Past Puppies and Testimonies
Hi Diane,
Josephine (Josie) is growing and learning fast, and has a really good character. We all are pleased with her and love her dearly. Josie is doing great, She is completely recovered after that unlucky vaccination. And, YES, they had LEPTO included in the vaccine. I gave the vet all information prior to the vaccination, but she decided to do it anyway. Now, I made the point to the personnel that next time I will do the vaccination only when I see the bottle label indicating no Lepto, and I will not accept any prefilled syringe (as it was previous time). This VET thing is really strange. I have this Pet Hospital taking care of all my kitty ‘s needs for about 14 years and never had any problems. Well…, I’ll be more careful now.Anyway, Josie is such a sweetheart, and is fitting nicely into our family. She is adjusting to her eating/sleeping/playing schedule very well. She has practically no accidents in the house. Often, she comes to the sliding door and lets us know that she needs to go out by touching the glass with her paw. We reward her for this.
Josie is such an eager student. She has already learned several commands “sit”(picture attached), “down”, “up” (picture attached), “watch me”. Right now she is working on “come”(coming back) and “let’s go”(walking on the loose leash). Yes, we are getting ready for the park. Meantime, we spend a lot of time on the backyard (if weather permits) for practicing, and playing. Here I attached the picture of my “Gardener’s little helper”. Oh, just forgot. We are also have a good time in a puppy class at the Petsmart, socializing Josie with other puppies of the same age group.However, Josie is extremely quiet, barks a little bit only onto unfamiliar objects. Well.., we need to teach her a command “speak”, anyway. I knew that poodles are very intelligent breed, but couple of days ago Josie surprised us. We have a china hutch and usually she crawls under it to get the ball. We had one of her toys tied to the rope and put under the hutch. She did not crawl this time, but pulled the rope to get her toy. No one taught her this, she just figured out by herself and now she does this every time. What a smart puppy!!These are the latest news about Josie. Everyone loves her very much. Even our cat, I guess. The kitty just does not want to participate in playtime (she is 21 years old), but watches Josie from upstairs, always comes down to sniffle the crate when Josie sleeps and shows no aggression at all toward puppy. Diane, thank you very much for the wonderful puppy and for your advice and support. I hope we will stay in touch.Sincerely,
Irina

Hi Diane,
Duncan is doing well. We love him dearly and are very glad we got him. He is happy, a little territorial and grumpy at times, but overall a pretty happy camper. He is also very smart. I wash his face (eyes) every night and all i have to do is grab a washcloth and turn on the water and he knows it's time to wash his face. It's really cute.He has quite the personality too. He loves to go for walks, loves to cuddle now and loves this cute little monkey head. It's a tiny head of a monkey and he carries it around our office. Sets it down, and then is happy to see his monkey head when he comes across it again later.So, I guess you can tell, we love him very much. I never knew I could love a dog so much. He really has been a blessing the past year. I've been through some personal challenges and he is always my bright spot.Thank you for Duncan.

I highly recommend Diane and her Poodles to anyone looking for a beautiful and happy Poodle puppy. Diane loves her dogs like they are her children...they receive the best of care and are kept groomed every 6-8 weeks...they always look so nice and pretty. She gives the best care she can give to her babies. They are raised in her house where she can love and play with them on a regular basis...not to mention spoil them too. Her puppies come vet checked, shots , wormed and very well socialized with an adorable puppy clip....if you live local she will groom your puppy, as she does grooming in her home. You can't go wrong with one of her puppies or Poodles as they are all so beautiful. I have seen her when she is so tired she could cry from getting up around the clock to bottle feed if one needs the extra care, that takes love in your heart and determanation to do the best job she can do.
Regards, Linda
Diane,
We had a nice ride home and the little one was quite lively! She is tiny, but really active and does like to be held, which is a good thing. She has already pooped twice and wet once, so things are working pretty good. I think I need to get a little fanny pack to carry her in as I do my chores. I am hoping she has a restful night tonight, but will let you know. Those pictures were too cute. Have you had babies yet?
Thanks,
Cheryl
Diane,
The little one is so adorable and did so well today with the pottie training. She actually took one of Stryker's bones away from him and pulled it into her area and went to work on it-she is so strong and smart. I love how her little tongue is always dangling out of her mouth and those big, brown eyes! Do I need to worry about her catching a cold when I take her outside for her pottie breaks? Yes, you were so right that she is so loving, much more so than Stryker.
Hope all is well,
Cheryl
Diane,
The little one is doing very good and is quite a little go-getter! She has a better appetite than Stryker, which is totally surprising. She is not too interested in her petite bones, but would rather drag Stryker's around. The two are doing quite good together - it did take some time for Stryker to even acknowledge she was there, but now he looks for her when she is taking her nap. She will go in next week for her well baby check and I will know her exact weight-on the bathroom scale she weighs just under 1 pound. She likes to take a bath, but I have not had her clipped yet.
Your new babies are so darling!
Hope your new year is the best! I will let you know what her Doctor says....
Take Care,
Cheryl
Diane,
We had our check up yesterday and the little one did quite well. She had her shots and weighed 1.5. She did need to have the hair in her ears pulled and had a slight infection, so is on medication. She has quite the personality and was a huge hit with the staff at the clinic.
Have a good day,
Cheryl Lonergan
Diane; hi! I've never done this before so let me know if you got their pictures ok? They are a handfull!! But, we love them soooooo much; and they are getting more and more spoiled with every passing day.
Thanks Karen
Hi!!! Your baby (Koki) is doing just fine and we love each other :) She is already spoiled... I had no doubt she would be the dog i dreamed about! The first time i saw her picture i knew she should be mine :) Everybody loves her and wants to pet :) She is popular in Salem now :):):) I made her first shot today but my vet told it is still not safe to go to parks... What do you think??? She loves to run and play!!!
I attached some pics of her...
Take care, and thanks for the cute dog :)

Hi Diane,
I was thinking about you. Eventually I will send you a picture of Misha and I. He is doing fine. He is the sweetest dog. Everyone loves him. At Thanksgiving I was ready to leave the house when my son called and said that everyone wanted me to bring Misha. He is an absolute angel. He has the run of my condo while I am at work. He loves other dogs. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He has gained a little weight. I was just leaving his food out but have now started to feed him twice a day.He is very affectionate.
How are you doing?
Take care. It was so nice to hear from you. Happy New Year!

Hi Diane!
She is a very good girl and her weight now 3 lb and 4 oz. On December 06, when we got her she was less then 2 lb. We are doing potty training now. She is so playful and beautiful girl.
I see you have more poppies. Are they are from same parents? They are looking so beautiful.

Hi Diane!
Andy is doing wonderful! We named him Andy Doodle Dandy, and it fits him perfectly! He and Phoebe, our chihuahua, are best friends and are sleeping next to each other against my hip right now :) We have taken the two of them back to the coast a few times and they LOVED running on the beach together chasing the tides. Andy and my husband cuddle together on the couch during the day, and the kids are in love with him too. As for me, I couldnt be happier! He's a joy to have, perfect for grooming, and a wodnerful addition to our family! Thank you so much for such a great memeber of our family!
