Hi Dawn,

 It’s been ages since I’ve checked in – attached are pics of Isabel.  ( She’s full grown at around 10 pounds and is so smart and just full of personality! ) We adore her.

I am wondering what puppies you will have available around May 5.  We are getting married that weekend, and my soon to be mother-in-law is possibly interested in getting puppy when she’s in NC.  She just loves Izzy!  Please let me know if you will have any available – preferably malitipoos, and especially any related to Izzy.

 Thanks so much!  Hope all is well.

 Warm regards, Katie Norman

Dawn,

I thought I would show you the “intro email” that I sent out to some friends. Chloe is doing very well. (that is the name that Santa picked out for her).  She has taken everything all in stride.  No signs of an upset tummy, eating and drinking well, etc.  The kids love her; as well as Jerry and I.  I do wish that I could have talked Jerry into getting one of her siblings for her to have for company, but he just wouldn’t go for it.  He might would have if we didn’t already have the Bullmastiff.  Today is Chloe’s first day at home by herself, so we will see how that goes.  One other funny thing; the cocktiel now makes whimpering/whining noises that sound JUST LIKE CHLOE.  Too funny !!!!!

I will keep you up to date on how she is doing and send pics……

Thanks again, Lorie

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!

Hi Everyone,

My name is Chloe.  I came to live with the Chavers on Christmas Eve.  I am seven weeks old (as of this past Monday (12/31)) and I weigh a whopping 1 lb. 10 oz.  Don’t let my size fool you though, I am a pistol !!  Mommy says that I am so rotten that I stink !!

Hey Dawn-

Just thought I would send you a few updated pictures of “JL1” –Bear.  He looks so much like the teddy bear that we had bought him, the name just stuck.  You nailed it with the spunky description!  We love it!  He is a real lovey too.  We have just about conquered the house training thing with positive reinforcement.  We bought these mini reward treats at the pet store, cut them in half, and he gets one and praise every time he pees or poops outside. Also, limiting his space most of the time to the family room and the kitchen helps too.  Once he is 99% trustworthy he can have run of the whole house.  He has on average of about 2 accidents a day which isn’t bad for 13 weeks old.  The longest we have left him is 3 ½ hours.  He does great in the play pen.  He slept the first two nights in the play pen, waking every 1 ½ hours.  The third night we put him in the bed with us, and he slept from 11pm-7am.(OMG!)  I’ll give you one guess where he is every night.  Our lab has warmed up to him.  She was very scared of hurting him at first, she would stand like a board, looking at us like “what have ya’ll done.”  The cat and Bear play many times every day until the cat gets to tough and we have to break them up.  Eveready battery……Bear.  A couple of the pictures are from his first trip to Topsail Beach last week.  He loved it!  He got a vaccine today.. and he will get 1+rabies in three weeks then we are done for a while.  He weighed 3lbs. today.  He has one ear that stands up straight and one ear that tries to flop.  I just love his color.  As soon as he gets all of his vaccines we will take a puppy class and get groomed for the first time. I would love to see a picture of his mom some time.

Thanks-

Melanie Philips

I took the one of him asleep on the ottoman, I looooove that picture.  As you can tell from the pictures, he is just living the hard life.

Thanks-

Melanie

Hey Dawn-

Bear is just fine!  He got his 16wk shots last week, graduated from puppy preschool, and stayed home overnight by himself for the first time.    He weighed 4.2 lbs last Wednesday/17wks old.  I will send some photos soon. He had his first groom about 3 weeks ago, and the groomer said that if she could draw a picture of a yorkipoo, he is what she would imagine.  He definitely has the yorkie ears.  His coat seems to becoming a little more silky.  Very low maintenance.  He is a sweetie.  His favorite thing to do is dig for moles in the back yard and play with the cat.  He and the cat play all the time.   So far I am extremely pleased with my puppy.  He has a great disposition and seems to be thriving.

This is Bear now, 18wks old 4.2lbs.  What a cutie!  Dixie is his big sister, she will be 11 in November.
