By the way, the kids decides to change his name. Ethan wanted Iron Man but we settled for Stark....like Tony Stark.  He has been doing well.  He is very quick and loves being outside in the sun. He has not enjoyed late night potty breaks since its been cold. He will need a sweater and some booties.  Stark is slowly learning that we do not peepee in the house. We'll spend 30 minutes out and he comes right in and pees within 2 minutes. I think he must have been only going in the house.

To: kccpr@hotmail.com Hello from Magnus and Skye! Just wanted to update you guys a little on Magnus. He was called Ozzy when I adopted him (brother to little Lita Roux down there) but it didn't take him long to fit into his new name, or his new life. He adores my older dog, Skye. It took her a little to come around, but now you can really tell they love each other. Magnus has taught her how to play, since she's never had another dog to wrestle with, and now they wrestle, play tag, and even play tug-o-war with their toys. It's awesome to see her so active since she's older now. It's amazing what a little dog can do! Magnus gets to go to work (doggy daycare) with me about once or twice a week, and he's made a lot of new friends. His cousin Freyja comes over to play sometimes, too! You can see that he looks totally different now. He's just at 8 months old now and his ears have been sticking up for little over a month. He looks so different! Everyone comments about how unique and handsome he is. He's such a fun addition to the family, I can't imagine life without him around now. Even the cats likes him! - Vickie, Skye, and Magnus   To: kccpr@hotmail.com Subject: Eve Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 02:49:59 +0000 Liz and Bill, I was talking with my sister today (Patti Cashwell) and she told me you all wanted an update on Eve.

We are walking her regularly and are in the process of putting down the underground fencing so she can enjoy being off her leash when we are outside together. She sleeps great at night and is eating good. I think she has grown a couple of inches in height and maybe a few pounds as well. She has torn apart a bed that Patti brought to her to play in and a few soft toys. She gets the hard toys now. She also has lost a couple of teeth that we know of but is doing fine. We notice that she is not a snuggler as of yet but we are working on that too.haha We love her and hope she is as happy with us as we are with her.

She and Lucas are getting along wonderfully! They play well together and fuss and fight and sulk just like brothers and sisters do. It's too funny sometimes. She's sleeping through the night - COMPLETELY SPOILED - in the bed with us. With big bro Lucas at the side of the bed keeping watch. I had to have surgery (got that gallbladder taken out) on the 18th, so I've been at home with her all this week. She's crating fine when we're not here and sometimes takes naps in her crate while we're home. She's a really good girl! Thanks so much once again! I've attached a few pics and a little movie of Siouxie and Lucas playing. He's quite tired from all the running, but she's bright and sassy as always! Thanks Again!

She has grown to be a cute, sweet, obedient (wants to please) joy for this family. You called her Princess, and we re-named her Maggie only to find that she is a Princess. We have named her Princess Maggie.    She is now almost 22 pounds and is still petite. She loves to play tug of war and fetch, is VERY fast and agile, and loves all animals, especially any dog. She is smart and so very cute -- she sleeps with her back legs stretched out. She loves to lick faces (yuck) and loves to play with my boys in the yard. Soon after we adopted her, we had a dusting of snow. The boys took her sledding, which she really enjoyed! This summer, on a walk past a small lake, I discovered her love for water as she literally jumped in without a thought of what 'water' was. She preferred wading in the water until she learned to swim this summer by another dog -- chasing sticks thrown in the water.   We wanted to thank you for the work you do for all the puppies who found themselves in situations like our precious Maggie. We are so happy with our perfect dog -- the best dog in the world, according to my youngest son. She has added so much joy and fun in our lives and we take her everywhere.   Thanks, again, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday and a prosperous New Year.    Cate     Sent:> Wed 11/21/07 10:06 AM Thanks for helping us find our newest member of the family. Bear is terrific. He is settling in so well with the boys. He is a sweet and smart boy and has really taken to training…loves his walks and his yard and of course Ruby Belle (she likes him as long as he doesn’t pounce on her :)  Thank you for the wonderful gift you have given to us!  The care and love you give to puppies and Moms that would not receive it otherwise is a blessing.  You are in our prayers.  Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!  Catherine Subject: Emma Update (formerly known as Lakia) Date: Fri, 9 Nov 2007 14:35:33 -0500 Liz and Bill, I just wanted to let you know that we had a GREAT night with Emma.  She did not have ONE accident in the house or the crate overnight.  She pottied outside and even let me know this morning that she had to go out for a second time.  She went right into the crate at bedtime - which we put the towel in there for her.  I think that was a good thing. Also, we put the crate in the girl's room, so she was with her little people.  She slept thru the night - SHE DID NOT CRY AT ALL.   It was awesome.  So far so good.  I will keep you posted.  Thanks for everything. The Stoots Fri 7/06/07 9:07 AM Hope you are both doing well and your family.  We're doing fine and are especially loving our dog.  Last night Roxy was curled up on my lap and I told David that I never thought I could love an animal this much!  We agree that she's the sweetest dog we've ever known.  April & David   If you have adopted from us we would love to post your puppies picture on our site.
