Subject: Blazin Comet


Hello Mrs. Marrs. My son Adam is in Missouri going through team training to be partnered with your Comet. We can't thank you enough to have shared him with Susan Bass, so that he could be partnered with Adam. He's a wonderful little personality and doing a fantastic job of hearing alerting and mobility assistance for Adam. Adam is 19, is about the start his 2nd year of college at Virginia Wesleyan College where we live, and has fallen head over heals for Comet. Adam had a beautiful flat coated retriever service dog for almost 8 years, that we lost suddenly in Jan 2009. He said for a year, he just wasn't ready for that emotional attachment. He finally became ready earlier this year, and we were so fortunate that Susan had Comet, and that they matched up and that the timing worked out for us to travel to Missouri before college starts again next week.
Thank you o much for doing such a wonderful thing for our son.

ps-we've peeked at your webpage, and seen the beautiful puppies you raise-I am certain you are very proud of all of your 'babies'. They are gorgeous!
 

 

 

I just wanted to say hello and thank you so much for our little Pepper.  She was the little black tri runt in the 7/7/09 litter.  She is just precious and has so much personality- very sassy!  Her name fits her perfectly because she definitely has some spice.  =)  We love her so much!  I attached some pictures, and one is with Ruby (my mom’s) and Moses (my sister’s).  Pepper is pretty teeny- she weighs about 16-17 pounds, just like you said she would.  I just can’t get enough of her!  We are having some trouble potty training her, but I think it’s mostly our fault because we are gone all day at work and she just can’t hold it from 7am-6pm like our grown dog can (he is a rescue dog and is about 4 yrs old- I’ve had him about 3 yrs).  And she does not like potty pads!  She can hold it just fine through the night, but I think her little bladder just can’t do it all day.  But overall she has been the perfect addition to our family!  The picture of the guy holding her in picture 176 is my hubby, so that gives you an idea of how easy it is to hold her!  Anyway, I don’t think I’ve ever written you so I thought I should!  Your dogs are just beautiful.  Sometimes, I just get on your website to look at them.  So cute!  I wish I could have ten!

Thanks again!  Take care,Rachel (4/12/2010)

 



My husband and I met you in Tulsa about two months ago to get your red merle with the ingrown toe nail, and I just wanted to give you an update and let you know that he has been wonderful! His name is Moses and he has been a great dog. He is very smart and very sweet. He is still a little shy around other people, but he adores us. This last weekend I took him with me and we ran a 5k charity event and we were the first dog and owner to finish. He also made the trip to Katy for Easter and reunited with his sister, my mom's red tri and they had so much fun. We also went a head and got his toe nail removed so that it wouldn't bother him when we ran. Well anyways I just wanted to let you know that everything has worked out wonderfully and thank you. In about 5 years maybe we will get him a little friend :) Thanks again,

Our beautiful Midnight has gone to live with a lovely young lady in Peculiar, MO who is learning to show him.  Thank you Beth Rice for your professional tutoring.

Mom, Alicia Gatz, says that Sierra and Midi are doing wonderfully together and that Sierra is making quite a show person.  Here are their pictures. (1-21-2010)

 


Hi Karey I just thought that you would like to see a picture of Merlin. He is the red merle that went to North Carolina. I know that you have a lot of puppies but I just thought that maybe you wanted a picture for you book. He is growing so fast. He is such a handsome puppy and so smart. Almost too smart! We just love him to pieces and we are very thankful that he is such a healthy, strong boy. I just wanted to thank you again, as you made the whole process so easy for me. I really appreciated it. Thanks again. Oh yeah his registered name is "My Marine's Mighty Merlin" My husband is a Marine and technically he is his dog but I am the one raising him as my husband is gone until March.  
Thank You Jarred and Leta

Just wanted you to know how our puppy is doing. We named him Zeus. He's such a pistol - full of energy and he took up with our dog so quickly. They are best friends and play constantly. In fact they play so hard that they wear each other out. It's amazing.

Shan-and-Zeus.jpg (58852 bytes)

We haven't let Zeus run with the horses yet because I'm afraid he'll be trampled, but he goes to the barn with us twice a day. He chases the chickens and pesters the cats, but he seems just genuinely happy.

I contacted our photographer and had him come out and get some photos of Zeus and Shannon, who by the way, adores him. He goes with her everywhere. He even rides around on our farm equipment with us. He's such a mess. And she has bathed him three times since she got him on Christmas, so he's getting used to baths...and the dreaded kennel training.

Anyway, I've attached some photos I thought you might enjoy seeing. Everyone wants to know where we got him because he's so beautiful. Shannon has been asked to join the local Obedience Club and get him into agility. She's really excited about that.

Enjoy the photos!

Karey -
We got Butterfly yesterday, and are THRILLED with her. She's much prettier than her picture, and SUCH a personality! She must have been alpha in the litter. She's taken well to our other dogs, and they have taken to her. Ginger, our 6 yr old mini aussie, has pretty much adopted her as her own.I've had her to the barn and introduced her to the horses and feathered critters, and the cats - she has no fear! Even the geese do not intimidate her. She's a spunky little thing, and sure to bring much more joy to our lives.
Thank you again.

so much fun, she has added such joy to our life. She loves to go on Hikes in Lake Tahoe, she loves children especially if she can "herd then up" to keep them safe. She loves all people and other dogs too.
Everyone we meet comments how beautiful she is and wants a dog just like her. I can't imagine a better dog, She is all you said that she was and more. She listens so well and lives to please us. She is truly wonderful.. Thank you and it was a pleasure dealing with you.
When we are ready for another one we will surely give you a call. I cant help but send you several pictures Susan.

Phoenix.jpg (51274 bytes)

Phoenix is doing great.  For the next week until I move in with my sister he's staying in the carport.  I wish I could go ahead and start housetraining him, but we've got so many expensive rugs in my parents house, and he's doing great in there.  Most of the time he waits until I walk him anyway.  He cried the first night, and I of course broke the puppy rules and slept with him in the carport.  Then I spent all of yesterday in there with him, but now he doesn't cry unless he needs excercise.  I put Van in there with him, and as long as Van's there he sleeps fine and then we go walk around and he's tired and sleeps again.  LOL  They're gettin along great.  I haven't introduced him to my parents dogs, but when they see him through the windows and bark at him Van gets all upset and barks back protecting the puppy.  He's so smart too.  He sat on my lap the entire trip back from Memphis.  He slept and whenever he had to potty he would whine and we would stop to walk him.  Bryan taught him how to sit the first day.  I took him to the vet yesterday for his check-up and the vet said that he's doing great.  His eyes are so beautiful.  He learned how to walk Van, since he's already bigger than Van.   :)  He takes the short end of Van's extendee leash, grabs it and makes Van go where he wants.  It's so cute.

My puppy is wonderful, still! I took this picture of her and my new colt this morning, the colt was born yesterday morning, I thought you would like it for your brags page. She is so smart and wonderful with the horses, as you will see!

Good evening Karey,
     I just want to keep you informed about Hunny Bear!!  She's an absolute adorable puppy!!  Loved by all of us very much, including Hunter (daddy like dog).  Doing very well with her potty training, of course she still has accidents, but that's typical for a puppy!!  She can now hop over the gate, which I think is extremely smart of her!!!  We love her so much!!!  She is definitely worth the wait!!  Monday she goes to the vet, because we received the paperwork today.  Her appointment is all set-up.  My parents wanted to keep her when I took her over to there house.  She was sleeping on my dad's feet, keeping his feet warm.  How cute!!  She loves the snow, and we have tons of it here!!  She hates coming inside, so we send Hunter back out for Hunny to follow!!  They follow each other everywhere, and she falls asleep on him every night!!  When we get a computer camera, I will send you a picture of her.  I want to Thank You very much for having to deal with us before we got her.  I know we were a pain.  Again thank you, and she is most certainly loved very much by everyone here!!!  Oh, by the way, the entire ride home from Cleveland,  she sat on my lap the whole way home, and didn't pee on me.  Thank Goodness!! 
                                  Thank You,
The Hinzes

Hi!
We have given your name and website to about 50 people!  Everyone here loves
Blue (of course)!   He is a riot. He is sleeping now, of course, which he likes to do!
Here's a photo . ..

blue.jpg (55419 bytes)

"We named him Blue and he is absolutely the newest joy in our life! He is so precious and we can't imagine not having him in our family. He loves our other aussie Foster and they romp and play together all day long. She just lays on her side and lets him chew at her face and legs while just licking him affectionately. He definitely has spunk for such a little guy and rarely sits still! When he does its usually curling up with

one of our cats on the back of the couch, snuggled up next to him. We started puppy kindergarten with him a couple of weeks ago because I want him to be around as many people and other dogs as possible. He took a little while to learn the sit command but now he sits like a pro! He is about 5.5 pounds but that was a couple of weeks ago so I'm guessing he may be close to 6.  The vet says he's in perfect health and perfectly for his little size. He has another booster appointment this Saturday. Everyone that meets him falls in love with him and they are astounded that there is such a thing as a mini aussie. Thanks again for letting us adopt this little guy and I will forward more pictures soon."
