Dear Mary Jo,

We have had a ball with “Cocoa” Jasmine’s new puppy! That is one of the 3 names she had narrowed down. She ended up opting for the name Cocoa.

We found a place, on M-15 just outside of Davison, which sells the food Cocoa eats so I got a huge bag of that particular kind of puppy food. The large bag is in preparation for round two coming on Wednesday…Mr. Freckles!

After that, we went to PetSmart and had a field day buying all kinds of toys, cloths, as well as a dog carrier that holds two dogs and which fits on the owners chest…facing out. It’s the neatest thing. It looks similar to one you’d use if you were carrying a child. It holds up to 2 dogs and will hold up to 20 pounds of dogs. So, it’s perfect! Cocoa looked so adorable in it. I can hardly stand it! He’s just so cute! ha ha ha!

We then went to a resturant, with the dog in this carrier, which was on Jasmine.

Cocoa was so quiet that no one even knew she was on Jasmine’s chest. One lady thought it was a stuffed dog! No one said a word. So we didn’t get kicked out!

Each time the waitress left our table, we’d sneak Cocoa his glass of water and give him a sip and then a nibble of his food! After he would have a bit of his ‘dinner’ and then a drink of water from his glass…we would quietly chuckle.

After that, we headed home. And OH MY GOSH…sis this dog came alive when we got home!

We have a 3,000 square foot home, with 20 foot ceilings. Most of my ceilings have fans on them.

Cocoa became so engrossed with the fan in our living room which was on…(don’t even ask me why…lol)…that he ran in circles….all the while looking up at that fan.

Then he actually played hide and seek with Jasmine. I am not even kidding. It was just belly hurting hysterical to watch.

Jasmine would hide, while holding that rope toy we bought from you. And then Cocoa would sneak up on her…from behind…and he would actually grab that rope and then run like heck and hide behind me!

Then…when Jasmine found him and would take the rope…he would chase her round and round the coffee table. I just laughed my guts out. It was so cute. OMG…he is darling. WHAT a personality. Your daughter was completely right on that!

Cocoa is so tired by now. He is currently out like a light bulb. He’s been playing for hours!

It’s a bit chilly in here (I have my furnace dial down automatically when it becomes night time) and Cocoa was shivering from being outside. So when he came in and was cold…we put him in his crate, snuggled him on his new blue baby blankee, and then sort of placed his crate near the fireplace so he’d warm up.

He just LOVED it! In fact, he sat watching the flames for so long, that suddenly he fell over. I ran quick to see if he was okay…only to discover that the little clown was sound asleep! I woke him up to be sure he was ok. He was! He was just pooped! Isn’t that so hilarious? Watching the fire made him so sleepy…that he literally fell asleep while watching the flames.

I can’t stop giggling over that.

I didn’t think I wanted to deal with a dog. But he is so wonderful. I am really looking forward to Freckles arriving. We got them both little matching gold tags this evening, each with their name and our phone number engraved on them. Not that they will EVER be left unattended but just in case the unthinkable should happen and they get loose. Realistically if they got out, I don’t know if they’d be returned to us. They are pretty darned cute and it may tempt someone to be bad and keep them.

I wanted to thank you for switching out the pups for me. I do love Scruffy. He grabbed my heart strings like none of the others did. But Jasmine laughing today, and more than she has in a long time, has made this entire thing worth the effort and the money. You can’t put a price on a child displaying inner happiness. It’s so valueable. She really wanted Freckles. I loved that one too and so I’m not dissappointed at all. I just hope some will see the true beauty of little Scruffy. He has a wonderful disposition. I think he’s a scream! Just darling! I hope you find him a great home.

Thanks again…

We purchased an adorable grey and white  puppy from Maryjo back in Dec 2011.  His name is Barney and he has brought so much joy to our lives!  I am on disability and home much of the time and he has been such wonderful company for me.  He is a darling little guy!   Everyone here considers him a family member; our 18 year old twin boys, Jake and Josh love playing with him.  To my husband and myself, he is like our first grandchild!

He is very smart, funny, affectionate and playful. He still loves to play with his many little animal toys and carry them around with him, even when he goes outside!  He is very fond of my husband Len and enjoy playing games with him, like tug or war and running outside playing frisbee.  We were able to train him very easily, due to his high intelligence and his loyalty to us.

We just can’t say enough about Maryjo and her Buttercups and other puppies as well!  We highly recommend her as a breeder.  Barney has been very healthy, has never been sick.  Her puppies have a wonderful temperament; you never have to worry about them around young children.  Another great thing is that she is always there for you if you have questions or comments, even years later and her 5 year guarantee is a huge bonus!

I was on your website going through all the wonderful information you provide and thought I would drop you a note. I don’t know if you remember us but my husband Al and I purchased our little “Rosita” from you this past Spring. I’ve got to tell you she is the sweetest little lady weighing in at a whole 5.2 pounds! She is so smart and was so easy to housebreak, and you were completely right when I kept asking over and over about shedding – she does not shed at all! She has won over the hearts of all our family! I am sending a picture of her after her first date at the groomers. They said she just laid still like a perfect lap dog! The little pink flower they put on her was adorable – it didn’t stay on too long though, just enough for a couple pictures! I’ve attached one to show you how cute she is! Thank you for selling us our Rosita and for all the great information on your website! Love looking at the pictures too!
Take care,
Jeannine

Hello Maryjo,

Scotty I purchased in the Spring of 2011.  He was the last one left from The American Idol

litter.

Just wanted you to know he is the best dog I have ever owned.  Scotty is loving, loyal,

healthy and happy.

I also just changed VETS!  Our Scotty is now 22.2 pounds and gorgeous.  My new vet is

very impressed with him and even told me he came from an EXCELLENT BREEDER and

it is obvious!  WOW, BE PROUD!  Holistic 100% for my two dogs and I’m following everything

I have learned from you!  THANK YOU!

Your new web site is GREAT!

God Bless You and Your Wonderful Family

Maryjo,

I forgot also to tell you—–when I purchased Scotty from you——–I started taking him to

WORK with me from Thursday until Saturday——–I took care of a lady who had a closed

head injury and demenia!  She passed away in October of 2011.

Scotty was a great therapy puppy for her.  She was calm the minute we arrived until

we left.  Scotty entertained her at all times.  She would walk with a walker and he knew

to stay and sit and watch.  He would lay under the table by her when she ate.  Her family

was thankful and grateful that Scotty and I were such a team with their Mother.

We had 24/7 care for her and Scotty and I were her favorite!  We added fun, love and

comfort to her!  I took him to the hospital when she was passing away. 

My Mother will be 90 in January and Scotty loves her and she him.  Marty my 6 year old

male poodle shares Scotty no matter what.

I feel so blessed having Scotty!

Thank You so much!  Your one of a kind!

Maryjo,
We are so extremely happy with Buster. We had alot of names on the table but after a family vote Buster was the winner. We are enjoying him so much and he is adjusting well. We are very grateful to you. We were so heartbroken when we lost Kiwi in August.
You are a class act!!
I’ll be in touch.

Hello,

Thank you so much for LUCY. She is the sweetest, cutest, most adorable puppy ever born. She is doing really good with adapting, training, socializing and growing into the focal point of our family. Only GOD could have created something so perfect. More to come, but my computer skills are lacking, so my husband will send u pictures soon. THANKS

Hi Mary Jo,
I just wanted to e-mail and tell you how much my girls and I love our new addition to our family! He is so laid back and happy. The girls have to be told to put him down and play with him. He would let them carry him around all day! He has learned how to play fetch on his own, and is very entertaining with his silly little antics (like playing with one piece of food and pouncing on it before he eats it!). The girls tell me almost daily, “Mommy you picked the perfect dog!” He fits in our family just right.

Thank you again,
Keep raising sweet little puppies for others to love!
