 Hello Corinne,
Haven't sent you an email for quite a while and now that she's two and a half we probably should. Moka is the sweetest little dog with too big of a personality to handle! All our friends are astonished that she goes to the bathroom in a litter box and how she talks (not barks not even close) to us. She makes all her necessities known without a question. She is my baby. She has been to Palm Springs twice, Seattle, downtown Vancouver and various islands on the boat and she is so adaptive.  She has turned into our life and I don't know how we lived without her!!! Thank you for matching us with the best dog possible it is crazy how well she fits into our life.
Thanks,
The "B" 

 Hi Corinne,
Just wanted to give you an update on our lovely puppy! She is getting cuter and funnier everyday! We love her so much! The vet was amazed at how calm she was when she got her second set of shots, she made us so proud! She runs up and down the stairs and we find her playing with toys in her crate sometimes! She's already been to Victoria and Seattle and was wonderful in a hotel. She's an amazing puppy and whenever we take her anywhere it takes twice as long because everyone is asking about her! She can sit stay come and sometimes lie down! My Uncle's neighbour bought her brother. Tucker after my aunt and uncle told them how great Moka is! Thanks for giving us such a wonderful little puppy! Here are some pictures about how big she is getting!

Thanks so much,
The "B" Family 

 Hello Corinne,
Moka is 11 months old today so we thought we should give you another update seeing it's been awhile! She is the most amazing puppy! To this day she has not ever growled or snapped at anyone. She is amazingly easy going. In December we took her to Palm Springs on an airplane. In the airport there was a toddler trying to pet her and she just sat there and let the little girl pet her. On the plane she made hardly any noise, when we took her off the plane people were surprised to find out they had a dog sitting under there chair! Also, Moka an her brother Tucker had the chance to play together and hopefully they will again soon, they had a lot of fun. This past summer Moka spent most of her time on our family's boat. It is shocking how well the litter box works. She'll just hop right in there at home and on the boat whenever she has to go and people are always amazed when they actually see her do it. She certainly does love her walks! We often take her off leash on a trail close to home and she never leaves your side if she gets up a little to far all we have to say is "Moka, get back here" and she stops, waits for you and then keeps walking with you. They way she loves to cuddle is so cute. She gets those sleepy eyes and lays in your arms like a baby...it just melts your heart it is so adorable. You gave us the perfect dog for our family. She's in a good home and we love her so much! I attached a couple pictures of her in palm springs, on the boat and just around the house!
Thanks so much, The "B" Family 

Corinne,
I just thought I’d send you an update and some newer photos of our little Moka. She’s doing very well. We had her groomed a couple of weeks ago and the groomer was commenting on how beautiful her coat is. We take her out for daily exercise to one of the many parks around our area and she gets combed out daily, (although it doesn’t look like it in the photo). She’s met most of our friends and family and they’ve all fallen in love with her! Everyone is charmed by her personality and funny little quirks. There’s a couple of little dogs in the neighbourhood that she has become friends with. We’ll be starting puppy school in mid-March, although she knows her basic commands now. Anyways hope you and your husband and dog family are doing well!
Take care, Leslie & Don 

 Everyone is charmed by her personality and funny little quirks. 

 Hi Corinne great meet you and yogi and her parents. She is so cute, and makes us laugh a lot. We are so happy we got Yogi from you, she is a real delight and brings lots of love to our house. She is still "the party starter" as you called her!
Many thanks Michael and Sylvia

 Hi Corrine!.... we had one of the best weeks of our lives with little Yogi!
She is the most calm, lovely, fun, and loveable little "person" that we have ever known! She had a little car sickness that first day,... and then a little two days later going to the vet,... but since then, she has been fine (I've been taking her a few blocks daily while stroking and encouraging her,...now she seems fine) She had her second set of shots and a check up.... came out a star (and the vet even commented on what a fantastic pup she was!) We waited until last night to crate train her (we wanted her to have a firm base of love and comfort before we did it) ... and she only whimpered a few times,.. and with the "Caesar tip" of holding her by the neck skin and putting her firmly into the den... she stopped immediately... and we all had a great night of sleep!! She remains trained for the "pine tray".. but mainly goes on the walks outside (she gets at least three per day) ....we play daily with her toys (she loves Mr. Squeaky Carrot the most)... and cuddle her as often as possible...... to sum it all up... we LOVE HER TO BITS !!!! Thank you again for raising such a lovely little girl,.. for all of your helpful information,.. and we will certainly drop by one day for her to say hello!
big hugs, Sylvia and Michael 

 WELL!... I am such a smart and wonderful puppy (my mommy keeps telling me so!) ... that I was kennel trained in one night,... NEVER have accidents in the house,.... and can keep myself entertained with my fun toys (especially after I am a little tired with all the attention I get on our walks up Main st!) According to my mommy and daddy,... I am the best puppy in the whole wide world!!! (not that I'm bragging) Most of all,... I am funny, and huggy,... and full of love...So, I am sending some to you! xoxoox Yogi 

 Hi Corinne!
 How are you?  I can't believe it's been a year since Lilly came into our lives!  She's been such a joy! We've been going to the local dog parks to play ... & funny enough, we've met 2 of Lilly's cousins, at different dog parks!!  Toby & Gibbs ... Toby is about 2 years old, similar in colouring to Lilly. We met him about a month ago in Burnaby. We met him last weekend in Surrey. I took some pics of Lilly & Gibbs. Both Toby & Gibbs were absolute dolls! & I recognized their 'look' right away. Unmistakably one of your 'tiny teddys'!  I attached the pics of Gibbs ... was hard to get them to 'pose' together, but the pics aren't too bad. Lol Anyway, hope you're all well! :)

 Hi Corinne
Lilly is absolutely amazing! I cant say enough good things about her! She is so sweet and gentle, but has the right amount of "crazy" when she's tearing around the backyard, running so incredibly fast!!! It makes us laugh so hard!  She loves playing fetch both inside and outside the house. She makes us smile and laugh every single day!  She's been so easy to take care of... She has the run of the kitchen when we're not home, but I've never come home to any crazy surprises that I've heard about from other puppy owners...no upturned garbage cans, or chewed up table legs, or cupboard contents emptied out and half eaten.   She's been SO good! And being  litter box trained when she first came home was incredible!  THAT made it so easy to have a new puppy! My friends and coworkers couldn't believe it when I told them. And she truly doesn't shed. It's amazing. She's the perfect little dog! Thank you so much!

Hi Corinne!!
I've been following your website and was so excited to see the new puppies!!! Oh my goodness, when you first posted that Kera had her pups, I couldn't wait to see the photos!! Lol ...just as if I was expecting one!!! The pups are so gorgeous!! Amazing how little they are and how much they change as they grow!  Lilly has been so amazing! I never would have imagined that we would love her so much!!  It's hard to remember life before her!  She's graduated from puppy kindergarten earlier this month...And she started intermediate classes last week.  The more I see other dogs, the more I appreciate how calm and sweet Lilly is!  And everyone just LOVES her!!! She loves people, as everyone is always quick to give her belly rubs when she flops over in front of them! I keep meaning to send you pics, so finally here  are some. I can't believe how much Lilly's hair colour changed....she went from quite dark to quite light! I would have thought she was a different dog if I didn't know! Lol (photos)Lilly at her puppy class graduation, 6 months old And yes , she's getting a little scruffy...she's in need of a hair cut!! .but it's kind of like your child's first haircut... always hate to get those 'baby' locks trimmed!! Lol Hope all is well!

 Hi Corinne, Well we now have a happy, playful puppy.  He is a joy to have in our home.  He is eating, drinking, playing, wagging his tail and using his litter box.  He was very sad for a few days but now I think he has completely adjusted to our home.  I know you will be glad to hear that he is happy again.  We will send you more pictures as he grows.

 Hi Corinne,  Tucker is doing great.  He is such fun.  He feels totally at home now and we are truly enjoying him.  He really does have a great personality.
