Hi Danny and Darla,

I wanted to send you a few photos of Jacoby and Sydnee. It has been a week now, and he is so lovable.
Still won't sleep through the night, but he is already scratching at the door to go out. We have had very few accidents. He went to the vet this past Friday, and passed with flying colors. He weighed in at 10.2 lbs.

Thanks again for him, and we'll keep in touch.

Hello this is Kyle and Krystal,
Here are some pictures of Zoey. She is doing very well, she does not sleep through the night quite yet
but she does sleep alot during the day. She is pretty lazy right now, but it getting along with the other
dogs just fine. Thank you so much for this wonderful addition to our family.

Hello Danny and Darla,
We have Jacoby. Yahooo! He is beautiful. Such a good boy. I met with Suzie and Ernie around 4:30 on Saturday.
To see the brothers together was nice but sad. They were sleeping on top of each other when we were getting
ready to come home. He woke up every few hours last night, Sydnee talked him back to sleep. And then he
decided to play rooster and wake up at 4am and stay awake until 6:30. Did his morning business, came in and played, had his breakfast, and finished his business outside again. Well done. He met a bunch of people last
night and was never once nervous or shy. He's a ham. He has the need to pick up and eat everything he sees
when he's outside. Mulch, grass, leaves, flower heads, dirt, rocks...It's like I never fed him.
Thank you so much for this puppy. He is so stinkin' adorable.
I will be in touch with you now and again to give you an update on his take-over of our home.

Take care
Melissa & Sydnee (& Jacoby)

Hi Danny and Darla-
I love the pictures of the new puppies. Your dogs are just beautiful. We are just updating with picture of Maya.
She is the greatest dog ever and we love her so much. She is so much fun and loving. Her favorite things to do
are eat, sleep, and fetch. She loves to cuddle up with us on the couch with a blanket while we watch movies. She really enjoys the water and is an awesome little swimmer. But she absolutely loves to fetch. She brings back
the ball and sits and stares until someone throws the ball. We had to buy the chuck-it so that we could
throw the ball further away, lol.

Thank you so much for bringing her into our family.
Nancy and Andres

Dear Danny and Darla,
The time has come to let you see pictures of what handsome Kiefer's boy looks like! He is of show quality. He is easy-going, loves everyone he meets, and trots proudly in the yard. He has the perfect head, scissors bite,
full eye trim, dark brown eyes, perfect hearing, perfect spotting, perfect color on nose leather. What more
could I ask for! He will start puppy kindergarten classes at 12 weeks after being fully immunized, and then
some practice dog shows! Your sire, Kiefer, really produces nice progeny! It was nice that you sent
me more pics of Kiefer awhile back when I asked for them, and I was very happy at the professionalism of the people I got the pup from. They gave me AKC papers on demand, and a full report from the vet of his health and immunizations. Here are a couple pics of Kiefer's little guy!
Sincerely, Steph Kutsch

Hi Danny & Darla,

Hope you and all the puppies are doing well.  It's been awhile since we sent any photo's of Lacey
so I thought I'd forward some to you.

Lacey is doing great!  She's such a good, sweet dog.  We love her immensely. 
She got a lot bigger than I thought she would.  She's pretty tall and weighs 55 1/2 lbs.!  She's very healthy and
happy. We're so thankful to have found you guys and that Lacey became a part of our family.

Best wishes,
Lynn & Dan

Hi Darla and Danny,

wow what a big beautiful boy with perfect body proportions.  I can't wait for my puppy sired by him.  He looks like my big Dal boy I adopted back in 1992.  He was 26 inches at the withers!  He was a gentle monster.  I've adopted retired show dog dalamtians and now i'm ready for a puppy.  I've become so disillusioned from these show off breeders that show.  I ask them politely for a show quality dal but If I'm not a handler or gonna show the dog for sure under contrast rules they wont give me a dog!  I've even offered extra monely in addition to what they wanted!  I figure, I just want an AKC nice looking Dal and Boneskennel was very nice to me, and decided to buy from Janine.

 I'm so glad Kiefer sired!  Your Kinser is also a big beautiful boy!  I love your web-site so much!!!  Good job with it!  I loved ;looking at all the pics of your dogs and kids. Your dogs look spoiled!  he he! lovely!

Thanks!

Steph

Afternoon Danny and Darla,
Sprinkles here. I am not really typing this I am
just trying to bite the key board cause it makes a funny noise when you push
on them little buttons, I think they call the keys or some thing like that.
I just wanted to write to you to tell ya I am doing great, I get into
trouble some times but I am still a little puppy, well not so little any
more. I had my six months check up and boy I am gaining weight, I weigh 47
pounds now, but I can still run and chase my ball, untill my dad and mom and
tired, but I want to keep going. I also found out when I was at the doctors
that I had a spot on my eye, that Mom and dad were all worried about, but it
turns out that it is a blue spot and the doctor said I might end up with a
blue eye, now how cool is that. I hope all is well with you and my dalmatian
family, but I have to run now cause it is my diner time and I am hungry just
like always, until next time,

Ron & Pat Buskirk and yes me too, Sprinkles
PS: Here is a picture of me getting a sun tan in the sun room.

Hi Danny and Darla, Just wanted to stop by and say Hi. ZuZu is doing great. She has a new sister named Chloe.
She is a White German Shepherd, same as our 2 year old Callie. ZuZu is going to think she is one! We went to Westminster this year and I have to say, all the Dalmatians competing were not as pretty as a Double D Dalmatian.
I was looking at your photo gallery #2. I saw that you had ZuZu in it and it meant so much to me. When we came
there we could tell how special she was to you guys. I cannot thank you enough for her. She sleeps in my bed and I must tell her I love her about 30 times a day. Today, she's a year and a half. She's so young but I feel like she has been with us forever. My grandfather passed away in March and ZuZu has helped me so much.
She's just the best dog I have ever had. If you're upset she knows exactly what to do to cheer you up.
Anyway, I am rambling. I just wanted to say Hi, give you an update, and hope all is well.
Thank you so much, Suzanne Innamorato

Hello,
Just wanted to send some new pics. Katy is getting big! She had her first day at the beach last week and loved it!
She didn't pay much attention to the ocean, but loved running around in the sand and picking up shells.
She's been teething. Her big brother Chance has been licking her gums. Its sweet but kind of gross at the
same time - lol! As you can see from the first picture, they love taking over our couch. Chance even lets
her steal bones from him - not chewies or cookies though - just bones. He was getting a litte tubby before
Katy came along and now he's nice and trim from all the exercise.

Have a great weekend! :)

Danny and Darla,
Siren is now just over 9 months (DOB 06/13/09) old and doing wonderful. She has completed Obedience I
and begins Obedience II in two weeks. When she completes her Obedience II,
she will be testing for her AKC Canine Good Citizen. The instructors are very pleased with her calm and gentle nature.
They see her being the first Dalmatian in our area as a Therapy Dog.

On the flip side... she loves tearing up her toys... She just spent a full day at the veterinarian for a partial bowel obstruction. The Barium treatment worked just fine. The object ended up being a devoured tennis ball.
Now she has a basketball to play with...

Speaking of ball games... Siren is tired of this March Madness and is ready for the REAL ball games to begin.
See the attached photo's.

Hope all is going well for you and your family.

Thanks again for our incredible Dalmatian.

Anthony, Debbie, and Siren...

Hi Danny & Darla,
Just an update on Chloe Ray, she is doing well growing into a beautiful dog..
She is a little head strong and thinks everything has to be her way.
We couldn't be any happier with her, she's just a sweetheart.
The woman that decided not to take Chloe missed out on a very nice best friend
and that was lucky for us because, she is a perfect fit for my wife and I.

Morning Danny and Darla..
Just thought you might like to see how big Sprinkles is getting, she is growing like a weed. Her new thing now is every morning around six thirty she looks out the front window for the grand daughter and even does it on the weekends when she does not come and then she runs around the house trying to find her. I don't know who wears who out cause when the grand daughter goes home about noon Sprinkles runs to the bed room, jumps
up on the bed and you don't hear another thing out of her till time for her to have diner.

Ron, Patty and Sprinkles too.

Hey.. This is Miranda
and about a year ago my family bought one of your dalmations.. Slider O' Shea..
He's now turned one and I remember last Valentine's Day was the first time we ever saw Slider..
Thank You so much for such a wonderful puppy!
Slider is happy, healthy, and gives our family alot of laughs, fun times, and memories..
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Danny and Darla

..Just to let you know Sprinkles is doing great. Her
newest thing that she learned by herself is when she wants to go out or eat,
she sits in front of you and holds up her paw. Have no idea how she learned
this. She does sit, sit up and when you say time for bed, she runs to the
bedroom and is up o...n the bed and under the covers before you even get
there. I just put up a video of her from this past Sunday playing in the
snow or maybe I should say running and hopping in it.

Ron, Patty and Sprinkles too.

Dear Danny and Darla,

Thought I would share a few more pictures. Bailey is such a sweetheart - very affectionate and funny. Molly and Bailey have adjusted very well to each other. Right now they are sleeping together in their doggy bed. You can see from the first picture why Rosemary calls him Bunny. Sometimes when his ears are flapping he looks like a little rabbit.

Thanks again, Jerry and Rosemary

I wanted to send an updated picture of Dottie. We brought her home 2 years ago and is a very special dog.
She is quite spoiled and knows everyone in the neighborhood. I must say she is a very loving and playful dog.
Please see the picture attached.

Hi Dan & Darla,
Katy is doing well. She eats like a horse and is getting big! She's 22lbs now. Her and Chance play all the time.
He really takes a beating from her! She jumps up and punches him with her paws. He's so big that sometimes she bounces off - lol. She's learning some signs - no, come, and sit. She definitely knows what 'no' means and she doesn't like it - she lays down with a big 'huff' - lol. She loves people and makes new friends whenever we go on walks. She's a popular girl. :)

Hi guys:

Just to let you know that Jake (your Kinser) is doing well.
He’s definitely the alpha dog but he seems very intelligent and is learning his lessons very well.
Our granddaughters can’t get enough of him.
Hope you’re doing well, and thanks for the DVD.
I’ll send you a DVD of Jake in a few weeks.

Danny and Darla,
Thank you for the Christmas card. I hope that you had a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year!
You gave us the best gift this year, Ember. She has brought us such joy to our lives!

We decided to name her Ember Rose Nyx. She is very well mannered and loves to be close to us.
She loves to cuddle and will kiss you clean. Everywhere that we go people comment on how beautiful
she is and we owe that to you. She loves to play with other animals and children. She loves to run on
Justin's family farm and play by the river shore. She can play for hours!!! She has learned several tricks
(sit, lay down, shake and high five.) We had decided not to crate her and she doing amazing,
no messes and my shoes are still in one piece.

I have sent you several pictures. The first two are from the first day we brought her home. I happen to do photography on the side so the next three were taken for our wall. The last three are from a walk that we
took on the farm, this past weekend. Toward the end Ember became tired so Justin carried her for a little while.

We thank you from the bottom of out hearts for our baby! She is our world and
we wouldn't have it any other way! We often think of the other one...
did you ever find a home for her?

With much thanks, Misty and Justin

Dear Danny and Darla,
Bailey is doing very well. Yesterday we had several accidents but so far today he seems to have gotten the routine down very well. He gets along well with Molly. He is so cute and affectionate and showers us with lots of kisses! He is already spoiled and sleeps on the bed. He doesn't like the crate too much but lucky for him he doesn't have
to be in in much unless we go out. He is getting better on the leash too! Here are some cute pictures.

Darla, what kind of shampoo do you use? He smells so good!

Thanks for caring for him so well.

Danny and Darla, Hope your Christmas was full of joy and happiness.
Just to give you an update, Siren has graduated from "Puppy Kindergarden" and is scheduled for Obedience
1 in January. Her instructors were very impressed with her skills. They are amazed with her temperament...
calm and very submissive. They want her to work towards her Good Citizenship this summer.
I have attached a couple photos for you... she loves to hide bones in the yard and wasn't going
to give up finding the bone today... even though the snow was coming down at 1 inch per hour....
Now that she found it.. lets play in the snow...
We will keep in touch... love the commercial and calendar...
thanks.. all three of us wish you both a safe and happy New Year.

Hi.
Hope everyone is doing OK. Thanks for the card. We tried to watch the dvd but couldn't do it.
I sent it to my sisters to see if they could watch it on their computer or dvd player. Otis sounds like a smart dog
and Darla sounds like a good trainer. Personally though, I doubt there is any dalmatian in the world that is as smart and pretty as Deuce. We had her spayed in September and then 3 weeks later she fractured the growth plate in
her paw. She is a crazy girl. She plays with her friend Hola from next door every day and we go for walks also. She
put on a couple of pounds extra because she hasn't been able to exercise since her foot, but she's finally almost good as new.
She is the hit of my vets office. One girl said she hoped Deuce never got better so she could see her all the time.
I will always hold you two dear to my heart cause you're the reason I have my Deuce.
I could never thank you enough. She's wonderful.

Larry made these urns for my first girls that I lost last winter.
My vet suggested he make more to offer for sale. I started selling them on ebay and he can't keep up.
He retired but it's turned into a full time job almost. I wouldn't have been able to deal with any of this very well
had it not been for Deuce. She sure brightened up my life.

Darla & Danny,
I just thought you might like seeing some pictures of Whisper.
There is a picture where she was helping me studying for my math exam, which is really cute. Also she loves to sleep under the christmas tree. Whisper is doing great, she has learned what "NO" means by taping her nose with my hand or sometimes if I point at her she sorta knows she is doing something that is not good, and she is doing okay with potty training. She has also picked up on come, which is getting in her view and opening and closing of the hand palm side up. When we teach her more I will update you. I will send you more pictures in the future.

Hi Danny and Darla,
Chase did very well on the ride home and he had a really good first night at his new home.
He and Bella are getting along great. He keeps Bella going, but she definitely shows him who is boss.
It was really funny when he was under Bella looking for a drink to suckle from her.
I attached some pics for you. I really love the tug of war one.

Thanks for everything and keep in touch, Lori

Greetings!

Without a doubt...Lincoln is the greatest! He is nothing but joy, happiness and adventure.
As you know he was perfect when we first saw him and that has not changed.

Being a believer that a dog's temperament, personality, health and intelligence
comes in great part from exceptional breeding
I know how fortunate we were to have found the Double D.
Lincoln is great in large measure because you know what it takes to make a great Dalmatian.
You guys are the best!

Lincoln is living large in Baltimore and the neighborhood kids and dogs are loving him.
We just feel lucky to get to share him with everyone.

Best wishes to you and the extended spotted family at the Double D!
Thanks so very much for bring Lincoln into our lives.

Katie, John, Chelsea and Mr. Bill

Here are some pictures of Delia.
We wanted to let you know how much we love having her.
She is adjusting nicely to her new home.
We just love her!!!
Liz, Jim, Julia, and Brenna Leonard

 

Danny and Darla,

I am truly sorry for the lack of pictures... SO I am attaching Sirens favorite picture.

She is doing great and is presently in Puppy kindergarden. Her tracking skills are coming out and being noticed by the instructors... So keeping my fingers crossed, she will be in search and rescue training within two years...

Thank you soooo much for allowing us to get a puppy. I market your dalmatians every day.. especially when we go to the canine park.. where she plays with a Doberman pincher (cajin) and a Newfoundland (Kuma). She is soooo funny picking on bigger dogs. She has become the social butterfly at the park...

I will send more photos in the near future.

Thanks again Tony, Debbie, and Siren... :)

Hi Danny & Darla,

Thought I'd send you some more recent pic's of Lacey.
She graduated from her 2nd obedience class in Sept. You can see on the picture,
she wasn't thrilled with the graduation cap
Hope you and all your babies are doing well.
How's Kimberly
Hope she's growing and getting stronger. Any new litters on the way?

Lacey is doing great. I think I'm going to get her "therapy" certified after she turns a year old.
She is so good with people.
We took her to the nursing home a couple of weeks ago to visit my Aunt.
She loved everyone and everyone loved her.
Take care and keep in touch when you have time.

Lynn, Dan & Lacey

Hey Danny!

we found out what she was allergic to!

PLUSH DUCK TOYS! from Walmart.. she was eating the fuzz inside
or eating the plush material itself... then breaking out

sorry for the concern. she is perfect!! She is my best friend, and to the family of course.

she plays Frisbee like a champ! thats her favorite game!
It used to be fetch untill i got a frisbee.. she loves it!

Im glad we got her before the baby was born,
we had time to form a good bond with her. As well as a good exercise habits.
Lucy LOVES THE BABY and the baby LOVES Lucy!
What a Great Dog

Hello Danny and Darla,
we are sending you some recent pics of Maya. She is a wonderful dog.
We love her so much and enjoy having her as part of our family.
Thank you very much. Also we were thinking of getting a playmate for her.
She does really good with other dogs. Are you going to have any puppies available anytime soon.
I went to your website and saw some born on June 21.
We were wondering if any of those puppies were still available.
Thanks again. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Danny & Darla,

Just a quick note to update you on Chloe Ray,
again thank-you for allowing us to adopt Chloe.. She is a real sweetheart and we love her very much.
She's almost potty trained and growing like a weed about 20 # as of her last vet visit.
Chloe and our male dal, Ray are ajusting fairly well with each other.
She walks on the treadmill every day and is doing it without much of a treat.
We will keep you updated now and then on how Chloe is doing..............Thank-you

Hi Danny & Darla,

Just wanted to drop in and say hi. Olive is really doing great.
We're in puppy kindergarten now and she is so super smart! Thanks again for everything.
Here's a somewhat current photo!

Take care, Paul & Katie

Hi Danny and Darla,

It's me Kiana. Remember the Stuart's who adopted me? They've been meaning to email you some new pictures and they are finally getting around to it. So here I am, I'm 25 pounds now and growning more everyday. I am so spoiled...I get to sleep on a waterbed every night.  I get to go to a puppy party at my vet every other week, this is helping me socialize with the other puppies and the other people who are there. I usually hide in the corner until it's treat time and then I come out. It's okay though because I am a people puppy....everyone who meets me loves me :) Every chance my dad, Don, gets he takes me along with him to the fire house or other fire company functions.  I've been to the vet for an emergency visit one time. I was running around like a crazy dog and hurt my shoulder. It's okay now because they took good care of me. I just needed some anti-inflammatory medicine for a couple of days. It didn't stop me though, I still run around crazy.  Attached are a couple of pictures of me. I'll have to send them one at a time otherwise the computer freezes up.

Give my mom and dad a big hug and kiss from me.

Love,  Kiana and of course "The Stuart's"

You can really see how long I'm getting in this picture.
As you can see, I'm a very spoiled puppy :)

Dear Danny and Darla,
 
I wanted to check in and share some pictures of Molly (Kaitlyn and Keifer - green collar) at home with us.
She is now 12 weeks old and growing by leaps and bounds.  She is 19 pounds now and has almost doubled
in weight since we picked her up. 
 
We promise not to dress her up but we couldn't resist the Dolphins jersey that was on sale. 
I threw that picture in for a fellow Dolphins fan. 
The picture in front of the wildflowers was taken just today. 
 
Say hello to the gang.  How is Kimberly doing?
 
Rosemary and Jerry Molinari

Hey Danny!
Sorry it has taken so long to respond to your email, things have been very busy and I don't find much time to sit at the computer but now that the boys are in school, I have much more free time. Rowan is doing great- we couldn't ask for a better puppy. She loves being with us and has no desire to run or leave our back yard when we let her out. Rowan is in puppy kindergarten and we have gotten alot of good tools to work with her. She sits and stays. When we feed her we make her wait until she is told to eat. She is very smart and is by far the most active puppy in the class! After this we start obedience class so I know we are on the right track. I can't believe how big she has gotten and how beautiful she is. Thankyou for all of your help with getting her to us.

Hi Danny & Darla,

I've been trying to send you guys a message for a month or more, but just don't seem to get the time to do it at home.  So, I'm sending you one from work.  Here's some pic's of Lacey while we were on vacation at Ocean City, MD in July.  The beach pic's are at Assateague where they allow dogs on the beach which was very cool.  She was a little afraid of the waves, but loved the people, of course.  We were, and are so proud of her.  She's a wonderful little girl.  She's in her second obedience class and doing very well.

How are you guys?  Did you survive the 3 litters of puppies?  Are they all in new homes?  People are always asking us where we got Lacey because her personality and her looks are so wonderful.  We give you and your dogs all the credit and recommend everyone to you.

Let us know how you're doing when you have a chance.

Have a great evening!

Lynn, Dan & Lacey  :)

Hi Danny and Darla,
 
We just want you to know how well Kasey has adjusted into our household! 
She goes to the door to go out, she is full of loving personality, sleeps all nite, it just a sweetie pie!
 
Thanks so much for your hospitality.  We are definately very happy with her.

Hi Danny and Darla, ZuZu is doing amazing. She is very tiny but we love every ounce of her. She thinks she is a White German Shepherd. She is shy with strangers and other dogs she doesn't know so she is attending training classes to help with her socialization. She is such a great dog and we wanted to thank you again for her. I attached a picture of her with her parents pictures. People were wondering what her parents looked like so we put this picture together.
Hope you are having a good summer.
Thank you, Suzanne Innamorato

Good afternoon Danny and Darla,

We just wanted to take a moment and thank you for Oliver! He is doing wonderful. He is now on his second full day at work. He works for a few hours then naps for a few hours. He is getting along well with the other dogs at the log yard. He is still leary of our cats, except Maxwell who thinks he is a reincarnation of his best friend Milo. So far he sleeps from 10:30pm to 3:00am. We take him out and 5 min later he is fast asleep till 5:30 am. and its time to start the day.

Take care, Jeff, Jenn, and Oliver

Hi Danny & Darla..............My daughter and I had a very nice trip back to NY. 'Chloe Ray' slept most of the way back. You are both very nice people and we enjoyed meeting both of you. Your facility is immaculate and I can tell that you have a great love for your dalmatians and I enjoyed meeting all of them. This is the best experience I have ever had with any dog breeder and I would highly recommend you to anyone that loves Dals and was looking for a puppy. Our dog Ray is getting used to Chloe and kinda watching over her. I am sure that Chloe wll enrich our lives more with each passing day. Thank-you very much for allowing us to adopt this little girl......................
I will send pictures as Chloe grows and adapts to her new family...................................
Flossie & Al Flint.

Darla and Danny,

We are so glad that we found you. You have been wonderful to work with. Everytime I had a question, you were quick to answer it. You definitely love your dalmatians...every single one of them. Kiana has brought so much joy to our family, we love her so much and we are having a ball with her. She has the cutiest little personality.
Thank you.

As you can see...Kate is loving her.  Kiana is getting her share of attention.

Kiana all pooped out from a busy day playing with the girls.  And yes that's a dress she's wearing....can you tell she lives with a house full of girls.

HI Folks, Are you ready for this? We made it home by 9:30 pm that night. My daughter came over to see Millie and stayed until 10:30. I took Millie out into the outside Pen where she did her duties (surprised) and then took her to our bedroom where we have a crate thta she sleeps in. She instantly started crying and after 15 minutes of trying to quiet her down, I slapped the crate with my shoe and she stopped. She laid down and went to sleep and didn't wake up until 5:30 am. I took her out to theoutside pen where she did her duties and I brought her back in where she played with Maggie. After an hour I sent Maggie back upstairs to bed with Joan and I laid on the floor with Millie. In 5 minutes she went to sleep and we both slept for 2 and a half hours more. This routine has been repeated every night. During the daytime, she has had a few accidents but it is because we missed the signs.
When she eats or naps, she is put outside in the pen right away where she pees and poops each time. I think she will be easy to house train.
Her and maggie play all day and maggie babies her a lot. She allows her to drink her water and she shares her treats with her. Sometimes they get rough and Maggie gets carried away. I have to stop them but they have no problem with it and are adjusting much better and quicker than I expected. We love her as much as Maggie and I need to make sure I give Maggie equal time.
I wish you could see them play. Its a riot. Maggie mothers her a lot They both go outside several times a day and play out there. Millie will do her duties and she returns to the back door right away to be let in. Whenever she comes in she goes to Maggies mat and lies down for a nap.
I will send pictures in a few weeks.
Thanks for everything. You folks are fantastic.

Lorne, Joan, Maggie and Millie

Here is an updated pic of Stan with his mom's gear.
Can't get him to sit comfortably on the firetruck (a parked firetruck) without some company :)
He is the best dog we have ever had, a true loyal companion and a complete joy.
We get compliments on his behavior and overall demeanor everywhere we take him.

Hello Danny and Darla,
ZuZu is doing great. We attached a picture of her.
She is getting so big. Her and Callie are inseparable.
It is so great to see the strong bond they have with each other.
Thank you so much for bringing her into our lives.

Diamond's first night here was fantastic. I was afraid she would miss the warm bodies of her brothers and sisters.
But she slept very well through the night. Waking up once to go outside in the middle of the night. I also heard her in bed attacking the stuff bear.

She has made no mistakes as of yet in the house. We just time her after she eats and sleeps, and believe this or not she has even gone to the sliding glass door to let us know she had to go. I was amazed. I just try to stay in tune of her actions and we have been praising her very well for her behavior.

My husband is brushing up on his dog behavior training videos. (He is so cute, he doesn't want to make any mistakes raising her.)

Diamond spent a good part of her day running with the children outside in-between naps. She met the neighbors dog. We thought it would be a good idea to let them meet and be friends, since the neighbors dog comes down every day for a treat from us. She is a good little friendly dog. Diamond loved her.

I called the vet to make an appt. for Diamond and they said to bring her in on Monday to introduce her to the staff and to establish a relationship with the Doctor. They are very nice there at Jarrettsville Veterinary Center.

I received your pictures today. Boy do those pictures show her true personality (little stinker). She is a very special little girl and we are truly Blessed to have her.

I want to thank you very much for everything you have done for us. I will continue to update you on Diamond.

You will have to let us know how your little boy is doing after his Bayer testing. I'll be praying hard for him.

Thank you and God Bless, Carolyn, Daniels, Rachel, Jacob, & Diamond Ehm

Home safe and sound :) I did sleep most of the ride, and then didn't even want to wake up. He is already such a pleasure and easy to work with. The leash was no big thing, didn't seem to care about it. We have created a puppy page for him on Facebook, and will try to send you the link. I will send photos of Stanley on the firetrucks! (attached is one of him watching Hockey :) Thanks sO much!

Eddie, Robin & Stanley.

 

Danny and Darla,

I want to thank you very much for the time you have spent with us and all the time you have spent raising Diamond.

Diamond is a beautiful Dalmatian. You have socialized her very well. She is very alert and inquisitive. Diamond enjoys playing with the children. She is such a dear to have.

Diamond's ride home went well. She slept most of the way and snuggled the rest of the way home.

Hi Danny and Darla, We just wanted to say we made it home great. Slider slept most of the way, and did pretty good when he got to the house. The cats still arent to sure of him although they come and check him out when he is sleeping.
Thank you so much for allowing us to adopt Slider, we love him so much and he is so much apart of our family already.

Thanks again. Enjoy the pics

Hi Danny and Darla..
 
I just wanted to send you some updated pictures of Nia. She is growing like crazy and is very active.
She loves to play outside and loves our morning and evening walks to the barn to feed. She now knows how to sit, shake, sit pretty, lay and we are now working on STAY. She was doing very well with house training and then this past week she has seemed to relapse and has been having a lot of accidents, we are not sure why but we are working on getting her back to normal. She is now best friends with my little cousin, Maddox, he is one and when he comes over she gets so excited to see him and he loves her. We also made a trip to the Maryland line to visit
a friend of mine who has two Papillions and she made best friends with them although at first she was very
afraid of them.  She is very smart and everyone just loves her! Thank you so much again!

Dear Danny & Darla, its Danny from New York and we just wanted to drop
in and say thank you both so much. You've made my dream come true. Ever
since I was 4 years old watching 101 dalmatians I've wanted 1. But my
asthma and allergies to dogs wouldn't let me. Some miracle they're just
gone and I've never been better around dogs. Casper's doing great. We
all love him so much and im pretty sure he loves us too. Well here are
some pictures of casper and his first bath @ petsmart. Oh yea we're
doing the training classes too. He's already learned how to sit. He's a
great very smart dog and we thank you for him. Gold bless and we hope
you have a great year. Sincerely Danny, melba, and Luis.

Hello Danny and Darla,
 
I just wanted to let you know that little Nia is doing great. She is almost completely house trained. She cries almost everytime she has to go out, but there is those few times when she forgets and leaves a little present. She has made best friends with our blue heeler, Zoey. They love to play outside together! She hasnt made friends with the horses yet. She starts to shake when she sees them, especially when they move. It might take her some time to get used to them! She sleeps with me everynight and now she is my alarm clock I dont even need to set mine because she gets me up between 6:30 and 7 every morning. My family absolutely loves her. She went to christmas with us at my aunts on christmas eve and she loved the little kids. She slept extremely well that night because she was so tired out!  Everyone thinks she is the most beautiful thing alive, they all just love her to death. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to bring her into our lives it has been a blessing!
 
Thank you so much!
Eden McDivitt
 
P.S. I attached some pictures for you to look at!

Darla and Danny,
ZuZu is doing great!  We got home at around 6pm last night.  Callie, Riley, Bailey, and ZuZu had a breif smelling session then warmed up to each other right away.  Callie has seemed to take the role of a mother figure to her.  She was crying when ZuZu wasn't near here.  Everything seems to be going great.  We are taking her to the Vet on Monday to get her shot and check up.  We attached a picture of ZuZu and one one of her and Callie.  We will keep you updated.
Thank you for everything!
The Innamorato Family

P.S.- it seems as if she developed spots overnight!

Danny & Darla,
"Piper" is doing great!! She slept almost the entire ride home.  We'll keep you posted on her. She is beautiful with a fantastic personality:)
We love her already!!
Tom, Karen & Hayden Malloy

Danny & Darla, it was great to meet you and all the dals. I have to say that a big weight was lifted off my shoulders when I saw your beautiful place and your love and dedication to your dogs. You both are so great and I can truly see the love you have for them and the great care they receive.

Thanks so much for inviting us. Did the family with first choice pick today? I have been showing my friends and family pics of Ace and wanted to make sure that he was still mine..
Thanks again
Kathy & Mike Reynolds

 Dear Danny & Darla,

Thank you so very much for allowing us to come to your beautiful home and pick our puppy. Robert and Calison talked about the puppies the whole way home. Your home is absolutely gorgeous and the care and love you give to your dalmatians is heart warming. You have my word that Mia will be taken care of as well as we take care of our children and spoiled just as much. Today was the happiest I have seen Robert in a year. He has a picture of Mia on our computer as a screen saver. We can't wait to have a new member in our family. Thank you both so very much.
Sincerely,
Erin Delancy-Hummer

Dear Danny and Darla,
We hope you and your family had a wonderful Easter!  We enjoyed ours.  Lucy is growing up quickly.  We are sorry it took us so long to finally send you some pictures, but time seems to be flying by! 

We want to thank you again for all your help getting her.  We love her more than words can say!  She has brought unending joy and laughter into our lives, and we appreciate her so much.  She has a wonderful temperament and has been a pleasure to train.  She is very bright and learns everything quickly.  We couldn't be happier with our puppy.

Let me know if you need any recommendations, etc. We would be more than happy to give one.
Sincerely,
Albert, Bridgette & Lucy

Hello Danny and Darla,
    Deborah spoke with Darla this morning so I'll keep this short. Thank You so much for this Awesome puppy, he is so much fun to have around and our kids love him to death. he is verrrry spoiled and happy and has adapted to his new family like he was born here. He is in puppy preschool and on his way to being a well minded dog. alot of work but it is very rewarding every time he learns something new. he has made friends with our neighbors older labrador and a friends labrapoodle, he's very quick to get along with other dogs when we take walks as well.
Anyhow that's about it, here are some photos of Drake and the kids at the park and in his yard.
  Again Thank You,

Austin awoke to find Santa granted his wish of a Dalmatian puppy named
Miller!!! Hope you enjoy the pictures.
