Hi Kristi,

I wanted to say hello, and let you know how well our Lexi (Kitty x Richie) is doing. We absolutely love this dog, and can't thank you enough for bringing her into our lives! She is cute, smart, sweet, loves to retrieve, and just brings a smile to us and all who meet her.

We did a basic obedience class at 5 mo., and she did as well as, if not better than, all the other dogs in her class! And she was by far the youngest. The instructors complimented us after each class, and encouraged us to continue with obedience, and consider agility as well.

 

 

I also wanted to let you know we had her spayed this month. Our vet now does a laparoscopic spay, and she was doing so well the next day, you would never guess she had surgery.

I have enclosed a few pictures we had taken of "the girls". I hope all is well with you, and again, we thank you for our sweet Lexi. I will highly recommend you if I hear of anyone looking for a puppy.

Chad and Kristi,

I wanted to send you a few pictures of "Boomer". He's getting along well and is such a pleasure to have with us. He's eating well and although he does take a little while to settle down into his crate each time because of his excitement, he does eventually fall asleep. 

 

He has such a good temperament and is well mannered. He and the cats are still in a bit of a "standoff", but they're warming up to him.

We're so happy to have him in our family! Thanks for all of your help.

We adopted an F1 puppy from you, almost four years ago today.
He was 16 weeks when we took him home and love that age for a puppy.

He (Buckeye) is doing VERY well and gets a lot of love, attention and compliments (we sing your praises constanly).

We live in OH and often check your site for updates.

Brody is sleeping with his favorite toy. He carries it everywhere with him. He is so sweet.

Hi Kristi!

Harley is an F1, adopted from you ~February @ 6mo age. Formerly known as Bunny.

She is PERFECT!!!!

I have only amazing things to say about Harley. She has become my joined-at-the-hip companion for all my outdoors activities... horseback riding, rock climbing, hiking, jogging, snowshoeing, etc. If we could fit skis on her and take her on the slopes, we would. She is excellent off-leash which is perfect for the activities I mentioned above. Also, she gets along fabulously with my boyfriend's dogs (and all other dogs), so we never have to leave her at home.

She is so smart! We have been learning tons of fun new tricks in short amounts of time. She is so obedient. It is incredibly refreshing to have a dog that comes when called and is eager to please.

One would think with all the activities I mentioned above that should would be really hyper, but she's not. After a few minutes of excitement for new people or new locations, she settles down and become quite the calm companion. She's excellent with children, and I have never seen a dog so happy to play with other dogs of any size.

I love Harley and couldn't be happier I bought a Riverbend dog.

Thank you so much for bringing this spirited friend into my heart.

Happy New Year from Daisy Shupe!

Daisy must have had a big night!

Hi,

I have been meaning to send you an update on the puppy we got from you last year. He was Holly's boy, born Nov. 13, 2010. He is a loving and very sweet guy, loves being in the open field and has a keen sense of smell. He also absolutely loves the water and enjoyed the summer swimming at the Lake.

Hi Chad and Kristi,

Happy New Year to you and your family. It’s been ages since we have exchanged emails and I wanted to share Cooper’s Christmas photo. He had a wonderful holiday with our family and even posed with his reindeer antlers. Cooper has grown into such a handsome fellow. He passed his Canine Good Citizen test in 2011 and is now taking his second agility class which he absolutely loves. He is so smart and so loving and we are so fortunate to have him in our lives. I have shared your website with Coopers many admirers who are interested in puppies. We also have been thinking about a brother or sister for Cooper next fall so will keep checking the website for older puppies for the future. We did fall in love with Rusty who was on your portal recently and I see he has been removed so I am so hoping he has found a forever home.

I hope all is well with you both and thanks again for our wonderful CooperJ.

Kindest regards,

Kim

Kristi and Chad,

Hope you had a great holiday and New Year.

Just wanted to give you an update on McIntire. He has been great---a very smart pup! We’ve taught him to ring a bell at the front door when he needs to go outside, but of course, there have still been accidents! He walks great on a leash (doesn’t pull) and is a great “comer”. He’s already learned to “sit” and “lie down”. All in all, we are so happy (and lucky) to have him in our family. Attached is our Holiday card picture with McIntire. Our friends and family from NJ (we relocated from there recently) can’t wait to meet him!

Thanks again for everything,

Charles and Michelle
