Hello Sue,

Time has certainly flown since we purchased our female puppy from you.  Harriet was born on your farm 28 January 1998.  Her parents I believe were Tyr and Freya.

Harriett has been pretty healthy, and is still the boss.  She is now 9 years old and counting.  She is spoiled rotten, living a life of luxury - who needs a dog basket when you've got the leather couch!!

Had a bit of a scare last year when her new (eager beaver) young vet thought she might have Cushing's Syndrome.  Fortunately the tests came back all clear, and life goes on.  She hates to ride in my car because she knows its either a vet trip or a grooming trip - neither of which are her favorites!!

She still shows weird characteristics.  She grins a lot! And twists her body in excitement.  Looks like she's having a seizure!!!  She loves attention, and knows how to get it.  She doesn't ever get into mischief - actually she's been excellent and trustworthy - but she bugs the life out of us for a tickle or a pat.

She is still a showstopper when we go out.  Everyone loves her. 

Am sending a few recent photo's of our dear gal!

Your web site is so much fun.  You've done a great job on it.  Hope your health has turned around Sue, we here in Edmonton thank you for introducing us to the world of OES.

Sincerely,

Liz and Mike Barker and Harriet.
