Hello Rhonda,
This is Darlene Dixon, I purchased Eldon and had him shipped to to my
son in
Rochester, NY on 4/28. I've been thinking about emailing you
an update on Eldon, so here it is!
My son named him "Penner", short for
Fred Penner who was (maybe still is a children's show host).
He played a guitar and sat on a log in the woods. He always had a
"lesson" for his audience and my son loved the show. One day, he was
about 3 years old at the time, he asked me if Fred Penner lived in our
backyard. We had woods behind our house at that time and I gently
said no Eric, I don't think he does but you never know! Of course we
have since giggled about Eric the little boy with Eric the man (he is
24 now) about Fred Penner!
"Penner" is the sweetest little dog. He is very attached to Eric and
very loyal. Eric has taught him to sit, shake, roll over and speak.
He spends lots of time with Penner and takes very good care of him.
"Pen" likes to run up the stairs, go in Eric's room and get a sock
out of the dirty clothes basket, then stands at the top of the stairs
to entice Eric to chase him. If Eric closes his bedroom door - no
problem for Penner, he just goes in Eric's roommate Chris' room and
gets one of his socks! Of course as a dog lover myself with 2
Jack Russell Terriers,
I could go on and on.
So rest assured that Penner is well loved and taken care of.
Thank you for making it so easy for us to make Penner a part of our
lives!
Sincerely,
Darlene

I thought you and Crystal may like to see pictures of Kelsey from her
first birthday and more. Kelsey is the sweetest most compassionate
dog. She definitely is a mama's girl. We are practically inseparable.
Kelsey loves to go shopping with me. Every time we go out more than one
person comes up to me and says that she is the cutest dog they have ever
seen. Most people come up to us to see if she is real. They think she
is a stuffed teddy bear. Especially when her coat has grown out some.
It is funny how different she can look depending on the growth of her
coat.
Some people have stated that Kelsey and I should be in one of those
pictures of how dogs and owners look alike. For a long time now I have
been perming and dying my hair red. As my hair color lightens it
becomes closer and closer to Kelsey's shade.
. . . . .
Kelsey and I definitely are a perfect match. I love her to pieces and
she returns this emotion.
Sincerely, Cheryl

The puppy arrived on time with no issues at the airport. He seemed
scared and shy at first, but it was probably just jet lag. He is
happy and healthy, and loves his new home! Our other
dachshund puppy
loves her new playmate also. I was a bit skeptical about buying a
puppy over the internet, but it was very simple and I am very glad
that I did. Thank you for making the process so easy! Couldn't be
happier with the puppy or buying process.
Sincerely,
Jeff |

Just wanted to let you know that I picked up josh at the airport
yesterday. He's a little shy and confused about everything I think. But
he's warming up to me. Looks better than the pictures! Thanks again, the
entire process was a pleasure.

Hello! We drove to El Paso TX today to pick up Wallie (now Ouija). He
arrived just fine! I was so happy to see him! We stopped to let him go
potty and to eat and drink a little bit. He was a little cold at first
but was very happy and excited once he got in the car. We made it home
just fine and he's sleeping in his kennel as we speak! He's had a few
accidents in the house but we'll keep working on that. Thank you so much
again for everything! He'll fit right in perfectly with our family!

Rhonda,
We were skeptical about this process and after talking with you, I could
hear the care and love you give your puppies. We were not alone at the
airport, there was a mother with her two beautiful little girls there
also picking up a puppy.
Buster was fine, he was a little timid at first but I took him out of
his carrier and we fell in love instantly. The flight did not stress
him out at all as he was prancing around like a
Clydesdale , quite a bounce in his step. He has also gone potty
outside already so we are just besides ourselves with how well this all
turned out.
We will be looking to buy a girl Brussels griffon from you in the future
so Buster can carry on Bandits blood line.
Thank you for taking such great care with what becomes peoples babies!
Thank you for taking the time with me during this process as well God
Bless you and yours Rhonda, continued success to you, we will surely
refer you to all that want to purchase a puppy.

I just wanted to thank you for
everything... You are one of the best breeder, took the time to answer
all my questions and explained everything I needed and wanted to know
about my baby Denton. He arrived with all documentations as you had
stated also cleaned and not smelling like other puppies. He is a great
joy to have. I have changed his name to Tiger because he really thinks
he is one.... Again it has been a pleasure dealing with you... You are
GREAT!!!!!! Thank you so very much!!!!

Hi
Rhonda,
I took Rita to the vet today and everything was in order and Rita is a
fine healthy puppy! Her shots are all up to date. She is really good
natured. Even the vet commented that she was so patient for a puppy. . .
As we discussed at one point, buying a puppy over the internet is
difficult. It is a grand leap of faith. Thanks for providing us with a
healthy happy puppy.

Rhonda,
You have really provided
a valuable service with your website. After the passing of our dog
Sadie from cancer we didn't know if we could look for another family
member anytime soon. While browsing online I came across your
website and started looking at the various breeds. I have a family
member who has a Yorkie and it was very intellegent and had a great
personality. Long story short I saw a pair of 5 month old brothers
listed and imediately felt that they were too irresistable and
shouldn't be seperated so that is what started the process of
adoption.
Even though they've only
been here a few days we can tell it was meant to be. Thank you for
the great job you do both on the web site and on the phone.
Sincerely,
Dave and Chris Shute

Hi rhonda,
We are writing to thank you soo much for our new beautiful puppy!
We have renamed her Bella. She is absolutely a wonderful, loving,
playful dog. If I had my choice of any puppy in the world I would still
have chose her, she is a perfect fit for our family. She seemed a little
nervous when she first came home but she has already warmed up to all of
us. She plays when you want her to play and she lays when you want her
to lay. I honestly can't say enough good things about this puppy, i am
in love. She is just so gorgeous too. My kids are thrilled with her,
they haven't stopped playing with bella since she came through the door,
and she loves it. Thank you for being so nice and for answering ALL of
my questions, i know there were alot. You really made the whole process
so easy. And the price was more affordable even with the shipping than
buying a dog on sale at our pet store!
Again, thanks so much,
Allen and Daniela Laquidara |
| 11/1/07 - PUPPY FOR ADOPTION:
hello there! chum, who is renamed charlie due to the younger children
in the house wanting to change his name. anywho, chum/charlie is just
precious! he's such a good boy, rarely barks, very playful, loving,
and he gets along with the cat that lives in the house. he's not
housebroken yet but we're trying. he knows to go on the newspaper and
has a spot outside in the backyard where he likes to do his stuff.
he's very nice to other dogs and little children. his shot knot is
getting better, i see hair growing back which is great. everyone
finds him just beautiful and a very nice pet for our family.
thank you rhonda!

Just wanted to let you know that we picked up the puppy yesterday and
he is everything and more then I expected. He started
bonding with me right away. He is a snuggler and loves to
get up on my shoulder to lay when I am in my recliner. He cried like
a baby last night at bed time. Just like when my daughter
was a baby, I got out of bed to go to him. He ended up sleeping
with us for a bit. I have a feeling he is going to know how to
get his own way before the end of the week. He's going to be
spoiled rotten! Thanks so much.
Sincerely,
Lisa

Rhonda, we love our little Lillie Bell SO much. She's growing,
being sassy, and just such a good girl. Our girls call her
"Silly Lillie", and that is just about right. Thank
you for letting me be her momma. I love her a bunch!

We are very happy with August, the Airedale puppy
we got from you a month ago. He arrived on schedule and got a
clean bill of health from our vet. He was pretty easy to
housebreak even though we didn't use a crate or anything special. We
just scolded when he made a mistake and gave him treats when
he went outside and he caught on in less than a week.
He's great with kids and follows our cat around everywhere but
doesn't try to hurt him. He just wants to play. He's
obviously intelligent and wants to please us so that helps a lot.
My wife saw his sisters are still on your website
and said she wishes we had more room so we could adopt them too.
We can't do that but if Aryana and Annalee are anything like
their brother, they are something special and I hope they find the
homes they deserve.

Thanks again,

He is such a great little puppy, hardly any mistakes and such a joy to
have around all the time, he spends the whole day with me at work, loves
to greet people when they come into the store. He had his last set of
shots and will start heart worm next week. Willie has gained 3 pounds
since he first arrived here. I also want to thank you again.

We adopted two poodle puppies Monday, June 25, 2007, an apricot - Honey
and a very small black and white - Happy. They are so much
fun. They
are gaining like they should. Honey has gained a pound and
Happy about
1/2 a pound. Still working on the housebreaking but their
sleeping
though the night came the second night we had them. |

Rhonda-
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for "Prince". He looks
exactly like the picture on your web site. I have to admit I was a
little worried about the whole online purchasing of a Puppy, and an
expensive one at that. You have really made me believe that there are
good honest people out there, and not to be so pessimistic about
everyone.
Thank Again-
You have definitely earned some references on my behalf.

Rhonda,
I just wanted to let you know I received Mercer yesterday and I am
extremely satisfied with the whole expereince of working with you.
Receiving the kennel, vet records, puppy food, info about caring for the
puppy, etc. was EXTREMELY helpful. Mercer is such a happy puppy and I can
tell he received good care with you. Please feel free to use me as a
reference for future customers.

It was wonderful working with Rhonda to adopt our yorkipoo, whom we
have renamed "Enzo".
The transaction and shipping went smoothly. Rhonda always makes
herself available to answer any questions or concerns that we have
about our new family member. If I decide to adopt again (and I may in
the near future) I would adopt through Rufftimes again.
Thank you again, Rhonda. It has been a very pleasant
association. We will keep you posted as to our little guy's
progress and promise to send pictures soon.

Dear Rhonda and All,
I just wanted you to know how much we love our new dog...Her name
is now Maggie Mae, she is wonderful. I took her to our vet today and
they loved her. She will get more shots in three weeks. She is very
funny and cute and our other dog seems to love her. Im trying to find
a home for the last Havamalt you guys have. I would take another
picture of her with her fluffy fur so they can see how she looks now.
Im so excited to have her and so is my family. You guys did a great
job and were true to what you said I would love to buy another dog
from you . Also Im going to put the word out and send your site
around. I think its wonderful and you can tell these dogs are truly loved
.
Love, Laurie Sorensen
Dear Rhonda,
You guys have got to breed more Havamalts....she is so cute and we
adore her. She is still tiny. She is very funny and very
loving. Please let me know if you are going to have more puppies. I
may have a few people who want them. Her name is Maggie Mae...she is
doing great. She seems to be very happy living here in Minnesota!
She loves her new sister. Lucy and her play all the time. I will
send you a pic soon. My daughter needs to load the computer with
some!
Love, Laurie Sorensen

is mutual.

| Hi Rhonda, Got the puppy on time. He is so cute. Very
happy about the purchase. My granddaughter is going to love him. My
daughter came over to see him as soon as I got home. She wanted to take
him home right then. I will be giving him to my Granddaughter on
Christmas Eve. Thanks so much for shipping him on time for that. I had
five people wanting to see the puppy at the airport before I could get
out of the terminal. They all didn't even know what a Min Pin was? I for
sure could of sold at least one, if I had one to sell! Thanks
again, and have a Merry Christmas! Bruce |

Well, they finally made it here. They arrived about
midnight last night. Lots of flight delays, and bad weather.
They are fine and did real well last night. Both of them are so
perfect....... I am very happy with both of them. Thanks for
everything and I will send pictures real soon.
Thanks Rick

Hi Rhonda,
Well, I now have my "beautiful" Baby Girl
that I have named Delaney Grace
probabably Gracie for short, and I'm the happiest new
Mom on this planet
that you can imagine. lol
My Baby Girl is everything I dreamed and wished for in
a little Maltese Baby,
she is perfect in every way. That little teeny tiny
doll face just won my heart the
minute I laid eyes on her, I haven't came down to earth
yet. ha/ha
She did wonderful on the trip home, no upset tummy or
any signs of being
stressed out with new surroundings and new Mom ( which
by the way, she
already knows I'm her new Mommy), so I'm just so elated
at how well the
transition has went.
I have an appt. tomorrow with my Vet for our "well
puppy check", and if you
could forward or relay my message to Carl to let him
know how happy I'am
and how well the baby is doing....I would appreciate it
so much. Also, I need
for Carl to email me her shot & worming records, or
just email the info. of
when it was administered and what shots were given.
That way my Vet can
take it from there!
And tell Carl Thank-You, Thank-You, and Thank-You
again, for raising the
cutiest sweetest healthy little babies that ordinary
Folks like me can afford
to have the pleasure of having one. Most babies like
his are way toooo out
of reach for us ordinary Folk, and I feel so blessed
that all my searching has
finally paid off. I will give Carl the best reference
if he ever needs me to! I will
be more than happy to spread the good news of how
healthy and beautiful
his puppies are. I will probably be a lifetime customer
myself, because I may
want another Baby Girl just like my Gracie maybe in
another year. And my
Friend Grandma Vi will definately be wanting a Baby or
two, as well! She fell
in-love my Baby, and held her all the way back to her
house after meeting
Carl in Henryetta.
Anyway, I will keep everyone posted on how baby Gracie
is doing with photo's posted periodically.
Again.....Thank You All So Much from the bottom of my
Heart!
Gail & Baby Gracie
