Hi Vicky and Denise
We were very proud of Alice tonight as she passed the Bronze Kennel Club Good Citizen Award and went straight on to do the Silver test that she passed on the same night so we have now got two certificates and rosettes to show off . We are planning to start the Gold course with her in October.
We will take some photos and send them to you.
Christine and Lindsay and Alice and Zena
Hi Vickie
I love your website and all the girls and boys look so happy. I am the proud owner of Poacher who loved you and your doggie girls and boys and human girls and boys to bits! Well done a lovely tribute to my lovely boy-thank you!
Flynn our baby now 3 is so like Poacher in many ways but not quite the same gentleman yet.

Dear Vicky & Denise
We wanted to let u know that despite ur very kind offer, both anna and
my mum are keen to look after ella at home when we're away in a couple
of weeks - but thank you both for offering to have her back.
Ella has been an absolute joy - she gets so much attention from
everyone we meet on our walks, and seems to be really happy and
settled at home. She's growing quickly but still has her moments of
mad playfulness - and has more toys than a nursery would have! We're
all so delighted with her - thank you both for letting us take her.
Niall & Jeanette
Dear Vicky,
Just to let you know Freddie is settling really well - he is full of fun and loves Bethan and will follow her everywhere. He even slept all through the night last night which pleased me!!!
The rest of the family adore him; he is proving a real little character and likes nothing better than to play in the garden.
Kind regards,
Carolyn
We are lucky people who now own Willow's daughter, Yasmin (now called Molly). She is a complete delight and much admired wherever we go. She is kind, loving and very obedient, getting on well with all humans and dogs. We got her at 2 years old but she settled so well, I have had labs for the last 34 years and would recommend anybody who wants a lab to approach Widgerwood.
Kind regards
Ali Leftwich
Well done !!!! Georgia. happy birthday.

Hello Vicky & Denise and Georgia
Hope that she had a great day, what a lovely girl,
Samantha Parry and family.
Hello Vicky and Denise,
Just want to say a really big thank you for adding to our family with your adorable Ella. Despite a very long journey home due to M4 problems, she travelled brilliantly - but was understandably ravenous when we got home.
She is so biddable and has made herself instantly at home.
She passed her veterinary examinations with no problems - and even agreed to the slightly ignominious procedure of z bath in the Belfast sink - filling it nicely!
We feel enriched and really blessed.
Niall and Jeanette

Thank you so much for showing us your gorgeous dogs, your website does not lie, we were very impressed, we cannot wait to have our new baby,we are very happy to tell everyone about you and your dogs. Kingston is our favourite,

Hey
Just an update on Daisy, shes doing really well.Shes such a funny little dog, and so lovely. Im enjoying her immensly. We went to the beach in south devon last weekend, she loves the sea. She was doing huge circles on beach going in and out of the sea. So funny. Took her to pets at home the other day to go and get some stuff and it took us ages to get around because everyone kept stopping to touch her and say what a lovely dog she is.
Jo and Daisy
Dylan grew so much just in the first week.. He is an absolutely bundle of energy. Loves playing in the garden and has gone for his first walk (booster jab completed last Wednesday) this week. This took some time as we bumped into lots of people I knew and they all had to have a fuss, which he loves.
The vet thought he was totally gorgeous and would be very easy to train. He was great at the vets, not frightened at all. I did come armed with lots of treats, which he ate. Now that we can take him out we will be taking him to puppy socialisation classes. Our next door neighbour (Poppy who came with us to pick him up) have a spaniel and friends over the road have a retriever so he has met a few already. I think the training classes are for me not him as I have forgotten how to do it.
We absolutely adore him, as you can probably tell. He has a very gentle temperament and is very cuddly.We will be down to my dad's in the summer and would love to come by and visit if this is ok?
Sarah
I would just like to coment on your website, this is one of the best site i have come across, full of information about your dogs, you made us so special when we came to see your babies, we were so impressed with the puppy room, and your babies are wonderful, your dogs are gorgeous, they really are a credit to you. To see your girls running total free in the fields was great we have taken so lovely pictures to treasure until we come again to take our baby home.
We would gladly recommend you to anyone looking for a puppy.
Katy and the girls
Hey Girls
Thanks so much for yet another fantastic, loving, bright eyed intelligent boy. Ryan has settled in so well it's as if he was born here!Loving his life here in Melin Court with his equally gorgeous big brother, Alex (son of Chaos, formerly known as Alfie...)
The boys are soul mates, and spend so much time together and get very upset when I part them for "night nights". Ryan has mastered commands, "sit" "paw" and the best one of all, "tickle belly" when he promptly lies on his back and waits for his tickles. He sleeps through the night, is fully house trained and loves his lead. He has had small walks but gets so annoyed when his brother is allowed to swim in the river, but he has to watch and just paddle.
I can't begin to say how happy he has made our home. Our four kids adore him and we are now a complete family.
Thanks so so much xxxxx Rhian Daryl Emily Sam Lucy and Jo
What a wonderful site, your labs are a credit to you, we were totally amazed meeting you both and your dogs, we have never seen such happy dogs, your kennels are well organised , and a so well thought out, to see the girls running free and playing in the fields was great, your puppies were gorgeous, and raising your babies in the house really appealed to us. Kingston was a real hit with us, what a super dog, and so gentle, we cannot wait to have our baby home.
Tina Wells.
Thank you very much for showing us your lovely dogs, we could have taking them all home with us. The children thought your puppy room was great, and loved having all the cuddle from the
puppies, Please make sure that we are on your list for a black boy, ( or can we please have Ollie )

Little Ollie (Trevor) is doing well. Has gained half his body weight in the first week and is settling in with Louis and Oscar.
We’ll keep you updated.
Happy xmas
Nigel & Sue
Milly too is going to sit by the back door when wanting to go out to toilet - quite how she does this i dont know! We have started her on walking round the garden on her lead which so far is going well, Milly is a clever girl!! She is sleeping through the night and certainly lets us know when it is breakfast time. The little snow we have had hasnt caused her any problems at all, just something else to explore
The firm NO works well - thank you!! Milly seems to have noticably grown over the last few days and goes from a mad hour to lots of sleep .
Just acouple of questions today - what sort of weight is ideal for age? And also how much time do they spend sleeping??
Helen
Hi Vicky
Realised I have had Charlie 5 years today, the time has just flown, best thing I ever did, just love her. Feel a bit guilty as now have to work at the office rather than at home, but come home every lunch time and have her walked three times a week just to break her day up. Think she actually likes it so she can just snooze the day away. Have to say she is a bit on the lazy side, when I say "walk" no reaction, if I say "Biscuit" a very different reaction!!
When we lived in Cyprus she would even take herself off to visit a neighbour "Biscuit Ray" only time she has left my side. Real panic the first time it happened, there she was having biscuits on the lawn with Ray.
Will
Hi both,
Gracie is settling in very well in her new home. She is so well behaved and seems very confident and brave!! I have attached a couple of pics taken yesterday. I hope you can open them.
She went to the vets this morning and was given a 'clear bill of health' and will have her first vacinations next week.
Thank you for a beautiful puppy!!
Best wishes, Vic & Jo
Dear Ladies,
Thank you very much for our electronic card. It was lovely. Well our little angel 'Poppy' is now almost 5 months old, and we can't believe how quickly she is growing. It only seems like yesterday that she was a small pup. She is wonderful company for both of us, and we certainly do a lot more walking now than we did before; which is not a bad thing. We are certainly glad that we have her, and the children think that she is fantastic.
There are some pictures attached for you to see what sh looks like now.
Have a wonderful Xmas and a Happy New Year. Baden and Christine.
Hi Vicky & Denise
Just a few more pictures for you to keep in touch with Anna & Silas. They are absolutely gorgeous and have settled in seemlessly, We are taking 6 of our 10 dogs (2 of which will be Silas and Anna) to Cornwall in November. We'll have a week of long beach walks, pub grub and log fires. I think the dogs will have a great time. Hope all is going well for you....Jo Locke.
Dear Both
Delighted with Saffy's photos on your website and yes she is a proper madam, very strong willed and I have had to make her a proper seat in between us in the motor home as I would have lost my seat, she insists on being on her throne for the whole journey and takes great interest in everything. She is well travelled and has a high milage already. When we had her she fitted in the well in the dashboard and as she grew would insist on being up front and would even interfere with the driving by standing on her hind legs with paws on steering wheel to see out so she had to have her own seat, as you can see on the photo she still changes gears. Love Steve, Diana and Saffy.
From Brodie
Hello Vicky, long time no see, thanks for letting me go to my new human pets they seem to be looking after me ok ,lots of food loves and kisses and plenty of games and walks, they even taught me use this computer,clever ain't i.Heres a couple of photos i made them take especially for you.I think you would agree i'm turning into a rather handsome chap.If we can do any thing to help give me a shout and i'll tell the grey haired fella , i can generally get him to do most things for me. PS give my love to mum and dad.Mike Doyle & family
Hi Vicky and Denise
I thought that you would like to know that Alice passed her Pets as Therapy test with flying colours and we have just received her certificate. We will take a photo of her when she makes her first visit and send it to you.
Best Wishes Christine and Lindsay and Alice and Zena
Hi Vicky,
Barbara and me are hoping every thing is good for you guys up in the mountains.Brodie is truely wonderful in all ways he's turning into a magnificent young man but still remains a right little b*****. lol!!
I'll send some photos take care, Mike
Hi Ladies
Just a quick note to say what a beautiful and wonderfully behaved little boy we have......
He cried for only 10 minutes last night before sleeping all night and didn't wee or poo all night.
He's a joy to own already and a credit to the pair of you.
The girls absolutely adore him and he adores them too, it's like we've had him years. Thank you so much for letting us have him.
Sarah, Dave, India, Madison and Bumble xx
Hi Girls
Well I hate to tell you this but it's like he's always been here!!!!!!
He slept in the foot well at my feet all the way home, has been fed and watered and runs round the garden like a nutter. He loves the girls and is now fast asleep and snoring by the oven, even though his den is up and running....... Oh and he's had 2 wees and a poo in the back garden.
He's absolutely gorgeous and seems to love Daddy more than Mummy, not happy about that :-)
Will send pics soon. Sarah, Dave, India, Madison and Bumble xxxxxxxxxxx
Hello Widgerwood.
I would just like to say a big thank you for cheering up my mother so much, one of your dogs comes to visit the elderly home, my mother is now living in, after becoming to ill to stay in her own home, she looks forward to seeing Sadie when ever she visits. Which is now every other week, it has really opened up her life, after loosing so much. Wendy Grey Bude
Vicky and Denise
She has just completed her first advanced obedience course and we are waiting for the next one to start. She is very intelligent.!!!
Alice is now old enough to be a PAT dog and has got her Pets as Therapy assessment next week. We will let you know how she gets on. Christine and Lindsay (and a lick from Alice and Zena)
Hello,
How are you all and the pack?
We are up to nine dogs now and Anna is really happy and playing loads. She goes for a swim in the river every day and loves fetching balls. She interacts with all of the pack and she has pride of place each night on her own bed. Bob & Jo Locke
Vicky & Denise,
We fully understand what you are going through, Jo had to re-home two dogs when she met me - feel terrible about that now as I could never give up any of the ones we have now.
From the instant we got Silas home we knew we would adore him, everything about him, his looks, his beautiful smile, his wonderful nature makes us feel both humbled and priviledged to be allowed to have him. He is having the most wonderful time with Ana and indeed all the dogs have accepted him easily.
Please rest assured that he will be completely loved by us and will we send pictures soon.
Keep in touch and hope all is going well?
Regards
Jo & Bob
Hi Girls
Alfie is rapidly approaching 6 months old - so as promised, here's an update on how he's doing, what he's been up to and also some pics that so that you can see him in action...............Alfie is in rude health, full of energy and always ready to play with Charlie our 15mth old chocolate lab. He's very cute and is going to be a very handsome dog... I've never seen an animal eat so quickly - he can hoover up his meals in nano-seconds, I've got him trained on the basics - he's a quick learner and seems to enjoy putting his intelligence to work in the mischief department - the current favourite trick being popping the bin lid in the kitchen and sorting the non edible contents from the edible - as you know, a Labs definition of edible is pretty wide ranging so I've taken to putting the bin out of harms way at night.Gary Parke
Hello Vicki and Denise,
Hope you are all well. It's lovely weather down here in Somerset at the moment and the bluebells look stunning.
Gina and Bliss are both really well and are both totally gorgeous. Now they are both going to be 3 this year!! (it seems only a moment ago Bliss was tiny) we are embarking on tooth cleaning lessons - not cos they have dirty teeth but as they get older I think its a good idea - Bliss loves it but Gina is a little more reserved about the idea.
They both have settled to having hens in the garden really well and are both really good with them although the chickens are fenced off for safety. Bliss is really good at stealing eggs if you put them down for a moment to do something but has never cracked one yet - when she does I suspect she will soon learn they are tasty!
They are both absolutely super and we love them to bits.
Warmest regards to all at Widgerwood from Louise, Gina and Bliss.
Hi Vicky,
I bumped into a lady last week who has a dog from you (he is a stunner) think she said Henry but meet
That many dogs I get confused by their names. Anyway he had a great time playing with my dogs and we
Had a lovely chat. She said there is a photo of him on the beach on your website

All the best for Christmas and the New Year
Hope you are well
Hi! This is the little girl who picked Chip up on my Birthday, Paul's daughter, Billie. I just wanted to tell u that Chip is really growing, he looks a lot like Moose! I was wondering if when we come up I could stroke Moose? He is really like Chip, Chip's really funny, He is a bit naughty, like he pulls on the lead a bit, but we are teaching him. He can 'Lie Down', 'Sit' 'Paw' and he is sort of getting the hang of 'Other Paw'. I look at your website all the time. I think your bassets are really cute, Lace is reall cute too. I will have to try send you some pictures of Chip, I will ask my Dad to help me lol.
Merry Christmas!Billie - Jo Matthews
Silk has really settled in with our way of life and thoroughly enjoys her morning walks especially at the weekend when they tend to last a couple of hours each day. She responds well to the whistle I use and enjoys retrieving her ball and has learnt to search for it when I ask her to.
She is maturing well and each day she looks more and more like her Dad. She is very fit and healthy and I watch her diet as I do with Rio.
She does make us laugh. One minute she is a Princess next she is a bulldozer!
Well Vicky and Denise can we The Dixon's wish you both, your families and very importantly all your charges a Merry Christmas and Happy & Healthy New Year.

Dear Denise and Vicky
Congratulations on Alice's brother Kingston's success on his first time out in the show ring. We will be interested to see how Whoopie gets on.
Alice is still doing well and is growing up fast. She is very intelligent and doing well with her dog training classes at which she has nearly completed the intermediate course.

Hi Girls, Happy Halloween and all that. How are you all? Just a line to say what a really gorgeous and beautiful doggy we have and what a fabulous job you have done. Rollo has really brought a special love into our home and we all adore him. So far, people we meet on our walks can't believe how good he is at obeying our commands as he so young. He has never soiled in his cage or in our home but barks to tell us he wants to go out. Debbie and family
Brilliant Win !!!! Kingston is beautiful, watched with interest, you have a lovely write up for him, i have said before and say again you and Denise have some lovely dogs.....

Well that's a week now since Olive joined our gang and I have to say we have all fallen in love with her.
She has settled in really well and is getting on great with Molly our other Lab.
She got a full bill of health from the vets. She is being really good at night also. For the last 3 nights she has slept right through, which is fab.
I have taken hundreds of pics but yet to download them! As soon as I have
done I will send you some updated pics.

It does not seem possible that it is still less than a week since we collected our nearly six month old puppy Alice from you. Alice has settled wonderfully well. Anyone would think that she had been with us for years. She is a really sweet gentle little thing who loves everyone: people and animals alike, and has just taken everything in her stride. Alice is getting on very well with our 11 year old retired Labrador/Retriever Guide dog, Zena who has become a good adopted grand-mother to her. We have been to a junior adult training class with Alice and she is so intelligent that she has already gone beyond what we were taught in our first lesson. Without being asked, Zena demonstrated what the trainer was trying to get Alice to do and she then cottoned on very quickly. We have taken Alice out to eat with us several times to a variety of different places and she has been remarkably well behaved. People are amazed when we tell them that she is not quite six months yet and we have only had her a few days. One lady at the table next to us commented that we have ' the perfect dog' and we certainly agree.

I have been looking at your website for sometime now, you dogs are truly a credit to you, Your website itself shows the care you have for them. You spent lots of time updating your puppies who have gone to new homes, which to me means that you do keep in contact with the owners of your pups, Keep up the fantastic work, its lovely to know that there are true, good and honest breeders out there. One of your comments on your website was if there is an after life they wish to come back as a Widgerwood lab, i second that good luck in all that you do from an admirer of the Widgerwood Labs

I have THE most gorgeous new addition to my family in the form of Alex, our black Lab! That makes five children in all! Alex came to live with us on Monday 9th June 2008 and i am hard pressed now to imagine our home and life without him in it. He is such a fantastic creature with the charisma to challenge those of George Clooney and James Bond. He has impeccable manners and a lovely disposition with the children. He has made lost of human friends, but more importantly he has a canine friend called Beauty who is a collie cross. She really puts him in his place when they are together. Alex has settled in very well not only with our home but indeed our lives. Bye for now and thank you so much.

Dear Vicky and Denise. A big thank you once again for our little boy, Jasper, even at only 10 weeks he's such a character with such a sweet nature. I think it was love at first site when we first met him at 6 weeks! He's so intelligent and has already mastered the " sit " and " down " commands in less than a week since we brought him home. Thank you also for your great advice and time spent with us in preparation for his move to his new home. It is plain to see that you both love and care so much about all your dogs ! We will email pics soon

What a great site, you can see you care about your dogs whether they are with you or with their new owners. You are always on the end of the phone if i need help with my dog, you don't get that with a lot of breeders as soon as they take you money that's the last they want to hear from you. Please accept a big thank you to both for all your help.

This is one of the Best website's i have seen in a long time. Very informative, its refreshing to read that you do not pull punches, when are people going to realize, your utter dedication, if they read though your website your contracts, and read the way you try to ensure your puppies go to the right homes. I have heard before of Widgerwood Labradors.
I have been introduced through your website to all your wonderful dogs.
Your guestbook is amazing. Keep up the brilliant job you are doing, how refreshing to find a decent Labrador breeder. Your puppy pictures are gorgeous. Keep up the great work you do
Fellow Labrador breeder.
Hi Vicky,
I would just like to say a big thank you to both you and Denise for your time, patience and advice. For those reading this entry one of Vicky's older pups has joined our family as a pal for our other lab Rio who will be 5 in May. He is a big strong black lab and now we have a gorgeous yellow girl to keep him on his toes. It is a mark of the high standard of breeding at Widgerwood that the new addition has settled in so quickly. She has been with us now for four weeks and she has been absolutely remarkable. Nothing has fazed her from the very start, washing machine, tumble dry, etc have never bothered her. She walks side by side with Rio on a lead and has never been worried by passing traffic when walking on a pavement. She is now 7 months old has been the easiest and most well balanced dog to train that i have owned. Vicky, i am sure that your love for animals and dogs in particular rubs off on all your charges and makes it that much easier for them to settle into their new homes. For those of you who are considering having a Labradors to join your family, in my experience I cannot recommend a better place for you to start looking!!. With best wishes, Keith Petra and the boys

Your dogs are gorgeous i wish my partner would let me have one. I like reading your about us page,
Great to see women can do up a property keep up the great work!!.

Your site is very informative, you have very good looking Labs. I like looking through the page of all the dogs that are now in new homes i think its great that they are still in contact with you, not many breeders are interested when the dogs have gone to new homes. Keep up the good work

Firstly, i would like to say the biggest thank you ever, we have been looking for a Labrador puppy for a very long time, after losing our old boy. Going to kennels and looking and always coming away with nothing. I don't think i have ever met someone so dedicated to her dogs such as you, we are coming a long way to have one of your babies, after seeing the fabulous pictures of your babies, we are quite happy for you to pick a baby for us. We are so pleased that we waited and found this wonderful Widgerwood site, we have spent hours talking to you, we have been through all your dogs on your site and the love and devotion that Oozes from every page, all your dogs look very similar, which means to us you go to great lengths to breed your Labradors, to the best standard you can.
All we can say about Widgerwood is fabulous !! Lovely to find a genuine breeder who really cares about her dogs and their well being, You only have to read the guestbook, we cannot wait until the 4th until we pick up our baby, The biggest ever thank you.

Once again we have looked at this wonderful site you must be so proud of your dogs. Thank you for being so helpful, it is so nice to be able to listen to the real dedication that you and Denise offer in your fabulous dogs. We lost our lovely boy at the tender age of 14 years it is too soon for us to open our hearts to another just yet. But we would have no reservations in coming to have a Widgerwood baby. Thank you once again for all your help and guidance.

Morse has only been with us since the beginning of November, but he has settled in really well and feels like part of the family. We takes it in turns to walk him and if he is lucky he goes in the car to Epping Forest, where he can runoff lead. He's been swimming in Conaught Waters twice - very smelly !! We're very happy he is with us, and i think he is happy too!

We weren't planning to have another lab, as we have a 10 year old chocolate. Then we met Ebony, as her name suggest she is a black lab, eight years old this month (Nov) She joined our family just before Easter this year and has brought much laughter and sunshine into our lives. Lass our choc, has lost weight and had a second lease of life and they love going for walks together in the forest and down the beach - and stand back when they see water - Ebony is a real water baby !
Thank you for letting us have Ebony.

Hi Vicky and Denise, Just wanted to say a Huge thank you for giving us our very own Widgerwood boy - Monty. He has only been with us one full day so far but has already become an established member of our family. We stumbled across your website by pure chance, but clearly fate was on our side. I do not think we could have found a more caring, responsible and committed dog owners if we had tried. Monty is already proving himself to be good tempered and full of character. Your dogs are a credit to you!!.

Thank you Vicky and Denise, Your website is so good! I love you dogs, I love your philosophy. You ooze care and commitment. We have just lost our (mixed breed ) dog (18years) who was so precious to us and so we are sad right now. We have been discussing our next canine friend and we thought we would like to buy a pedigree black Labrador puppy in the New Year. Therefore i am starting my search of quality breeders. You say you occasionally have puppies. Any plans for early 2008 ? Kind regards

I have been watching and waiting for an update on your sister site, makes very interesting reading. I cannot believe that these people are judges of the basset breed. They should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. At least people can read for themselves the disgrace they have caused themselves. I wonder if they now realize that they are not dealing with just yourselves, because you seem to have a lot of followers out there. Keep up the good work, and keep breeding your bassets. Good luck to you both It was my pleasure to add my piece to this, there will of course be many more.

Second signing but i forgot to leave any comments the first time I thought it only fair to tell people how i was treated by Vicky and Denise.....All i can say is that the service that you get at their premises must be second to none, very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. We have purchased two male puppies from them: both are great fun and full of life. If i were to ever have any problems i wouldn't hesitate to contact them. Many ,many thanks

Hello Vicky and Denise, Bliss has settled in very well and is absolutely lovely. She has a smashing personality and absolutely adores children. She and Bentley my GSD love each other and spend a lot of time washing each other, which is really cute to watch. She has bought so much fun into our lives. Thank you we could not have found a better member of our family

I love being the very proud owner of Bobby a very special Widgerwood Labrador. He arrived home with me on Monday the 2nd October after a very long car journey which he slept most of the time he never complained once. We stopped for a couple of breaks for him to drink and wee and he just took the journey in his stride. He has not left my side he accompanies me to work and now when i get the car out he sits waiting to get in and the little harness he wears in the car he patiently sits whilst it is clipped in. Friends and family love him to bits and he receives them all graciously he; a big hit with our family.
Thank you so much

Just to let you know that Sophie has had a very happy 2nd birthday today! it is just about a year ago that we made the journey to Wales to pick her up and i can only say, that after the initial settling period, she has given up nothing but pure joy. She is loving, gentle and undemanding. Wherever we go she is admired, she has learned to love the attention and we all adore her.

Hi Guys, just a quick note to let you know how we're doing with Bobby now he's home. Everybody has commented on how handsome he is and the vet could not praise him ( and you ) enough, he is healthy and a credit to you. He is only getting us up at night and not tiddles in the house at all. He's also sooo clever. He has mastered sit already and is almost there with giving his paw, the vet was blown away when we showed her.... she could not believe we had only had him a few days!!!
Thanks so much for all you help and advice, anyone who might want a reference, please feel free to contact us.. we only have great things to say!!
We were looking for a chunky big looking Labrador for 3 months, i sent out over 30 emails to selected breeders and was really impressed with the email i had back from Victoria. She was extremely knowledgeable and you can tell that she loved her dogs!! We reserved a dog and met him on Saturday and he was without doubt the most beautiful little boy i have ever seen, defiantly worth traveling from Brighton to Wales! The owners are both lovely, very caring and respectful of their animals and know the breed back to front, we were very impressed with everything. Thanks so much for making this happen, we are so very happy with Jackson, he is great!

Hello again Vicky & Denise, we would like to say the biggest thank you possible, can we just say it was the biggest pleasure to met you and Denise in person, and to meet all the dogs was the greatest honor, we have looked at lots of litters trying to choose the right puppy for us. But meeting you and your dogs was the best day of our lives, you have changed our minds from wanting a black bitch to having a stunning yellow boy, lovely to see such a happy bunch of kids, fab heads and beautifully kept. Your dogs are beautiful, we cannot wait for our baby to come home with us....thanks again for your kindness both of you,
