LUNA (aka Holly)   
This is Ginger's puppy from Nov. 2016 litter




Hi Gloria!

 Just wanted to send you a little update on Holly (now Luna) after her first month home with us!  She's doing great adapting to her new home in Pittsburgh!  She catches the attention of everyone on the street that sees her. It's so hard to take a walk anywhere without everyone stopping us to pet and play with her!  But it's great  because she LOVES all the attention she can get!  I can't believe how fast she's growing!! We just had a vet appointment on Thursday and she was 13lbs.  She's such a smart little puppy, she learned most of her basic commands within her first week home.  She loves other dogs too, especially her best friend Basil who lives next door.  She gets to go over and play with him on the days when Tyler and I both work.  She went for her first hike this past weekend with us in Deep Creek, MD and she loved it!  We're so excited for summer camping and hiking trips now that we know how much she loves being out in the woods!  She's the sweetest, funniest, little ball of fluff ever and we couldn't imagine having a better dog!  She makes us laugh every day and has made our lives so much better! I included a few pictures for you from the past month, there's one of her sleeping on the first day we got her, her first bath, learning to sit, and one from her first hike this past weekend.  We'll continue to keep you updated as she grows up!

Brody (aka Jaguar) 
2 months old Update!


Just wanted to drop you a little note and tell you Brody aka Jaguar has adjusted well to life with us. He's happy and playful. Loves attention and playing with all his toys. Doing great with house training and the crate was a success after the second night! He's come out of his quiet shell and can be rambunctious and silly but is still a sweet boy. He loves his many car rides back in forth to the girls sports practice and house swaps. And he's still trying to make friends with the cats, LOL. But we are all so happy to have that furry face to wake up to every morning. So grateful to have found you!

Sincerely

Kelly

Chewy (aka Jill) 
4 month old Update!




Hey Gloria,

Thought I would give you a little update on Chewy aka Jill. She has already started some puppy training and is kicking butt. She can come, sit, down, shake, high five and roll over. We are still working on stay, but she gets a little excited and runs after us when we practice. She handled the 7.5 hour car ride home well and transitioned into her new home great. She loves her big sister Jesse. Jesse is still getting used to how playful she is non-stop, but they are getting close. 

Thanks again for everything. We will give you more updates in the future.

Ashley and Katherine

Good Evening Gloria!

It's been a while since we've sent you an update on Ziggy and Finnigan! This Halloween the boys decided to dress like their mother and got a "lab" haircut. Here's what they look like below! Both are doing very well. Finnigan just turned 3 this past September and Ziggy will be 5 this upcoming February! Hope all is well with you and your family.

From,

Reese update!




Hi Gloria! Just thought you would enjoy some updated photos of Reese since he came home with us.  He got into a routine after about a month or so and is fully trained, he's a very smart little pup. He has such a fun, loving and energetic personality that everyone he visits seems to fall in love with. Some of his favorite activities are going to the drive in theater, hanging out with his dog friends at the park, going for runs with me every morning, going to the lake and hanging out in the firehouse that we volunteer with. He truly is one of a kind and I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful addition to our family! He puts a smile on everyone's face that he meets. Thank you!

Coco update!


Coco's birthday is in March of 2009 and we picked her up the first weekend in May 2009.She has truly been an amazing dog with a lot of personality!!  She is almost 7 and she really does act like a puppy sometimes. CoCo has been the biggest blessing to my family and she has one of the best personalities and I want to get another puppy to keep her active.  She still acts like a puppy sometimes at almost 7 years old and that is in part due to her disposition.  

Thanks again,

Lauri

Lucy (now Sally)




Hi Gloria 
Lucy-Sally is home! She's adapting well. 
We named her Sally since our other dog is Harry and my husband has always wanted a girl dog so we can have "when Harry met Sally" like the movie!
She is a love bug. 
Thanks and happy new year! 
-Danelle

Adi 
Lincroft, New Jersey

 Robert and Dawn are happy very pleased to say that Adi has been a wonderful addition to their family. Robert wasn't sure he wanted a dog, but now she sleeps with them. She is great with the kids! She has an excellent disposition and is even patient when the kids get rough. She does shed and seems to have more of the Lab hair. She does better after grooming and a trim. Her outer coat of hair was more bristly but after the hair cut the hair underneath is very soft. She does love to bark. She weighs 50 lbs.

Bella
in Waterford, Pennsylvania

 2012 UPDATE: Here are some updated pictures of Alexia now named Bella at one year old. Peggy says that she is energetic and needs lots of exercise and training, but she's smart and knows hand signals. She is also good with the grandchildren and can sense when someone isn't feeling well. She loves to socialize with other dogs. Her hair grew long and course so Denny & Peggy gave her a sophisticated - looking schnauzer hair cut.  She also surprised us and grew a reddish brown "beard" around her snout.  I think she's adorable! She weighs 52 lbs at one year.



****************************
Annie
Elysburg, Pennsylvania
 
2012 Update: Annie is one year old now and here is an updated pic.  Isn't she a beauty!! Susan says that she is doing well and is well loved and well behaved. She likes her morning run. She has a very good temperament.  Her coat of hair is soft and beautiful. She is not completely non shedding. Susan brushes her hair and keeps her looking great.  Susan said that they are very happy with her. 

 

****************************
Colt 
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania


Update 2012Colt is doing very well.  He weights around 60-65lbs and his coat is white with shades of gold.  He head and neck are have curly hair, like a poodle, but the rest of his body has straight hair, like a lab.  I couldn't imagine him having a better personality and he is incredibly smart and well behaved.  He has a lot of energy but if you let him run around for 30-60 minutes a day that seems to tire him out. 
He LOVES the water!Jason

Max
Hillburn, New York






Max -February 3rd 2013 UPDATE:
 Hi gloria,
       Here are some pics of Max and Rambo. He is just an amazing boy, the two of them are getting great now. Max is now 61lbs. The only thing he does that is too excessive is shed (alot), but we don't care, he is still a great bundle of joy, always happy. His tail never stops wagging and he just wants to be hugged and loved, which he is.
                Take care, Steve and Ellie





 Max -September 2013 Update:
 Hi Gloria,
           Here is a cool pic of max. He loves to sit like this on the couch. He is still the coolest boy. Hope all is well.
        Keep in touch, Steve and Ellie

Ziggy
Burlington Vermont


June update:
Good Morning Croutch Family!

As promised we would give you guys updates on our lil' (not so much) Ziggy! Since his 4 month birthday was just last week we figured it would be a good time to show you the growing boy!

Ziggy so far has been VERY easy to train! He learned some new tricks these past few weeks and is very good at "shake" and "leave it." Two weeks ago we re-introduced him to the lake, when he was younger he wasn't so fond of it but then again it WAS a bit chilly to begin with. However, now he is learning to swim  we're thinking he's going to be a water pooch! He goes on daily trips to the local dog park and we must say he's NOT shy, he has a group of friends he plays with all the time and its just the cutest thing! But as active as he is he's also quite the snuggle bug -which is what I like personally, gives "momma" a break from running around. At the end of the month we will be taking a mini vacation to Maine where he will be introduced to the ocean - we'll see how that goes!

As of his last vet visit he was weighed at 29 lbs so he's now well over 30!
Ruslan & Emily & Ziggy
 
 
APRIL 5TH 2013 UPDATE
He is amazing! Super obedient, LOVES fetch and loves everybody he encounters. We are hoping in the near future he will be a "big brother" to another little guy, but we love him so much and couldn't expect to have a better dog.

MARCH 2013 TESTIMONIALS



BOOMER IN CONNECTICUT 


Hi Gloria!
We love him....he is such a sweetie pie...such a cuddle bug!   He did fantastic in the car.....slept in the front seat and was great.  They got to CT around 11...
We put the crate in my daughter's room and the minute he whimpered she put him in her bed and he never moved....such a good boy!  We'll work on the crate tonight!.....maybe..haha!
He played all day with the kids while I worked in my garden.....he was so exhausted and took a long nap.   I'll send some pictures....we've taken a bunch!
We are soooo in love with this little guy!  
Thanks so so much!
....kerry

BOOMER 3 MONTH UPDATE: 
 







  Hey Gloria
I just wanted to give you a little update on Boomer.... He's doing great and is so much fun! Here's a picture of him going shopping for the first time.  Everyone in Home Goods loved him!  He is so smart and is pretty much housebroken!  He sleeps with my daughter every night and has never had an accident during the night.... He does not like the crate which he has to go in when we leave the house.  He is getting used to being around other dogs and I bring him to my son's lacrosse games and he has been playing with any dog that will play with him...so cute!!


He is a scream! We just love watching his antics! 
My son brought him in the pool and he didn't know what to do ......he was splashing like he was swimming, while Ryan was holding him! I remember it took Chip a while to get used to the water and when he did he was always jumping in just to cool off......I'm sure Boomer will do that too.
 He is totally spoiled......he always goes in the car whenever I do errands but insists on laying across my lap which has to end soon because he is getting so big. 
Boomer loves his toys and plays constantly with ALL of them so they are all over the house...along with socks, towels, sandals........he is such a thief!
After losing both my great dane Jack, and then my labradoodle Chip just 6 weeks ago, he is really helping all of us laugh again! 
I'll keep sending pictures!
Thanks again for our special guy!
xo......Kerry



BOOMER 6 Month update: 
Hi Gloria
Boomer is getting big and runs the house!!  He has a silly personality and has to be the center of attention!  He hides bones and toys all over the house...can't believe he's six months old already!!

GUNNER WITH HIS NEW MOM - MARIE

UPDATE ON GUNNER MAY 2014

 Hi Gloria:

     Gunner's ride home went well. He is adjusting good, the grandchildren love him. Cooper loves him too and is very gentle with him. They were playing very nicely this morning chasing each other. I just have to remind Cooper to be careful and there have been only a few yips from Gunner. When that happens, Cooper immediately backs off. So it looks like they will be good buddies. I am sending a picture of them together, hope it gets there. I added a couple other pictures too. 

Thanks, Marie



OCTOBER 2014 UPDATE:

Hi Gloria



Just a short video of Gunner bringing his ball back. I think he would play ball all day. He is so cute with chocolate coming out in his beard and some white hairs across his back and legs. He is a very good puppy very gentle and sweet. He does have a bad habit of eating socks which really scares me but they have always come out one end or the other. Hopefully he gets over it soon. I think I am pretty careful but he still finds one once in awhile.

Bye for now

Chloe 
Muncy Pennsylannia





  Chloe is doing wonderful! She didn't seem to mind the ride home... and licked a few pieces of ice on the way... She loves to sleep with us...and on the couch with me...she actually went into her kennel from choice  for a couple minutes today...but has not spent long in it at all... she is going potty outside for me now...after 2 mishaps in the kennel ( she was barely in it tho). She is such a cuddle-love and a lap dog and all that...she is doing well learning to walk on the leash...coming when I say "Chloe come", and she is just as you said her personality was! I love her so much already.  She loves her toys and seems to redirect well if told to stop chewing on something she should not. She prob would have cried the first night if i had left her in the kennel...but I just couldn't do it. She even let me sleep in this morning with her!  She is such a joy! We put a doggie bed on the bedroom floor and she spends some time on that too.She barks only when she wants to tell us something lol, and she is so calm about things.. TTYL!

CHLOE 3 month update
 





 CHLOE 6 month update

 Hi Gloria,
  Thought I'd share with you that Chloe got spayed (spelling?) this morning.  She is still loopy from the anesthesia and sleeping.  It was hard to leave her there this morning. Yep, I cried. Anyway, she weighed in at 46.7 pounds, and not quite 6 months of age yet!  I wonder how the rest of the pups are weighing in!TTYL
Debby



Chloe - 1 year update:
HI Gloria,
   Just thought I'd say Hi.  Chloe is much loved and brings us so much joy. She was a year in March.  She weighed in at the vets several weeks ago at 64.2 pounds ( just about what you estimated). I was so happy to see you put a pic of Chloe's Daddy up!  (And I saw Chloe's pic on the top of your web site!I can see she looks a lot like him and has his body shape. She goes for grooming about every 5 weeks...I love when her hair is short and soft...with a nice trim job of her face.  Everyone in awhile I check your web site...I love seeing pics of Chloe's siblings. I keep hoping I will run into her siblings here in our area.  I see another went home to Muncy PA. And one to South Wmpt.! She has sooo much character!  She will always be a lap dog...and loves to lay on me. She's a very cuddly, touchy-feeling girl. The kennel is no longer needed.  She sleeps with us every night.
Talk to you later!
Debby Dowdy

Molly
Jacksonville, North Carolina



 June 2013 update:
 Hi Gloria,

Candy is now Molly and she sleeps through the night like a log.  We have a ways to go with her potty training.  She is pretty good most of the time, but we are not completely house trained.  But, she can swim.  We took her to the ocean and took her to the inlet area where we live and she loved the sand and took to the water like a duck.  She was so much fun to watch and run with.  Next trip to the beach I'll take pictures and send them to you all. 

Molly was asleep most of the way back home.  She was a great little traveler.

She has gained 5 pounds and her legs keep getting longer and longer.  HA!!!!

Thank you for such a wonderful puppy she has and will bring great joy to our family.

Thank you,
Barbra and Paul


October 2013 Update: 

Hi Gloria,

Now that I am back to school I find I have very little free time; but Molly is the love of our lives; she and Zoe our cat have become good playmates for one another.  They both love sleeping at night on the same bed but want space between them.  

Molly had her last shot for a while and weighed 38 pounds two weeks ago. The Vet feels she will be about 60 pounds by the time she is a year old.    She has the longest legs, true Poodle legs. Molly was basically house trained in 2 weeks. 

She loves to play ball and has about 15 stuffed animals that she plays with.  For a while she was trying to chew just about anything she could get her teeth into.  Now that most of her baby teeth are out she is much better about chewing chair legs.  I've been training her to focus on looking at me and focusing on one thing at a time.  She is truly a smart dog and she responds to commands and follows instructions well, such as coming to you, sitting and giving you her paw, and is trying to sit up on her back legs.  We didn’t even try to teach her this trick she just has been trying to do it on her own.  

I will try to send you’ll some pictures soon.  Molly by the way looks as if she may have gray and some brown tones in her coat.

Thank you for such a loving dog.
Barbara & Paul

Minion 
Holidaysburg Pennsylvania

 


 May update:

Puppy is doing well. We re-named him, Minion. He hasn't really shed much. He adjusted very quickly and didn't cry at all. He has already gotten bigger though and has figured out how to get up on the couch. The cat hasn't adjusted to him yet and she stays upstairs but she's made a few trips downstairs to see him so it's only a matter of time until she is comfortable. All of the neighborhood kids love him and they each take turns taking him outside. He hasn't had very many accidents so we are happy about that. We will be sure and send pictures!

Carli 
Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania




Hi Gloria,
I wanted to give you an update on Carli.  She did a great job in the car yesterday - very calm.  When we got home, she didn't like her crate very much, but she LOVES her new doggie bed.  She slept almost all night on it, only getting up twice to go outside!!  She has had only one accident in the house...she is doing great with house training.  What a sweet and playful puppy.  Thanks so much! Patti

October 2013 Update:

Hi Gloria!  Good to hear from you!  Carli is doing well.  She has such a great temperament and loves children and other dogs.  The kids keep her busy. She's a jumper so we're working on that.   She is still playful, but also likes to just chill out.  The only thing that really gets her going is our cats!  She thinks they are toys!  Training was rough in the beginning, but then I learned the trick of hanging a bell on our door.  Once I put the bell on and showed her how to use it, she was fully house trained within a few days. I was a little worried she might chew furniture, etc. because I've heard that about labs, but she has never done anything like that.  She was about 45 pounds the last time we weighed her (maybe a week and a half ago) so I think she's right on track.  Her coat has other colors in it now...you can see some brown on her beard and some white on her back...it's really cute.    I'll try to get a good picture with my phone and send it to you.  Hope all is well with you and your family.

Cooper
Lewisburg Pa

 

Hi Gloria,
He is doing great!  We actually named him Cooper. He cried the first few nights. Now he goes in the crate about 11:30 or 12:00 and wakes me up about 5:00. He doesn't cry. 
The house training is still in progress. He still needs to learn to tell me when he needs to go out. He's getting the hang of it most of the time.
He seems to be very smart. He learned his name really fast and is sitting and fetching. 
The kids are really enjoying him. 
Thanks for checking in. 
Leanne


October 2013 Update

Hi Gloria,
Cooper is doing great!  He is a handful. We started puppy training classes last week - it's going well so far.
He is about 45 lb

Casi 
Watsontown, Pennsylvania

 

 She is a dream! She slept through the night since the third night and even the first couple nights, she only whined for 10 minutes or less. She is soo laid back and sooo smart. She is starting to go to the door to pee but hasn't mastered it yet. She is a huge cuddler. My kids and I, and everyone else are all so in love with this puppy. She has been to the vet and was 11.6 pounds this past Friday. Good health! She is so easy in the car. Completely low maintenance. Her name is still  "Casi" but spelled with a "s" ...my daughter picked the spelling, but kept the same name.  I think I was suppose to see that sign that day and she is suppose to be part of our family. Thank you so much! I will take a photo soon and send it to you. She seems to be getting a few curls but not too many. She is a doll! 


June 2013
Casi -10 1/2 weeks Update!



 Casi - October 2013 Update
Casi is the Sweetest, most hilarious dog ever! She is about 32 lbs. She was just spayed 2 weeks ago.  She has really super long legs and a tiny body. Curls all over her nose and a few on head, but otherwise lab characteristics.. Her chin has turned lighter and slightly tan. We just love her. She has the BEST temperment. She sits and tolerated a bath,  learned to sit, stay, lay down, and come...she still tries to hog all of the attention from our other elder dog but they don't fight too much anymore. He grumbles, and she antagonizes him till he just gives up....it is kind of funny. She now has graduated from sleeping in a kennel to sleeping by the bed at night. She barked in the morning sooo much that we finally broke and gave up the kennel. She doesn't chew up anything except dryer sheets but she is known to take off with the yarn or a sock from time to time. No damage though. She is really a great dog and I would have to say she is the BEST natured dog I have ever had. Here is a pic but it doesn't capture her personality at all. I will try to sen a better one later. (we kept telling her to sit in this one and I think she thought she was in trouble)lol

Hi Gloria,
I just wanted to thank you for Maggie. She is great. She slept all night last night.  She follows us everywhere, comes when she is called, and has been going to the door to go out (no accidents yet!).  We took her to see my parents and she was a hit at their personal care facility.
I gave her a bath and trimmed her nails when we got home today. She is now fluffier than she was before.
Thanks again for everything.

on October 6, 2014
in Sunbury Pa
CONGRATULATIONS MCKENZIE!

October 13th,2014 update

Hi Gloria!
   Thank you so much for getting back to me! Stella is loving her new home. She is doing awesome at going to the bathroom outside. I can't believe how quickly she learned to do so. She sleeps almost all night without having accidents in the house. She is really a great dog. I have to say though, she gives me a run for my money when it comes to playing or running around the yard. She has non stop energy. Our other two dogs aren't all the way adjusted to her yet but our lab has taken her under her wing and let's her cuddle up and sleep with her. Stella loves car rides and playing ball in the yard. She hasn't exactly learned how to bring the ball back yet. I thought you would enjoy a little end of her first week home update.



Christmas 2014 update!
Hi Gloria,
     Stella is doing so great! She is a very big girl. She weighed in at 30 pounds and that was just a few days ago. She experienced her first time in the snow and absolutely loves it! She likes to play with snowballs and run and slide. She sleeps all night without accidents, she "potty trained" very quickly. She is a genuinely great dog! Thank you so much and Merry Christmas!
*ps. She looks super cute in this santa dress but absolutely hates it haha! McKenzie
