These are emails I received from families that have gotten puppies from me, these were totally unsolicited.... I will include their emails so that you may contact them personally.

Just wanted to let you know that Hat Trick is doing great. He cried in the car for a little, but then he was fine. He did a little tour of the house when we first got home and already knows his way around. We have been taking him outside to potty and he has only had one accident in the house all day. We use the praise and reward method, every time he goes outside it's like a big party and he gets a treat.

I see what you mean, he sure is fiesty. He really doesn't know how small he is. But then again, that's true about yorkies in general.

Slap Shot is a little confused, but is slowly adapting. We keep reassuring him that we love him just as much as ever and he is not being replaced.

I wanted to tell you, I can't beleive the difference in the transition of both Slap Shot and Hat Trick.

We bought Slap Shot from a Kennel and he was absolutely scared to death from the time we first held him up until 4 or 5 days later. It took him that long to even begin to adjust to us and our home. Every time we held him he just shook with fear. We bought him a pet bed before we picked him up and for the first 4 to 5 days he was home he would not step foot outside that bed. He's fine now, but we were a little worried at first.

Hat Trick on the other hand is totally different. He walked all around investigating every inch of the house and just loved all of us with hugs and kisses. We can see that he has been loved, cared for and socialized so well.

Thanks Again, Karen

It's me Anne. I just wanted to touch base with you. I am at work, my mother left this morning about 7:30 or so. Zeta is doing well, she called from Connecticut telling me that most of the ride home he lay curled under the nape of my mother's neck...I told her I'm reporting her for not having him in a seat belt.

Yesterday he did really well, he only whimpered a bit on the ride to my house. I held him up front away from the "crowd" in the back seat and that helped a lot. When we arrived home he adjusted quickly. I was really surprised that he adjusted so well so fast...he is a little feisty. He kept biting my mom's pants, her socks and nibbling on my daughters toes.

Throughout the day he played napped and ate pretty well. The kids were real gentle with him and let him get adjusted without over stimulating him.

At night he played in my bedroom...it was so cute because he cried and tried to climb on the bed, when I picked him up he flopped himself down and went right to sleep...

My mom bought him a little basket bed with a blue cushion and as soon as we got to the house he jumped right it. He slept in it all night with my mom's shirt that she had on all day and he did not make a peep.

My mom bought him the Eukenueba puppy food and he likes it a lot. He has been eating well and my mom has all the necessary food items, Karo syrup, Nutri-cal...the only thing she still needs to pick up is the cottage cheese. He did eat a little bit of scrambled eggs- mom said she read on line that this is ok...I hope it is because he liked them...

He is a darling little sprout. He has been peeing on the pads but is more challenged positioning "number two"...he found a special spot on my rug that he liked better- but I'm sure he will get better with practice. I have encouraged my mom to buy the training system you have suggested.
