sister. And Thanks again for having your site.

I wanted to thank you so much for your wonderful web site. Your site saved our new puppies life. We purchased her from what we thought was a reputable pet store. We tried to ask all of the right questions. But the following day the puppy was not eating or drinking and started vomiting. We took her to the Vet. and she was hospitalized. She was treated over night for dehydration. She was discharged the following afternoon. By the time we drove home she was limp again. That is when we found your wonderful site! We ran to the store and purchased the Nutri Cal. And as you said she feeling better with in 10min. It is now to days latter and she is doing wonderful. She is now eating her wet food and drinking water.

Hello Dian,
I just wanted you to know that Tia is everything that I hoped for!! She
is so adorable and she LOVES to play all the time. She likes to be right
under my feet and I can't even go to the bathroom without her wanting to
come in. :0) I've enjoyed every moment with her! I am starting to
train her a few commands like "come" and "sit." I did have her spayed
when she reached 6 mos. and she was bed ridden for about 5 days. I
thought she would never get better, but she was back to her normal self
after the stitches were removed.

I found an excellent groomer and I like to take her about every 4-6 weeks.
We will keep her in a short coat for the summer--but I can't wait for her
long hair to come back, because I really do enjoy brushing her even though
she always wants to play instead of be still!

She currently weighs 5.2 lbs--which is exactly the size I hoped she would
be.

We got that little puppy home all safe and sound! She sure is a sweetie. I swear they don't even act scared when you first see them!

We have had lots of people over here to see her so you might be getting some more customers!

I have been meaning to send you a little note for months. First of all Godzilla is awesome!!!!

I have never seen a shih tzu, tiny toy, miniature, regular...any kind like him. He fits in THIS family perfectly. We absolutely love him!! Also, he is 5lbs. I will take a picture of him and send it to you. The kids love him, my husband loves him, but I have to tell you, he LOVES ME the most. HAHA. When I walk in the door he jumps so high, and he runs around like a looney tune..

Anyway, i just wanted to touch base with you because every day, i can't believe he's MINE.

I think I'll have Steve (my husband) take a picture of us with Z and get it to you before the holidays. Again, we love him more than you can imagine. Steven keeps saying that it is a good thing we have children, because people would think I was nuts the way I am with him....

I thought I would write to you, say hello and let you know how my little Wookie is doing. She is six months old and just lost most of her puppy teeth. Right now she weights only a bit under 4 pounds. She is very spoiled and happy. She loves to sleep with me even though my husband didn't like this idea (hehe)....

Thanks so much for your help. I've emailed many of breeders about this, and even plan to go anywhere in the US to adopt a puppy from them. (money is no object). My husband and I love to travel. It seems like because I'm new to this, nobody wants to give out any advice. It's like they're tying to keep it a deep dark secret. I really don't understand why. I'm only planning on just breeding two dogs. It's not like I'm a threat to their business. Oh well, I'm sure they didn't know everything when they first started either. I'm very young, and hopefully have plenty of time to learn how to do this properly. You're the only one who has been nice and helpful to me. It's so good to know that there is a special person like you out there in this world.
