Julian Martin *** Cruzan's best bud!

October 21, 2007 * Thank you so much for talking to me today! It brought me great joy to speak to the people who made Leah possible to me. She meant the world to our family and we are devastated at her loss.

I doubt I would even consider purchasing another from someone else after my experiences with Leah, talking to you, and seeing your website. It is truly obvious of your love and devotion to the breed!

Here are a couple pictures of my “baby”. She was absolutely 1 in a million!!!! I can honestly say she changed our lives forever! Sincerely, Tim Havice

A NEW PUPPY for the Havice Family!They welcome Thornapple Hemi Power "Hemi" into their arms ** October 22 I couldn’t be happier with Hemi! He is such a gem and such a loveable friend! He cuddled with me the whole way home. He instantly made friends with his other two “housemates”, Roxy and Riley. They just came in from playing and romping in the backyard. He also walked to school with me to pick up my son and had a ball with everyone.

Hemi causes quite the stir with thekids. He and I are going to be very close friends. My wife Pam said she can see him bonding with me already…he keeps such a close eye on me now. Thank you so much for trusting me to have Hemi! I feel very blessed to have him.I will be happy to send pictures as he grows up if you want to see them. I have a couple of him when he arrived home with us. Enjoy! Sincerely, Tim Havice

Happy Halloween wishes from Iwona in Poland!!

My name is Barbara Klausz, I live in Hungary, and I have the fortune that I own a beautiful Latte son, from her previous, first litter. His name is Vito, he was the only blue merle male in this litter. He's smart, and bright, but a real despot:-)) We hoped that he becomes as gorgeous as his great-grandfather, Reno. Now he is 10,5 month old. I send U a portrait, and maybe U can find the face of your beloved Reno in his eyes. All the best, Barbara Klausz, Eötvös Lorand University, Faculty of Sciences, Dept. of Ethology. www.shadegardens.extra.hu

I thought you might like to know what Kirby is up to.  Kirby goes to work with me every day. He ferries documents from one office to the other just for fun.  He has a little bag that I made for him and I can put a document in it and he will take it to whomever I say.He obeys every command without a fuss and without fail.  He knows a considerable number of commands.  I have used him to help friends with unruly dogs. After they are around him for a few days, they begin to develop better habits and manners. 

His favorite toy is a large stuffed ball and his favorite treat is Frosty Paws. He is a very happy dog and he loves to play all day long.   He instantly bonds with all children and he is protective of them when strangers show up.  He is an excellent travel companion.  He goes with me nearly everywhere.  He is very athletic, jumping fences without trouble down on my farm. He loves to be chased by other dogs whom he outmaneuvers with ease.  No dog is faster, so far. He is a great pal. I will never have another not an Aussie, preferably a Thornapple Aussie. Thank you, John J. Sabuco, President, Eldertree Stoneoak & Brookings, Inc.

Just thought you would appreciate that Zippo is passing on his love of swimming to his kids. This is one from his last litter (Jinx is her pet name) and at 5 months old she loves to swim, trying to catch the splashes as she swims around the pool.

The other photo is of Zippo himself obviously (lol) having just climbed out of the pool and ready to leap onto his daughter again! Those same games that Scorch and Zippo played dunking one another are the games he plays with Jinx. Summer in New Zealand ** November 2007 ** Thank you, Di, for sharing these wonderful photos!

AND it is the FIRST SNOW in Sweden for Lucy ** November 2007! Thank you for sharing Marie!

A bit too much fun in the snow! Lucy takes a nappie!
