Winnie Savannah Puppy Just wanted to pass along a few pictures we took of our girl from Savannah’s litter. She’s weighed at 32 pounds this weekend! She’s doing great, seems very happy and is so well mannered. She got to stay with our neighbors for a few days and loved her time with another English Creme. Your tips on nipping helped significantly and has improved so much! Rarely nips any more! Thanks again for such a wonderful dog! - Beth Furever Home Photos

Goose Willow Puppy We adopted one of the golden puppies and just wanted to say thank you. He has brought lots of love and chaos into our lives and we are enjoying every minute of it. We named him Goose. He is growing so fast and is so very smart. Seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home and now he weighs 60 lbs. He is doing great, loves going for walks and lives to fetch. His personality is so funny and so sweet. Thank you again for letting us adopt this lovable bundle of fur. - Maureen & Ross Furever Home Photos

She is a beautiful, sweet, smart, and sassy little girl. We love watching her grow and her personality develop. Ellie loves belly rubs, learning new tricks, short walks, playing fetch, and ALL people and animals. She has been a joy and bright light in our lives after losing our first dog last October. I'm so thankful for Ellie every day. (November Update): Ellie is growing like a weed. She's 55 lbs of playful, and goofy. She loves to play fetch, eat ice cubes, cuddle in bed, sleep on her back, explore the backyard, and greet everyone who walks by. She's the most popular dog in our neighborhood; everyone knows her by name. - Kaitlyn & Dwight Furever Home Photos

I can’t believe how fast she’s grown! Surly is the best dog we could have asked for. She’s so sweet, snuggly, silly, adventurous and the best family dog. She loves ice cubes, eggs, cheese, any soft toy, and her people! Surly is about 51 lbs, the perfect size and healthy. She absolutely loves the snow and to play with her cousin, Luna, a teacup maltipoo. She’s the perfect brewery dog and family member. We’re going to get Surly a pup cup this morning for her birthday and she’s excited to open up presents. - Brooke & Nick Furever Home Photos

Kyra English Golden Retriever Kyra is a beautiful English Cream female with a soft, light cream coat, broad head, and stocky build. Since she is the daughter of Mavrick and Shiloh, she has inherited the same great personality traits as her parents. Kyra is affectionate and gentle yet enjoys playing hard in our outdoor trails. She loves a good game of fetch and playing with our other dogs whenever possible. Thankfully she trains quickly, is patient, and is a well-mannered Golden.

She is so unbelievably calm and patient! Chloe made it through the long winter in Bemidji. She didn’t really like wearing her little boots though. Chloe LOVES swimming, we’ve spent a ton of time with her at the cabin this summer. We get tons of compliments on how calm and incredibly good looking she is! She has the cutest smile and eyebrows too! Her puppy eyes are extremely hard to say no to. Training her wasn’t too hard, she picked up everything very quickly. She is so smart and loves meeting new people. We couldn’t imagine life without her! - Brady & Greta Furever Home Photos

Watson Akasha Puppy We hope you are doing well and just wanted to send a few of update photos of Watson now that he’s about six and a half months. The first one is a camping trip we did this fall with both of our pups, and the second one is our dogs in our back yard enjoying the snow a few weeks ago! The last two pictures are Watson with our friend’s dog, Max, who is also from Vorderosa (he was born in February 2018 and I believe his dad was Coulter)! We can’t believe how similar they look! Watson has been such an amazing puppy- he is so calm, cuddly, loves to play, and loves training (especially when his food is involved)! JUNE 2023 UPDATE: We wanted to share some recent pictures of Watson now that he’s a year old. Watson continues to be the most perfect, happy-go-lucky puppy! He is playful, gentle, and calm. His favorite things are exploring outside, meeting new people, playing with our nieces and nephews, playing tug-of-war, and playing with his big sister, Pippa. We’ve taken a few different training classes with him, and he’s responded really well to training and is always eager to learn new things. He also tried out swimming for the first time this past weekend, and he was a bit cautious at first, but eventually we couldn’t keep him out of the water!! Watson has been the best addition to our lives! - Molly & Zach Furever Home Photos

All of the instructors love him, and he enjoys engaging in class. At the age of two he still has times when he acts like a giant puppy and can be a bit wild, but he is always fun and incredibly sweet. We are also preparing to get his AKC Certified Farm Dog title. There is a club in the Iron Range that is planning to host a test day next spring. At that time we’ll also take the test for the Novice Trick Dog title, and maybe the Intermediate Trick Dog title as well. In the spring we should also be ready for competition rally. He is technically ready for novice rally now; it’s me who needs to work on learning the signs and courses. AUGUST 2023 UPDATE: You may also like to know that the temperament testing you and your grandson did with him as a puppy was spot-on. And the noise desensitizing you did with the litter was also incredibly helpful. He is what I call “bomb-proof;” he isn’t bothered in the least by fireworks, gunshots, thunder, sirens, or alarms. If something does happen to startle him, he completely recovers even before I can tell him it’s okay. He is also very treat motivated, which means he is a dream to train. Of course it helps that he is also quite smart. This year has been extra exciting for him since he decided water and swimming can actually be enjoyable. Perhaps he finally realized he was the only golden retriever who disliked water and should re-evaluate his position on the matter...I told you he’s a smart one. His retrieving instinct is also wonderfully strong; he “retrieves” laundry tirelessly from the hamper. Nothing makes one smile like being greeted by a Golden with a gift (even if it’s dirty socks). - Bonnie & Nicholas Furever Home Photos

I work at a dog-friendly hotel on the University of Minnesota campus. On busy days, she gets to be the "canine concierge" and walk around the lobby getting pets and love from students and guests. Millie does a lot of the promotional content for our dog-friendly program, which involves posing for pictures and being bribed with treats. She is extremely treat motivated so it doesn't take much! My hope is to volunteer in the Children's Hospital bi-weekly. Millie does really well around children since she is so calm and gentle. I cannot wait to see her in this new role. - Kate Furever Home Photos

Misha Bear Savannah Puppy She is the most laid back, loving, smart, beautiful and just plain amazing puppy/dog I have ever had. Our 12 year old lab is adapting well too. Misha thinks she is a toy and Millie just puts up with her… I think she likes having another friend around. I have to mention again how gorgeous she is… the vet spent about 20 minutes telling us how perfect she is in every way and cars slow down when they drive by to look at her. She is getting used to being brushed and puffs up just like a cotton ball. Our boys are quite smitten and I think that’s why they are so helpful. She pees a lot during the day, not going to lie about that, but she can make it through the night - go figure. Luke and I can’t thank you enough for Misha Bear and our correspondence along the way. - Laura & Luke Furever Home Photos
