Hello!

Just wanted to update you on Uncle Bob (Joey/Lucy) who is turning 5 on Cinco de Mayo and Murphy (Elvis/Corvina) who turned 1 yr on March 5, 2010. Murphy gets lots of extra attention from people walking by about his one beautiful blue eye, but Uncle Bob is the one to grab all the attention by his extra outgoing personality and buff body! They are doing great and love each other! They have been healthy with no problems whatsoever which is awesome. Our vet just loves them too! Here is a pic of the two of them- they hang out on the sofa all day waiting for me to come home from work, even when my husband Kevin is home with them. They are the best, and just wanted to let you know. Also, they eat a totally raw diet from Excel K9 which keeps them both in tip top shape. :-))

Cheers,
Susan Hutson-O'Leary

Hi DBT,
I just wanted to THANK YOU for the beautiful puppy we took home just before Christmas 2009. He is everything I wanted in a Boston....super sweet, calm, bursts of energy, and so much fun. He loves everyone and thinks he is as big as any dog we meet. He has no concept of his size. I can't tell you how pleased I am with his personality and disposition. I don't know if you remember that I had visited another breeder with show quality dogs prior to visiting you. Those dogs didn't stop barking and my kids had their hands over their ears the entire visit. They literally asked not to have a puppy. When we visited you I was so struck by how calm and friendly all the dogs were. I love that I was able to meet Bo's mom and grandma! You were so right....he is perfect for young kids....my four and five year old can't get enough of him and he is so good to them. They love to run with him but he is just as good at cuddling on the couch! Alice's line is absolutely brilliant!!!


Thank you also for just being a great person. You have always been so open to talking with us about all puppy related issues. I love that your dogs are raised to be just plain awesome! It felt like you hand picked the puppy that was perfect for us!


I have become such a huge Boston Terrier fan through Bo. He is almost 7 months old and has stolen our hearts. I can't imagine a better dog for our young family!


Take care and thank you for everything!
Cheryl

 

 

 

To anyone interested in Boston Terriers, Look no further. You literally have to go to the top of the mountain
for these little angels but when you get there, You will know you have arrived. We searched long and hard
for many months and came across Day Boston Terriers. More specifically DBT. A very kind and nurturing
woman who really knows her Boston's. As you can see by the pictures we have some pretty good looking Pups.
Super healthy and with amazing personalities. We went to pick up just one puppy and well you know.
Watching them run and play together is like a breath of fresh air. You can't help but forget your troubles
and just smile from ear to ear with pure innocence. These two have really been a joy in our lives and in
such challenging times we all need a little piece of joy to hold onto to. (In this case 2 Pieces.)


We would recommend DBT and Day Boston Terriers to anyone looking to bring this breed of sunshine
into their lives. DBT's ability to breed such superior Boston's is absolutely Genies and we hope
that if a Boston is what you are after then you will make the drive to the top of the mountain where the
angels live.


Regards,


Dante Cernobori and Joanne Warren

 

Hello,

I'm not sure if Jenna has emailed you anything about Gilbert yet. Things have been amazing so far. The little guy slept almost the whole way home. We stopped to let him eat and drink. He even used his puppy mat to poop on the way home :). He has an AMAZING attitude and Courage beyond recognition! He has been doing very well using puppy pee mats and is getting better each day. He sleeps through the night pretty much. We get up every few hours to let him go potty and to get a drink. He always has kisses for us and (when awake) is always down to wrestle and rough house. I'm sure Jenna will email you soon with her perspective, but so far he has been PERFECT. I could not be happier. A lot of people warned me to stay away from breeders, but I was SO excited to see how personal you were with the puppies and how much you cared for the dogs. It was immediately apparent that you love the breed and our dog. Thank you for everything! ( Pebble's recent Litter)

DBT, I totally understand!  I read up about them over the weekend.  I can only imagine the challenges.  Cosmo is absolutely the sweetest thing I've ever seen.  I really gravitated toward him when you wrote that his nose was longer.  You know how spoiled Lee and I are with Zoey & Zeke having longer noses.  They have no problems going to the park and running like crazy, or long walks over 1.5 miles.  I still watch closely, and Zeke, being heavier, gets tired sooner than Zoey, but overall, we know we're lucky with them having longer noses.  Zeke sleeps right next to my head, and with the exception of an occasional grunt, he doesn't snore at all.  Zoey's under the covers near my legs (until later in the night, when she sticks her head out near my feet).

 

Oh the absolute joy and wonder of having my kids.  When I read about Frenchies, I did see alot that they like to have their people around them and tend to pick out one person.  I was going to tell Lee about Cosmo, but then when I read that, I thought, "Oh my baby boy, Zeke .... he's such a mama's boy.  It would probably be traumatic for him to share my attention."  Zoey's so independent -- as long as I'm throwing a ball for her, she doesn't care what Zeke's doing.  She lives for her balls.

 

And then I saw your little Jolly girl .... how cute is she.  

 

Oh well... 2's enough for now.  As always and forever, we are so grateful for our precious little babies and all the good breeding, feeding, care and nurturing you put into your dogs.

 

Take care.

 

Pam 

 

 

Hello DBT & DBT! I’ve wanted to write for a while, but today was a perfect day as today, our little princess Zoey is 5 years old! Lee and I have often wondered how Zoey’s other 10 brothers and sisters are doing, and whether they have the wonderful personalities and skinny, muscular form that Zoey does.

I’ve attached pictures. Look at our beautiful girl! She is our treasure! She still loves to play ball …. Lee takes a tennis racquet to the park on weekends and hits the balls and away Zoey goes. People stop and stare because she’s lightening fast! Not an ounce of fat on her – all muscle! She’s a toughie girl, too, letting Zeke know when he’s out of line. And yet, when we’re at work, she has to go lay down or bring Zeke toys when he’s in his crate.

Zeke is our handsome boy! He is the sweetest baby in the whole world. And a mama’s boy! He loves to give kisses. I can’t come home from work without him running up to mama and telling me, “Kisses, mama.” And at night, when he climbs his stairs to go to bed, he sits by daddy’s head and washes Lee’s face. And daddy loves it (this from a guy who had said no kisses when we were set to get Zoey!!!!) He doesn’t do well on his own (we tried at about 6 months old. He chewed on a coffee table.). He’s lost without some sense of direction and parameters so he stays in his crate during the day and doesn’t mind. When I leave for work, I tell him, “Time for cookies (organic chicken treats)” and Zeke runs into his crate and sits waiting for me.

Zeke is a big boy, DBT. He weighs in at 41 pounds. But he’s strong and no baby fat. Just big. We say that Zoey got the tall-tall combination with Alice and Hoover, and Zeke got the tall-wide combination with Alice and Joey. And he’s a hunter just like his daddy. We go hunting for bunnies every morning. When Zeke wakes up, he goes to the guest bedroom window and looks out for bunnies. If he sees one, he runs to mama and let’s me know, “We have to go NOW, Mom.”

We spoil them both. As a friend visiting recently said, “You’re a little over the top with how you treat your dogs.” That’s just the way it is. Walks every morning and evening, park time on weekends. Organic everything – NO preservatives. Regular baths and manicures. They both sleep with us. And plenty of bones because they love their bones! But more importantly, we constantly interact with them. Talking, kissing, touching … they are our kids! My license plate holder reads: “All my children have paws.”

We have told people about Day Boston Terriers numerous time since none of the Bostons we’ve met even come close to how beautiful and wonderfully dispositioned our babies are. And we have a number of friends who have Bostons. But Day Boston breeds the best! I’ve tried to convince Lee to get another one – there was a cutie girl recently on your site that had a partial white ear – her face and your description of her looked and sounded just like Zeke – a real love bug. But Lee says we’re perfectly matched right now – 2 of us; 2 of them. And I do agree. Plus I would worry that either
Zoey or Zeke would feel jealous, and Lee and I do just about anything necessary to ensure our babies are healthy, happy and well-adjusted.

Well, enough of all that. We hope you are doing well. Do you ever get pics from Zoey’s litter mates? A family reunion in photos would be a kick – given the large litter they came from. And how is Alice? Is she still with you? If yes, tell her that Zoey and Zeke are well taken care of and we are always grateful for her wonderful traits and genes she gave to them.

Blessings to you both,
Pam Witt & Lee St. Pierre
Zoey & Zeke

Hi DBT and DBT,

I thought you might enjoy seeing a couple pictures of our athletic Ruby playing frisbee on the beach, sleeping and running from her sister. She will be 4 years old on October 5th and I have enjoyed every minute with her!
Hope you get a laugh out of these pictures.

Sincerely,

Hi

DBT and DBT,

I realized you would probably love to see pictures of our handsome, healthy boy, thanks to the both of you! Also I wanted to let you know that we have decided to neuter him as well. He has become a little aggressive toward other dogs, especially male dogs while on his walks and we don't want that for him, so we decided it would be best to get him fixed.
We are so very thankful for the both of you for first of all breeding such wonderful Boston's and more importantly we are so thankful for the both of you nursing him back to health for us! If it were not for your generosity in nursing him back to health we don't know what we would have done. You both gave us an amazing gift and are so thankful we have Solo in our lives!
Solo, is so special to us. He believes he is a large dog, but he loves to cuddle and give kisses! He loves playing fetch and going for walks and feels he is King wherever he goes. Toys, especially stuffed toys don't last very long, but he always keeps us going! More importantly he keeps us smiling! He has lots and lots of energy which we love and has gotten the nickname from family "hunner mile an hour".
So once again Thank you!
We look forward to buying more Boston's from the both of you in the future!

Dustin, Jessica and Solo Riker

Hi DBT,

 

I thought you would like to see a picture of two of your former puppies with their new little (not for long) sister. The one on the left is Rocko and he was from your Boston Terrier/French Bulldog litter  from 12/1/06 and the one in the middle is Winston from Anna's litter born on 9/11/06. The one on the right is Bella, our new Mastiff.

 

We just wanted to let you know how great is has been having both Winston and Rocko these past two plus years. They are both fantastic dogs. Smart, well behaved and just a ton of fun to have around. They are the best of buddies and where one goes the other one is sure to follow, the only problem we have now is both are vying for Bella's attention.

 

Thanks so much,

Eric and April Prince

Hi DBT and DBT,

 

Just a quick update on Duke (Chiquita/Freckles litter).  He just turned 3!  He is the most friendliest and loveable lapdog I have ever had.  Actually, he is more like a parrot than a lapdog because he loves to sit on top of the couch and nestle his head and neck on your shoulder while he sleeps!  Day Boston Terriers will always be our first choice when choosing another companion (hopefully Duke will live forever though). 

 

Sincerely,

 

Melissa Q.

Hi DBT and DBT!

We just wanted to give you an update on Swirls aka Finnegan. He is absolutely delightful and amazing! He is the sweetest boy--so lovable and cuddly. We definitely see a lot of Annabelle in him, he loves his stuffed toys (even though he destroys them in about 20 minutes), he's obsessed with the Chuck It, and especially loves kisses (particularly giving them!) 

Also, we have been thinking about getting Finn a brother or sister sometime this next winter. Can you keep us updated on any possible litters from Annabelle in the near future?

We've attached a few pictures of him for you.

Thanks so much,
Meghan and Brian Orth

Katie liked the name Lilly, so we kept it and it stuck. It has been three plus years and she is doing great.  Here are some pics.  So glad you brought her to us!

Hey DBT,

I thought you might enjoy a few pictures of our boy Diego (Jonas from Chiquita x Texas) that we got from you and Linda.  He’s getting big!  Now Chiquita’s name is more appropriate.  They are both doing very well. 

Take care.

 

 

***************************************************************

DBT,
 
    Here is the proof of nuetering and a few pictures of Hogan (formerly Dominoe).  My wife, daughter, and I just love having Hogan here as part of our family.  He really is a great dog, despite the awful smells he produces...haha.  You were definitely right about that.  He has grown up to be quite handsome and is currently 21 pounds.  He is also very smart...although his energy gets the best of him at times.  He is very athletic and loves to fetch toys (he has done this since he first came home), go for walks, and play with our three cats.  He is also very good with our 2-year-old daughter. 
    So we wanted to say thank you for giving us a great dog and family member.
 
Thanks again,
 
Ryan, Angela, and Riley Cramer

DBT,

 

Please find attached Kona's (formerly Tiney Tot of Buttons' and Texas Strickland's 06/20/08 litter) spay receipt as well as a few pictures. I would've attached more (she's just so photogenic) but I don't want to flood your inbox! She's doing great and is such a blessing in my life. She loves going to the park and insists on greeting every single doggie and human there, and I always get compliments on her conformation. I work in the construction industry and am lucky enough to get to take her to work with me; it's great seeing how she can instantly melt the heart of any burly construction worker as soon they see her! She's a total snuggle bunny and loves giving kisses as much as she like getting them. She's so smart, playful, and spunky - and cute to boot! Thank you so much for not only bringing Kona into my life but also for all the work you guys do ensuring that you breed puppies not only of great health, but great temperament too. I will definitely keep in touch; I'm hoping to get Kona a little brother soon!

 

Best Regards,

Hi DBT!

 

I just wanted to send you a quick update on my darling, Harley!  He will be 2 years old on August 16th and is the baby of Nikki Strickland and Boyfriend Day (when I got him, his name was Ben).

 

Harley continues to be the most amazing, fabulous, smart, incredible dog in the world.  He's known by our family and friends as Harley the Wonder Dog - because he's just that great.  His gentle temperament, sweet disposition and good behavior have my friends convinced that we hired a professional dog trainer for him.  Nope!!  That's just the way he is... he's just perfect.

 

Here's a few pictures of him - handsome as ever.  We love him so much!

 

Thanks!

Hi Sara and DBT,

Here are a few pictures of Kobe (a.k.a Marcus of Roxy and Elvis, born on May 13th 08).

I just mailed you his neuter papers. Thank you soo much for doing such a good job with these dogs, every Day Boston Terrier I know is a perfect dog, awesome personality, healty and great looking.. Kobe is a love-a-bug,  We go to the park every day with 2 other DBT Mojo and Rupert from Corvina litter.

Again, Thank you.

Do you think you could e-mail me the pics of Kobe in the first 2months??? just if you still have them.

Hi DBT,

It's Kathryn Green here!  My boyfriend and I adopted "Zoe" in the spring of this year!  We have named her Lilly and she is absolutely amazing!  She is so cuddly and loves to sleep under the covers with her head on the pillow.  She loves her tummy rubbed in the morning and cant get enough of all our toys.  She is absolutely beautiful and has an awesome personality.  All the other boston terriers we meet are no where near as cute as her and her personality is so much better than the others we meet.  Must be all the great genes you breed!  We are looking to get another puppy in the next year or so and would love to get another one from you guys if you are still up and running then!  We will definitely keep in touch!  I'm attaching some pictures so you can see our little girl...she is about 7 months now!

 

Take Care,

Hi DBT and DBT-
I was just on your website reading all the wonderful testimonials and after reading one, remembered that you wanted pictures and shot information after some months. I completely forgot about this. Is it too late? Do you send papers that are related to the birth?

Dirk and I took home Gabby last October--she was initially named Penny and was born to Kirbee Day and Gabe on 8.4.07. I saw her sibling on the site, which was really cool.

She is doing really well, completely healthy and just an amazing, adorable dog.
Let me know what I should do.

Thanks!

Well I hope my first mom Alice is doing well please say hello for me and know I have one of the best homes I could have ever gotten .They really treat me like royalty around here and I just love it. I'll write more soon but my keys are calling me.

Hi DBT and DBT,

 

Well it will be 4 years come January we brought Miles/FKA Clifford home. The boy of Molly and Hoover. Current pictures of Miles are attached.

 

Miles is an active lovey boy. He loves fetching his ball bringing it back to us and going after it again. That's his favorite game to play. He is such a wonderful part of our family. He is such a baby and loves being right next to us.  Our 5 year old daughter calls him her baby and boy boy!  Those two really have a special bond.

 

Not only does he have a wonderful disposition and is a very smart, loyal, and a loving baby...he has been SO HEALTHY! He will be 4 December 7th and we have not had any illness or problems with him. Thank you!

 

We are looking forward to adding another wonderful puppy to our family in the future.

Thanks again.

Hi DBT,

It is about time we gave you a status update on Dylan (kennel name was Billy - from Molley Strickland and Freckles).  We have had a wonderful experience with Dylan.  The first few weeks were a challenge as Dylan adjusted to the sleeping arrangements and learned where the back yard is.  Next came the stairs.  Going up wasn’t too difficult, going down led to fun times.  Now he is big enough to jump up on the couch which has opened up a whole new world for him.  If someone is on the couch, so is Dylan.  There was also a period of adjustment while Floyd (kennel name was Princess Sophia) and Dylan learned each other’s boundaries, but now they are quite entertaining when they wrestle.  Dylan is now larger than Floyd (approx. 22 pounds) and still growing.  He is curious, almost to a dangerous extent, and loves to get rough.

I’ve attached some pictures we took while Dylan grew.  I still remember him as a puppy that fit in one hand and I’m amazed at how fast he has grown (and at how much food he eats).

Also attached is the receipt from when he was neutered.

Thanks for a great experience with our first puppy!

Jeremy, Kelly, and Floyd (Princess Sophia).

Hi DBT and DBT...

Hope all is well!  I thought you might get a kick out of this picture so I wanted to send it. 

The picture is of Sox (taken yesterday), formerly known as Fischer born to Annabelle and Brave on Sept. 11, 2006. 

It was his second bday yesterday so we celebrated ;-).  BTW, he is doing very well, very spoiled, quite the love bug and a very big boy!

Enjoy,

Hi,

This is Mimi and Brian, who bought 'Juno' back in May. We just wanted to let you know how unbelievably grateful we are to have him in our lives. We named him Murphy, and he is the best thing that has ever happened to us. He is a quick learner, and picked up on the potty training with ease. He seems to love everyone he meets, kids, adults other dogs. He never barks, and is very generous with the kisses. Here are a few pictures of Murphy. Again, Thank you so much, and keep up the great work of raising such amazing dogs.

Dear DBT & DBT,

 

As I write this, Lee is getting the kids ready for bed.  They have been out for their evening "relief", then put into our big king-size bed.  We bring them their last final treat for the evening -- freeze-dried liver treats.  Then, as a final courtesy, a bowl of fresh water for the last sip of the evening.  Zeke will position himself next to Lee when he gets into bed and proceed to wash his face, ears, and neck.  This is an evening ritual.  Zoey will crawl up under the covers next to my legs.

 

Tomorrow they will wake up, have breakfast with Nutro Max, sprinkled with cooked chicken pieces.  Then they'll go for a mile walk with Mama (after giving Daddy kisses good bye), come back and have some play time before Mama has to go to work.  Before Mama leaves, Zeke will willing go into his crate and wait for his "nap time treats"  Zoey will grab a tennis ball, hoping Mama will play with her for just a few more throws.  Then they'll each get half a natural food stick (with veggies, chicken and minerals and vitamins) and Mama will give them kisses, tell them she loves them and will be back soon.  The message Mama gives them every morning during work weeks is always the same.  The love they give and receive is constant.

 

Lee and I fully realize this is not the case for many dogs.  I feel compelled to write this and hope that you post it on your Web site.  September 20th is National Puppy Mill Awareness Day.  I will be baking natural dog biscuits and selling them with a friend at an art gallery in Bernalillo, New Mexico whose world-famous artist loves dogs and supports the Animal Humane Association of New Mexico.  I feel convicted to do something that day because recently I read a book called A Reason To Love, which chronicles the horrors that go on in puppy mills across the country.  The author, Jana Kohl (of Kohl Department Store family) rescued a female used in puppy mill breeding just days before she was to be killed.  The abuse she encountered for 8 years of her life left her bones so brittle, that jumping off a sofa resulted, after 3 attempts at vets healing her, with her front leg amputated.  Jana and Baby now tour the country, visit Congress members and plead and implore city and state governments to take action against puppy mill breeders whose only concern is to make a buck.

 

Somewhere, as you're reading this, a little Boston Terrier cowers in the corner of a dirty, filthy cage.  No one comes to pick him up.  No one nuzzles his face and gives (and receives) his kisses.  His mama is thin and tired, from being overbred.  The water in the cage bowl (if any) is loaded with feces.  The food bowl is covered with bugs.  The stench is unbelievable.  The crimes against canines are committed behind crudely constructed buildings with poor circulation.  The Web sites depict sweet happy faces, but nothing could be farther than the truth.  Precious little Bostons, born in these conditions, then ripped from their mothers at 3 - 4 weeks of age to be shipped off in mass to pet stores.

 

DBT, we thank God every day that we found you and Day Boston Terriers.  We have such wonderful, beautiful, healthy, well-dispositioned Bostons.  Zoey & Zeke are so precious to us, I cannot even begin to express the love Lee and I feel for them.  We constantly get compliments from people in the park, in our neighborhood.  Every one knows us .. well, they know Zoey &  Zeke ... and just looking at them brings smiles to people's faces.  Family members laugh at the attention, time and devotion we give to Zoey & Zeke, but we will be the first to acknowledge we are certifiably nuts about our Bostons. 

 

We want you, and others who visit your site, to know that your efforts to breed health, happy, well-adjusted dogs are not for naught.  They are admirable and should be copied by other so-called breeders around the country.  The standards you set are not too high.  The price paid when there are no standards by breeders is too gruesome and great.  Too many people don't care about the dogs and treat them as mass production breeding machines.  Too many pet stores sell Boston Terriers for twice what you charge, and the health and hurdles these puppies must overcome is tremendous.

 

We celebrate your diligence in excellent breeding.  We applaud the hours of care, attention and love you give to your breeding females and males, and the sweet, precious Boston babies they produce.  We plead with every single person who might visit your site, who is considering a Boston, to do the research carefully and not purchase one from a pet store.  This only perpetuates the puppy mill factories and the atrocities committed there every day.

 

I'll keep baking and selling dog biscuits to help support the organizations that shelter abused dogs and diligenty fight to close down puppy mills.  I hope more people will do the same.  And we will keep singing your praises and recommending people to your kennel for as long as you are in business.

 

For the love of dogs (and Bostons),

Pam, Lee, Zoey & Zeke

Hi DBT and DBT,

I wanted to let you know that Rico (Tonto) from Tink and Elvis's litter was neutered on Friday and is doing great. The vet says he was a great patient and seems to be well recovered. He weighs 21 pounds now at only 6 months old! He is so big and strong.

ChaCha (Carly) from Annabelle and Presley's litter is doing great as well. At four months old she is about 11 pounds. She gets along great with Rico and they have a blast together taking long walks and getting plenty of exercise playing in our yard and pool. They are doing well with basic training too. Rico knows, sit, stay, come, look, wait, shake, high five, leave it, quit, go potty and we are working on "roll-over". Cha Cha is learning well too. They walk well on the leash and are great with people. They want to say "hi" to everyone they meet.

I want to thank you both for working so hard  to help bring such great dogs into the world. These two are just the best. This has been a very challenging time for us as a family as our son is very ill. To have two such lovable and sweet natured puppies in our home has really brought sunshine into our lives. Every day I am thankful to have them here. They seem pretty happy too!

I hope things are going well with you all and that DBT is feeling better. I am attaching some pictures of the pups and I am snail mailing you a copy of the invoice for the neutering so you can send us the final paperwork.

I'll let you know about Cha Cha's spaying in a couple of months.

Thanks again.

Jeannette Le Chevallier 

PS Cha Cha's ears are standing up now!

Attached are recent pictures of Chloe! She's having a great summer, running around in our backyard, chasing flies, and eating whatever she can find.  At night she always cuddles on the couch with us and then sleeps in between us under the covers.  We're really enjoying her!!

 

Hope you are having a great summer!

Hi DBT,

 

At last, attached are pics of Dottie!!! (aka Rose from TInk's/Presley's litter 2/11/08). We took these last night. It was very challenging because she was so curious about the camera and of course the flash didn't help. They really don't do her justice, she's actually even cuter! I'll have to take some pics outside during the day and send those along.

 

She can be a little devil, but we love her to pieces. 99% of the time she is a real sweetie and she's super smart. She was afraid at puppy play the first time, now she runs the show. She was fixed and we had her dewclaws removed on July 3rd (I mailed you the documentation last week). On July 3rd, she weighed in between 12 - 13 pounds (she wouldn't hold still on the scale, she's so wiggly!).We're still working on our training and she still has the occassional accident in the house, but as I mentioned we're inclosing the patio area, so she'll have more room to play and do her business. We should be done with the fence this weekend. I think this will resolve our accidents. She thinks she can just get up from a sit or a down or walk away from a stay whenever she feels like it, so mom needs more training than Dottie.She also makes the cutest snorting noises and snores like a trucker. I can't take her for a walk without at least 2-3 people stopping to pet her because she's so cute, I try to get her to sit in order to get petted, but she'll only sit of a second and then she freaks out with excitement and pees!

 

Thanks for all your help and I'll send more pics down the road soon. Anxious to see updates on the rest of her siblings.

 

Thanks,

 

Kim

Hi DBT and DBT,

Here is an updated picture of Toby and Sophie at almost 6 months old.

 

Once I have a chance, I will send a "family" photo with a full doggy update... so you can post on your website as with other letters and photos of dogs.

 

We nicknamed them "Toto" and "Fifi" for which fits their very different but wonderful personalities.  Toby is very smart and still looks straight into your eyes and is always following us around and concerned about what we do.  Sophie on the other hand is a little spitfire that does her own thing and antagonizes Toby... but is very sweet too!  Both of their markings are beautiful... and personalities are exactly what we wanted and they compliment each other...as well as they go everywhere together...inseparable!

 

Ciao and hope all is well?

Dan and Courtney

DBT,
Here are a couple pics of Wilbur (Wilbur from Pebbles litter Feb 13th) and Mazie (Dottie from Nikki's litter April 4th).  Wilbur is very smart and curious.  He loves to explore the world and meet new people.  Mazie is very cuddly and kissy.  She likes to play hide and seek under the beds and couches and loves to follow Wilbur wherever he goes. 
We hope you guys are having a nice summer.
Robin and Peg

Hello, I am sending all papers from our Vet. with regards to Mickey(D.O.B.11/16/07)
He has just been Neutered this past Friday and the confirmation and all services on
record will be forthcoming. I assume the proper Microchip Number for Mickey is;
934 C3D 2907 and his Limited Registration Papers will be sent by snail or email.
He is a very loving guy and although he snores like a teamster with sinus problems
he is welcome to sleep with either of us as his whim dictates. He is healthy and
wants to play non stop. He is busy training us and will soon have us under his control completely.
I am enclosing some pictures of Mickey from puppy to 5 months.
Thank you again for breeding such a wonderful housemate,
Ray Etzler and Gary Rashid.

Hi DBT,

 

Greetings from Texas!  I hope you are doing well.  It has been a long time since I have contacted you but I wanted to let you know how well Taz is doing. Taz ("Petey" born on July 11, 2006 from Reba and Brave) is doing wonderfully. He is an amazing, smart dog and full of energy! He definitely lives up to his name.  He has become another member of the family, even sleeping with us at night. Sometimes we all argue over whose bed he is going to sleep in because he loves to snuggle!  Thanks so much for an incredible dog.

 

Alison Ashbury and Family

 

P.S. I also wanted to thank you for flying him out to us. I know you usually require families to pick up their dogs in person, but we really appreciate you making an exception for us. Attached are some pictures of Taz. Please let me know if you can't open the files.

Hi DBT and DBT!

How are you?  I am writing to give you an update on Jon Bee from Annabelle and Elvis’ litter.  We named him Hank.  He is doing great!  We moved from San Francisco to Kansas City back in February.  Hankie really liked the snow!  We were in a moving van for three days and he just sat on top of his carrier and was a complete angel the entire trip!  He is a great traveling dog, and is always so good in the car!

Hank will be 7 months old in less than a week and he weighs 17 lbs.  We had him neutered yesterday and he did great.  After the anesthesia wore off you would never have known he had surgery.  Where can I fax the papers to you?

He is doing great with the potty training, he goes outside almost all the time now.  He can hold it all night and when we occasionally get home late from work he holds it all day!  He can sit, stay, and lie down, and shake hands.  All without puppy classes!  We’re going to sign him up now that he’s been neutered.  I’ve never known such a smart puppy!

He does some silly things, like he always wants to chew his toys on my feet, and when we take him outside he slides through the grass like a snake.  It is hysterical!  He loves other people and dogs.  We are staying with my Mom until we find a house out here and she has two Yorkies.  They didn’t like him very much at first but he keeps trying to bring them his toys and stuff so they are coming around.  He and the female play tug of war with a stuffed puppy and it’s the funniest thing!

Once he settles down a little bit I’d love to get a little sister for him from you.  He is so energetic that he really needs a playmate. 

I’ve attached some pictures that I took from my camera phone, I apologize if they’re a little fuzzy.

Thank you so much for helping me find the perfect dog and my new best friend!

Take care,

Jenny and Hank

 

 

Hi DBT and DBT:

Dear Day Boston Terriers!

I just wanted to send a note to you to let you know how our guy that we got from you is doing! We brought Kirby Day home to Washington in December of 2006...his name here with us is Tucker. He is such a joy to have and our family wouldn't be the same without him! He is such a well-behaved guy and so sweet and loving. Everywhere we go people are always stopping us to admire him and love him (and get a kiss from him)! Thank you so much for this special doggy!!

Kendal Canaday and Dana Smith & kids and Tucker!

Dearest DBT,

Sweet Annabelle and handsome Elvis did a great job producing this litter because Brody, aka "Winston," is absolutely wonderful. I am writing you to let you know that my husband, William, and I just had Brody neutered this past Monday, and already, he's feeling much better and running around the house with his sister, Pepper, as I write this e-mail. Born on October 12th, 2007, he is now approximately 5 1/2 months and weighs 20-21 pounds. It's strange because "Winston" and his twin "JonBee" were the smallest out of litter. I believe he still has much more growing to do. What do you think? Also, Brody has much bully and extra skin all over his body, which I think he inherited from Annabelle. Strangely enough, whenever we go to our local dog park, he doesn't care too much about playing with the other dogs but rather go up and greet all the humans there! He is very good about not jumping or licking people's faces unless he knows he is welcomed. Also, I would like to mention that he is VERY passive and laid back as you mentioned in his description; he lets Pepper dominate everything and doesn't mind this one bit. Don't let his charm fool you; he does have a rebel, mischievous side like running away from me with an ink pen in his mouth and getting the ink all over my light suede couches, haha. He is quite a character, and we are blessed to have the opportunity to adopt Brody into our lives and into our family :-).

Let us know what else we need to do to get his papers. I have attached some adorable pictures of my little man. I hope you enjoy them!

Sincerely,

Landee & William

Dear DBT and DBT,
 
We just wanted to write and let you know how much we love Walter! He's been an amazing dog since the first day we brought him home. People stop us all the time because he's so adorable, and he's incredibly friendly with every dog and person we meet. He's also great with kids! Thank you for breeding such a loving, healthy, well-adjusted companion.
 
Walter was born Labor Day weekend 2006, son of Corvina and Brave. He's a year and a half now and weighs 25 pounds.
 
We're happy to serve as references. We already refer people to you all the time! Thank you again.
 
Best wishes,
Brendan and Rebecca Cullen

DBT,

We just wanted to let you know how proud we are of Dolly!!! That was her kennel name when we picked her up 2 years ago. We loved the name & just let her keep it. She is the sweetest, most adorable little critter on earth!!! She weighs around 14 lbs & is very petite. She loves sleeping in the bed with her mom.  I hope the photo I have attached comes through, because you just have to see how pretty & adorable she really is. She loves living in Reno!!!! Thanks for everything!!!

Sincerely,

The Rabons in Reno

Hi DBT,

 

I just wanted to write to let you know how happy we are with Ralph (AKA Kibbles from Lucy and Bam Bam's litter).  He is just such a wonderful little dog, we can't say enough good things about him.  He is so intelligent, sweet, comical, and just so darn adorable.  He weighed in at 11lbs last time we were at the vet but now we think he's up to 13 at a little more than 4 months old.  We think he will be a pretty big boy but he's very tall, lean and muscular like you his father, like you predicted.  We just can't tell you what joy Ralph has brought to our lives.  He has become such a wonderful addition to our family and we enjoy taking him to as many places as we can.  He is always a perfect gentleman when we go out and he completed his first puppy class at the SPCA where he was a favorite of the staff and other dogs and dog owners.  He just loves making friends with people and other dogs and I always feel proud to take him out because I know he will behave wonderfully.  His coat is just as soft and shiny as before with the most beautiful golden brown brindleing coming through.  His ears are adorable and floppy which we think makes him that much more special and unique.  Thanks you so much for bringing this wonderful animal into our lives.  I attached a few pics from when he was 3 months old to today.

 

Sincerely,

 

Abbie and Jeff

 

P.S.  Do you know if any of Ralph's littermates live in the bay area?  If so it would be awesome if you could pass along my email address to them so perhaps we could re-unite.

Just wanted to let you know, Scooter is the center of our lives!  He is doing wonderful - so smart...ok, too smart... and so cute and funny, always wanting to be with us - WE LOVE HIM so much!  He is 4 months today and at his last visit to the vet he was at 8 lb 10 oz...that was on the 9th... he goes tomorrow for another round of shots and I know he must weigh more.  We have enrolled him in puppy school...he is one of the best students there.  I KNOW HE KNOWS when to be 'on' and when he can 'goof off' - he knows when others are watching and really struts his stuff...he is definitely a favorite with the handlers and the instructor!  One of the ladies calls him 'Boston Boy' and just giggles when she see him!  He is a star!  I feel like a fumbling fool at times, but he figures out the task before I do!  Who is training who...??

Thank you so much for doing what you do!  Scooter is a healthy, well-adjusted, confidant and fabulous breed of a dog.  He is a member of our family!  - by the way his coat is still as silky as it was as an 8 week old!  just the slightest bit of (red-dark brown) brindle in the sun, and it shines like nothing else!  absolutely stunning!  Hope all is well...tell Lucy and BamBam great job!  his eyes look blue in the picture, but they are shiny, melt-your-heart brown & black!  thanks, Robin Hampton
