Hello Carol,
It’s been awhile since we sent an update with Sophie and we thought her 1st birthday was appropriate! Sophie is still great and smarter than ever! She continues to be a blessing in our lives. She remains small! About 8lbs. I check your updates and laugh when I read the others updates like Shadow and her eating habits. So totally Sophie. Doesn’t care that much about her food but very interested in everyone elses or another dogs food. She continues to be a great “therapy” dog without being a therapy dog! We had to put my mother in an assisted living facility so we get there every week. Not every day like when she was in rehab. but she is so good and knows just how to behave and be comforting!
Jared is about to finish his first year of middle school! I don’t know how it went so fast. He loves having a puppy again! Sophie can’t wait to wake him up every morning! We contemplate getting another one. We watched Lil’ girl for the longest time and Troy was ready to jump on a plane and come get her but we have a big wedding in July and timing wasn’t quite right. I see the new litter! We continue to follow and when/if we are ready, you may get a call from us! Sophie so loves having another dog around. She wants a playmate! Of course, she thinks that would be a great 1st birthday gift! We are transitioning from her puppy food and is doing well. Attached is a picture of Miss Sophie. She’s a little scruffy! Needing a bath but lovable all the same.
We hope all is well there.
Holly, Troy and Jared Salisbury
We like to refer to Stanley as our “empty nest puppy”. We found ourselves with two college age kids and the house a little to quiet. With my husband and our son having allergies we never entertained the idea of a puppy. Suddenly, I found myself researching hypoallergenic dogs and came across the Havanese. I emailed a couple breeders and Carol responded immediately. We had a phone conversation and even knowing we had never had a puppy, Carol was more than willing to take us under her wing and teach us everything we needed to know and everything we needed to get for the new pup.
Carol, we want to thank you so much for blessing us with our sweet Lucy! She has brought so much joy and love to our home. She sleeps in her crate all night long and has learned how to sit, stay, shake and rollover in only a few weeks. Carol you did such a good job giving her the love and care she needed before becoming a part of our family !!
Our Hattie is such a wonderful puppy with just the right amount of energy. She plays so well with us and by herself and her favorite toy is her pink piggy which she is beginning to know the name of. She is so full of love and joy that I cannot get enough of her. It took her only a couple of days to learn to potty outside and when necessary to use her pee pads indoors. Thank you for your dedication to breeding such great puppies in a clean and loving home. Hattie came to us confident and happy. I appreciate your total willingness to talk and answer questions. Thank you Carol, I will always take great care of her, Sande
