Hello Kitsy
Happy
Holidays to you. You wanted to know Shiloh's height. It looks like she is
measuring it at 18 inches.
I had her in Agility
but she kept outsmarting the teacher when she was off leash. She would get
one inch before and make a beeline to go visit the other dogs. It was like
she planned what she was going to do ahead of time so back to obedience we
go. This time with a different teacher for a new experience. Shiloh is very
smart in fact I think she is a little too smart. She figures everything out
to her advantage. So she is going into advanced obedience and Conformation.
On leash activities for now

Hi Kitsy!
Just wanted to give you an update on
Izzy who is by Primrose x Ransom 2016. She is absolutely the best dog I’ve
ever had and I’d love to be able to have another someday! She is so smart
and I get compliments on her beauty everywhere we go. We will be competing
in our first big agility trial this summer and she is wicked fast

Hi Kitsy,
Merry Christmas! We thought that you
might like to see some recent photos of Peachy (Ransom & Jinx, 5/05/16). She
is such a happy-go-lucky dog, full of mischief, but sweet. She & our other
two dogs (Rudi & Tilli) get along really well. Peachy & Tilli are always on
"coyote watch" together and are usually partners in crime in any other
mischief that they can get into! Peachy really is a joy to have around. So
glad that she joined our family.
Hope all is well with you and your
household!
Anthony & Amy

Hello Kitsy
Hope you are enjoying your
Holliday’s. Just wanted to send you a picture of Rosie and Rocko. She is
definitely part of the family. It didn’t take her long. She is so smart and
beautiful. She is amazing with the kids too. Thank you again. She is
everything we could have asked for and more.
Thanks, Ryan

Hi Kitsy,
I just wanted
to give you another update on the puppy (we named him Chase)!
Since last
time he’s had his first vet visit (everything went great, he even slept
through his second round of shots), grew ~5 pounds (up to 18), made many new
dog friends in our building, and had his first few puppy socials.
He’s really a fantastic buddy, very curious and confident, and plays great
with everybody, even trying to herd older dogs! He’s also mostly house
trained by this point, with us only having to take him out once per night at
most. Training is coming along fairly easily, he sits on vocal command
already and picks up most things quite quickly - we’re even running out of
puzzles for him!
I’ve attached two pictures of
him - one with a ball that is way too big for him but that he loves anyways
and one of his many sleeping positions (apparently he enjoys sleeping on his
back like a human).
Thanks again for raising a great puppy,
-David and
Daphne

Hello Kitsy, here are some photos of Lucy at 7
months old. She has been such a wonderful girl to my family. She’s so sweet,
and loves to be right next to me at all times!
You weren’t wrong when
you told me she will be the toughest one because she had all brothers in her
litter. Her colors change and they are getting so vibrant now. And she’s
getting so big, she’s hitting about 39 lbs.
Thank you so much for
letting me add this wonderful girl to my life. You definitely have the best.
We look forward to adding one more to our family in the future.

Hi Kitsy,
Here are some
photos of Blue (Loretta X Sutter 8/31/18)
with his new family taken today. He is the sweetest little guy and he and
Chelsea, our English Bulldog, get along famously. He loves to play, he’s
doing well sleeping, he looooves “puppy massage” and will lie in our arms or
on the ground and have his tummy and paws rubbed! You ask him to “give me
some love” and he gives your kisses. He’s such a gorgeous dog and we’re all
smitten with him. He has one blue and one brown eye and is very well behaved
and is learning boundaries. He’s wonderful!!!
Our trainer is crazy about him and noted that he obviously came from an
incredible breeder, that he was a superior dog. He said he sees a lot of
dogs and he wanted me to let you know how impressed he was.
Thank you so
much for giving him to us. We love him!
Will keep you updated on his
progress.
Thanks Kitsy! Marina Cohn

Kitsy,
Just wanted to let you know everything
checked out great with Rosie (Loretta
X Sutter 8/31/18). The vet said she couldn’t have been a healthier puppy.
Stool check was clean as well. Her and Rocko are getting along great. Thank
you again for such an awesome puppy. This is my second dog from you and
every one who sees either one wants to know where I got it. This is also the
second dog the vet wanted to keep. I will send you more updates and pics.

Hi Kitsy
Here is a
picture of Duke (Arabella x Ransom 09/2014).
I showed him for the first
time 3 weeks ago in the City of Industry. He got a Blue Ribbon. I was very
pleased for his first time out. I thought you would like to see what he
looks like now that he has grown up. And he is just such a sweet guy
Thank you again for such a wonderful guy

Dear Old West,
We thought it was time to send you
an updated picture of Aimee, born March 1st 2015
(Loretta X Ransom). We retired to Idaho on a small 2 acre place where
Aimee has it all - snow, water, fishing and lots of space for agility and
running. And when the neighbor’s Angus break out, Aimee is the first to
notice begging to be let out to herd them back in. Aimee is awesome! Loyal,
strong, smart and gorgeous - thanks for our girl!

Dear Kitsy,
We hope this email finds you well! I
don't even know where to start in regards to how much we love your dogs!
It's hard to believe but Chloe turns 11 this year...she was from Cinder's
Nov 07 litter. We were familiar with herding dogs (having a Border Collie
when we got Chloe) but nothing could prepare us for the joy Chloe that is.
She is brilliant and has the best temperament of any dog we have ever owned.
She goes everywhere with us, she has moved cross country with us 4 times and
is a frequent guest at many hotels. We love her so much that when talk came
of getting another dog, even though we now live in Connecticut we decided we
had to have another puppy from you. We are so excited to be welcoming
another Old West puppy to our family. Thank you, we can't wait for the new
arrival. And thank you again for breeding what I feel are the finest
Aussie's in the world. The Malone Family

Hi Kitsy,
I have often thought how almost 16
years ago we rec'd our first of two dogs from you. Presley (Willie x Amanda
9/10/02-black tri) and Kiwi (Willie x Amanda
8/02/03-blue merle). Attached
are a couple of pictures I sent you all those years ago and a couple of
amusing ones. After almost 16 years, Presley passed away tonight peacefully.
She was a wonderful dog and so much fun! Kiwi is 15 years now and still
going strong. She is still a mischievous one with the cutest personality.
Presley and Kiwi brought us so much joy over the years. Looking at your
site's puppy page, reminds me how we started our road to acquiring two of
the best dogs ever! Perhaps we will be fortunate to have another Old West
Aussie in the future! All the best and thank you for our gems.
Kindest regards,
~jodeene

I just wanted to share a couple of pics I took of
Roxy (Feathers X Tuff 12/12) & Eli
(Jinx X Ransom 4/18) this morning. Eli has
been with us a little over a month now and has adjusted to his new home as
if he’d always been here. He is sweet and smart just like Roxy. They really
get along great which is what we were hoping for. Thanks again for another
amazing dog!
Sincerely,
The Eiberger family

Hello Kitsy
Here is a
recent picture of Shiloh (Sutter
x Primrose 10/17). She is getting big and
her coat is growing out. She still acts like a puppy and loves to play.

Hi Kitsy,
I wanted to update you about Kona (Ransom x Jinx 4/11/2017) on her first birthday. It's been a very active past year with this high energy pup, always ready to run, jump, and play, and so very smart. She has learned many commands and tricks and is a favorite at the park where she will fetch a ball or frizbee for literally hours.
When I arrived to take her home, you said to me that you thought I would enjoy her personality....you were right! All that puppy play she foisted on her litter mates translated to a very energetic and relentlessly curious puppy once we brought her home. She is absolutely beautiful, healthy, and a sweet and loyal companion. I'm attaching some pictures of her so you can see what a beautiful dog we have.
I want to thank you so very much for sharing this amazing Aussie with me and my family. Congratulations to Ransom and Jinx for their new litter!
Gratefully,
Charlie Bimer

Hi Kitsy
She is growing fast and very smart. She already sits,
stays, come when called, down stay, leave it, watch. Shiloh (Sutter X
Primrose 10/17) is a dream come true.
Thank you
