Hi Niki,

Eric and I just wanted to write you and give you a Guinness update! He is doing wonderfully! We are taking him everywhere with us, and he behaves like such a little gentleman. We were even invited to Grandma’s house for the fourth of July! He has stolen the hearts of our entire family! Eric’s parents consider him the "Grand-dog" and are planning shopping sprees to Petsmart. They even kennel their own two dogs and let Guinness have run of the house when we come over!

We are more and more amazed at how smart he is with each passing day. He learned the Sit command in 15 minutes and we are working on "come" and "lay down." He’s doing really well with his litter box too. We are so impressed with how few accidents he’s had in the house. We brought him home and plopped him down in the box, and he did his business just like he was supposed to! Now he recognizes the "Go potty" command and hops into his box on command (which is great when we’re taking him places!). As soon as we can, we’re going to get him into puppy obedience classes and we’re sure he’ll be the star pupil!

We are so happy to have Guinness in our home and can’t imagine life without him now. He has become our little buddy and we are so grateful to you for bringing him to us. He is the most beautiful puppy in the world (I might be a little biased on that one), and we have more fun with him everyday. He is everything you said he would be; adorable, full of personality, intelligent and healthy.

Eric and I searched for the right Papillon breeder for over 6 months and Guinness was well worth the wait. He is the perfect puppy for us and I could not have imagined a better experience than this one. Thank you so much Niki for all of your advice and expertise before and after Guinness came home, and for being so much fun to talk to about Papillons and shows, and everything else! We feel so blessed to have found you.

Love,

Rachael, Eric, and Guinness (aka Dennis the Menace!)
