I can’t believe that Barney is 6 months old already. He is growing up to be a really big and absolutely beautiful boy (no bias of course! Ha ha ha). I constantly have people stop us at the park and at the beach asking questions about him. They can’t get over his colour and I constantly hear comments like “He just doesn’t look real!” One lady at the beach said that he looked like “Mr Snuffleupagus” from Sesame Street! Another person said that he looks exactly like “The Bear in the Big Blue House”. I think they are actually both right! He really is like a Teddy Bear come to life. The girls at work are completely obsessed with him! They want me to give him his own Instagram Page “The Life of Barney”!! ha ha ha ha. (Luckily for Barney I don’t do social media ha ha ha ha) It’s now a bit of a running joke in the office.
My daughter Georgie suffers from Anxiety and he has been THE BEST thing for her! He helps her feel “safe” in our home at night time (especially when Craig is away travelling for work). She sleeps in the bed with me and he sleeps either on the bed next to her or on the floor next to her. Dogs are amazing how they “Just Know”.
He forces her to speak to new people when we are out and about and she is more than happy to talk to everyone about her puppy! Ha ha ha
He truly is a blessing and was definitely meant to be part of our family. ? ❤. Alison
Quincy is doing amazing. He is such an awesome little fella. He was so well behaved from the start and already toilet trained. He has taken to our dog door with ease and loves running outside for a bone, but only when we say he can. He is amazing with food, he took to the training so well he will leave his favourite treat at his feet and look at us for the command to eat and can wait for as long as we say. Different story for socks though, he loves nabbing them. Thank you so much for letting him become part of our family and he is so good with other dogs and kids, luckily as we will soon be bringing home our own litter of two identical boys! Matt.
We are just writing to let you know what a beautiful dog Charlie (MARIANA puppy 6) is.
He settled in quickly and is already a much loved member of our family. He is exactly the kind of dog we wanted – friendly, affectionate, smart, and chilled-but-lively. He really is adorable.
Now that he is fully vaccinated we are enjoying getting out and about with him. He loves the bush and the beach (though doesn’t really like the water yet).
We are finding him very responsive to training using positive reinforcement methods but we are starting a Dutchfield dog training (Bunbury) course which lots of people have recommended to us.
We found all the advice you sent prior to getting him really helpful and have pretty much followed it to the letter. He slept next to our bed as you suggested for the first few weeks and has made the transition to his bed on the veranda without any fuss. During the day he spends most of the time with one or both of us close by, but we’ve also been able to leave him home alone without any bother. He eats the Natural Balance food you recommended and is growing fast.
We don’t crate him and have no intention of doing so – crating wasn’t a ‘thing’ when we had dogs in the past and we are really surprised at how common it is these days. We are so glad you advised against it as people now seem to take for granted that it is a good thing. However, it goes against all our instincts so it is good to be able to say ‘his breeder advises against crating’.
I’m so happy to write to you today, to let you know how much joy our Jazz has brought into our hearts our home and family, he is such a wonderful, smart, caring, loyal, gentle boy.
He has given us little to no trouble, he doesn’t dig, or chew, his only naughtiness would be his over Joy’s greeting people, he loves to jump up, but as he gets older he’s maturing so well and his over jumping is lessening.
I’m such an over proud mum, he is now an accredited Story Dog, as of next term, we will be in the classroom helping the children enjoy reading.
He is such a friendly dog both with humans and other dogs both small and large including a Dingo, he is the favourite at the dog park, Jazz is loved by all.
