Two weeks already. She is up above 12 pounds and her sweater is starting
to look a bit small. Here is a picture of her asleep on the blanket while
I wash sheets. Tried to get a picture of her awake, but they were all
a blur.
She is a very busy girl.

Hi Danny and Darla I just wanted to let you know that Jack and I made
it home safely. He slept when we got to Liverpool and didn't wake until
we were almost home. He has been quite busy since we have been home exploring
every part of the house. I will send a picture as soon as my son gets
home. Happy Holidays and thank you so much for everything.
He is an adorable puppy and he will be loved dearly by all of us.

Hi Darla
Just wanted to drop a line to let
you know how we appreciate you hospitality, What a pleasant way to do
business Perdy arrived safely to our home . Her brother and sister just
love her they are quite bigger then she is so we are very carefull with
are them playing together . We was able to take her to the vet today
all seemed fine ,she weighed 11 Lbs they did think her stomach was a
little bloated so they dewormed her. Although i was sure you told us
it was done but our vet said it would not hurt her and to be on the safe
side .We will be taking her back in a couple of weeks to have shots updated.
I do think we are going to have her micro chipped for our new baby girl,
it seems like safe thing to do but they never leave our sight,but just
to be on safe side . I was able to attach a couple of pictures
Please
let me thank you again .
Thanks Missy & Gary

Hi Darla;
The little ones are doing fine. They are learning little by little to
go outside to go potty.
They are spoiled and have lots of toys to play
with. I attached a couple of pics for you.

Darla - Piglet (as I call her) has gained weight steadily due to her
great appetite. She fnishes her meals, then goes after the cat food.
So I have to restrain her while they are eating.
She is now almost 11 pounds. When the weather is warm, she is able to
run an entire half-mile. When it is cold, she refuses to leave the porch
unless I carry her. Big dogs who bark are VERY scary and she demands
to be picked up again. She has taught herself how to go up the stairs,
but has not mastered going down yet.
Her first vet visit will be the first weekend in January. I will keep
you posted. Should have some more pictures soon.
She is a dear and gets lots of kisses. People love her eyes.

Hi! I printed some pictures (at Rite Aid) yesterday
but took some even cuter ones last nite, so I'll get those printed
and send them. We re-named our little guy "Logan" - and he's
fitting in just fine. I really have to keep after him, tho. I forgot
how many times a day a puppy has to potty!! Reggie and Ty (our other
2 dogs) are getting used to him and
even played with him a little this
AM. He has those sharp puppy teeth so I'm glad they have thick coats.
Unfortunately, Tim and I don't! He slept most of last nite. I took him
out around 2:30AM and then he made it til we got up. I won't make you
nuts with daily reports, but he's just so cute that I had to share!

That is amazing all the way from canada!! Your kennel was amazingly
beautiful I told everyone about it! Chloe has been great. She wined on
the way home and now she follows me everywhere tugging on the back of
my boot!! We will always keep in touch and hopefully see you in a few
years!! :) thank you again so much Danielle
On Dec 4, 2011 1:34 PM, "dannydarla@netzero.net"
It was so nice to meet you, and Thanks for the pic. You are a beautiful
family, and Little Chole makes it complete.
Did you get any sleep last
night? Keep in touch I LOVE to here from you.
I'm down to 6 puppies,
two days ago I had 12 .
There was a couple that came from Canada today,to
get their puppy,
He is the first one we have across the border.
Have a good day

Hi Darla
They are doing fine. They did very well on the ride home. I
had forgotten how often new puppies have to pee. LOL They did not cry
at all last night. I was surprised but then they have each other to snuggle
with and I gave them
my big dalmatian stuffed animal to cuddle with too.
I will get a pic to you on the weekend.
They love to play outside in
the leaves. Thank you for everything.

Thanks for the picture! Wish I could figure out how to print it - or
order a print! Of course we've started a puppy album for him.
He had a good trip home - we only had to stop 2 times and he slept the
rest of the way - either on my lap or on a blankie on the floor. By time
he squiggled around and got comfy, he was usually pretty much under the
front seat!
I'll send you a picture of his new "home". We put a waterproof
pad under an old matress pad on our TV room floor, put an XPen on it
to make a playyard and in it we put a kennel cab (with a hot water bottle,
blanket and toys) and then some other toys and a Rawhide to chew on.
I keep him out with me while I clean and so on, but he goes in the "pen" when
he seems tired or when we eat. He's been wonderful outside - only 1 miss
so far and that was my fault. Had an appt and had to leave him for several
hours (in his pen) and I knew he couldnt hold it that long. Other than
that, I take him out 3-4 times from 9AM til we get up at 5 - soon as
I hear him whine, I get up and take him out.
We have a wire crate for him, set up next to the 2 we have for the other
pups in our bedroom, and he has a comfy pad and a couple of toys to sleep
with. He's done very well!! No whining during even first nite, tho he
does raise a ruckus when he has to go into his playpen during the day.
Wants to be cruising with the big guys, but there's too much for him
to get in to if I can't watch him.
I Will send you a couple of prints (I'm ignorant and old fashioned!
I've never tried to download (or is it upload??)
from my camera into the compuyter!) but I think he's pretty happy, the
other dogs are getting used to him and the kitties keep their distance
but they don't hiss or really avoid him. He's so bouncy and full of energy
that I think he scares them!
I'll keep you posted - thanks again for everything.

Thank you so much. Chloe is such a great addition to our family! We
love her
Sun, 4 Dec 2011
Darla -
She slept much of the night with Callie Mae and me. The rest
of the time she was so focused on play
I had to banish her to her crate.
Today she has spent much of the day racing back and forth through the
bedroom and hall as I straighten,
strip the bed, and vacuum. Callie Mae
is asserting her dominance, but has not ever snapped. She is eating well,
and I will take her to PetSmart later to get a sweater that fits.
Here is a photo of her "helping" as I
strip the bed.

Hi Darla - She is adapting quickly. We have taken two walks with a leash.
Second one was almost half a mile. I only carried her a short part of
that. The rest of the time she was bounding after Callie Mae and chasing
leaves. She pooped once and peed three times that second walk. She has
learned she likes Milk Bones and Pupperoni, ate well this evening. Hardest
thing is getting her tired enough to sleep. Have pictures and video on
my phone. Will send as soon as I get a chance to edit.

Hi Darla and Danny,
Just a couple of lines to let you know that Bridie
is doing great! Now that the weather is getting nicer she spends much
of the day outdoors. We live in a rural area - pretty much surrounded
by small farms - and I take Bridie and Ceilidh for walks through the
fields. They are both free to run although Ceilidh is so arthritic she
does not do
much running. Bridie on the other hand does large circles
around us as we move through the fields.
The field behind the house is
planted in winter rye grass which is now as high as Bridie's shoulders.
She goes crazy running through the grass. She is doing very well with
her commands - into her kennel, sitting, and coming (unless she is distracted
by chasing a bird or butterfly). Bridie weighed in at 22 pounds on the
last trip to the vet. She is a "rock star" at the vets. Our
vet is a woman Doc and she makes a big fuss over Bridie as do all of
the girls who work there. Bridie is up-to-date with all of her shots
and she is due to be spayed in May.
Even though she has grown so much she still wants to be held when it
is time for her to take a nap (I think Darla spoiled her with too many
hugs!!!!). I am an early to bed person because I get up early to go to
the gym but Gael spends the evening watching TV with Bridie (Ceilidh
is usually passed out in another room). It is amazing how much time Bridie
spends actually appearing to watch the TV - all in all she is a very,
very bright dog and learns quickly.
Gael and I can not thank you enough
for allowing us to bring Bridie home with us. We will make a strong effort
to
get up your way this spring although both of our boys are coming home
in May for a week or so - I'm sure they will
be spending their hours
with Bridie.. Both of the Boys have commented that they will "Wear
Bridie out.".
How naive they are - they do not have clue how high energy Bridie really
is. It should be fun.
We hope that both of you are well and hope you have a nice Holiday weekend.
Tom and Gael

Hello. My names Miranda.
Two years ago on valentines day my family and I came to pick out or new
puppy. We names him Slider O' Shea and took him home on March 14. He's
now two years old and the best puppy we could have asked for. We love
him so much. I wanted to send you a picture of him two years later
and thank you for this wonderful gift. We now live in Florida and Slider
had a big yard to run and play with. We found he doesn't like the ocean
much though. He likes playing with my grandpas dog. Anyways thank you
so much.?
Sun, 30 Jan 2011
Hi Darla and Danny,
Thought you might like to hear
a word or two about "Ms
Bridie". She has really grown. Se is getting to be very muscular.
Just two weeks ago when we picked her up from you I carried her down
to the mailbox wrapped in a blanket. NOT NOW!!! She is more than a handful
now. Her house training is going great and she has really made herself
at home. I try to keep her under my eye but she has made several "stealth"
moves to run up the stairs, grab one Gael's wool socks, and come back
down in a flash. Almost like she just robbed the bank. Then she sits
there with the look of total innocence. She still likes to be held when
she is ready for a nap but then she takes the nap in her crate. We have
an old peach basket full of dog toys that we have accumulated over the
years and we keep it in the basement/TV room. It takes Bridie all of
about 3 minutes to totally empty the basket and scatter the toys all
over the floor. She is so full of herself. We are enjoying her immensely
although I am not sure that Ceilidh our older dalmatian will agree with
that statement. Ceilidh suffers from some arthritis and when Bridie wants
to play Ceilidh just can't move around fast enough to be a good playmate.
They do get along well though and I am sure they are good for each other.
I think that we told you that Gael has three cage birds - an African
Grey (Sasha), a cockatoo (Peaches), and a conure (Rojo). Sasha, the African
Grey talks pretty much and when Bridie runs into the bird room - mostly
to steal nuts they have thrown on the floor
- Sasha yells "Whoa!" or "Hey!". Sasha's yelling
doesn't stop Bridie from pilfering the nuts though and the most she has
ever done is turned to look into the cage at Sasha. Sasha has not learned
to call Bridie's name yet but she will - she does call Ceilidh often
- and I'm sure when Bridie hears the Sasha calling her name it will be
funny!
Bridie will be going to the vet either this coming week or the next but
she is in great health and very much full of energy. Again, thank you
both very much for allowing Bridie to come live with us. I hope that
you don't get too snowed in as it looks like we are heading for big snow
event the middle of the coming week. I will write more later.
Tom
Thu, 20 Jan 2011
Hi Darla and Danny,
Just a note to update you on
the "adventures
of Bridie"!!
She is doing great!! Her house training is going very
well - she has had very, very few accidents in the house. She follows
me when I walk down the drive to the mailbox.
Ceilidh the older dog goes
along as well. It is a roundtrip hike of about 50 yards and Bridie runs
most of the way.
She has figured out how to negotiate the steps that
lead to the garage - even though the risers are higher than
she is. Very
much fun to watch. She has also figured out the stairs in the house.
They are carpeted so she really pretty much flies up the stairs. She
has not yet figured out the "down" route.
Darla and Danny she is just a great puppy - a great personality and very
smart. Thank you both very much for allowing us to have her here with
us. I hope you guys do not get too snowed in this weekend.
Have a great weekend. Tom

Hi Danny and Darla,
I thought we would start the new year with an upate on Tanzi. She has
adjusted to our family well and is growing fast... it seems like the
food only goes to her legs! We think she is going to be tall like her
daddy. The first few weeks in her new home were packed with lots of
activity. It all started out with a boat ride and swim in the Susquehanna
and then on to Happy Valley to check out her new home. Puppy class
started the next day and lasted for 16 weeks... she did well and loved
agility so much I think we are going to enroll her in a class mid January.
Attachded are some photos over the last five months. As you can see
she is well loved!
Wishing both of you a wonderful new year.

Hi Danny and Darla,
It was a year ago yesterday that we took the drive
to PA to pick up Katy. The best road trip we've ever taken. :)
I think
we were less than a mile from your house when she had us wrapped around
her little paw- lol! She's a great little girl! She's very smart and
learns/trains quickly. As you probably know, we just received 2 feet
of snow.
I've attached some pics of Katy in the snow - she loves it!
We're buying a house soon and she will have a fenced in yard for plenty
of 'run' time. :)
Take care, Tracey and Kevin

Hi Danny & Darla,
Just a note to let you know
that Chloe is doing real well.
She is turning into a beautiful dog
and a she does not have mean bone in her body.
She is a kitchen helper
and an incurable counter surfer.
She is a sweetheart and we love her
with all our hearts.
Heres hoping you have a very Merry Christmas and
a Happy New Year.

Here are some pictures that we wanted to share of Zoey.
We wanted to thank you so much for this great addition to our family
you have given us,
and we could not have asked for a better dog.
Thank
you so much! Have a wonderful Christmas!

Good Morning Danny & Darla
Sorry I haven’t been able to send
any pictures of me and my new puppy Charmony that I got from you guys
a few months ago. Here are a couple pictures I got of her “that
actually came out without her wiggling around” hahaha!
Ok so she
is doing very well and is very happy as you can see she and the kitten
(Toko) next to her are best friends
they play with each other the minute
they wake up and even eat with each other!
It is really cute!!
She is an absolute sweetheart, and all the neighbors know and love her
very much as well.
Thank you so much again for the greatest opportunity
to have such a special friend!!
I will be sending some better pictures later, but
was sure you’d
be curious as to how she is doingJ.
Yours Truly, Abigail & Charmony

Thanks for keeping me in the loop. I hope mom and
puppies are doing well.
I’ll discuss our interests with the family
in the upcoming days.
Please see the attached pictures of Kass. Thought
I would update you. She’s doing great. She has really filled
a nice spot in our family (no pun intended). She loves her toys, insists
on getting a piece of ice each time we approach the refrigerator and
funny enough seems to be very cold natured. I never thought I would
visit the pet store to buy my doggie a sweater but I will be making
that trip this week. She has a great disposition, very loving and very
friendly with the kids. She loves the outdoors and many times we just
leave the backdoor open for her to come and go as she pleases.
Please keep me updated with Puppy pics. Hope you guys are doing well.
Have you done any hunting this season???

Dear Danny & Darla,
Thank You so much for our new beloved family member Meeko (aka...Boobaa).
Meeko has adjusted quite well here with his partner in crime (Bryce),
They are inseparable. Meeko has learned his basic commands such as sit,
stay...... and down and has been house broken from day one (Thanks for
that one) He also has his own personal sofa because I don't allow pets
on our furniture. Meeko is a wonderful Dog and we're so happy to have
him! Thanks again.
PS:? I have a lot of better pics on my camera, these ones are just cell
phone pics.
I'll get the camera pics transfered and send you more.

Hi Danny and Darla,
Just wanted to write and check in with you about
Ember. She just turned one in October and she has grown to be such a
wonderful dog. She is so well behaved and continues to love all things
that involve activity
(playing in the river, on the farm, hiking in the
Adirondacks etc.) For her birthday we had taken her on a 10.6 mile hike.
She was a champ! Our love for her is never ending. Her personality is
so sweet and cuddly! Again, we can't thank you enough for this unconditional
gift. We still hope to give Ember a sister someday in the future! Hope
your holiday are filled with love and joy!

Hi Danny & Darla,
I know it has been awhile, but I wanted
to update you on Whisper. She is such
an amzing dog. No matter where I go in the house she is right behind
me. We did
put up gates to keep her from getting into other rooms when we are not
in there,
but she is an amazing jumper. She clears the gates without even touching
them.
When we first talked about getting a deaf dalmatian I was really
scared, but I
made the best decision ever by making her part of the Smiley
family. Whisper is
such a loving dog and a cuddle bug. She likes to sleep with her head
on a
pillow, under the blankets, and between me and my husband Jeremy.
We have her
spoiled so much that sometimes I do not think she knows she is a dog.
She does
really good with her hand signals and loves to play with my moms yellow
lab. She
also loves to stand up at the counter and watch everyone cook. I
can't believe
that she will be 1 years old in just 4 days. I can't wait to celebrate
her first
birthday with her either. I am going to go get some doggie cupcakes and
doggie
ice cream for her and her buddies. Thank you so much for trusting
that we could
give her a good home. She is loved so much. I hope you enjoy the pictures
im
sending and I will try to remember to send you one of her first birthday
on
October 10.
With love from the Smiley Family. :)

Hi Danny and Darla,
I wanted to send you a few photos of Jacoby and Sydnee. It has been a week now,
and he is so lovable.
Still won't sleep through the night, but he is already
scratching at the door to go out. We have had very few accidents. He went to
the vet this past Friday, and passed with flying colors. He weighed in at 10.2
lbs.
Thanks again for him, and we'll keep in touch.

Hello this is Kyle and Krystal,
Here are some pictures of Zoey. She
is doing very well, she does not sleep through the night quite yet
but
she does sleep alot during the day. She is pretty lazy right now, but
it getting along with the other
dogs just fine. Thank you so much for
this wonderful addition to our family.

Hello Danny and Darla,
We have Jacoby. Yahooo! He is beautiful. Such
a good boy. I met with Suzie and Ernie around 4:30 on Saturday.
To see the brothers together was nice but sad. They were sleeping on
top of each other when we were getting
ready to come home. He woke up
every few hours last night, Sydnee talked him back to sleep. And then
he
decided to play rooster and wake up at 4am and stay awake until 6:30.
Did his morning business, came in and played, had his breakfast, and
finished his business outside again. Well done. He met a bunch of people
last
night and was never once nervous or shy. He's a ham. He has the
need to pick up and eat everything he sees
when he's outside. Mulch,
grass, leaves, flower heads, dirt, rocks...It's like I never fed him.
Thank you so much for this puppy. He is so stinkin' adorable.
I will
be in touch with you now and again to give you an update on his take-over
of our home.
Take care
Melissa & Sydnee (& Jacoby)

Hi Danny and Darla-
I love the pictures of the
new puppies. Your dogs are just beautiful. We are just updating with
picture of Maya.
She is the greatest dog ever and we love her so much. She is so much
fun and loving. Her favorite things to do
are eat, sleep, and fetch.
She loves to cuddle up with us on the couch with a blanket while we watch
movies. She really enjoys the water and is an awesome little swimmer.
But she absolutely loves to fetch. She brings back
the ball and sits
and stares until someone throws the ball. We had to buy the chuck-it
so that we could
throw the ball further away, lol.
Thank you so much
for bringing her into our family.

Dear Danny and Darla,
The time has come to let you see pictures of what
handsome Kiefer's boy looks like! He is of show quality. He is easy-going,
loves everyone he meets, and trots proudly in the yard. He has the perfect
head, scissors bite,
full eye trim, dark brown eyes, perfect hearing,
perfect spotting, perfect color on nose leather. What more
could I ask
for! He will start puppy kindergarten classes at 12 weeks after being
fully immunized, and then
some practice dog shows! Your sire, Kiefer, really produces nice progeny!
It was nice that you sent
me more pics of Kiefer awhile back when I asked
for them, and I was very happy at the professionalism of the people I
got the pup from. They gave me AKC papers on demand, and a full report
from the vet of his health and immunizations. Here are a couple pics
of Kiefer's little guy!
Sincerely, Steph Kutsch
Hi Danny & Darla,
Hope you and all the puppies are doing well. It's been awhile
since we sent any photo's of Lacey
so I thought I'd forward some to you.
Lacey is doing great! She's such a good, sweet dog. We love
her immensely.
She got a lot bigger than I thought she would. She's
pretty tall and weighs 55 1/2 lbs.! She's very healthy
and
happy. We're
so thankful to have found you guys and that Lacey became a part of our
family.
Best wishes,

Hi Darla and Danny,
wow what a big beautiful boy with perfect body proportions. I can't wait
for my puppy sired by him. He looks like my big Dal boy I adopted back
in 1992. He was 26 inches at the withers! He was a gentle monster. I've
adopted retired show dog dalamtians and now i'm ready for a puppy. I've
become so disillusioned from these show off breeders that show. I ask them
politely for a show quality dal but If I'm not a handler or gonna show the dog
for sure under contrast rules they wont give me a dog! I've even offered
extra monely in addition to what they wanted! I figure, I just
want an AKC nice looking Dal and Boneskennel was very nice to me, and
decided to buy from Janine.
I'm so glad Kiefer sired! Your Kinser is also a big beautiful boy! I
love your web-site so much!!! Good job with it! I loved ;looking
at all the pics of your dogs and kids. Your dogs look spoiled! he
he! lovely!
Thanks!

Afternoon Danny and Darla,
Sprinkles here. I am not really
typing this I am
just trying to bite the key board cause it makes a funny noise when you
push
on them little buttons, I think they call the keys or some thing like
that.
I just wanted to write to you to tell ya I am doing great, I get into
trouble some times but I am still a little puppy, well not so little
any
more. I had my six months check up and boy I am gaining weight, I weigh
47
pounds now, but I can still run and chase my ball, untill my dad and
mom and
tired, but I want to keep going. I also found out when I was at the doctors
that I had a spot on my eye, that Mom and dad were all worried about,
but it
turns out that it is a blue spot and the doctor said I might end up with
a
blue eye, now how cool is that. I hope all is well with you and my dalmatian
family, but I have to run now cause it is my diner time and I am hungry
just
like always, until next time,
Ron & Pat Buskirk and yes me too, Sprinkles
PS: Here is a picture of me getting a sun tan in the sun room.

Hi Danny and Darla, Just wanted to stop by and say Hi. ZuZu is doing
great. She has a new sister named Chloe.
She is a White German Shepherd,
same as our 2 year old Callie. ZuZu is going to think she is one! We
went to Westminster this year and I have to say, all the Dalmatians competing
were not as pretty as a Double D Dalmatian.
I was looking at your photo
gallery #2. I saw that you had ZuZu in it and it meant so much to me.
When we came
there we could tell how special she was to you guys. I cannot
thank you enough for her. She sleeps in my bed and I must tell her I
love her about 30 times a day. Today, she's a year and a half. She's
so young but I feel like she has been with us forever. My grandfather
passed away in March and ZuZu has helped me so much.
She's just the best
dog I have ever had. If you're upset she knows exactly what to do to
cheer you up.
Anyway, I am rambling. I just wanted to say Hi, give you
an update, and hope all is well.
Thank you so much, Suzanne Innamorato

Hello,
Just wanted to send some new pics. Katy is getting big! She had
her first day at the beach last week and loved it!
She didn't pay much attention to the ocean, but loved running around
in the sand and picking up shells.
She's been teething. Her big brother
Chance has been licking her gums. Its sweet but kind of gross at the
same time - lol! As you can see from the first picture, they love taking
over our couch. Chance even lets
her steal bones from him - not chewies
or cookies though - just bones. He was getting a litte tubby before
Katy
came along and now he's nice and trim from all the exercise.

Danny and Darla,
Siren is now just over 9 months (DOB 06/13/09) old
and doing wonderful. She has completed Obedience I
and begins Obedience
II in two weeks. When she completes her Obedience II,
she will be testing
for her AKC Canine Good Citizen. The instructors are very pleased with
her calm and gentle nature.
They see her being the first Dalmatian in
our area as a Therapy Dog.
On the flip side... she loves tearing up her toys... She just spent
a full day at the veterinarian for a partial bowel obstruction. The Barium
treatment worked just fine. The object ended up being a devoured tennis
ball.
Now she has a basketball to play with...
Speaking of ball games... Siren is tired of this March Madness and is
ready for the REAL ball games to begin.
See the attached photo's.
Hope all is going well for you and your family.
Thanks again for our incredible Dalmatian.
Anthony, Debbie, and Siren...

Hi Danny & Darla,
Just an update on Chloe Ray, she is doing well growing into a beautiful
dog..
She is a little head strong and thinks everything has to be her
way.
We couldn't be any happier with her, she's just a sweetheart.
The woman that decided not to take Chloe missed out on a very nice
best friend
and that was lucky for us because, she is a perfect fit
for my wife and I.

Morning Danny and Darla..
Just thought you might like to see how big
Sprinkles is getting, she is growing like a weed. Her new thing now is
every morning around six thirty she looks out the front window for the
grand daughter and even does it on the weekends when she does not come
and then she runs around the house trying to find her. I don't know who
wears who out cause when the grand daughter goes home about noon Sprinkles
runs to the bed room, jumps
up on the bed and you don't hear another
thing out of her till time for her to have diner.
Ron, Patty and Sprinkles too.

Hey.. This is Miranda
and about a year ago my family bought one of your
dalmations.. Slider O' Shea..
He's now turned one and I remember last
Valentine's Day was the first time we ever saw Slider..
Thank You so
much for such a wonderful puppy!
Slider is happy, healthy, and gives
our family alot of laughs, fun times, and memories..
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Danny and Darla
..Just to let you know Sprinkles is doing great.
Her
newest thing that she learned by herself is when she wants to go out
or eat,
she sits in front of you and holds up her paw. Have no idea how she learned
this. She does sit, sit up and when you say time for bed, she runs to
the
bedroom and is up o...n the bed and under the covers before you even
get
there. I just put up a video of her from this past Sunday playing in
the
snow or maybe I should say running and hopping in it.
Ron, Patty and Sprinkles too.

Dear Danny and Darla,
Thought I would share a few more pictures. Bailey is such a sweetheart
- very affectionate and funny. Molly and Bailey have adjusted very well
to each other. Right now they are sleeping together in their doggy bed.
You can see from the first picture why Rosemary calls him Bunny. Sometimes
when his ears are flapping he looks like a little rabbit.
Thanks again, Jerry and Rosemary

I wanted to send an updated picture of Dottie. We brought her home 2
years ago and is a very special dog.
She is quite spoiled and knows everyone
in the neighborhood. I must say she is a very loving and playful dog.
Please see the picture attached.

Hi Dan & Darla,
Katy
is doing well. She eats like a horse and is getting big! She's 22lbs
now. Her and Chance play all the time.
He really takes a beating from her! She jumps up and punches him with
her paws. He's so big that sometimes she bounces off - lol. She's learning
some signs - no, come, and sit. She definitely knows what 'no' means
and she doesn't like it - she lays down with a big 'huff' - lol. She
loves people and makes new friends whenever we go on walks. She's a popular
girl. :)

Hi guys:
Just to let you know that Jake (your Kinser) is
doing well.
He’s
definitely the alpha dog but he seems very intelligent and is learning
his lessons very well.
Our granddaughters can’t get enough of him.
Hope you’re doing well, and thanks for the DVD.
I’ll send
you a DVD of Jake in a few weeks.

Danny and Darla,
Thank you for the Christmas card. I hope that you had
a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year!
You gave us the best
gift this year, Ember. She has brought us such joy to our lives!
We decided to name her Ember Rose Nyx. She is very well mannered and
loves to be close to us.
She loves to cuddle and will kiss you clean.
Everywhere that we go people comment on how beautiful
she is and we owe
that to you. She loves to play with other animals and children. She loves
to run on
Justin's family farm and play by the river shore. She can play
for hours!!! She has learned several tricks
(sit, lay down, shake and
high five.) We had decided not to crate her and she doing amazing,
no
messes and my shoes are still in one piece.
I have sent you several pictures. The first two are from the first day
we brought her home. I happen to do photography on the side so the next
three were taken for our wall. The last three are from a walk that we
took on the farm, this past weekend. Toward the end Ember became tired
so Justin carried her for a little while.
We thank you from the bottom of out hearts for our baby! She is our
world and
we wouldn't have it any other way! We often think of the other one...
did
you ever find a home for her?
With much thanks, Misty and Justin

Dear Danny and Darla,
Bailey is doing very well. Yesterday we had several
accidents but so far today he seems to have gotten the routine down very
well. He gets along well with Molly. He is so cute and affectionate and
showers us with lots of kisses! He is already spoiled and sleeps on the
bed. He doesn't like the crate too much but lucky for him he doesn't
have
to be in in much unless we go out. He is getting better on the leash
too! Here are some cute pictures.
Darla, what kind of shampoo do you use? He smells so good!
Thanks for caring for him so well.

Forrest and is his constant companion as he works from home...

Hello,
How are things going at the Dalmatian Plantation?
Its very cold here
in Punxsutawney, PA. I just took some pictures of Nia and decided to
send them to you.
She loves playing out in the snow. Her favorite thing
is when you throw
one of her toys into a pile of snow and she has to
dig to find it. We have also discovered that she is a jumper..
I dont
think I have ever seen a dog jump so high in my life! We get so many
compliments on here. especially her
BLUE eye..people just love her! She
is our little cuddle bug! We love her very much!
Hope all is well,

Danny and Darla, Hope your Christmas was full of joy and happiness.
Just to give you an update, Siren has graduated
from "Puppy Kindergarden" and
is scheduled for Obedience
1 in January. Her instructors were very impressed
with her skills. They are amazed with her temperament...
calm and very
submissive. They want her to work towards her Good Citizenship this summer.
I have attached a couple photos for you... she loves to hide bones in
the yard and wasn't going
to give up finding the bone today... even though
the snow was coming down at 1 inch per hour....
Now that she found it.. lets play in the snow...
We will keep in touch... love the commercial and calendar...
thanks..
all three of us wish you both a safe and happy New Year.

Hi.
Hope everyone is doing OK. Thanks for the card. We
tried to watch the dvd but couldn't do it.
I sent it to my sisters to
see if they could watch it on their computer or dvd player. Otis sounds
like a smart dog
and Darla sounds like a good trainer. Personally though,
I doubt there is any dalmatian in the world that is as smart and pretty
as Deuce. We had her spayed in September and then 3 weeks later she fractured
the growth plate in
her paw. She is a crazy girl. She plays with her
friend Hola from next door every day and we go for walks also. She
put
on a couple of pounds extra because she hasn't been able to exercise
since her foot, but she's finally almost good as new.
She is the hit
of my vets office. One girl said she hoped Deuce never got better so
she could see her all the time.
I will always hold you two dear to my
heart cause you're the reason I have my Deuce.
I could never thank you
enough. She's wonderful.
Larry made these urns for my first girls that I lost last winter.
My
vet suggested he make more to offer for sale. I started selling them
on ebay and he can't keep up.
He retired but it's turned into a full
time job almost. I wouldn't have been able to deal with any of this very
well
had it not been for Deuce. She sure brightened up my life.
Debbie

Darla & Danny,
I just thought you might like seeing some pictures of Whisper.
There
is a picture where she was helping me studying for my math exam, which
is really cute. Also she loves to sleep under the christmas tree. Whisper
is doing great, she has learned what "NO" means by taping
her nose with my hand or sometimes if I point at her she sorta knows
she is doing something that is not good, and she is doing okay with
potty training. She has also picked up on come, which is getting in
her view and opening and closing of the hand palm side up. When we
teach her more I will update you. I will send you more pictures in
the future.

Hi Danny and Darla,
Chase did very well on the ride home
and he had a really good first night at his new home.
He and Bella are getting along great. He keeps Bella going, but she definitely
shows him who is boss.
It was really funny when he was under Bella looking
for a drink to suckle from her.
I attached some pics for you. I really
love the tug of war one.
Thanks for everything and keep in touch, Lori

Greetings!
Without a doubt...Lincoln is the greatest! He is nothing
but joy, happiness and adventure.
As you know he was perfect when we first
saw him and that has not changed.
Being a believer that a dog's temperament, personality,
health and intelligence
comes in great part from exceptional breeding
I know how fortunate we were to have found the Double D.
Lincoln is great
in large measure because you know what it takes to make a great Dalmatian.
You guys are the best!
Lincoln is living large in Baltimore and the neighborhood kids and dogs
are loving him.
We just feel lucky to get to share him with everyone.
Best wishes to you and the extended spotted family at
the Double D!
Thanks so very much for bring Lincoln into our lives.

Danny and Darla,
I am truly sorry for the lack of pictures... SO I am attaching Sirens
favorite picture.
She is doing great and is presently in Puppy kindergarden. Her tracking
skills are coming out and being noticed by the instructors... So keeping
my fingers crossed, she will be in search and rescue training within
two years...
Thank you soooo much for allowing us to get a puppy. I market your dalmatians
every day.. especially when we go to the canine park.. where she plays
with a Doberman pincher (cajin) and a Newfoundland (Kuma). She is soooo
funny picking on bigger dogs. She has become the social butterfly at
the park...
I will send more photos in the near future.
Thanks again Tony, Debbie, and Siren... :)
Hi Danny & Darla,
Thought I'd send you some more recent pic's of Lacey.
She
graduated from her 2nd obedience class in Sept. You can see on the picture,
she wasn't thrilled with the graduation cap
Hope you and all
your babies are doing well.
How's Kimberly
Hope she's growing and getting stronger. Any new litters
on the way?
Lacey is doing great. I think I'm going to get
her "therapy" certified
after she turns a year old.
She is so good with people.
We took her to
the nursing home a couple of weeks ago to visit my Aunt.
She loved everyone
and everyone loved her.
Take care and keep in touch when you have time.
Lynn, Dan & Lacey
Hey Danny!
we found out what she was allergic to!
PLUSH DUCK TOYS! from Walmart.. she was eating the fuzz inside
or eating
the plush material itself... then breaking out
sorry for the concern. she is perfect!! She is my best friend, and to
the family of course.
she plays Frisbee like a champ! thats her favorite game!
It used to be fetch untill i got a frisbee.. she loves it!
Im glad we got her before the baby was born,
we had time to form a good bond with her. As well as a good exercise habits.
Lucy LOVES THE BABY and the baby LOVES Lucy!
What a Great Dog
Hello Danny and Darla,
we are sending you some recent pics of Maya.
She is a wonderful dog.
We love her so much and enjoy having her as part
of our family.
Thank you very much. Also we were thinking of getting
a playmate for her.
She does really good with other dogs. Are you going
to have any puppies available anytime soon.
I went to your website and
saw some born on June 21.
We were wondering if any of those puppies were
still available.
Thanks again. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Danny & Darla,
Just a quick note to update you on Chloe Ray,
again thank-you for allowing
us to adopt Chloe.. She is a real sweetheart and we love her very much.
She's almost potty trained and growing like a weed about 20 # as of her
last vet visit.
Chloe and our male dal, Ray are ajusting fairly well
with each other.
She walks on the treadmill every day and is doing it
without much of a treat.
We will keep you updated now and then on how

Hi Danny and Darla,
It's me Kiana. Remember the Stuart's who adopted me? They've
been meaning to email you some new pictures and they are finally getting
around to it. So here I am, I'm 25 pounds now and growning more
everyday. I am so spoiled...I get to sleep on a waterbed every night. I
get to go to a puppy party at my vet every other week, this is helping
me socialize with the other puppies and the other people who are there. I
usually hide in the corner until it's treat time and then I come out. It's
okay though because I am a people puppy....everyone who meets me loves
me :) Every chance my dad, Don, gets he takes me along with him
to the fire house or other fire company functions. I've been to
the vet for an emergency visit one time. I was running
around like a crazy dog and hurt my shoulder. It's okay now
because they took good care of me. I just needed some anti-inflammatory
medicine for a couple of days. It didn't stop me though, I
still run around crazy. Attached are a couple of pictures
of me. I'll have to send them one at a time otherwise the
computer freezes up.
Give my mom and dad a big hug and kiss from
me.
Love, Kiana and of course "The Stuart's"
You can really see how long I'm getting in this
picture.
As you can see, I'm a very spoiled puppy :)
Dear Danny and Darla,
I wanted to check in and share some pictures of Molly (Kaitlyn and Keifer
- green collar) at home with us. She is now
12 weeks old and growing by
leaps and bounds. She is 19 pounds now and has almost
doubled
in weight since we picked her up.
We promise not to dress her up but we couldn't resist the Dolphins jersey
that was on sale.
I threw that picture in for a fellow Dolphins
fan.
The picture in front of the wildflowers was taken just today.
Say hello to the gang. How is Kimberly doing?
Rosemary and Jerry Molinari
Hey Danny!
Sorry it has taken so long to respond to your email, things have been
very busy and I don't find much time to sit at the computer but now
that the boys are in school, I have much more free time. Rowan is doing
great- we couldn't ask for a better puppy. She loves being with us
and has no desire to run or leave our back yard when we let her out. Rowan
is in puppy kindergarten and we have gotten alot of good tools to work
with her. She sits and stays. When we feed her we make her wait until
she is told to eat. She is very smart and is by far the most active
puppy in the class! After this we start obedience class so I know we
are on the right track. I can't believe how big she has gotten and
how beautiful she is. Thankyou for all of your help with getting her
to us.
Katie
Hi Danny & Darla,
I've been trying to send you guys a message for
a month or more, but just don't seem to get the time to do it at home. So, I'm sending
you one from work. Here's some pic's of Lacey while we were on
vacation at Ocean City, MD in July. The beach pic's are at Assateague
where they allow dogs on the beach which was very cool. She was
a little afraid of the waves, but loved the people, of course. We
were, and are so proud of her. She's a wonderful little girl. She's
in her second obedience class and doing very well.
How are you guys? Did you survive the 3 litters of puppies? Are
they all in new homes? People are always asking us where we got
Lacey because her personality and her looks are so wonderful. We
give you and your dogs all the credit and recommend everyone to you.
Let us know how you're doing when you have a chance.
Have a great evening!
Lynn, Dan & Lacey :)
Hi Danny and Darla,
We just want you to know how well Kasey has adjusted into our household!
She

all nite, it just a sweetie pie!
Thanks so much for your hospitality. We are definately very happy
with her.

Hi Danny and Darla, ZuZu is doing amazing. She is very tiny but we love
every ounce of her. She thinks she is a White German Shepherd. She is
shy with strangers and other dogs she doesn't know so she is attending
training classes to help with her socialization. She is such a great
dog and we wanted to thank you again for her. I attached a picture of
her with her parents pictures. People were wondering what her parents
looked like so we put this picture together.
Hope you are having a good summer.
Thank you, Suzanne Innamorato
Good afternoon Danny and Darla,
We just wanted to take a moment and thank you for Oliver!
He is doing wonderful. He is now on his second full day at work. He works
for a few hours then naps for a few hours. He is getting along well with
the other dogs at the log yard. He is still leary of our cats, except
Maxwell who thinks he is a reincarnation of his best friend Milo. So
far he sleeps from 10:30pm to 3:00am. We take him out and 5 min later
he is fast asleep till 5:30 am. and its time to start the day.
Take care, Jeff, Jenn, and Oliver
Hi Danny & Darla..............My daughter and I had
a very nice trip back to NY. 'Chloe Ray' slept most of the way back.
You are both very nice people and we enjoyed meeting both of you. Your
facility is immaculate and I can tell that you have a great love for
your dalmatians and I enjoyed meeting all of them. This is the best experience
I have ever had with any dog breeder and I would highly recommend you
to anyone that loves Dals and was looking for a puppy. Our dog Ray is
getting used to Chloe and kinda watching over her. I am sure that Chloe
wll enrich our lives more with each passing day. Thank-you very much
for allowing us to adopt this little girl......................
I will
send pictures as Chloe grows and adapts to her new family...................................
Flossie & Al

Darla and Danny,
We are so glad that we found you. You have been wonderful to work with.
Everytime I had a question, you were quick to answer it. You definitely
love your dalmatians...every single one of them. Kiana has brought so
much joy to our family, we love her so much and we are having a ball
with her. She has the cutiest little personality.
Thank you.

As
you can see...Kate is loving her. Kiana is getting her share of
attention.
Kiana all pooped out from a busy day playing with
the girls. And yes that's a dress she's wearing....can you
tell she lives with a house full of girls. 7/28/09
HI Folks, Are you ready for this? We made it home by 9:30 pm that night.
My daughter came over to see Millie and stayed until 10:30. I took Millie
out into the outside Pen where she did her duties (surprised) and then
took her to our bedroom where we have a crate thta she sleeps in. She
instantly started crying and after 15 minutes of trying to quiet her
down, I slapped the crate with my shoe and she stopped. She laid down
and went to sleep and didn't wake up until 5:30 am. I took her out to
theoutside pen where she did her duties and I brought her back in where
she played with Maggie. After an hour I sent Maggie back upstairs to
bed with Joan and I laid on the floor with Millie. In 5 minutes she went
to sleep and we both slept for 2 and a half hours more. This routine
has been repeated every night. During the daytime, she has had a few
accidents but it is because we missed the signs.
When she eats or naps, she is put outside in the pen right away where
she pees and poops each time. I think she will be easy to house train.
Her and maggie play all day and maggie babies her a lot. She allows her
to drink her water and she shares her treats with her. Sometimes they
get rough and Maggie gets carried away. I have to stop them but they
have no problem with it and are adjusting much better and quicker than
I expected. We love her as much as Maggie and I need to make sure I give
Maggie equal time.
I wish you could see them play. Its a riot. Maggie mothers her a lot
They both go outside several times a day and play out there. Millie will
do her duties and she returns to the back door right away to be let in.
Whenever she comes in she goes to Maggies mat and lies down for a nap.
I will send pictures in a few weeks.
Thanks for everything. You folks are fantastic.
Lorne, Joan, Maggie and Millie
Here is an updated pic of Stan with his mom's gear.
Can't

He is the best dog we have ever had, a true loyal companion and a complete
joy.
We get compliments on his behavior and overall demeanor everywhere
we take him.

Hello Danny and Darla,
ZuZu is doing great. We attached
a picture of her.
She is getting so big. Her and Callie are inseparable.
It is so great to see the strong bond they have with each other.
Thank
you so much for bringing her into our lives.
The Innamorato Family
Diamond's first night here was fantastic. I was afraid she would miss
the warm bodies of her brothers and sisters.
But she slept very well through the night. Waking up once to go outside
in the middle of the night. I also heard her in bed attacking the stuff
bear.
She has made no mistakes as of yet in the house. We just time her after
she eats and sleeps, and believe this or not she has even gone to the
sliding glass door to let us know she had to go. I was amazed. I just
try to stay in tune of her actions and we have been praising her very
well for her behavior.
My husband is brushing up on his dog behavior training videos. (He is
so cute, he doesn't want to make any mistakes raising her.)
Diamond spent a good part of her day running with the children outside
in-between naps. She met the neighbors dog. We thought it would be a
good idea to let them meet and be friends, since the neighbors dog comes
down every day for a treat from us. She is a good little friendly dog.
Diamond loved her.
I called the vet to make an appt. for Diamond and they said to bring
her in on Monday to introduce her to the staff and to establish a relationship
with the Doctor. They are very nice there at Jarrettsville Veterinary
Center.
I received your pictures today. Boy do those pictures show her true
personality (little stinker). She is a very special little girl and we
are truly Blessed to have her.
I want to thank you very much for everything you have done for us. I
will continue to update you on Diamond.
You will have to let us know how your little boy is doing after his
Bayer testing. I'll be praying hard for him.
Thank you and God Bless, Carolyn, Daniels, Rachel,
Jacob, & Diamond
Ehm
Home safe and sound :) I did sleep most of the ride, and then didn't even
want to wake up. He is already such a pleasure and easy to work with.
The leash was no big thing, didn't seem to care about it. We have created
a puppy page for him on Facebook, and will try to send you the link.
I will send photos of Stanley on the firetrucks! (attached is one of
him watching Hockey :) Thanks sO much!

Danny and Darla,
I want to thank you very much for the time you have spent with us and
all the time you have spent raising Diamond.
Diamond is a beautiful Dalmatian. You have socialized her very well.
She is very alert and inquisitive. Diamond enjoys playing with the children.
She is such a dear to have.
Diamond's ride home went well. She slept most of the way and snuggled
the rest of the way home.
Hi Danny and Darla, We just wanted to say we made it home great. Slider
slept most of the way, and did pretty good when he got to the house.
The cats still arent to sure of him although they come and check him
out when he is sleeping.
Thank you so much for allowing us to adopt Slider, we love him so much
and he is so much apart of our family already.
Thanks again. Enjoy the pics
Hi Danny and Darla..
I just wanted to send you some updated pictures of Nia. She is growing
like crazy and is very active.
She loves to play outside and loves our
morning and evening walks to the barn to feed. She now knows how to sit,
shake, sit pretty, lay and we are now working on STAY. She was doing
very well with house training and then this past week she has seemed
to relapse and has been having a lot of accidents, we are not sure why
but we are working on getting her back to normal. She is now best friends
with my little cousin, Maddox, he is one and when he comes over she gets
so excited to see him and he loves her. We also made a trip to the
Maryland line to visit
a friend of mine who has two Papillions and she
made best friends with them although at first she was very
afraid of
them. She is very smart and everyone just loves her! Thank
you so much again!

Dear
Danny & Darla, its Danny from New York and we just wanted to drop
in and say thank you both so much. You've made my dream come true. Ever
since I was 4 years old watching 101 dalmatians I've wanted 1. But my
asthma and allergies to dogs wouldn't let me. Some miracle they're just
gone and I've never been better around dogs. Casper's doing great. We
all love him so much and im pretty sure he loves us too. Well here are
some pictures of casper and his first bath @ petsmart. Oh yea we're
doing the training classes too. He's already learned how to sit. He's a
great very smart dog and we thank you for him. Gold bless and we hope
you have a great year. Sincerely Danny, melba, and Luis.
Hello
Danny and Darla,
I just wanted to let you know that little Nia is doing great. She is almost
completely house trained. She cries almost everytime she has to go out,
but there is those few times when she forgets and leaves a little present.
She has made best friends with our blue heeler, Zoey. They love to play
outside together! She hasnt made friends with the horses yet. She
starts to shake when she sees them, especially when they move.
It might take her some time to get used to them! She sleeps with me
everynight and now she is my alarm clock I dont even need to set mine because
she gets me up between 6:30 and 7 every morning. My family absolutely loves
her. She went to christmas with us at my aunts on christmas eve and she
loved the little kids. She slept extremely well that night because she
was so tired out! Everyone thinks she is the most beautiful thing
alive, they all just love her to death. Thank you so much for giving me
the opportunity to bring her into our lives it has been a blessing!
Thank you so much!
Eden McDivitt
P.S. I attached some pictures for you to look at!
Darla
and Danny,
ZuZu is doing great! We got home at around 6pm last night. Callie,
Riley, Bailey, and ZuZu had a breif smelling session then warmed up to
each other right away. Callie has seemed to take the role of a mother
figure to her. She was crying when ZuZu wasn't near here. Everything
seems to be going great. We are taking her to the Vet on Monday to
get her shot and check up. We attached a picture of ZuZu and one
one of her and Callie. We will keep you updated.
Thank you for everything!
The Innamorato Family
P.S.- it seems as if she developed spots overnight!
Danny & Darla,
"Piper" is doing great!! She slept almost the entire ride home. We'll
keep you posted on her. She is beautiful with a fantastic personality:)
We love her already!!
Tom, Karen & Hayden Malloy
Danny & Darla, it was great to meet you and all the
dals. I have to say that a big weight was lifted off my shoulders when
I saw your beautiful place and your love and dedication to your dogs.
You both are so great and I can truly see the love you have for them
and the great care they receive.
Thanks so much for inviting us. Did the family with first choice pick
today? I have been showing my friends and family pics of Ace and wanted
to make sure that he was still mine..
Thanks again
Kathy & Mike Reynolds
Dear Danny & Darla,
Thank you so very much for allowing us
to come to your beautiful home and pick our puppy. Robert and Calison
talked about the puppies the whole way home. Your home is absolutely
gorgeous and the care and love you give to your dalmatians is heart
warming. You have my word that Mia will be taken care of as well as
we take care of our children and spoiled just as much. Today was the
happiest I have seen Robert in a year. He has a picture of Mia on our
computer as a screen saver. We can't wait to have a new member in our
family. Thank you both so very much. Sincerely,
Erin

Dear Danny and Darla,
We hope you and your family had a wonderful
Easter! We enjoyed
ours. Lucy is growing up quickly. We are sorry it took
us so long to finally send you some pictures, but time seems to be
flying by!
We want to thank you again for all your help
getting her. We
love her more than words can say! She has brought unending
joy and laughter into our lives, and we appreciate her so much. She
has a wonderful temperament and has been a pleasure to train. She
is very bright and learns everything quickly. We couldn't be
happier with our puppy.
Let me know if you need any recommendations, etc. We would be more
than happy to give one.
Sincerely,
Albert, Bridgette & Lucy
Hello Danny and Darla,
Deborah spoke with Darla this morning so I'll
keep this short. Thank You so much for this Awesome puppy, he is
so much fun to have around and our kids love him to death. he is
verrrry spoiled and happy and has adapted to his new family like
he was born here. He is in puppy preschool and on his way to being
a well minded dog. alot of work but it is very rewarding every
time he learns something new. he has made friends with our neighbors
older labrador and a friends labrapoodle, he's very quick to get
along with other dogs when we take walks as well.
Anyhow that's about it, here are some photos of Drake and the kids
at the park and in his yard.
Again Thank You,
John Moore

awoke to find Santa granted his wish of a Dalmatian puppy named
Miller!!! Hope you enjoy the pictures.
Hi Danny and Darla,
Try these pictures, hopefully these come through O.K. if not i'll
try
again just let me know. He's doing great, kids are having a ball
with him. He
is already spoiled, he sleeps in bed with me and my wife and the
only time he
gets up is when he has to go out. House breaking doesn't seem like
it's going
to bad to do. hope all is well there.

Bailey is doing great.. She weighed 14.2 at
her 9 week check up. They absolutely love her at the
vet.. She knows how to sit, give you her paw and when she
is running back to the house after doing her business she love
to do somersaults. She is a riot.. I believe Peter is her
best friend, he is the little guy. They play all day and when we
bring Peter to bed Bailey hops up on Peters bed and listens to
us read and she falls asleep with him for a little bit. I can't
express how happy we are to have Bailey with us she goes everywhere
with me, she loves the car, she follows me everywhere. She has
3 dog friends already - 1 chocolate lab and 2 golden labs. The
chocolate lab comes over almost everyday to see her. I believe
I have brought you up to date on our spoiled little pup. Bailey
sends lots of wet kisses to both of you and let her mommy
know she is doing just awesome!
Thanks again,
Jackie & Steve
Danny and Darla,Attached are some pictures
of Halle. She has fit right into our family. We love
her so much and we get so many compliments on how cute she is. Thank
you so much for letting her be a part of our family.Sue Barrett
I have attached a picture of Maddie and our son Brandon taken on 7/21. Maddie is really
getting big, at her last Vet appointment, she
weighed in at 21 pounds. She is very
independent and really enjoys the outdoors. I am starting to get her ready to be
my
running partner in the fall, so far she loves to jog short distances with me.
We love
having her as part of our family! We hope all is
well with the other dogs.

Thank you so much for all you did for my family in
bringing little "Maggie" into our lives. She is awesome.
I really can't describe how much she has touched all our lives. She
has had 2 trips to the Vet for routine shots and all is well. She
is growing like a weed and weighed 27 pounds on her 3 1/2 month visit.
She took right to her new environment, is crate trained, sleeps all
night and gets up with the alarm clock like the rest of us. I have
done nothing but talk about the Dalmatian Plantation since we got
her. You have a beautiful home and an equally beautiful
kennel for the dogs. I have to give you folks the highest of kudos
when it comes to raising pups and maintaining a beautiful kennel.
