Maddox is so active and playful and loves to be around us. We just got a fence put up in our backyard so he is really enjoying playing out back and roaming around free! He is a very smart puppy and such a quick learner. He has been potty trained for sometime now and is learning new tricks it seems all the time. He is very good at sitting and shaking and now he is learning to 'high-five' and lay down. He loves to go for walks and play with little kids....we get so many compliments on what a beautiful dog he is and inquries of where we got him. Maddox is from Lady and Duke's July 4th 07 litter.

He is always making us laugh and has definitely changed our lives....for the better of course!! He is so wonderful and we love him soo much...you do well with your litters :) I just sent a couple of the pictures I was able to import to the computer....he made such a cute bumblebee for Halloween. The picture of him on the loveseat is a typical place for him, he thinks that is HIS couch and he will fight for it! I hope you enjoy the pictures! Thanks again for a wonderful puppy!!!!

Susie aka Zoe left here at 8 weeks of age. She flew to California.

Zoe is the best! She cried the first night in the crate and that was it. Now she just cries to let us know that she needs out to use the bathroom. She is so smart and cute and calm...I cannot believe it! I have been training her for 5 minutes a day on the sit command. The second time she got it. She sits every time now. She also gets a walk on the leash every day. She heels great as well. No chewing incidents, doesn't jump, and it good with Cinnamon. She is also potty training really well. It's almost too good to be true. We will send some pictures for your website. Thanks for ZOE! Amy and Family.

Kasey also has just recently left here to join her family, Joanne has purchased one of Salt's puppies 3 years ago. Pictured are Kasey and Hannah.

Hannah and her are doing much better now. Kasey follows Hannah around like she's her mother, it's so cute. Hannah plays a little rough with her sometimes, but she comes back for more. Skip and I are enjoying the two of them so much.

Kasey has been introduced to the wire kennel here before she left the Siess Ranch, this is just one of the things we do to help their change of environment go much smoother. Kennel training is important to teach your new puppy. In years they will resort to their kennel or sleeping area as their own den. A place to get away from it all.

Catherine wanted a more reserved puppy, Cheyenne seems to really fit into her lifestyle.

Cheyenne is relaxing here in Houston. She has gotten very comfortable in the house and she even barks at the cats now; it makes me laugh. She has gone to the dog park and did so well with big dogs jumping all over her. She has visted my mother's school (She is a school teacher) and the kids loved her, as well as everyone at my father's work. Everyone tells me how mellow and beautiful she is; thank you. Cathy

Bo has arrived in Pennsylvania

We caved in and bought him a brother, Duke. We got Duke from a family in Pennsylvania a few days before Bo arrived. We brought him to the airport to welcome Bo to his new home and Bo jumped out of his crate and the two started to play. The two boys are best buddies and have been attached at the hip since day one...they've been tons of fun.

Bo is growing fast. He's a week younger than Duke, and was smaller when he arrived, but he's bigger than Duke now and shows no sign of slowing down.

He's an absolutely gorgeous dog and everyone just loves him. This weekend we're suppose to get our first big snow storm...we'll see how the boys like it. They also start ! working with a trainer next week. Thanks for sending us such a great pup...we love him to death. We'll keep you updated, Megan and Sean

November 30 , 2005 Ginger aka "Molly" Flew to the Virgin Islands

She did so well last night in her crate and only woke up to go outside once! I was expecting a few sleepless nights at first:) You have done such a wonderful job with her and you can tell she had alot of love!
Geoff...my boyfriend...is in love with her and i said "you will forget MY name in a month"...he replied "probably in a week":)
Anyway...thanks so much for everything,

November 12, 2005 Charlotte parents picked her up here at our home.

Just wanted you to know Olive aka (Charlotte) had a very relaxing trip to Omaha. She slept the entire way back. She and Duncan (Jack Russell) and Bobo (Sheltie) spent the better half of the evening playing and exploring the yard. Olive has found quite the comfortable spot to spend her nights...atop our bed! This morning we went to the marina and she and the others ran some more. She tries her hardest to keep up with Duncan and Bobo, but her little legs just haven't reached that stage yet! Wherever I go, there she is trotting along beside me, or laying beneath my chair. She is the sweetest little lab puppy ever! Thank you so much. We have already taken a roll of film, so we will send you some pictures soon. She has a very nice home, and I think she's pretty happy here. She even played with one of the cats today, so I'm certain she is having a smooth transition. No accidents in the house, either. Again, thank you for such a sweet puppy.

My husbands wish was to own a Lab. I just wasn't a dog person. Every time a commercial with a dog would come on, we would argue because I was so dead against a dog. So one night I was on the computer and I saw Sarge for the first time. I called Beth the next day and she answered all my questions. I could tell Beth really loved the puppies. So me not ever wanting a dog, changed to me surprising my husband with his wish. The whole experience has been great, the phone calls with Beth, the waiting for him to arrive at the airport, bathing him, puppy licks, watching all the women and employees at Pet Smart gawk over him, and yes the accidents. We love Sarge so much he's like part of the family. I guess I was truly a dog person after all. I know Sarge was cared for before he came to us and that was important to me. The Siess Ranch doesn't just breed puppies, they love them. Beth thanks for everything, and let Lady and Hoss know we thank them for our little bundle of joy!!

Nov 5, 05 - Vic now re-named Beau's Whisper.
Things are going great with "Vic". We re-named him Whisper and he responds really well to it so far. He did great in the car ride home, no accidents. He's had a few # 1 accidents in the house, but no # 2s and has had no accidents in his crate. We bought him puppy pads and he has been using them. :)

He is doing great. We just came back from Thanksgiving in Oklahoma and he was socialized with all the family and everyone just loved him! His big brother Beau just loves having him around and they are so fun to watch.
