Hello Dawn, Just wanted to give you an update on Mr. Darcy...at two years old he is amazing and I couldn't love him more! He still goes to work with me every day so his day is filled with kisses and belly rubs, rambunctious playing and long naps. He hangs out with about seven other dogs (they have turned work into their own personal dog park) and even though they range from Terrier to Newfoundland, Darcy of course rules the floor! I thought you might be interested in seeing the Target ads Darcy was in...they ran in People, Us Weekly, O The Oprah Magazine, InStyle and others. The photo shoot was great fun and he was a total pro (the boiled chicken used as bait definitely helped). They were worried he might not like getting dressed and having the clothed pinned and taped up, but he just gave them kisses and was totally cool with it. From day one he's loved strangers and kids and is a total people dog. Last year, Mr. Darcy was also featured in a Wall Street Journal article about dogs in the work place...front page of the Marketplace section. Of course, Mr. Darcy often prefers to sleep in my in-basket instead of the doggy sofa on my desk (which is surrounded with Plexiglas for safety). Here is a pdf link to the article: http://www2.petsitters.org/CharlotteReedinWSJ.pdf I will let you know if anything else comes up...but for now...everything is great and Mr. Darcy is happy and healthy and a terrific little dog. Cheers, Hillary |

Hey Dawn
Our girl is definitely pregnant ! If you would have asked me last week, I would have said no because she did not show at all. Tuesday her belly popped out and you can really tell. Will keep you updated. PS - Dawn - she really loves the new dog food :-) Ruby Dee BREEDERS NOTE: If you breed dogs it's VITAL to give them the VERY Best food...or , even if just LOVE your pet, and want to avoid vet bills and illness. Try www.healthypetnet.com/dawndalyce the "Life's Abundance foods. When we do a sire service, and recommend it..our new breeder friends are impressed ! |

I hope you are doing well, I bought Layla from you January she was a product of Cherry Pie and Ira, I have attached pictures she is the most fabulous dachshund our family has had and everyone adores her!! She is just shy of 10 pounds, great temperament loves other dogs, and has the best coat!! So needless to say we are very happy with her so thank you. I am writing to tell you that I have a friend who loves layla and has a puggle who needs a friend, I sent him your website and email but I just wanted to give you the heads up that he will probably be contacting you in the near future. His name is John Yeager, hopefully you can match him with one of Layla's fabulous siblings! Hope all is well, take care. Carson Delfer

Dawn,
Thank you so much for taking time the other day to talk to me about poor pregnant Reeses. I did take her to the vet the next morning to the tune of 181+ just for a comprehensive blood panel and office visit. She was slightly anemic, but the vet is not worried and said they would retest after she delivers. Since the vet visit I have had her here in my bedroom with me in a playard and she has been getting much better. She is running around even............hummm it would have been nice if she could have made the turn around before I ran her off to the vet. The vets office called yesterday to tell me it will cost 189.00 to do an x ray, her to stay half a day to do it and to read it. Good night I can palpitate her during and after labor to the tune of free!!! I have ordered some cal sorb to have here just in case something comes along again. I am adding some photos I took of her the other day so you can see how pregnant she is (<: She has really turned out to be a nice, gentle, loving girl.

They were all cute, but seriously ! ! ! ! ! Not one of them was
as cute as the three of ours are ! ! ! ! They were worth every
penny that I paid you for them. they are such a joy ! ! ! ! !

Dawn,
We lucky enough to find you back in 1998 ish when you were in Valley Springs Ca. Trooper was the guy that decided he wanted to join our family, wow since then we have been in Vancouver, WA and now in the Kansas City are. Yes Trooper is still with us. He is a great baby. Saw your website and thought I would drop you a line. Take Care. Dave, Peggy Feiling and family. |

Hi Dawn,
Cinder delivered 3 puppies on June 11th. 1 boy and 2 girls. One of the girls is identical to her...and has her outgoing personality. Cinder is now being showed in conformation and seems to be a "natural". Her puppies are absolutely the finest I've bred to date. I attached pictures of the girls so you can see how cute they are...the little boy didn't make it because I couldn't get him out of the birth canal fast enough. He was choc brown and white....we were very sad to lose him and tried everything to revive him. They were born at 3am and none of the vets in this area will respond at such a late hour...I totally blame myself for not moving quick enough when I realized he was breach. One of the girls was born the same way and I responded quickly with no problems delivering her. I will not be breeding her again until next summer to give her a chance to recoup. She is an awesome mommy and my favorite chi. Stacey Lynn Croy Breeders Note: Hi Stacey , Precious ! Are these from my "Cody" bloodline? Dawn , SugarNSpice Chihuahuas Stacey: Yes...your Cody is Cinder's father. My Cody is the pups father and I attached a pic of him so you can see where the coloring is coming from. They are a perfect match and produce awesome pups! I can't tell you how much I truly adore Cinder...she has the most awesome personality and is very social with everyone. I just love her to pieces!!! She still gets car sick though....LOL. |

Dear Dawn. Just a little update on our sweet girl: Asia got “fixed” this morning, she did fine, we can pick her up tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how Rico does tonight without his little sister!!!! She has been humping him like crazy; I guess she’s letting him know whose boss!!! We love them both, they are perfect together and we couldn’t ask for better puppies!! Check out Asia’s tail, you’d think she would take off like a helicopter!!! Rico does that cute look when I ask him questions, I could just eat him up when he gives me that tilted head look, I love them both so much!!! Shirley

Hi Dawn Now we are home again..... And I sent you the first picture in Denmark with brownie... In Copenhagen... Street... Every body ho sow her....said ooohhh she is lovely ...... Bella bella and so on .....I will sent you more later.... I am so tried now....love pia... |

Hi Dawn,
As you can see our babies are getting along pretty good. They started sleeping together on Saturday night in the same crate and are doing fine. They love to play hide and seek with their toys, they fight over everything and anything!!! They keep going underneath each other and it looks like their doing wheel barrel racing, not sure what that’s all about!!! Asia still won’t use the litter box but she has not had one accident, she goes outside and has been such a good girl, how can we complain. Now if she could just teach Rico to only go outside……or vise versa!!! We love her very much & hope that Rico will calm down a little and stop picking on her. Thanks for such a sweet girl, we knew once we wanted a playmate for Rico we would have to get it from you, you did such a great job with both of them. Thank you!!! Shirley & Gary, Rico & Asia

Hi Dawn! Well it has been a few months now so I thought I would give you an up date on Rolo. To start he is now 6 months old and weighs 13 pounds!! Has finally finished with the vet!! Meaning all of his vaccines are completed, had his rabies just a few weeks ago. He is a very very social puppy, loves being around people and so far most dogs. He actually has a playmate that is a Rottweiler. He goes to puppy socials every Sat. And plays free with approx. 15 other puppies within his age/weight for about 2-3 hours. Totally loves it. He has graduated from Puppy kindergarten, and did very well. Very smart and eager to learn. Will start other classes here soon.
He is a joy to work with, with a bit of a silly personality at
times which makes it that much more fun!! He is fully house trained,
so well that we can go to other houses and he will use his pads in
doors. He loves going in the car or out to walk. Where ever we go he
wants to go, and usually does. He of course is very spoiled!! But in a
good loving way. Hope you are doing well and that I did not bore you
with this note! By the way he still loves chicken jerky!! :) Will keep
you up dated if that's ok with you. Hope you enjoy the pics. Pam Breeders note : Rolo is a chocolate and tan dachshund puppy, that was nearly put down by a stupid vet who said he had "parvo" and was dead wrong, he just had a bad reaction to a food change. Gramma had another vet in their town come do a sophisticated parvo test which came out negative ( I knew it would since we use Neopar) Gramma kept him for a couple of weeks and he was in fine fiddle again quick! |

Hi dawn, Yea I was on Pay pal all my bank accounts and Credit cards were on pay pal (i'm not using them anymore). I'm soo signing up for that lifelock. I get paid on the 1st so i'm going to cash my check. So I can send some money to you. Thats so sad that people need to steal from people. GO GET A JOB! with computers or something. Thats what i'm going to do close everything and change my Credit card numbers. So when I get paid I'll send the money right over. I'm truly sorry for leaving you hanging. Thanks again for everything, Melissa Breeders Note: THIS is why we no longer take PayPal or Credit Cards. Hackers have gotten too sophisticated. |

Actually Lolita Bonita Margarita Chihuahua. When she's wiggly she's Lolita Chiquita Bananas, and when she's full she's Lolita Burrito. I sent my husband names I liked, including Lola and let him choose. He liked Lola, so do I. For my last birthday, my friend gave me a bottle of Papillon Pinot. There was a Papillon on the label with markings like Lola. They had altered her forehead blaze to the shape of a wine glass. I think Lola's blaze looks more like a tall margarita glass with a lime on one side and a straw on the other, hence the name.
She's amazing. We're bonding like crazy. Such a sweetheart!

Hi Dawn,
I thought it was about time I updated you on
Cody. Yeah!! He's had all his shots except rabies so we're out and
about a lot now. Of course Daisy loves him. He's the best toy I ever
bought her. He weighs 2 pounds 15 ounces. I don't think he'll get much
bigger. Larry is very upset. Cody is very attached to me and I have 2
dogs on my lap in the morning and evening. I guess we'll have to get
one more. He he! (Larry says no!) He's just a big softy. Do you want
to make a bet he gives in? Every morning we get in the spa (see
pictures). Take care Barbara

Hi Dawn BREEDERS NOTE : So sorry about your Jack Russel girl !!!! Yes, we actually hear of this too often, from people with all different kinds of breeds. That's why we use the Daily Oral Care liquid that you simply add to their water bowls, that gives them minty breath and keeps the plaque off their teeth, and greatly reduces the risk of anesthesia for vet teeth cleaning !

Hi Dawn,
I just wanted to give you an update on Bubba and Sissy. They have both adjusted exceptionally well since Sissy’s arrival. She is definitely the dominant one – no matter what toy Bubba has, she takes it and he either decides to make a game of it or moves on to another toy. They sleep together during naps and at night; Sissy usually lays her head on Bubba and/or they cuddle-up next to each other. Bob and I comment almost daily how thankful we are that we found you. We feel very blessed to have two such happy and lovable puppies. You really do raise/breed “the best”. Sissy has been so easy to potty train. I didn’t even do much – she just follows Bubba’s lead. She’s a very, very smart little girl. I can’t express how much we love both of them! Also, you had requested that I email you regarding Sissy’s info to submit her AKC registration. What do you think about the name Hershey’s Caramel “Sis”? Well, I better get back to work. I look forward to hearing from you. Take care Dawn! |

Hi Dawn
Tom called us from the airport as he leaves town for two days. He tells Lola and me to be patient with Spike and his teething bites! How's that for buying into the puppy???? |
|
Dawn,
I want to thank you so very much for taking the time out of your busy day to provide me with information and advice on what to do with my two new puppies. I am going to take your advice and wait on them. The girls bite may come back with her adult teeth or it may just stay off, but either way she will be able to breed. The boy has been up for sale so I guess if anyone wants to pay 1200.00 for him he will sell, and if not then I will keep him and use him here myself (<: But I am not going to lose my shirt by giving him away for less than I paid. Thank you again and I will keep you posted if and when I start to show here. It is more of a when than an if (<: Doris Madara ~ Dochema's Chihuahua's Breeders Note: Dochema's Chihuahuas is happy with the puppy they bought from me, and unhappy with two that were supposed to be show quality , from another breeder. |

Hi Dawn, I'm getting ready to have Zoe spayed. I was wondering if you
knew from experience, about when it's most likely for a puppy to start
her heat. I was wondering if it was urgent to have it done by her
sixth month, or if I could wait 'til the end of May. All is well, and
she is a beautiful girl. She's the big hit when I take her out to the
dog park. She's had all her shots.
Have a Happy Day,

Hi Dawn, This is Ron Gates from Clayton. We purchased "Bubba" from you
last Feb. He is the joy of our lives. He is an incredible dog. We were
looking at your web page and saw a black & tan female image 0723.We
would be interested in more info on this baby. I guess we are in the
market for a black & tan Chi.
Thanks, Ron |

Gary loves him; he takes him with him everywhere!!! All the residents at the nursing home love Rico, he takes him to the bank, drug store, everywhere!!! He’s great, he loves his crate, he goes right to sleep around 10:00 and sleeps until 7:00. Once in a while he’ll scratch to get up and pee or poop. He’s only had a few accidents; he’s got a great appetite. He’s just such a sweet & gentle puppy. Right now he’s playing with his toys, and loves getting kisses and being held!!! He’s just about 3.5 lbs now, so he’s gain about 1 lb.!!! I can’t thank you enough, we love him more then we ever thought we could. He is perfect in everyway!!! Maybe some day we’ll get him a sister or brother!!! I’ll drop you a line every so often, thank you again!!! |

Hello Dawn! I purchased a darling Ragdoll kitten from you two years ago. She’s so precious!! I would very much like to purchase another female kitten and would like to know if you have any available now or in the near future. Thank you and look forward to hearing from you. Marian Uchikura |

Good Morning Dawn, I just wanted to give you an update on Rico. He is doing fantastic!!! He slept all night last night!! He went to bed at 9:30 in his crate in our room right next to our bed, which he loves, I think he feels very safe & secure in it; he slept right through until 6:00 this morning. He got up, went crazy giving me kisses and running around like a little nut and then went in the litter box and peed and then a few minutes later went in again and pooped!!! He only peeped on the floor once since he’s been home. He’s gone every where with us; to the convalescent home to see my dad, for rides, to my stepdaughter’s house to meet the granddaughter, he did very well with her, growled a little at first and then was fine. He seems to love the car and going places!!! Our cat Milo and Rico are doing fine, Milo let him know that he’s the boss and they seem to be getting a little closer every day. They just sit and look at each other, it’s so cute. In all he is doing fantastic!!! My husband is going to bring him to my work today so everyone can see him. He wants me to hold him all the time and snuggle together!!! I got him a cute stuffed animal and he “humps” it all the time, it’s a riot!!! The guy I work with that owns a kennel said it’s a dominance thing and to let him do it. We gave him a bath last night with the shampoo that came with the puppy pack, he didn’t seem to mind it at all. He’s getting use to his collar and we’re trying to teach him to walk with the harness, that’s still tough for him, but he’ll learn!!! The only problem we seem to be having is he doesn’t seem to want to eat his food. If we smash it up and add some baby turkey food then he eats it right up, but just giving it to him from the bag, he’s not interested in it, any suggestions??? You did an excellent job teaching him to use the litter box and socializing him, I hear so many stories about how mean Chihuahua’s are & how hard it is to potty train them, Rico is wonderful, sweet and loving & very smart!!!! All thanks to you!!! We love him and Thank you for such a great puppy!!! I’ll keep you posted on how he does this week, but I think he’ll do just fine!!! Thanks for such a beautiful and sweet puppy!!! Shirley & Gary |

Hi Dawn,
I just wanted to tell you how much Dave and I love Strudel and Baby Bear. Dave sent you pictures of them yesterday. Our oldest daughter, Melanie, was visiting this week-end and we all took Strudie to the beach for the first time. She really seemed to like it there a lot!! We are keeping her walks interesting and soon Bear will join her. He plays in a big, grassy courtyard at our complex right now. We are being very cautious that Strudie doesn’t jump up or down on anything and no stairs of any kind. We are so happy with our three, Strudie and Bear have filled up our home with love and we aren’t so lonely now that our two daughters are out and on their own. Thank-you for doing a wonderful job of socializing them, they both love people and are very happy here. Schnoptz, our oldest, has adjusted and particularly likes Bear as Bear is much gentler than Strudie!! Our younger daughter, Melissa, lives in S.F. and can’t wait to meet Bear and see how big Strudie has gotten! She talked me into getting Bear and I can’t imagine not having him now!! Thank-you for these healthy, loving, pups!! Sincerely, Jeannie Durian |

Hi Dawn:
Thank you so very much for accommodating my friend Toni (and her family) on such short notice. Again, we both apologize for that - she didn't know she was heading to Atwater until Tuesday afternoon. Toni told me that your pet clientele are very fortunate to have such a good home - one that she rated as better than a 5-star hotel. She was highly impressed with their care and surroundings - and said that you were absolutely delightful. She really enjoyed meeting you. I will be in touch. Thanks once again. Mary |
|
Hi Dawn,
I thought that you were going to pay for my airfare. Actually, I was sending the email from my home address to my office. So the click must have been off one “David” to “Dawn” in my auto address book. But this will give me the opportunity to share a few pictures with you of both Strudel and Baby Bear. They absolutely love each other, which gives our 16 year-old Schnoptz relief from the former “one puppy wildness” directed at him. As you can see from the picture with Jeannie of Strudel’s 1st trip to the beach, her whiskers and beard are growing in nicely. Strudel and Baby Bear are wonderful members of our family. Thanks again, Dave P.S. I am copying in our daughters so that they can see the pictures and check out your web sites. |

Hi, Dawn
I wanted to send you an update on Black Jack. Larry and I can not say enough about him! He has been a blessing to us both, and his "big brother" Spartacus. Everyone who sees him can not believe how adorable he is and hoe friendly he is with strangers. The little guy is to cute and smart for being just over 4 months old. He loves to play hard and sleep hard too! We can not say enough about you and Black Jack! WE LOVE HIM! Our family is complete with him! Thank you for being the breeder that you are ! GREAT WORK Carl Brown, Larry Fleener, Spartacus, and Black Jack |

Hi, Dawn

Hi Dawn, |

Awww man! Well, I might be interested in a pom-chi puppy too...but
this time I would really love a little girl! Do you have any photos
yet? I know you're busy, so take your time with the pics! I just
called my boyfriend and he said that we can come by your place, maybe
sometime in the next week. You know, it's really funny because he
tried talking me out of getting a Chihuahua...he said "i hate little
dogs, they're always yapping!" But now, he's in LOVE with Tito! He
gives him doggie massages, cuddles him and even lets Tito lick his
mouth! I never thought I'd see the day! People are always asking where
I got Tito and I just can't say enough about you and your immaculate
kennels!

Just wanted to thank you again for taking the time to help me , will do all the things u said,
god bless
p.s.
This is a picture of my baby.
Breeders note: this Chihuahua owner is in the UK and couldn't get our Life's Abundance super premium dog food, so I told her what to feed her Chihuahua. |

Hey Dawn!
It's Mattice, now Tito's mommy (his parents are Gideon & Powdered Sugar)...I'm playing with the idea of getting ANOTHER one! You were right, they are addicting! I'm interested in Sugarbun...is she still available? How much would she cost without papers? I don't know if my boyfriend will let me get another one right now...but he's been talking about it for a long time. Tito's such a good boy! The best dog I've ever owned! My daughter is now 15 months old and just learned to walk...Tito was what made her start walking, she LOVES him! If we don't get a puppy right now, we will definitely be getting another one within the next year (and hopefully more after that!) Thanks again Dawn, you're the BEST!!! Love, Angela, Travis, Taya & Tito P.S. - I attached five photos of Tito, the last two are of him with my daughter :) |

Hi Dawn,
Just wanted to send an email with an update on little Miss Mia (previously Barbie), who we bought from you in October of 05. Mia is such a great dog. We had a new baby last March, and prior to him being born, we were really worried about our little girl, as she's not a kid friendly dog. We had someone come and work with her to be more comfortable around people, by just working with her, based on her personality. We shouldn't have worried. The minute we bought our son home, it was HER baby. And even though he's nearly a year old, and now an active toddler, she's still as patient with him as she was the day he came home. She always makes sure she keeps an eye on him if I turn my back, and she constantly tries to give him kisses (although, now he pushes her out of the way). This was a pleasant surprise, as our older lab, doesn't like him, but generally tolerates him. She still gets upset around other kids, but our son will always be her baby. Statia |

Hi Dawn,
It was lovely to tour your kennel yesterday, thanks so much!
I'm going to be moving into a house here with a nice yard and would love to have a black and tan long haired puppy when you have one, to be a companion for my Zuka. I loved the way your black and tan girl snuggled up to your neck yesterday. What a sweetie! Below is a picture of the Audi R8 that we spoke of yesterday.
The REAL interesting news is that they are planning to bring out a DIESEL version of this sports car that will actually be MUCH faster than the current gas version! Talk soon, Jerry Kroll Breeders Note: Yes, this is THE famous Jerry Kroll of auto racing |

Hello! Me and Koda were passing your house on our way to Monterey,
i was telling Koda that his first mommy lived there and that he was
born there.
Anywho i thought i would send you some updated pics now that he's 1 year old. right now his favorite thing is to play in the snow. |
|
Hi Dawn,
"Gabriella" or Gabby. is doing great and is already well adjusted to her new home! Everybody she has come in contact with is in love with her and she doesn't leave my side- Will give her your love and kisses and thank you again! Shell |

JUST LOVED A LOT!
THATS OUR BOY SPUDS...9 MONTHS OLD
Breeders note: " Spuds is not spoiled" ..... Men often resist their wives getting "little rat dogs" , but then become completely smitten with them, and "take over" the Chihuahua. If you're married, expect to have to get two so you don't fight over them ! These ultimate lap dogs are also great at helping people get over serious medical issues, because they love to cuddle and give you sympathy :) |
|
Hello Dawn,
I was going to make Cody an appointment with a vet and you mentioned the name of the one you use in Turlock could you tell me his name? I looked at his shot records but I am not sure of the dates of when I take Cody in so thought I would make an appointment and let the vet help me with that. Cody is doing great and he thinks he is the boss of our Lab they love each other. We call Cody a neck dog not a lap dog because his favorite place to lay his right up snuggled under my chin. He is truly a wonderful little dog. Thanks, Mary Cotton Dawns Response: We highly recommend Dr. Brandon Barrett Community Veterinary Clinic , 310 Crane Avenue, Turlock, CA. 95380 209-634-5851 for tiny dogs, and other small or exotic animals. |

Hi Dawn,
That's very kind of you, but honestly I was very happy to refer Amy to you. I'm sure I'll be sending others your direction as well since I feel very strongly that you have the happiest little puppies I've ever seen. Bob and I feel very blessed that we found you and Bubba. We can't believe how well Bubba has adjusted and how happy and lovable he is. He's doing exceptionally well on housebreaking too. We're using the potty pads and a litter box and he goes right to the them when he has to go potty or "messy". Rather than a finders fee, just promise us that when we get our second little puppy, she will be just as wonderful as Bubba. Also, as soon as my daughter moves to a "pet friendly" apartment, promise that you will help select the perfect little puppy for her. By the way, did your pom-chi female have her puppies last night or today and did she have any little girls? Well it's play time again, so I'm going to end this email and go attend to my baby. Thanks again for our newest addition. We love, Love, LOVE him! Take care Dawn! Nedra Metz |

Hello Dawn,
We are loving our Cody and he is being a good boy. He has used his Kitty box and just loves cuddling with us. He fits right in with our family. I have a question for you. We have a sweet black lab that usually comes in the house a few times during the day and lays on the carpet. Is it too soon to introduce Cody to him. I realize we have to be careful with his size but as far as Cody being healthy enough to be near him is that ok? Thanks for you help, Mary Cotton Breeders reply: Vaccinated big dogs shouldn't pass dangerous diseases, UNLESS they track in germs on their feet from a dog park or somewhere. However you MUST hold the tiny puppy , or the tiny puppy must be on the other side of it's puppy fence or baby gate from big dogs, they're way too fragile to be under foot ! |
|
Hi Dawn,
It's Sophia, I just wanted to let you know that Ginger is doing great! She has grown so much already, I cant belive how chubby she is getting, she is really cute! She is so playfull Gets along very well with other dogs and just loves everyone! I tried to get a good pic of her to send to you but she just moves to much! Well take care and if I can ever get a pic of her I will send it to you. Sophia |

Pictures of my new little puppy Zoe, with her best friend hershey
I took her to the vets today and the first thing you hear people always say is "I've never seen a dachshund that looks like this. They loved her there, and all wanted to hold her.
Have a Happy Day, |

Hi Dawn
My name is Debbie and I am Carson's mom who just bought Layla. Carson was here for a week with her and just left to go back to SF. She is so adorable and has such a fun and adventuresome personality. I was sorry to see her go. She got along great with our standard. I'm thinking about one of the females black/tan who are three weeks old . I am leaving for Cabo tomorrow and won't be back until the 27th. We can talk when I get back, but I really like Layla and if I am going to get one I really want her personality. I'll talk to you when I return. Debbie |
|
Hi Dawn,
My family is IN LOVE with her!! She follows me everywhere, she has been so good. Thanks again, we will keep in touch. Oh, on the drive she slept in my arms the entire ride, what a relief!
Take care, Carson |

Hi Dawn,
I’m looking for the tiniest Chihuahua available. We purchased one from a pet store last December but after 4 days, he was diagnosed with parvo virus. We had him treated for about 5 days but he did not survive. We prefer the short coat and I like the white and grayish black on the picture, the very first one….almost like the size of the palm. I live in Yorba Linda, California, please direct me to the nearest breeder. Thanks, Liz Breeders Note: Please don't buy puppies at pet stores. You might be supporting the parents having miserable caged lives ! I hear these types of sad stories all the time ! Dawn |

Thanks again for being such an angel. Andrew and I were
talking last night about how much we love Charlie and Daisy and how
glad we are that we have these babies in our life and I told him that
i thought that you were an ANGEL cause without you we would not have
them ! ! ! ! !
Soooooooooooooooo thanks again. They are soooooooooooooooooooooooo important to us. And now Nessa has her own apartment and has Elliot with her. He is her baby and when she comes to visit she brings him to visit too and he is so excited to see us. It is all just so neat and wonderful and perfect.......ALL because of you. Love ya.... Sheila |

Hi Dawn,
Jeannie wanted me to send you some more pictures so you would know that Strudel is already spoiled, and that she has definitely brightened up our lives. Although we are enduring sleep deprivation, “Strudie” seems to get all the sleep (and anything else) that she wants... I “got” the “got dachshund?” T-shirt that Jeannie is wearing from eBay for her birthday in May 2006. I checked today, and it’s not currently offered, but eBay is a great place to find dachshund “stuff”, and you may see that same shirt if you look periodically.
The “Who’s Your Doggy?” shirt that Strudel is wearing, I found
months ago in the $1 bin at CVS. I had “bin” saving it for the perfect
moment. |

Dawn,
Here's some pics of the little ones.... sooooo precious!!
Breeders Note:puppies born from Stud Service to SNS Little Boy Blue ! |
|
Dawn, It was so nice to meet you -- you are an amazing woman! It was so obvious to both Chris and me that all those little animals are being raised with lots of love. It was fascinating to see them all together and so socialized. We are having a great time with these two kitties. We renamed the black one so that they are now Sugar and Spice. From the moment they were in the car, they were so sweet and wonderful. There has been no adjustment at all for them, and that's because of the way you raised them. Rest assured that they will be happy here. I'll send you some photos soon. Thanks for everything. Have a great day! |

Hey Dawn,
Its Tara and Tammy and here are some pics of coco and tiffany
they are doing really well they are getting along and playing they
are so cute.

Hey Dawn,

really good puppy and I think Santa will be bringing me lots of
presents!!!

| Chanel is doing great. My email is still down and getting fixed tomorrow. Will send photos then. She is doing great. Tiffany began to play with her today. Our home is large and she gets lost, but knows where her safe spot is. She already took over two new bones and has a new toy. She is eating very well and did fine on the road home. She is going potty outside with Tiffany. She much prefers the bark planters to the lawn. Tiffany herds her into the house and doesn't let her go where she shouldn't. |  |
| Tiffany
is still bent out of shape a little, but definitely warming up.
Chanel sleeps with Tara and is sleeping through the night. Wakes at
about 6am to go outside. She has only wet one time in the house.
Wow! Everyone adores her, she is precious. I checked Tiffany's
papers and Sky is her father too. Chanel goes to the vet tomorrow.
Will send cute pics.
Thanks again, |

you all a safe and happy holiday season and a fabulous 2008! xoxo Kelli, Sassy, Tiara, & Violet |

Yes,... here they are. The "furrier" one with my daughter is spoken
for. The one in the Teacup has 3 VERY interested lookers. The 3rd looks just like Elle and I don't think we'll have trouble finding a buyer. If not, we'd sure like to keep her!
Thank you for all your advice! I tell people about you that ask
about the dad! |

Dawn - Got home safe & sound at 6:30 pm. Got the girls settled in my
bathroom in an x-pen & litter box. They were very good & hardly made a
mess in their crate & never complained the drive home. They are playing
& trying to drag the newspaper & their pink blankeys into the litter
which they just used. Sorry you all were worried, but Sue had to take
one of her rat terriers to the vet & we didn't get out of here until
10:00 & it took us a bit over 3 hrs with the dense fog in the Pocono
Mountains. Hope you got my message at 7pm. Will try again after I go out
& check the chessies.

Dear Dawn, I want to thank you for the time you spent with me today. I really learn a lot each day about these little guys. I was pleased to see all of your wonderful puppies! I know how much time and effort it takes to maintain the many critters in my family and I have a lot of respect for how much time and hard work must go into running your operation . I was so happy to get a REAL opinion about My Ocsar and My little Emma. I truly feel that this is something I would really like to pursue. I do love the little guys even though I never thought I would be a " little dog " person. I talked with my girls and they will decide if they want to give up "their" puppy or come up with $400.00 and get the puppy fixed . I will have an answer for you soon and then I will come back by and we can be finished with this step. I don't want to sell any of the puppies until I get all the registrations worked out and everyone has their papers. You have been so kind and helpful , I can't wait to branch out and get a few more Doxies.and possibly enter the show ring it sounds like fun and some of the shows I have looked at run concurrent with the show circuit for my Cow Horses ! I will keep you posted and let you know if I can swing a cream . I really love all the shades of red ,( must be all the red heads in my house) but I am in no rush . For now they are still beautiful to look at , but then again I think they are all wonderful . Thank You once again! I will be in touch soon Julie Price |

Hi Dawn,
I just wanted to thank you for delivering Coco Chanel safely to us
yesterday. Claudia was so wonderful for driving Coco to us so that my
daughter could spend the weekend with her! Coco is doing great and
she is delightful. She is well mannered and trained. We are so happy
to have her part of our family. :-)
Thank you,
Marlene

Blessings,

| Hi , yes I received my puppy and was it ever in fine shape. It was so clean and not any dirty mess on her at all. She was shipped so very nice, actually I was surprised to receive her in such good shape, The vet I took her today said looks like she has been well taken care of. I hope he faxed you her vet report, if he didn't let me know and I will. I renamed her Callie, because she came from California her middle name is pretty lady. Ok? As soon as my granddaughter gets the pictures downloaded I will email them to you. Thanks again for a great puppy. All my neighbors were waiting to see her and everyone loves her. We think she is just beautiful so cute and just wonderful. of course we have already fallen in love with her. Patricia Clemmons |

Hi Dawn, Just a note to let you know that Tootsie, our choc and tan Dachshund, had puppies yesterday. All good so far. Two females and Two males. One female has a bright white strip on her chest, so when I go to submit it to AKC what should I put her down as a Choc and Tan or a Choc and Tan Piebald? They are out of your stud GH Chocolate Cream Pie. Thanks, Joni and Jim Sharp |

Hey guys..... This is what we did yesterday. We took the doggies and went in the boat up the coast to this little bay......Bahia de las suenuas................Bay of dreams. They have this restaurant there called the Giggling Marlin. What a beautiful bay and all of these pongeros take people out fishing and then come in and clean there fish so the pelicans all gather around. Really cool. And the boat in the background is Andrew's boat. Mi Corazon. Love ya, |

Hi Dawn, We celebrated Nutmeg’s first birthday yesterday! The girls were excited to wrap some dog treats and a sweater for her. Nutmeg continues to be the attention-getter around here. She gives so much love it’s hard not to stop what you’re doing and give it back. Of course that’s when she’s not into mischief with the cat Frank, running under the couch with a Barbie or getting a little snack from the kitty litter. She deserves the name, “Naughty Nutty.” Of course her naughtiness is why we love her too. All of us enjoy and love her very much! Thank you and I hope things are going well for you and all yours. Thanks again Dawn, Rod & Trudy Simas and Girls, Nutmeg and Frank |

Hi Whisper!
Didn't think Maisy was pregnant until about 1 month then... Whoa! She is huge! She is 12.5lbs today. I estimate her delivery anytime after tomorrow. I will send you puppy pics as soon as I can after delivery. Can't tell you how excited we are. The attached pictures are from last weekend at 7.5wks.  You will be hearing from me soon! Bye for now.

Hi Dawn,
I just wanted to give you an update on Tiffy. Well, she is doing Great!! She is such a sweet little dog and so smart. When I take her out for a walk it is like walking down the street with a movie star! Everyone comments on how beautiful she is, her beautiful face, her blond hair! She is truly a celebrity around here. In fact some people would rather see her than me! And she is a wonderful companion and friend. We do almost everything together. She sleeps with me at night and now I don't think I could fall asleep without her in the bed. Once she was playing and I lay down without her and she started jumping about 3 feet straight up in the air to let me know she wanted to get un bed! She is sooooo cute. I take very good care of her and she is in perfect health and very happy. We are best friends. I was wondering - does she need another rabies shot next April? Is there anything else she should have? Also, did you ever clip her nails, is that something I should be doing? She grooms her front paws very well and I haven't wanted to intrude by clipping her nails, what do you think? I am sending you a couple of pictures. Tiffy has such a beautiful smile! I hope you are doing well. Take Care, Susan -Carley   |

Hi, Dawn!
Dony is doing very well over here. He is even better than the day he first arrived in the USA. My brother and I can not thank you enough for taking care of our boy while he was in the able hands of SNS kennel's management. You have a bunch of show hopefuls there alright and I am sure they each have a bright future in the show ring. Paul can certainly help you with showing them in the Philippines. Again, THANKS SO MUCH, DAWN! And God bless YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Elmer |

Hi Dawn,
I can't believe that we've had Louis V for only 2 months now. He seems like he has always been a part of our family. He has adjusted very well and is the sweetest little dog! We enjoyed our visit with you when we adopted Louis V and couldn't believe how difficult it was to chose the right puppy. I can say without a doubt, that he was the best choice. I have attached a recent photo of him for you to see. Thank you again, Lisa Bradley  |

Dr. John Sheridan (retired pediatrician) brought a bunch of really
cute captioned photos and asked us to post a couple of them of his
beloved "Amigo" , that we had named "SNS Blue Sirus Star". Amigo's
best friend is a green conure parrot Bubba. Dr. Sheridan brought his
auntie Jacquline last Saturday to help her pick a puppy, and she
bought our little "Justin" , so now Amigo will also have a Chihuahua
to visit and play with:) Dr. Sheridan says that "Amigo" has been an
absolute joy to his life and is his constant side kick :) He's such
a good boy, so well behaved and friendly to everyone. Gramma Dawn is
proud :)
 Amigo says "John takes good pictures, I wish someone would teach him how to put on a harness.  Amigo LOVES Bubba (green parrot) . Bubba is not so sure. |

Hi Dawn,
Just wanted to let you know that Bindy made it home just fine, she protested a little at first in the crate, but then quieted right down. She almost made it home without getting sick but the last 2 miles before my home was a little bumpy and she threw up a little. When we got home she drank some water and I gave her a little Nutri-cal. She settled right in, met the cat, played a little. (I only had a little collar on her for just a short time) I have her ex pen set up in the kitchen and again she protested a little at first, but she learned really fast that if she sat and was quiet she got to come right out and then she settled in and started playing with her toys and chewing on her cow hoof. She ate several times already and used her litter box about 3 - 4 times! What a great puppy! She has made me so happy, I just had to cry when she fell asleep in my arms tonight.    Thank you so much! I hope your trip to SFO went well... I'll be in touch! Take care, Shirley |

Dear Dawn,
Here's a picture from our visit to your facility. We can't wait to bring this beautiful, adorable puppy home when she's old enough. Her personality, attentiveness and calm nature won us over - she basically picked us!  Ken & Shirley Thompson Chowchilla |

Hello Dawn,
I wanted to take the time to say hello and let you know I am FULLY in love and bonded to my son. Valentino (Val) is doing just great. He has adapted to our family wonderfully. He will not leave my side and always has to be on my lab when I am doing homework. He will only sit with my husband when he is home and I am not. It is funny. My husband loves him just as much as I do. He is just the most WONDERFUL thing in my life. I am so happy I got him from you. I have seen other Chihuahua’s that I wonder where they came from as they are just very different than Val. I think you do a WONDERFUL job training them from the time they are born to the time you sell them. I just wanted to say thank you again for giving me the greatest gift I could ever ask for. Val is a wonderful son. Val has adapted to our yellow lab very well. They both will lay together and it is the cutest thing ever. Blake (yellow lab) protects his brother and is the cutest thing. He almost treats him like Val is his son. It is just the cutest thing. They get along so great. I have a question for you. I am taking Val on his first camping trip and was wondering if these little dogs can swim? I know people say if they have 4 legs they can swim, but I know some can’t. So, I thought I would ask you before I go. I was thinking about getting him a life jacket so he does not try to go out in the swim hole and drown. I know they sell them so I think I will get him one anyway, but I want to take extra precautions so he is safe and I don’t have to worry about him sneaking off without me seeing him do it. Any insight you can give me would be great. Well, thanks again for giving me the greatest gift of all. I am so happy with him. I had him micro-chipped so he can’t get lost. :) I would be devasted if something happen to him. Thanks again for everything. :) Hope you have a wonderful day. Dawn Davidson |
