Julie,
I have begun a simple Terrier blog (mainly to experiment with blogging!) and I have added your website link. Thought you may want to know. My blog is very new with few followers yet, but I do enjoy writing about my Tenacious Terrier. Here is the address. If you have any insightful terrier info, feel free to post!

Coconut is doing great and is very well trained right now. She listens and follows commands very well. I see you’ve just had puppies. Good luck with them.
Take care,

Hey Julie,
I added some new pics of Sierra to my page if you want to check them out. Sorry it's taken so long, but I've been really busy. It's also difficult to get her to be still long enough to take a good picture. LOL Hope you all are doing well.
Sierra is beautiful, smart and just has the perfect little demeanor.She has been easy to train as well, so give yourself a big pat on the back for your excellent dog breeding! Not all pups have the sweet demeanor that Sierra has, so you should give yourself a pat on the back. Austin has still had a few reactions only after being around her, but we determined it was happening b/c of the shampoo we had been using on Sierra, and also b/c of her eating or licking something he is allergic to. He is so sensitive until she could go under a chair or bed and get dust on her and after Austin petting her, etc. he would have a mild reaction. The easiest thing to do would have been to sell her to someone else, but she is so sweet and smart until we just couldn't do it. We are just very careful about what she gets into and about what shampoo's we use now. She's very smart to; She is very easy to train! Good luck with your next arrival. (I saw you are waiting on the Stork) I'm sure they'll be just as precious.
Take care,
Faith

Hello Julie,
I wanted to send you and updated picture of Joey and Chandler . Jennifer and Chandler came to visit Labor Day week end and they play hard with each other and when Chandler leaves Joey just grieves. It is really pitiful. This first picture is Chandler, the second picture is Joey, and the third picture is Joey…he wakes me up every morning anywhere from 4 – 5 and I get up, get in a recliner and he gets up there with me and we go back to sleep. This is how my husband finds us when he gets up around 6. He is the funniest thing, and I am loving have him around. We sent our youngest daughter to college in August and Joey has become the best lap dog ever!

Julie, just wanted to let you know we are thoroughly enjoying Dooley. He keeps us entertained daily! He’s doing better than I expected with potty training which has been a pleasant surprise!
I’ve attached pictures. I’ll send you more next month so your daughter can keep up with his progress. I told Scott that I was going to end up having an entire photo album of him!

Julie,
Chandler is the sweetest little guy! I finally brought him home with me to TN Easter Sunday and he has been doing so well! He likes to play a lot in the morning and then snuggle before I leave for work. He also plays really hard in the evenings and then crashes and we snuggle until I go to bed. I brought him to work with me on Monday and he was soo good. The ladies I work with fell in love with him! He was totally eating up all the attention he was getting from the girls, haha!
He is soo funny too. I dropped a piece of ice on the floor last night and he went crazy over it! Out of all the toys he has, he still prefers a piece of ice. When one piece melts, he goes to the fridge and waits for me to get him another one.
Here are a couple of pictures I took. One is of us snuggling and another is of him sleeping while I'm working.
Thanks so much for all your help! Both Joey and Chandler are soo precious!

Hello Julie,
Just thought I would take a moment and send you a picture of Joey and give you an update. He is full of energy! He loves being outside a lot especially during the day but at night he doesn’t like it at all. He acts like he is spooked. He loves to run in the house, and he is quite good at dodging the furniture. He would love to play with our older dogs, but they don’t want to play with him. They tolerate him standing on him and licking their ears but that’s about it. He sleeps through the night just fine, after we tried several different places.
We are truly enjoying Joey he is so fun to watch while he plays. The vet visits have gone well, he is growing and he eats well. I’ve started giving him little treats when he go to the bathroom outside, and he is going pretty good with that, except at night he hates to go out.
I hope things are going well with you, and I can’t wait to see new puppy pictures on the web site.
Take care,
Lisa Crowe
Julie,
I wanted you to know that izzy has her vet appointment this thursday.
She is so cute and very well adapted. I am so pleased we purchased her from you and your family.
I would recommend you and your puppies to everyone. I will send you a pic of her once I get one scanned.
Ashley was so excited when she came home from work. She took her back to school and is bringing her home to us on thursday for the appointment and to stay until she graduates.
I bought her a bed and some toys along with a blanket with her name and birthdate monogramed on it. Ashley's easter present is a tote bag to carry izzy around in. I can not wait to give it to her.
Thank you so much for making her day so very special.
I will keep in touch and let you see her progress into adulthood.

Hi Julie,
I just wanted to let you know how wonderful Sumner is doing. He surprises me every minute with his little clever, playful personality. He has followed me everywhere and has explored everything in our house. It has been a long time for me, since I've had this much excitement around here, and I look forward to every minute of it!! He has only been here a day and already he has me wrapped around his little finger (paws)! He likes to charge at himself when looking into the mirror in the bedroom, he will even bark at himself. I guess he thinks that it is his brothers and sister. Thank you so much for for all that you have done to shape him into the wonderful little man that he is!
He was a HUGE hit at the vet's this afternoon. Everyone was talking about how little and cute he is! Of Course! Everything went great! He weighs 3 lbs. 4 oz. and recieved another booster shot ( DMA2P - CPV) and his fecal exam came back negative! We go back in 3 weeks for another round of shots! Thank you again, I will be sending some pictures in the next week or two! God Bless you and your Family Always!
Lauren and Sumner
Hello Julie!
I can't tell you how much I have looked forward to your emails weekly! I can't believe only 6 more days! I am so excited, he's all I think about! I've been reading a couple of books on training and socializing and what not, and I am very thankful that you have already started the socializing process. It's just a comfort to know that he's having human interaction, as well as time to play with his brothers and sisters. I think that you are such an amazing and dedicated breeder, and it means the world to me to know that Rumor is being brought up right, right from the start!
By the way, I LOVE these pictures!!!
Thank you for being an amazing breeder and caring for Rumor like you do!
Can't wait to see you and Rumor on Saturday!!

Here's a picture of Humphrey and his new haircut. He is growing like a
weed. He's now around 10 lbs. Also sleeps in his crate and never has
accidents there. We aren't fully potty trained , but close. We'll send more pictures soon.
We love his ears. Looks like a little rabbit when he's hopping through the back yard. Also loves his toys. Loves to fetch the tennis ball. Tries to get two of them in his mouth at the same time. Ends up w/ one in his mouth and using his paws to kick the other ball back to me. VERY smart.

Maggie is doing great!!! Growing by leaps and bounds! Potty training is going pretty good...sleeps in her crate and never has a accident there. She has a very large appetite...wants to eat all the time. We named her Maggie May.

Julie,
Thumper is thriving and I love him. He is so full of life and himself it is amazing. He loves being the center of attention.
I love him so much I'm considering a female Westie, too. I think we asked your thoughts on a male and female (both fixed) but I need a refresher. Think they would get along? Vickie would like a female she can "sissy-fie".
Thumper has no problems these days being dominant. He is getting muscles and is still very gentle with smaller dogs (Tea Cup Yorkie). He was holding his own against a Coton de Tulear over the holidays. Plays very well with other dogs so you socialized him very well. He is a cool dog. Just as good as I expected him to be.
Thanks,
Dennis

We had a vet check this afternoon for our new Westie and everything checked out ok. Thanks for the tips and care for him. He's going to make a nice addition to the household.

Julie—
Coconut is doing very well!
She is a very smart dog, and can do sit, down, stay and come already! We’re working on rolling over. She loves her crate and is ok at night from about 9 until 6am. She is doing pretty well w/potty training, and I do take her out a lot so her accidents are minimal. She is very loving and very attached to us. All the kids love her and she is good with them. She has her “puppy freak down” moments as we call them—when she just gets really excited and nippy. That’s when the crate comes in handy. Even those seem to be less and less.
We have a fenced-in back yard so she gets to run around a lot and chase balls…and get tired!
We have our second puppy kindergarten class tonight---she is the star pupil!
Here are some shots of her at 13 weeks.
Thanks—we love our Coconut!
