References by Current Maple Ridge Puppy Owners
We believe one of the best references we can
give you about the
health and quality of our dogs is also the best compliment a breeder can ever receive .....
when a family comes back to us to add a second Maple Ridge dog =8-)
And, we are proud to share these letters and photos we have received from
our many happy,
healthy, Maple Ridge Golden puppies and their owners.
ENJOY !

Brad writes,
" Our puppies are great! We are at the beach 3 x
per week. Max will start squeaking as soon as we are on the beach road, and
Sophie plays back up. We have to spell the word G O now because they
get really excited. I'm beginning to think they can spell too. They
are great swimmers and love running in the sand. Vet says they look
great and loves their personalities. We have a great family!
Thanks for breeding such great dogs :-) " |

Brad is one of many
Maple Ridge Puppy Owners who have referred friends and family to us for a
puppy. In the photo at left, are FOUR Maple
Ridge kids -- Max & Sophie (same dogs as the photos just above),
with friend's Maple Ridge dog " Wiley," and sister-in-law's dog "Wrigley." |

This handsome guy is "Truman" -

Truman was born in 2005 ...
stay tuned for future news about this little gentleman :-) |
"Kathy,
Greetings! Truman, as you know,
is now a little over 4 months old. He has completed his puppy shots and the
vet says he is in excellent health. Truman has fit well into our
family. Truman is also fun to train! He has now completed a month of
puppy kindergarten and is progressing extremely well. He easily
follows the commands of sit, down, stay, stand, and come, and does well with
"Leave It" (most of the time :-) The place we are taking Truman for
training participates in AKC training programs so we plan on taking Truman
as far as we can with those.
In puppy kindergarten a couple
weeks ago, the trainer brought in an adult dog who, she indicated, was
extremely intuitive in assessing a dog's level of dominance and could adjust
her "approach" to a dog based on that intuition. The dog went around
the room to all the puppies and happened to come to Truman last. She
approached all the other dogs in the room either dominantly or submissively,
but approached Truman as an equal. Based upon that encounter and her
observations of Truman in this class of about 12 dogs, the trainer has
advised us that Truman's temperament is "exceptional". Both the
trainer and the assistant have told us that Truman is not hyper like many
Goldens seem to be. He truly is well bred and we thank you for
providing us with such a wonderful family member! Of course, we get
many compliments on how beautiful a Golden he is, as well.

Meet "Parker "
| In
2005, Parker's owner writes us:

------------------
Meet "SAM" (left) and "GUS"
(right) and their best friends ...

"Kathy,
We can't thank you enough for
allowing us to have Gus and Sam. Gus and Sam are quite a twosome -
they have such fun together. Sam is obsessed with tennis balls.
Even if we aren't playing with him, Sam makes up his own game with a couple
of tennis balls. Then walks around with both balls in his mouth :-) In
this crazy world we live in, there is something about a dog's calmness and
loyalty that makes you realize it truly is the little things in this life
that make a difference. - Marilyln " |
<-- The photo
on the left is Sam & Gus all grown up in December 2004.
The photo on the right
is one of our favorites --> of Gus as a puppy on Halloween 2001
|

"Dear Kathy,
Mary Claire wanted
Gus to be a witch with her on Halloween - the boys informed her that boys
are not witches! Needless to say, we compromised and Gus became a
warlock for Halloween. We're not sure how Gus felt about all of this,
but he did sit long enough for us to get this photo in his warlock costume.
He has been a wonderful puppy!
Marilyn"
