Bellflower ap Welsh Run "Kenna" (GEORGIA)
Laurie,
Thanks
so much for your time and thoughts today. Here are a couple of pictures of the little ones from our visit.
Tom (in Georgia)
Blossom ap Welsh Run "Maggie" (MICHIGAN)
Laurie, Thank
you so much for the pictures. Maggie really is a cutie, isn't she? Can't wait to get her, and please thank
your daughter for taking such good care of her and giving her the attention she needs at this age. Thanks again for the pics! Joe in
Michigan
Update at 11 months: Hi Laurie -- Hope everything is well with you.
I've attached a couple of more recent pictures of Maggie.
Turns out, she loves to get a bath. I took this after I found her in the tub thinking she was going to get a bath. She's
now about 11 months old, and pretty well full grown now I would think. About 18 inches high and just about 30 pounds,
the perfect size for my house and yard. She loves to go on walks to the park, where she will retrieve balls I throw
to her until eternity. She's extremely intelligent and obeys very well. Really just about everything I wanted
in a dog. This summer when she's about 1 1/2 I think I might put her into a hunt training class. Good luck with your new litter.
I've let some neighbors who just love Maggie know about your new litter. Joe Romzek
Buccaneer ap Welsh Run at 4 weeks.......... and at 8 weeks in his new home! (FLORIDA)
Hello Laurie,
Thanks so much for all of the helpful information that you sent me. I found
it to be very useful. I really appreciate the updates you send on the pups development. It's fun to know how he is coming
along. Hope all is well with you. I'm sure Mother's day is big day at your house!
TIM (in Florida)
Update at 9 wks: Hello Laurie! First let me just say that we totally love Bucky. He is such
a loving and intelligent puppy! He already is used to walking with a lead and collar. He comes to his name and he knows the
"Sit" command. He almost has the "Stay" command down too. He has a healthy appetite and his digestion
is good too. He will go in next week for his second shot series. He also met the grooming lady at the Vets. He did great!
Another lucky thing, the vet I go to has three Brittanys... imagine that! He has already made good friends with an older
female golden retriever that my neighbors have. He hung out this evening with about ten adults and a six year old girl. He
seemed to enjoy all the energy of the visitors. It amazes me how sweet and friendly this dog is! We just love him so much.
I do want to thank you again for everything. We are feeling like this is a great match of a dog for us. Look forward to hearing
from you.
Warmest Wishes, Tim
(in Florida)
Laurie, I finally
have some pics of Bucky for you that are current. One of them is a pic of me and my four year old nephew that just loves Bucky.
He is the best dog ever. He is friendly, loving, and great with children and other dogs. He knows how to sit, stay, heel,
roll-over, shake, and he also rings a bell at the door when he wants to go out to do his business! He is very quick to learn
things. He is in great health and we have a great vet that he likes. He has no trouble with the groomer and is great when
it comes to getting his ears cleaned and nails trimmed. Thanks so much for hooking us up with a companion as great as Bucky.
I know that finding the right breeder was the place to start! Anytime you ever need a reference for a potential client, you
can count on me. I would without hesitation refer your service. Thanks to you and your family for doing such a fine job.
Blue ap Welsh Run "Blue" cooling his paws at 10 weeks (PENNSYLVANIA)
We've
been wanting to write and update you as well as send a few photos. Blue is now the head of the house and office!
He pretty much does everything we do. He took to water like a fish and swims very well. He has grown quite a bit. He
is over 18 lbs. now and has a great temperament. Friends comment that they can't believe he is just a puppy.
He is very laid back but does get excited about playing ball and Frisbee. On walks through the fields, he has actually
honed in on a bird or two. We had Blue along to Alpine Lake in West Virginia last weekend with another couple.
They were impressed at how relaxed and calm he was. He was no trouble at all, even on the 3 hour ride there and 3 hour
ride home! He sleeps very well, no matter where we are. Rick is anxious to get hunting pictures with him and all the
birds!!!! Thanks, Rick & Patti (in Pennsylvania)
Below are some comments
from owners of our Spring 2005 litter (4 pups total):
Camp holding point on a bird wing at 10 weeks
Aragorn ap Welsh Run,
aka 'Camp' (MAINE)
"Camp is doing well. Over the weekend
he had his first trip to camp which consists of a 3 hour drive, he had fun there. He is not too sure about the water but has
his paws in. He has also been to the beach and has been meeting lots of other dogs and people when we are out for our walks.
Scott has been training him a little every night. He tied a bird wing to a piece of fishing line. Thanks!"
Bree and Scott
Update at 4 months : his natural hunting ability is wonderful; we have noticed
trainability, pointing, and stalking wildlife. Camp will be hunting wild grouse and woodcock in wooded areas. His temperament
is very calm and good. He has bonded wonderfully with our family. He loves the children and they love him. I would recommend
Welsh Run Kennels--it was a good experience, you are very personable and helpful. The web site is great, the best we found.
It showed your philosophy and the living arrangement of the dogs." Bree and Scott
Beautiful
Abi at 6 months
Abigail ap Welsh Run, aka 'Abi' (GEORGIA)
Abi at 8 wks: "Abi and my daughter are getting along just fine as well as the
rest of the family. I hope your girls are getting over her being gone but I guess they have a few more to deal with
as well. Please reassure them Abi is being cherished even more every day and we are taking very good care of her.
I'll be sure to send pictures. Thanks for the update from AKC. Alan" Abi at 6 months: "Abi is really doing well. She is very healthy and eager to learn. I have taken her on several
dove shoots and she has started to retrieve kills. We have only done a little with quail and pointing and such so she
is not as far along with that, but they really excite her and she is coming along good. She and Carlyn are real pal's.
Carlyn has been talking for a several months now and I can count on her every afternoon as I come in from work,
to go to the window, point to Abi's kennel, and say 'Abi, Abi...' as most days we will go out and spend time
with her together at that time."
Apollon ap
Welsh Run, aka 'Sadie' (NEW HAMPSHIRE) "Sadie is so adorable.
We are all in love with her. She is so cuddly and friendly. We also have noticed that she is a "couch potato"
hmm....Thanks for everything, will send pics and keep you updated on her progess. Neil and Kim"
Amissy ap Welsh Run, aka 'Missy' (FLORIDA)
8 weeks: "Missy is
soooo adorable. We all just love her. She has already learned how to use the doggie door on our porch. Missy arrived
in great condition. Lindsay and Missy fell asleep on the floor together this afternoon. Lindsay has changed the dog's
name about 5 times. I am praying that one of the names will stick soon...Thank you again for a beautiful, loving dog."
Laura Update at 4 Months: "We have seen quite a bit of hunting ability in Missy. She is constantly stalking and
chasing birds and squirrels. Very sweet and loving. Our experience with Welsh Run Kennels was very enjoyable. Lindsay
loves checking your website for updated pictures of Missy." Tommy and Laura
