“Hi Karen!
It appears that most of
the shyness has already passed. He and Jacob, our 5 year old, are
best friends already. He chases Jake around and tackles him!
Thanks again” |

Denali
|
|
“Dear
Karen & Norbert,
Hello! Our puppy is 5 months old now and we named her Denali.
She arrived from the airport with a handwritten note on her paperwork from
the airlines on what a beautiful pup she was. We agree.
She's playful and energetic, although she's got the unfortunate
habit of urinating when she's excited or anxious. That's a new
experience that we're working on with her. She and our older puppy,
Kea, get along fine. Denali has already surpassed Kea in size but
Kea is faster and more agile on her cornering; Denali has more enthusiasm.
Denali's paws are still huge; we're curious to see if she surpasses the
size of our past malamutes. The neighborhood kids love to visit the
dogs. Denali is a snuggler and
loves being where the family is. She adores having her belly (or any
other part of her) rubbed and has been quick to roll over for a rub since
the day we got her. The other puppy has never been a fan of belly
rubs. We have a terrible time trying to keep water out for the dogs
since Denali is always drinking it then pawing out the bowls till they're
empty. I found it interesting to see that some of the other puppies
on your web site have the same characteristic according to their owners.
Denali gets so excited to watch the kids at the bus stop (by our driveway)
that she jumps up on the rock wall/fence and watches them.
Fortunately she's not been willing to jump over the fence! She's
enterprising--if we leave a window or door open a bit, she'll paw it open
enough to jump through! She's kept the darker tortoise coloring,
with livery-gold undertones in her coat; her face has stayed dark.
Her coat has the shaggier look vs. the sleek, shorter
coat of some of the NAIDs. It seems to reflect her personality.
I walked into the kitchen from doing yard work the other day and
discovered fur on the floor. When questioned, my 3-yr-old son told me that
he had "given Denali a trim". I'm impressed that she sat still for that! Fortunately it was
only a few clips from her shoulder fur. She's just getting beyond
the "chew on everything" stage, but I'm afraid her digging is
here to stay if she follows the trend of our malamutes. She likes to
chew on the wood play house/swing set in the back yard but we haven't had
any splinters to date. She really enjoys running free in the desert
and so far hasn't had any run-ins with plant thorns/needles. She has
much of the personality of our past male malamute--even down to the way
she walks. She's just a happy-to-be-alive-and-part-of-your-world
kind of a dog. We have some friends with a malamute puppy of their
own who baby sit Denali and Kea when we're away. They LOVE Denali,
too. Even their 2-yr-old son looks forward to being
"tackled" by Denali when they're playing. Thanks
Again so much.

"Karen and Family,
Kaya is growing up so fast! By 4 1/2 weeks she was climbing the
stairs and wrestling with the other dogs. She has become much more
independent since then, but still loves her snuggle time. She is so
friendly and instantly loves everyone. She is very smart, she can
sit for treats and goes outside to the bathroom all by herself. She
gets along great with our other dogs and loves playing all day with her
older brother Riley (Border Collie) and her aunt Tucker (lab/husky mix).
Her most favorite thing to do is go hiking and exploring in the woods.
In the last few weeks her coloring has changed so much. When we
first brought her home she was mostly gray with a touch of brown, now the
brown is really starting to show everywhere and is looking a little red
too. We also noticed in one of our pictures that the white patch on
her chest resembles the shape of a bird.
... we are very satisfied customers.
Thanks again to the entire Markel family from; Dave, Heather, Kaya, Riley,
and Tucker"
_______________________________
"Hi Karen,
Here are some updated pictures of Kaya. She is doing great, 7 weeks
and 10 1/2 lbs. She is a very fast learner, she can already sit on
command and go potty outside all by herself. She plays well with our
other dogs, she can really hold her own. She likes Heather's cats
too, they are the perfect play size, for now. Her coloring has
changed so much, she is turning a little reddish/ brown, but still has
quite a bit of gray... I sent a picture her and our border collie
Riley. Thanks again to the entire Markel family for everything.
Dave, Heather, Kaya, Riley and Tucker"

“Hi Karen,
Just wanted to give you an update on Koda.
He's doing great and growing fast. He appears to be very happy and
healthy and will be going to visit the vet tomorrow for a checkup and
shots. He loves going to work with me where he has free roam of
7-10 acres depending on where we are, but he never strays too far. Like
others have also noted, he's very intelligent and behaves well on a
leash and knows the sit command. The kids are also enjoying
him a lot and love to take him for walks to the river where Koda loves
to play in the mud. I saw the 2 pictures on your site and
will be sending some more next week for you. Also, whenever we take
him anywhere, people always ask about him and say how beautiful he
is.
Thanks again for the wonderful dog!!

" I just had a minute and wanted to update you on your Virginia
Beach puppy!- He is asking to be let out to go potty- when left in the
house alone- only goes potty on his "Puppy pads" and knows how
to "sit"!!!!!! At 6 weeks old!!!! He even sits for the
kids. He has also learned not to use his humans as a chew toy- (at
least he has stopped on Kevin and I- we are still helping him learn not to
chew on his human kids- "a firm no stops him") He is amazing-
Michele"
__________________________________
“Hey, Karen, just wanted to let you know- Meeko is now playing
in his
pool!!! It took awhile but he loves it- he tries to catch the fish that
are painted in the plastic of it! He also graduated puppy school
with honors- I even have a bumper sticker that says so!!! Son of Pasasa
and Paahuma, blue in color.”
_______________________________
"Hi Karen,
Well, get this, Meeko is 3 months old now and ......(
sometimes I forget how young he really is) knows, sit, lay down,
off, drop it, out, leave it, and now stay and working
on come. He has full run of the house, no messes and does not tear
anything up while we are gone or are sleeping- also knows at night he is
not allowed on the bed, but once the alarm goes off he is up licking our
faces and whining or us to get up. He is the smartest dog I have ever
seen. When doing the stay command he does not break eye contact with me
until I release him. He lays in the kitchen with us while we eat but
doesn't beg at the table - he always gets his share when we are done
though! Just thought I'd send this update!!” Kevin and Michele
_______________________________
"Hi Karen,
Meeko is sooooo handsome!!! I can see Paahuma in
him with a little of Pasasa. If we could have had you design him for us
(which you kind of did) he is exactly in looks what we wanted- we wanted a
Pahuuma look a like- God knew which litter we were suppose to get from.
enjoy the pictures! P.s- everyone stops us on our walks in the
neighborhood now- He loves everyone- especially all of the kids- he rolls
over on his stomach wanting to be petted. One time Steven was with me and
started yanking on his tail in front of a neighbor on another street- he
could not get over how good his disposition is with Steven. Steven can do
just about anything to him and Meeko just lies there and takes it- and
still loves being with him whenever he can. When walking he pulls me to
any kids that he sees on the way!!"
_______________________________
“Karen,
Just wanted to drop you a quick note about Meeko – He is so different
now that he realizes who God, Judge and Jury of the house is. The time that he bit me I was going up the stairs while he was at
the top with a bone – well this morning it was the same scenario –
this time I was leaving the house telling him to behave himself (no
pooping, peeing or chewing anything) I came up the stairs and leaned down
to him (with a bone in his mouth) and he licked my face wagging his tail.
Prior to your advise I would not have been able to get near him. He has met the broomstick twice since your email for growling at
me. I can’t thank you enough
for being honest with me with what we needed to do – the attitude
adjustment he has is amazing – he has always been 95% the sweetest dog
you have ever met – to everyone – especially the kids. But that other 5% was horrible when he would be like that.
Thanks again for being there when we needed you!

Mukki - Sire~Paahuma
|
“Karen -- I have just recently taken in (in my mind
rescued) a 2 year old NAID named Mukki -- sire M.V.'s Paahuma/dam M.V.'s
Pasasa.
He was originally purchased…in February 2003. He was born
December 29, 2002
.
I have the certificate of authentic pedigree and what looks like
registration papers, although they were never sent in.
Story is this -- last Thursday a friend of mine…called me very upset
because her son and daughter-in-law were considering putting their dog
down because he was so aggressive. She swore he was a sweetheart
and just didn't like R--- and J-------. Well, long story short, my
husband and I decided we just couldn't let them destroy him without at
least giving him a chance. So he arrived Friday night -- (this is
only after they sold him on e-bay, but that buyer two days later said to
come get him he was too mean) - so I got him third hand actually.
It was obvious when he arrived why he was aggressive -- he had a spike
pronged choke chain on him and is VERY sensitive to any movement around
his neck. Well, as soon as R--- left - the collar came off and I
swear that dog did a dance around me. It has only been
three days and we are just in love with him -- he is pretty good with my
six cats and is wonderful with my 11 year old sheep dog/sheppard mix and
three month old lab mix puppy -- however, he is very frightened of the
horses. I'm sure he'll get use to them soon enough.
Question for you -- what does "Mukki" mean? R--- said it
means child and J------- said it means friend.
Mukki is approximately 120-130 lbs -- very intimidating looking -- very
wolfish -- silver grey with amber eyes -- beautiful!!!
He woke me up the very first morning by licking me in the face -- so
much for the aggressive mean attack dog!!
We have had a few challenges -- but we TALK about it -- we don't beat
him -- and he is responding to our way of communication wonderfully --
in fact -- after three days -- I would say he is becoming a very happy
dog!
To go from a backyard 24/7 by himself -- to always with other animals or
people -- he is much happier.
He doesn't appear to have had a wonderful start -- but at only two years
old -- hopefully his next 17 years will make the first two just a bad
memory.
I would love to talk to you about training methods to help us help Mukki
overcome what aggression he does have -- mostly with his neck and coming
in and out of doorways.
After three days he now lets us handle his collar area -- but he is
still very cautious and trying real hard to trust us -- even to the
point that when he growled and grabbed my hand because I touched his
neck and he didn't like it --he did not bite down -- just held it
and glared at me -- I think he was just trying to tell me that I
shouldn't touch his neck and that he really didn't want to hurt me.
I believe he is a dog that I will never own, but someday (hopefully
soon) he will decide he owns us.
Look forward to hearing from you.

REALLY big. Actually, she is a great dog and has a wonderful
personality. The whole family loves her very much!!! Raven
weighs about 50 lbs and she is about 95% housebroken. She has turned
dark, not red like her mother. We get compliments where ever we go
about her calm character and her gentleness with children and other
animals. She would rather lick you than bite you. She travels
well in the car and has gone on camping trips several times and loves her
visits to PetSmart." |

“Hi Karen,
I just wanted to write
you and let you know that the puppy you provided us with is great.
He has been named Tonto and he is having a lot of fun.
He seems quite
intelligent and he will do absolutely anything for a piece of meat.
He likes other dogs but we are finding that a lot of them are scared of
him!! lol!! The only ones who don't whimper away are a
couple Rottweillers we know.
He has seemed to open up
a lot in the last couple of weeks, and he gets better every day, even
showing more affection than we hoped for.
Thank you very much
again.
Sincerely,
Andrew”

“Hi Karen,
I dont know if you remember me but I purchased my puppy from you in
February of last year and I thought you may be interested as to how he
was doing. My name is Andrew and I am from
Barrie
, On. I have named my dog Tonto and he is just over a year old, he
is the son of Saranac Sam and Pasasa, a red-tortoise shell.
Tonto has been a spectacular addition to our family, being extremely
friendly, and absolutely caring. I have never encountered such a
peaceful and good-natured animal. He loves to excercise and
explore and my recent obedience training has made our lives together
much easier.
He has just recently passed 120 lbs, but he is not at all overweight,
just large framed. I am constantly being stopped on the street and
commented about his beauty, and friends of the family have insisted they
will be in touch with you soon.
Tonto is very kind to our other Bichon frises, even when they often seem
reluctant to accept him. It is for this reason that play times
have been arranged with other friend's labradors, so he can play with
dogs of relatively equal size and age.
He really enjoys our cottage and cuddling with me on my bed is always
expected. Chewing seems to be his only major vice we haven’t
been able to cure him of, so we must always ensure there is a lot of
rawhide around.”
