| Name = Ruth Lowery 08/25/2009 Litter # = 04/09/2009 Dog's Name = Spaceman Spiff (formally Frankie) Subject = Five months old Comments = First I want to say that I found this breeder online doing a search for boxer puppies. I was looking specifically for a male fawn boxer. I wanted to purchase the puppy as a wedding gift to my then fiance'. He had had a beloved boxer who had passed away about 14 months prior. My intial contact with Jamie was via this link. She called me that afternoon. As we live in Washington DC area, I was not able to go see the pups right away, but I correspond several times with her. She is very knowledgable of the breed and is genuinely concern about the placement of the pups. I was able to look at the pups online to see which ones were available, and watch the updates that she posted. We finally were able to agree on a date that the pups would be ready so I could see them and make the drive down. At the time there were only two left to choose from, but once I saw them I knew exactly which one would be ours. Frankie, at the time...was absolutey adorable, weighting in at the time, at 5.5 lbs. He as a little what the call wahl eyed, but Jamie assured me that he would grow out of that. Jamie suggested that I take him to a vet, which she gave me a coupon to go to petsmart for a complete exam for free. I took him the next day...they also assured me that he was in good health and his eyes would strenghten and correct as he got older. My husband and I love our puppy...he is doing great, and growing very rapidly! I have never seen anything grow so quickly before...it is a wonderful sometimes challenging experience. But I would not trade it for the world. We named our puppy Spaceman Spiff...bet you won't hear that name very often...unless of course you are a Calvin & Hobbes fan! Spiff as we like to call him is currently enrolled in puppy training classes and is happy, healthy and very energetic. He weights 35.5 lbs and he is five months old! Thanks Jamie, for our wonderful new addition! |
