Dear Pat Self,                                                                                      2/5/09
 
Strawberry 5 arrived safely, after playing for a while she jumped in to the bed of our older IG, at this moment they are bought sleeping. Our ig seems to do well with strawberry 5, although i'm not sure how she feels about sharing her bed haha.
 
Thank you,

Just wanted to send you an update on Rei for you. Attached are some photos. She is doing great and is enjoying being a fun puppy. Unfortunately just a few days ago she did break her right leg. My husband was bringing her inside and she jumped right out of his arms before he could sit her down. So we have taken her to an orthopedic surgeon and she is in surgery today. So besides that she is doing great and we can't wait for her to make a full recovery.
We had a quick question on her parents. How much does each of her parents weigh about how high do they stand? She is growing so much and we are curious as to how much bigger she might get.

Thank you,

Sarah

Annie was born 6/29/08 and my daughter and I came down to pick her up for her birthday.  She has been a real joy.  I've attached a couple of pictures.  She even won a blue ribbon in the children's dog show our town had last fall. (Smallest Dog)!  She gets along so well with everyone and all the dogs on our walks.  Thank you, again!

Hi Pat,                                                                                                                                              1/13/08

It has been about 7 months since McKenzie came home and we can’t picture our lives with out her. She is so lovable and such a personality on her. She just fits so great with us. I just wanted you to know that she is doing well and give you an update. Thanks for the great pup. I recommend you to every one.

 I attached some pictures for you with her older brother Jackson, who she loves to play with.

 Just wanted to update you on Lily's progress. She is playing well with the other dogs. She spent an hour last night running with her sister. She slept through the night in her crate with out an accident. She is making progress on housetraining. She is eating and drinking, but doesn't seem to like eating out of the bowl. If you put the food on the floor or in your hand she does better. She seems very healthy and happy. I will try to get her to my vet next wek for her first checkup. Thanks for a great puppy.

Hi Pat,                                                                                                     1/4/09

I hope this email finds you well and enjoying the new year. I just wanted to check in and let you know that Sassy (who we adopted from you last November) is doing fabulously. The vet always comments on how alert and active she is and she always checks out with a clean bill of health. She has gained two pounds since I did also want to send you a picture - she has gained two pounds since arriving here in Maryland, and has taken to my other dog (another Havanese).

I also wanted to follow up to see if you had received the registration papers? And if yes, could you kindly send them to me in the mail?

Thank you very much! Sassy has been a joy to have in our home and we love her very much!

Hey!                                                                                                      12/12/08

    I received my Havanese from you less than a month ago. I could not have made a better decision! He is so playful and happy it is almost unreal! I brought him to his vet and there was nothing the vet could find wrong with him! He was in perfect condition. He loves his new home and he is already 100% spoiled by everybody. I also get a lot of offers to buy him from me!! Thank you so much. I could not have asked for a better dog from the personality, behavior, and health. He is also very intelligent. He must have caught on to some things from the other dogs over there. He was potty trained the second day I had him and has never pottied in the house! Here are some pictures of him on the AWESOME snow day Louisiana had yesterday!

Thank you again,

Hailey Renee'
                          

Hi Pat,                                                                                                                                                         12/12/08

 Five years ago we bought a tiny little Papillon girl from you (3 lbs adult weight).  We love her dearly, her name is Jazmine, but we call her our Teddy Bear as she constantly wants to be held and loved.  We are thinking of adding another puppy to our gang.  Would you have any other tiny girls around?  Adult weight - less than 5 lbs?

Good afternoon.  I bought my min pin from you.  We named him Chug-Bug.  I don't know if you remember me or not or if you remember Chug-Bug.  He is a chocolate min pin.  He was born on 4-19-03 and we picked him up on 6-26-03.  I have told a lot of people about you.  I lost the pics I had of Chug-Bug's mom and dad that you sent me, but I thought you might like to see what he looks like now.  Here he is with his brother that we got in August 2003.  Chug-bug has been a blessing to me and my husband.  I never knew that we could get so much joy out of a breed.  He is so smart, funny and very independent.  Well, I will let you go.  I just thought maybe not too many people follow up with you and thought it would be nice to do so.

We absolutely love our Cosi (Havanese). She was so easy to potty train with the UGO, and is now dual trained to use it or go outside. She is just now realizing when she needs to go and will go to the door if we are at home otherwise she uses the UGO. I can honestly say we only cleaned about a handful of accidents since we got her.  She went to the vet to get her rabies shot and had gained a pound since we got her. She sits, dances, pattycakes, (claps her paws together on command) and this week I feel that she will have the roll over down pat. What an easy breed to train! We need more ideas for tricks, as she is the perfect one to teach them to. AND I LOVE THE NO SHEDDING!

 
I do have a quick question. Will we need to take her to a groomer for a haircut? Her hair is growing longer and starting to part on her back. I don't want her to look like a bald dog with a fluffy tail. We like her "dustmop" appearance, but how do you tell a groomer? No one around here knows the breed!! I've checked. I am so scared that they will shave her torso or something.
 
 
Just thought I'd check in and tell you what is going on with her.

We took the puppy, now named Shoemaker's Soul, to the Vet on Monday evening.  The Vet said that she looks great!

I just wanted to send you a picture back of the Italian Greyhound I purchased. She arrived safe and happy. Thanks for the the way she was shipped...she looked snug as a bug in a rug! Just love her. I took her to the vet and they said how healthy she looked. Thanks!!! I named her Shiloh.

Sending you a couple pictures. Thanks again!! Denise

      

Hello Pat,                                                                                                                                              11/22/08
 
We wanted to thank you for our wonderful, loving dog Saja!  She has been such a blessing to our home and we have greatly enjoyed having her.  We have enclosed some pictures for you to see how happy she is.  She loves people and always grabs everyone's attention on our walks.  People just think she is so adorable!  She is very healthy and is learning commands very quickly.  We are very happy with the quality of your dogs and we would definitely buy another puppy from you again. 
 
Thanks so much!

Dear Pat,                                                                                                                                                             11/19/08
       Just an up-date on Pooh Bear's winter experiences here, South of Buffalo. Lake Effects snow arrived to the tune of 18 inches and our little Havanese thought it lots of fun. She comes inside a moving snowball! At first I rinsed the snow balls off her legs with tepid water and dried her off with a towel. Then our kitchen started looking like the YMCA Locker room with towels all over the place. Now I just let her melt along with the Poodles. She doesn't seem to mind in the slightest.She is completely housebroken and sleeps upstairs in her dog bed with the other girls.Had her Rabies shot and nails clipped yesterday so she's good 'til Jan. 5th when she will be spayed.Pooh is a joy and we just love her to death. We still keep her in the kitchen when we're gone because, like any baby, she can be quite a destructive chewer. She has learned how to go up our main stairs but going down is still too scary and she reluctantly lets us give her a lift down. Is there any danger in letting Havanese climb stairs? I know some breeds should not do it but I have no idea about Havanese.
                                        Sincerely,
                                         Sally

We were wondering if you had a picture of Saja's mom and dad. (Marchwind Reality Check and Gizmos Party Time)  We are making a puppy album and we would like to have pictures of them to add to the beginning of the album.  Plus, we have several people asking us what color her parents are.  People just love her and think she is so beautiful!!  Thanks for all you have done for us, we really love her!

Hi Pat          1                                                                                                                    11/12/08

Thank you for answering my questions earlier about Beanie. 

Beanie brings so much enjoyment to my family!  He is a wonderful dog.

I forgot to ask you.  I know you post new born pictures on your website.  Beanie was born Feb 22, 2008.  Liter #17FD1D-06.  I was wondering if you have his “baby” picture?

 Thanks again,

Rhonda Mandel

Rei has been a great addition to our family. She has really settled in and loves her new home. She still has a lot of learning to do, but we are glad we get to be a part of it with her. She is a great cuddle buddy and loves to love on us. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

Thanks,

  Hello Pat,                                                                                         10/24/08

I just wanted to let you know I am probably going to name him PEPPER.  He is HOT STUFF      My mom said the Havanese sounds like the HOT PEPPER, so became the name Pepper.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE him.  He would have never found a better home. The grandkids came over tonight to see him and they fell in love to.  Korbyn, my 3 year old grandson said he looked like a ball with hair on it that bounced.  LOL  Just wanted to let you know,  Thanks again for this wonderful little guy!!!     Karen

God Bless,   Karen

Hi Pat,                                                                                          10/13/08

 

I just wanted to tell you again how wonderful our 2 3/4 year old Havanese "Cali" is.  She was one of Pepper's Pups January of 2006.  She is a very special part of our family.  We are also happy to say she saw her sister on a walk this morning! 
 
We hope you are doing well!  We love looking at all the puppies you have to offer although we are not ready for a second dog - yet!!

We purchased a miniature pincher from you 3 years ago. She is the best thing that has happened to us since the kids have grown up & moved away. We were wondering if you had any female, black & rust puppies? I have attached a picture of our little one... Thank you for your time.

Hi Pat .                                                                                                 10/9/08
 
We bought both of our Papillons from you . They are just the healthiest little guys and so happy . I have attached a recent pic of them for you . Dolly (the sable and white female) is now 2 1/2 yrs old and Bandit (the black and white male) is 10 months old . As you can see They lay on an 'oversized; stuffed dog with their hundreds of toys in their 'toy box'  . Bandit is always curious as to what our grandson is doing when he comes to visit, and loves to try to get in the bathtub with him . Again ..... thanks for the wonderful pets !!

Hi Patricia! 0
He was born 05-04-08 I don't have it in front of me but I know mom and
dad were armstrong and freckles or something like that.  His name is Lyric and he is a fast growing boy. I say he weighs close to 7 lbs. He has a 2 yr old brother name Bucky who is a Jack Russell mix.  They love each other. They keep me and my friends entertained with their playing. He loves squeaky toys esp the tennis balls I buy from petsmart.  He hates sleeping under the covers. I am still trying to break him from using the bathroom in my place but I know patience he will.  Anyways I wanted to send you an email and let you know he has a wonderful new family and a mom that loves him to death.

Thanks

One Love, Mandy

I just wanted to send a thank you note to you. I stumbled upon your email tonight and I thought I should let you see how well my Misty girl is doing. You shipped her to me in Ct in Dec of 03. I will never forget that day I went to the airport to get my little Tigermist Moontoes. She is everything a pom should be and more. She is my constant companion and best friend. Thank you so much. She is such a blessing to me and my children. If I ever get a pom again I will definitely go through you. You are a kind person who answered all my new mom neurotic questions.

A very happy pommie mommie,
