Here are some “happy endings” that I can share with you. Many buyers take their new puppy home, and after letting me know the puppy is settled, they never contact me again. Others include photos and write off and on for perhaps a year. Some write me from the “dog’s angle” which is very funny. Many share vacation stories they’ve had with their pet.
I usually send these messages to my Mum in Canada who loves to read them. Then I thought that perhaps someone looking at the website would also enjoy them... I contacted the authors and asked permission to share their letters. I promised that I would not include e-mail addresses.
You will note they are located all around the country as well as Canada & Europe. Clearly, for those who don’t live near me, shipping your new puppy is not problematic. |
Hi Norma!
We bought a sweet black Schnoodle from you last year. We wanted to let you know how she's doing and send you pictures as she is about to turn 7 mos!
We named her Annabel Lee and she is adorable and delicious! As you know she is black, but has the most gorgeous brown highlights on her muzzle ... she also has some lil white hairs interspersed through her coat every now and again. The vet says she's healthy as a horse and after we got her fixed it was hard to keep her quiet as she felt right as rain almost immediately!
She is very playful and energetic, loves other dogs (plays with a regular group in daycare 2 days a week) and is great with our friends kids and is VERY affectionate. Mostly though, she is a ball of energy! She is completely submissive to people and other dogs.
As you can see she is GORGEOUS and even at this young age already has a few boyfriends! her favorite boyfriend is Henry the cat who lives upstairs from us. They run around the house and wrestle and play for hours. When they get tired they like to lay down and sleep nose to nose! How cute is that!!!????
She LOVES to play but even more she loves to run. She's very smart too. Although she has been a bit challenging to train (mostly because of her attention span...she just wants to run and jump and play!), she has learned some fun commands like; "excuse me" (she gets out of the way) and she goes to the door to ring some bells when she wants to go out. She also knows, sit, wait, off, drop-it, no, easy and gentle. Her favorite toy is a cow whose limbs and head are attached by velcro. She likes to "kill it" and tear the pieces off! Nice huh!? Her favorite treat is dried chicken wrapped around a rawhide and oddly enough she loves to get her teeth brushed but hates water completely.

Hello Norma,
Hereby an update on Jack. He's the most adorable dog ever. He's still very playful, loves to play with every dog no matter if it's a huge one.
He's well trained now (got his certificate of dogschool) and very attached to us. In the summer holidays in Brittany, France and last week on winterholidays in Austria he went with us (see picture). No one notices him when we went out for dinner. Jack is laying on his blanket under the dinning table and doesn't say word. People - and we the most - reckon he is a sweet, lovely dog.
Hope you are well as we are.
Love Monique. |
Hi. I bought a shnoodle from you. I wanted to tell you how many people asked where I got Bella! Any time someone asks me I give them the name of your website. Everyday I go on this website to look at your cute, available pups.
Bella is so funny! She is our little guard dog. She sits on the arm rest on the couch in front of the windows. So any time a person walks by, or comes to the door she growls and come to me and takes me immediately to the living room!
Sincerely,
Savannah , Age 10
Norma-

Hello, this is Shelly's daughter. Im not sure if you rememeber us im sorry we havent wrote in a very long time. My mom bought Charlie, the black schnoodle from you for my birthday two years ago.
I just wanted to let you know that he is absolutely amazing! He is truely the best dog. He is such like a person, he always wants to be right there with me every second of the day, he also sleeps with me every single night. Charlie is so smart, Every morning I will say " do you wanna treat?", and he starts jumping all around and getting all excited.
He is 2 years old and I want him to stay exactly how he is. Charlie loves to play and altogether he is an amazing dog. I love him so much and just wanted to say thank you so much. :- )

“We got our puppy from Norma in January 2005, and since then, our lives have changed for the better. Our little pup, Teddy, is a bundle of fun. She is energetic, playful, and intelligent and she absolutely loves people. Additionally, despite her small size, she is strong and agile. From the moment we brought her home, we were in love with her. As new puppy parents, we had many questions for Norma and she was always available for advice and suggestions. We are so happy that we went to Norma to get Teddy; it is now impossible to envision our lives without her. Furthermore, my mom has also fallen in love with Teddy and she is now planning to get her very own little puppy from Norma. From the perfect puppies she breeds to the outstanding advice she offers, Norma is simply the best”!

From Jessica's Mom "I recently became the proud owner of the most adorable, angelic black and white fluffy puppy which we gave the French name Didier (nicknamed Didi). Each day that I enjoy Didi, I am thankful that Norma Thompson was available to provide me with this precious pup. Although Didi's purchase was a long distance endeavor, Norma made the experience manageable and far easier than I expected. From providing emailed puppy pictures beginning at Didi's birth to assisting me with every detail so I could get Didi home safe and sound, Norma was reliably available every step of the way. Moreover, Didi is such a remarkably well adjusted pup that the trip was tolerated beautifully and Didi fell right into her comfort zone in new surroundings. There is no way I would have even considered using a different breeder, even if located in my own back yard, for one simple reason : Norma Thompson is quite simply the best in the business"!

"Hi Norma. We bought a little black male puppy born October 21st from Mighty Mouse and Lady. My daughter wanted to take Lady home also. I just wanted to let you know that our little guy, who we named Bentley, is absolutely adorable. We can't take him anywhere without people stopping to pet him or just gush over how cute he is. You did ask if we could let you know how big he got so you would know what kind of pups those two produced together. He is about 5.5 lbs and a little dinky guy. We keep his fur long, ears short with a little goatee on him and people go crazy for it, even people that don't consider themselves 'Poodle People'. Thanks again".

"Norma: Thank you so much for adding so much joy and companionship to my life with my wonderful Parti puppy "BEAU". He is just gorgeous and has the best disposition. In fact he is so laid back by nature that this year I even took him to the fireworks display on the 4th of July. While all the other dogs were barking and running wild, Beau just looked at them with this "What is your problem" look on his face. He sat at my feet and actually watched about three quarters of the fireworks show without ever so much as twitching a muscle. Strangers on the street are constantly stopping me to pet him and ask about him. If I could clone him I'd make a fortune!!!....He is extremely smart and rarely ever barks. There is not one bit of snippiness or arrogance in him, and his health is excellent. He is very playful and active and such a joy to have around. When the doorbell rings he is the first one to the door, never barking but with his tail wagging a mile a minute. If it's someone he has met before or knows, he is so excited to see them that my guests always enter with big smiles on their faces and he gets petted and acknowledged even before I do. Everyone loves him. Thank you also for being so great about keeping in touch with me to see how we are doing. Since I have never owned a dog before it has been great to know that if I were to need advice you'd always be there!! You seem to care so much about each and every puppy that leaves your home. You have been fabulous!! I have recommended you to several people who have asked me where I got Beau because he is SO SPECIAL"!
