Look at Trevor - isn't he a beauty!
  He lives with the Huffman family in Virginia.   I'm sure the snow was quite a shock after living in Texas !

This is one of Josie and Lance's baby boys -  also named Trevor.  He lives with Jen Brown and family in Rhode Island.  Jen says he loves the snow !

This is Sassy - she is a Josie and Lance pup (all grown up) - she lives with Kathleen Rager in Jackson, Alabama.

These are Sable & Hot Rod's girls - Gracie and Violet, and they live with the Vogeler family in Plano, TX, who wrote to me:

I thought you would like to see how beautiful your "babies" turned out.   They are such a joy to us and each other. Violet is our sweet lap dog, but don't be fooled - she can take care of herself.  Gracie is very loving, but prefers to lay either with her sister, or by herself.  She loves to play fetch and be pulled around on the floor on her back as she grabs onto her toy snake.  We love our girls so much!   

This is Bindi Sue - she lives with the Petersons on their ranch in Blanket, TX.  Here's what they had to say their first day with her:
She is just PERFECT!  Took her to Dr. Young this morning, and he fell in love with her, too, along with his entire staff.  Bindi seems to love people, so very happy about that, a good trait to have!  I love everything about her personality - she's lovable and SMART. I really expected to be up more with her, but she is just being so good in her crate.  We just love her!

I just wanted to tell you how happy our family is with our mini schnauzer puppy, who we named Shylee. She is such a happy dog, and she is already spoiled. She is a very fast learner, and we all enjoy playing with her. She has already learned how to sit and stay. She quickly learned how to swim and climb the stairs, but we're still working on coming down. She can catch the ball and bring it back to us, too. She has two friends in our neighborhood; one is Wish, the 7-year-old mini schnauzer, and Peaches, the 15-year-old cat. She especially likes to play with Peaches' tail. I can go brag about our little puppy on and on and on, but most of all, I just wanted to thank you for breeding good puppies.

This is Scout, and he lives with the Schrutka family in The Woodlands, TX.  This is what they had to say:
His full name is Lone Star Scout Man About Town.  We came up with the name because I would call him Scout Man and my husband would call him Scout About.  He is a great puppy - lots and lots of fun.  I took him to the pet store yesterday and he was a hit.  Everyone stopped me to tell me how cute he was - one lady told me he was the prettiest Schnauzer she had ever seen!

Look at Jolie and her beautiful Schnauzer family - they live with Wally and Jenny Richardson of El Dorado Hills, California.

Introducing "Lone Star Miss Lucy Tater Tot".  We just thought we would send some pictures of "Lucy".  She has settled in rather comfortably here since we brought her home.  She is FULL of personality and has learned to bark and growl fairly quickly.  She had pretty much potty trained herself and was fetching a ball within a few days!!  She has her first visit to the vet and passed with flying colors.  Thanks so much for this wonderful addition to our family, she is truly a bundle of joy.  We will keep you posted on her progress…..!!

Just wanted to send you a picture of Buddy at six months.  He is too cute and quite the personality. He loves to use his paws.  Many times he will reach out a touch you with is paw to get you attention or the say "don't stop" when you quit petting him.  He will also lay down and hide his face under his paw and peek out at you when he is playing.We love him so much we may even get him a friend one day, so keep us posted on any future litters that may have a special one like Buddy.

The pictures to the left and right are Aspen (Peaches & Austin's pup).  She lives with the Cassell family in McAllen, TX.  In an e-mail to me, they wrote:  Aspen has adjusted well.  She is not scared of anything.  She chases everyone (all 3 dogs and the cat).  The Lab and Rottie just look at her like "Oh No, another Bossy Mini".  She is chomping on everyone and everyone seems to know she is a baby and puts up with her.

This is Aspen all grown up.  Here is an update from the Cassell family:
Aspen has adjusted well and still plays with the cat.  She loves treats, and tends to get "porky".  When she goes outside she tries to chase and eat the bugs.   She has a great personality.  She is sweet at times, and then turns into the rowdy dog.  Everyone thinks she is beautiful.

Take a look at the SNOW clumped all over the legs of these dogs - BRRR - makes me cold just looking at it!

From Kathryn George in McCall Idaho:  Hi Melissa,  We bought Pearly Girl (Charlee & Austin, silver pup) from you somewhat over a year ago. She was one year old in February of this year. Just wanted to tell you that she has been the sweetest, most loving dog we have ever had. She has a wonderful temperament and loves everyone who comes in the door. She doesn't bark in the house, leaving that to our older female Tina (salt/pepper). On our walks she does bark at other dogs, but that's no problem as she's always on the leash. We had a chip put in her shoulder, but I don't anticipate her being able to escape from our 1/4 acre yard. We are so pleased with her and we love her so much. The first picture shows Pearl boxing with our Siamese cat, who seems to enjoy the wrestling, too.  The second picture shows Tina and Pearl last winter--we had so much snow that it stuck to their paws and fur and had to be rinsed off several times a day. Pearl, by the way, loves the snow.  Thanks again for our lovely Pearly girl.

Introducing Pearl, Peaches and Austin's baby - what a little doll she is!.  Her mom, Kathleen says "As you can see, she is beautifully marked and only 8 lbs and a total mama's girl.  I am thrilled with the way she has turned out.  She is exactly what I was looking for.  Thank you so much for sharing Lone Star Pearl of Texas with us"

To the left is Gunther (Mini) and Dax (Giant).  They live with Lori & Dan Westphall in North Carolina.  They wrote to me "Dax has never played with another dog before...every one else has been too intimidated by him even though he is sweet...but Gunther has won his heart and they are a riot to watch play.  We are so happy with our puppy...he is loving his life and we are loving him!  He had a blast in the snow and is still the star of the bus stop every day.  He has been on quite a few road trips already and is the perfect traveler and the perfect guest once he arrives ..  Even with his high energy, he doesn't tear anything up and the only thing he chews is our fingers, but he doesn't press down very hard - we couldn't be happier!

To the left is Daisy - she is Tex and Gracie's baby and lives with to Jennifer Seat of The Woodlands, TX

To the right is my wonderful, love of my life, grandson, Micah, with Tex and Charlee when they were babies.

This is Bella Rose, who lives with Tina Terry and Family.   In an e-mail, she wrote to me:  "Bella Turned 6 mos old yesteday.   She is so adorable, and we are so enjoying having her in our home.  Bella thinks she is a big dog.  She romps and plays with Tiger, our Lab/Terrier mix with abandon.  She loves to snorkel in Tiger's big water bowl.  She is such a clown.   Bella is in her third week of puppy manners class.  I must say she is the smartest and fastest learning student.  She is totally bonded to my Dad.  They have breakfast together then go in the backyard to survey the garden and play.  I call her my elder care therapy puppy.  Thank you again for breeding such an amazing little soul.

To the left are Azul and Tex at home with the Kothny's of
Kingwood, Texas

To the right is Abby.  Her human mom wrote to me "This is our little Abby at 4 mos. old. She is a real beauty.  She was so easy to housebreak and loves to go on her walks everyday.  She's a real sweetheart.  She loves to snuggle with you, but there are times she wants to stretch out and be alone.   Thought you would enjoy seeing how she looks today.  Thanks for such a wonderful little girl!!!

This is Max, as a new puppy and a few months later.  He is Peaches and Austin's baby, and he now lives with the Lakey's in Houston.  In an e-mail, they wrote to me "Just wanted you to know how smart Peach's little man, Maxx is.  He adopted very well to his new home and is loved so much by his new parents.  He is the hit of our Townhouse complex!   Thank you for breeding such wonderful companions.

This is Kaiser - he is Truly and Lance's pup and lives with the Tierce's in Houston.  Here's what they had to say about him:  We can't believe our boy is getting so big.  He loves playing ball and getting into just about anything.  And, he's still a piglet...always living for mealtime or a treat.  He's super smart too!

Meet Clara Belle - she resides with the Quinlan family in Houston, and they wrote me "Clara Belle is about 6 or 7 months old, and we thought you might like a picture to see how cute she has gotten.   She is one of Sky and Lance's pups, and we love her and everyday she surprises us more and more."

Look at this cutie!  Her name is Briar and she lives with the Romain family in Phoenix, Arizona.  Here is what they have to say.  "I read what the other owners said and the common theme that I certainly see in my little one is how smart and sweet your dogs are.  Briar is such a sweetheart and as smart as can be.  The only thing I disagree with is that Briar absolutely hates show.  She only saw about an inch of it once on a visit to Pennsylvania, but she is definitely a 'desert' girl.  She doesn't even mind the heat until it gets over 110.  I'm just so happy and lucky to have her."

The End
