Hello Katrina!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas Day!

You have been seeing on Facebook how Tess is getting on I have to say when we saw you'd had one of Xambi's pups returned earlier in the year we were sorely tempted to get in touch! The litter looked gorgeous!!

We are loving our Tess and seeing how she is maturing (well, a bit anyway!!) she really is so beautiful everyone we meet admires her looks and behaviour.

Anyway Katrina, I just thought I'd drop you a line during the Boxing Day lull, I will keep looking on your website from time to time and I do enjoy all your facebook updates! It would be really lovely to bring Tess over for a visit sometime soon maybe when the weather gets drier!!

I hope you have a Happy & Healthy New Year, Take Care,

Love from Gail xx

Dear Katrina,

I have been hoping so much to find the time to come over and see you, bringing the beautiful Dora with me. Life took a turn at Christmas, with us being offered a house on the family farm in Lincolnshire. After much deliberation, we decided
to accept, and leave at the beginning of July so my chances of getting over to you between now and then are probably slim.
I'm so sorry as I'd so love you to see Dora. She is developing into one of those 'one in a million' dogs. She's funny and clever, sometime a bit giddy, and I trust her with anything.
All the children adore her, and nearly everybody who comes to visit falls quickly for her charms.
Thank you so much.

I do hope you're well. No doubt surrounded by puppies and rushed off your feet. I hope you're having a good time with all your various canine companions and finding that, despite these troublesome times, you still have plenty of buyers. I'm sure you do as your reputation is impeccable, and it seems to me that once a GSD owner it's hard to give them up.

Anyway, do let me know how you're doing. I think of you often.

With best wishes as ever,

Isabel Burford

Hi Katrina,

Hope all is well with you, we are doing well here. Darcey is fantastic a real pleasure, she has been to a couple of her puppy classes and we are due to go again tonight. The first week we were there she was so good (especially considering she was the youngest out of all the puppies) that they were taking pictures of her for their website, I will let you know when they appear on it. We are using the clicker and it seems to work for her, she can sit, lie, recall and heel and she is now learning 'stay' which is proving to be a bit more challenging but we will get there. As she is now going out for little walks, she is socialising with other dogs and seems of a placid nature not too excitable, She is getting a lot taller and is about half the size of our other dog, they really do like each other it seems that Darcey has given Sassy a new lease of life, although sometimes our she rolls her eyes at the sight of Darcey first thing in the morning:-).

We will email again soon and send some pictures as well.

Speak soon

Hi Katrina,

Hope you are keeping well. We thought we would email you a couple of pictures of Darcey that were taken in the last week or so. Darcey is doing really well and is now walking on the lead brilliantly and comes back when we tell her, she is also a very sociable dog who enjoys a play but is not too boisterous. We are looking forward to our first Christmas altogether. We hope you have a lovely Christmas and hope to see you sometime in 2011 for the puppy party.

Kind regards

Elaine and Ian x

Hi Katrina

Sorry its been awhile since we have given you an update and any pictures of Darcey. She is such a loving and fun young dog full of energy yet also appreciates the comforts of the sofa ! We have just come back from a week in Exmoor with both our dogs and Darcey loved the moors,rivers and beaches, it was a real joy to see her on her 1st holiday. She has been spayed and has recovered fully from the operation. I have enclosed a picture of her and will send a few more on separate emails as I seem to have problems attaching more than one ( new pc !).

We think she looks a lot like Lexi but with slightly redder markings. Everywhere we go she attracts attention and she has started looking at her reflection in mirrors etc. ( we joke that she's vain !). I hope you and all the dogs are doing well and will try to keep you more updated with Darcey news.

Regards

Ian and Elaine

Hi Katrina
As it is Darcey's 3rd Birthday today I thought I would give you an up date on her and send you a picture of her relaxing in the garden. She has grown into a wonderful dog who is a fantastic companion and provides us with lots of love ,loyalty and long walks !
She has really enjoyed our move to the Forest of Dean as everyday is a different adventure with so many places to explore. She has charmed our new neighbours with her friendly ways ( even if it means they have to play ball with her for ages !). She enjoys being chased by our eldest dog Sassy , but with 9 years between them its not exactly hard for Darcey to out run her!
I hope all is well with you and the dogs, we often think of Lexi and believe that Darcey takes after her not only in looks but intelligence too !
Take Care

It was lovely to see you on Sunday, as it always is, and your dogs are a credit to you, they are lovely. Thankyou for letting us have Abbie (and for all your help and advice thereafter!), she's turning out to be a beautiful GSD and we're proud to have her in our family. I still think you can't beat German Shepherds, they are the top breed, they ooze intelligence, strength with good looks. I have got my German Shepherd that I wanted for years and feel very lucky, so thanks to you!
Glad the paddling pool has survived so far, did you manage to mow the lawn after we'd gone? and look at the labrador's foot?, didn't realise how late the time was, so hope you got done everything you planned to. The sweets went down very well on the way home and both Beth and Hayden say thanks.
Hope to see you soon.
Good luck with Kiera and her pups, hope all goes well this time, any socializing needed just shout!!
Take care
Love Sarah xxx

Hi Katrina

Just a quick email to say that Harley passed his Bronze Good Citizens Award tonight!! Very proud of him even with the distraction of 3 unknown stooge dogs (2 Gsd's and a Collie), he still managed to behave himself! Apparently he is one of the nicest Gsd's that they have ever had at the training club and his superb temperament was commented on. They took a lovely photo of him licking the examiners face at the end!! Hope to get a copy of it so I can forward it on to you. Aiming for Silver in the Summer!

Hope all's going well with you?

Take care

Hi Katrina,

Hope all is well with you?
Dexter has grown into a wonderful dog, loved by everyone - including other dogs.

We recently went to Portland Bill with Dexter and our Black Labrador - Robbie (he was originally training to be a drugs dog at the prison but failed to make the grade!) - and we bumped into another of your dogs - Murphy.

We took some pictures as Dexy and Murphy just loved each other. It was so lovely to see them running around together.

I have attached some pictures of them both together and one more of Dexy so that you can see what a lovely dog he has turned out to be.

Kind Regards
Cathy

Hi Katrina
Just a quickie to let you know that all is well with us and Sabah. Frightening to believe that she is 15 months old already.
She is very well, looking very good and can run for England- usually in the opposite direction to the one you want to go!

Today we went for a social walk with a local dog training group and she was with 4 GSD's, a Sharpai, 2 KC Spaniels, 2 Labs and something I am not quite sure about- absolute mayhem and great fun. Of them all, she was probably the most relaxed and laid back, which considering she was the new girl in the pack, was rather impressive.

I hope that all is well with you and your animals, and that maybe we will get to see you one day. I am wanting Michael to take some photos, of Sabah and when he does I will send some off to you for your web site.

Take care

Dear Katrina,

Leo sends his love he is a real hunk. I think we should have called him Chunky he really is a big boy and has a very lovable nature. He adores Alan and wraps himself around him. He really is a very friendly dog with no aggression whatsoever.We will send you a picture shortly so you can see how handsome he is!!

with love Ann & Alan xx
