Sur Benjamin is doing well - he loves everybody he meets canine or human......and vice versa! 

Great to hear, yes we met her on the seawall the other day….and she isn’t the first that asked for your contact info. Benji is great ambassador for you! P&J 

Sir Benjamin is celebrating his first birthday in sunny and warm Palm Springs, California. All is going well and Benji continues to make new friends - both canine and human - every day! Everybody loves him and vice versa.  Best wishes,   Peter and June

Everything is going really well with Sir Benji. Everybody absolutely loves him! We are amazed at how disciplined he is about using the litter box, right from when he first arrived. We don't know how you do this training but kudos to you folks.

Just a note to say how much we have enjoyed and appreciated dealing with you folks all the way through the process of acquiring Benji. We found you after a google search and were attracted by the professionalism of your website and approach.

We have not been disappointed. You have demonstrated professionalism, caring, outstanding communication and attention to detail every step of the way even including his bag of extras that came with him. Congratulations on building such an exemplary business.

We are excited to have Benji with us and look forward to many years of great companionship and good times.

Thank you, Peter and June

Hi Corinne and Mike! Phoebe means bright and she is bright in so many ways. She’s such a bright ray of silliness in our home and she’s so smart (but maybe I’m biased ☺️).  Phoebe still gets her organic kefir in the morning  She also loves organic bananas and apples Ana blueberries. They've been some  of her favourite treats we use for training her. She didn’t take long to settle in. We signed up with the top dog training company here in Calgary, called Dogma. I have a membership that gave me access to so many wonderful videos that have been priceless for helping me to set the best foundation  for Phoebe. They are all about positive  reinforcement. Phoebe has learned so much in such a short while! We started of by introducing her to things like blow rubes and vacuum cleaners in small doses while we gave her bits of banana and apples.   Every day I’m so proud of her. She’s quite content in her gated areas in her own. We had to do a little work with her on that. It took a few days of me sitting near and ignoring her barking and rewarding her when she calmed down. Then one day she just got it and she was happy on her own.  She knows her name and looks you in the eyes when you call it. She knows sit by the hand signal and the verbal cue. She knows down by the hand signal so we are now starting the verbal cue. 

 I like to have her set her up in the salon with me. She’s getting used to people coming is going without making a big deal of it.  We’ve been working on her recall. The other day we were in our friends yard having a play date with a couple Bichon shih tzu that are three years old. And our little Phoebe had about a 90% for stopping to come to me when I called her. I was so thrilled. Phoebe is in kinderpups twice a week to socialize with different puppies of different sizes. It’s run by professional trainers that make sure she gets the proper amount of play time and nap times. And they work in her skills with us. So she is learning to listen in distracting environments.  Eric and I can’t wait till she can sleep in bed with us. This morning I took her out at 6:00am for a pee then brought her to bed knowing that her bladder was empty, and she snoozed and cuddled with us for a couple hours. It was the best! Phoebe loves a good cuddle. She likes to sit in your lap and play with her toys.  She’s such a silly little girl. Always making us laugh. We love our Phoebe!  Thankyou for all the hard work you both out into her to set her off to the right start! I thought you would be happy to hear that we are doing everything to continue with her so that she will be the happiest most well adjusted family member that we can take everywhere with us! Lots of love Arwen and Eric and Phoebe!

First night home and She was really good!! I was super worried on the flight home becuz west jet only allow soft kennels undwe the seats with us. The airport was sold out of soft kennels So she had to fly underneath the plane from Vancouver to Calgary. The flight attendant checked on her before take off and said she was asleep and She was cool as a cucumber when we picked her up in Calgary.  She loves to snuggle and gives kisses on the nose. She’s been eating and drinking really well. She loves to play. She cried a little when she woke up at night.  But she would eat and settle down pretty quickly. She’s very good at settling herself down. I let her cry it out becuz it was more of light complaining than real cries. Then after she quieted down I would check on her and there She would be super chill. She’s a really good girl!!! And she has the most precious face! She loves ear scratches and snuggles!  And she’s really good at using her litter box for her business!!! She goes straight to it.  What a little sweetheart. I love her snuggles.  She is currently down for her nap in her little safe space. She went straight to sleep with no cries.  Thankyou both so much for recommending this little girl to us. I think she is a perfect fit. Xoxo Arwen

Hello Corinne and Mike!  Hope all has remained well since we last spoke.  I wanted to give you a 'pupdate' on Grogu. We had him neutered last week and he took the procedure like a champ. He was a bit disoriented the day of the surgery but that's to be expected. Our vet said he did wonderful and would be back to normal within a few days, which he definitely has been. My mom and brother have been taking amazing care of him since I've been gone (I'm currently in the UK completing my law degree) and they're so glad we got him when we did.   Other than that, Grogu has been doing extremely well since we brought him home. We introduced him to a few of my friends' dogs once he was fully vaccinated and he's been loving them! We've also fully potty trained him and taught him to ring a bell every time he has to go outside.   I've included a few photos we've taken of him over the past little bit so you guys can see him in all his glory!   Warmest regards, Amara & Family

Hi Corrine and Mike!

I hope you both have been doing well and staying safe since we last spoke. I wanted to give you a brief ‘pupdate’ on Grogu! Grogu’s is an absolute BLESSING in our lives. He’s brought us so much joy and entertainment since we brought him home and he continues to amaze us everyday! He’s beginning to grow into his personality, a personality that far exceeds his small body, and we couldn’t be happier! He loves playing, snuggling and going outside, and his potty training is on point! 

He adapted to us rather quickly, within 2 days, and he was sleeping through the night within the first week! He had his second set of shots which he handled like a CHAMP and had his first grooming session. People can’t stop admiring him and complimenting him wherever we go! They absolutely LOVE his chewbacca colouring and cute features! 

We’ll continue to give you updates as we go along! Thank you so much for our precious pup, don’t know what we would do without him anymore! 

Warmest regards,

Amara

Hi Corinne,

Grogu and I have safely made it back to Ontario. He seems to be adjusting well and LOVES the outdoors! Thank you so much for the personalized touch with his goodie bag, his new favourite toy seems to be the Chewbacca toy. 

He’s eating, sleeping, and using the washroom as he should and lovesssssss his crate! He’s even snuggling the ‘real’ Grogu as we speak!

I’ll be sure to update you as he grows with us. Thank you for such a loving, curious, adventurous and charming little pup! He’s exactly what we needed in a pup and we couldn’t be happier with his temperament and personality. Enjoy a pic of him snuggling Grogu.

Warmest regards,

Amara
