Doolin and Gabrielle went to America at the same time. Gabrielle was very pretty and Doolin had the most wonderful gentle nature, so they were a good combination.

Hi Mary & Steve,

Well, we just returned from Puppy Class and the pups did really well.  They were the stars.  The trainer used them to show everyone else how to get results.  He used them because as he put it, they are extremely intelligent and fast to learn.  He told them that their dogs will get it eventually and not to be discouraged.

We are extremely happy with both of them.  Steve wanted to know in two weeks which I would like best.  I know what he meant as Doolin is laid back and Gabby is a devil at times.  We both like the differences in personality and they are a delight to us.

They are getting used to the rain and cooler temperatures.  Doolin sometimes does not appreciate having to go out before bed but he always comes through.

 We shall keep in touch and let you know how they are doing. The trainer has people involved in agility and we will probably go in that direction.

August 2003

They are almost one year old and are still wonderful puppies.  Another year from now and they will be dogs.  We are enjoying them and I think that they are happy to be here.

 We take them out back of our property and let them go and Gabby is so fast and Doolin is always trying to play catch up.  They are so much fun to watch.  They like hiking around and so do we so it is a good fit.


Gabrielle and Doolin have been here over a week and seem to be settling in quite nicely.   I took them to the Vet on Monday and he said that they were in great shape.  He immediately picked up on the difference in personalities.  I think he was a little partial to Doolin.  That seems to be the consenus of a lot of people they have met. That may also be because he is such a puppy.


Gabrielle is definitely a handful but I think that I am up to it.  She comes when her name is called.  She will sit and stay on command for a while.  I have used the down/stay with her at least once usually twice a day and she goes for it after about five to ten times depending on her level of excitment.  She then just goes to sleep.  Is this okay?   I wake her after 1/2 hour and release her but she usually just goes back to sleep.

We had our first puppy class last night.  It was just for Richard and myself.  The pups get to go next week.  The trainer already told everyone else in the class that these two dogs were extremely intelligent and would exceed their dogs by a long way.  Of course, we already knew that.   I'll stay in touch and let you know how they are doing.

"The pups are a delight and we enjoy them more every day. Doolin is such a lover. He wants to snuggle up all the time. Gabby does so when she sees him getting too much attention."
