Hi Sue:
Just finished reviewing your web site as it's been ages since I had time to
see what you have been up too. Looks like you have a lot going on
especially if you breed all three ladies in June. How many people are on
your waiting list for your next litters? After seeing all the black and
white bundles of joy on your web site I get that Old English Sheepdog desire
to have a puppy again, but I know I can't as Saddie and Ivie are more than
enough to handle and care for. But the puppies are just so cute, I just
want one or two. Plus where we live if you have
three dogs you are considered a kennel and must pay much higher fees for
licenses. Not that that is a real problem, but if I could, I'd have a
zillion OES as they are just so loving and dedicated. Who wouldn't want as
much affection as they can get?
Ivie has turned into a loving and caring dog, she's 4-1/2 now, still a crazy
car rider and so anxious to do anything that involves going somewhere.
Lately she's turned into a chipmunk/squirrel watcher and spends hours
waiting for them to come down the tree after she's cased them up it. The
first thing she does when we let her out in the morning is run
as fast as she can to the wood pile where the chipmunks and squirrels call
home. We just stop and laugh at her thinking she'd ever be able to catch
one of them, she is fast, but they are
faster. If only she could climb a tree.
She and Saddie get along great, although Saddie is 7 and is starting to just
want to relax and take life easy and then Ivie comes along and starts
pulling on her collar or ears and tries to
get Saddie to chase her and play. Most of the time Saddie gets mad enough
and does what Ivie wants and that is to chase her and it turns into play.
Well I better go now as I've taken far too much of your time. Just thought
I'd let you know how Ivie is doing.
Thanks for always keeping in touch.
Jane, Ivie and Saddie Nevils

Hi Sue -
Always a pleasure to give a
reference. Here's an update on my now 1-year-old Sadie: she weighs 71 pounds and
is the spunkiest, smartest OES we've ever owned! She is also the darling of the
neighborhood, we stop traffic when we take her and Farlee on their evening
walks. When the time
comes we totally plan on getting another pup from you, a few years down the road
(maybe a baby brother for the girls?). Keep those references coming, I
also invite them to come and see her (by the way, Suzanne's Ziggy is doing
great, too!)
Sheepie Hugs to All -Hope
