Hi Glen,



I just thought you might enjoy a report from home! Well, you sure sent home two sweet, well behaved pups with us! They are so incredible, they are calm, well mannered & VERY eager to please! That is NOT to say that they haven't been testing us a bit, because they have! We are on them though & we are trying hard to do everything as you taught us! We do NOT give in to them! We bought some training sticks (similar to yours) and we have one new choke chain (better quality - it was Dudley's), now we just have to find another one! We have trained with them each day (e-collars on) for about 20-30 minutes each! We also do some training on our walks (leash on & with e-collars on), which, the walks by the way, have been soooooooo much nicer.......no more pulling! We passed right by two barking, snarling dogs on our walk last night & brought them in to us, for a "safe zone" heel! I was a little nervous, as this woman's dogs were REALLY pulling hard to get to Ella & Brinkley! The woman had to pull her dogs up onto the grass & hold on with all her might (she even sat down & dug her hells in the grass - yikes)! Ella & Brinkley just "pranced" past these two snarly dogs like they weren't even there! They glanced at them, but did not make a move, no pulling, posturing, no lip curls....NOTHING!!! We heard the lady say to her dogs, "why can't you be like that?" Brad & I were so proud of them! Way to go Ella & Brinkley!!! Glen, you should be so proud of this, you are awesome!



They are going to their new "place" with no problems. That command alone is pure "genius!" I can cook without tripping on them now, yay for me! They are completely gentle with the girl's too, much different then before they came to you! All in all, it is going quite well. I am sure we will have our moments & I KNOW for sure, we will have some questions for you! So far though, we are so, so pleased! Sending Ella & Brinkley to you was the VERY best decision we have ever made in regards to having pets! Thank you so much Glen, what a pleasure it has been getting to know you & watching you work with all your dogs! I will be in touch, as we will likely need some help with some things, as we go along!



By the way, it took them all of maybe five minutes to get re-acquainted with their home, isn't that incredible, after being away for three months!



Take care & thank you, thank you, thank you,

Marnie, Brad,

Kurstyn, Brenna, Vanessa,

Ella & Brinkley Cappis

P.S. We KNOW they miss you (they look for you each morning), I am sure they always will!

Just thought I’d drop you a note with a picture of our wonderful golden retriever “Wilson” that we purchased from you in 2001. He has been (and still is) the best dog and we love him as one of our family. He is so fun and obedient and so affectionate. I teach piano and he loves to welcome and be loved by all of my students and their parents. I’ve attached some of my favorite photos. Thanks so much for maintaining such a great blood line!

Wilson was born June 2001

Sire: Goldwings E Racer

p.s. we may be contacting you in a year or so – we’re moving to an acreage this summer and might be getting Wilson a playmate since he will have so much room to run and chase gophers.
