Comments from our puppy owners

Hi Barbie & Tim,
 
Just thought you might enjoy an update on Allie.  We love her to death.  She goes everywhere and does everything with us.  You did such an amazing job getting her off to the right start & have made our lives so much easier.  I continue to reinforce everything that you taught her & am having a blast teaching her new things.  She's got the "wave" & rolling over down.  We continue to work on "wait", but I think that I'm most of the problem with that one.  Now we're working on giving presents (taking & dropping a gift bag for someone), resting, going to sleep, peek-a-boo, & playing baseball (she picks up a ball & trots to 4 pieces of paper representing the bases).   Fetching the ball & general cuddling continue to be her favorite pastimes, though.
 
She was really the puppy for us.  You're right about her having a strong opinion at times, but we love her all the more for it.  She continues to have a real personality & makes us laugh constantly.  Even her veterinarian & the staff at the Dr's. office beg us to bring her by occasionally so they can watch her grow & perform. 
 
We took her on her first boating trip a couple of weeks ago to Catalina Island.  She had so much fun!  I've attached a few photos from that weekend.
 
I hope that all is well with you & your very large "family".  Have a great holiday season.  I'll send you an occasional update.
 
All the best,
Sue Vermeeren

                    

 

 

 

Hello Tim...

.Diane and I thought we would provide you with a belated update on the two boys.....in short....they are simply FABULOUS and we could not be happier or more proud!!

 
The trip back to Port Orchard WA on the plane was quite an upsetting ordeal for them I suspect. The cage was covered inside...they must have been so terrified...but I cleaned them up at Seatac and once I got them home...lots of love, a bath. a dinner and hugs all 'round and they slept all night.
    They are both NEARLY house trained...do well with 'sit' and 'come' and we are doing what we can to keep them separated as much as we can. There is no mistake they bond to each other.
    When I had them to the vet for the first visit...they were 9.5 and 10.2 lbs each...they are now 21.8 and 22.3 lbs each....have lots of strong muscles everywhere and Rolls has HUGE feet. The vet says that they could come in at 90-95 and 85 to 90 each when fully developed.
    They have very distinct personalities as you well enough know.
 
    Tim, thanks for raising such wonderful pets....you must surely have a passion for the work you do...it was the right  decision  to choose Golden Meadows for our new family...we will keep you updated on their progress.
 
These two had a big set of shoes to fill when we lost Molson in December...Diane always said he was the "Rolls-Royce" of Goldens........... "Rolls" and "Royce"are doing a great job of delivering us continued happiness...

Thnx again....Jim MacKay

 

Hi Tim & Barbi,

Thanks so much for this awesome puppy! We love him to death and it’s great to have a puppy to cuddle again.  He’s very smart and sweet and seems to have settled right in.   He went to the office with me yesterday and was quite the hit!  Stacey and I are going to try to take pictures of both puppies in the snow today. 

Thanks again!

Michele and Tom

 

Hi Barbie & Tim:
 
I am so glad I found your web site.    We bought Murphy from you Christmas, 2001.  We came to your house when you lived in Simi and Murphy is the puppy of Lucky Strike and Sunshine.   Murphy was born October 28, 2001. 
 
Anyway, Murphy is just the love of our life!  He has a doggy door where he can be in or outside anytime he wants.  He is just a part of our family and is always with us.  He absolutely LOVES our granddaughter, Heather who is 9 and loves to go swimming in our pool.  Murphy is very calm and easy going and only gets real excited when somebody comes over.  He is so sweet and thinks he's a lap dog!  We are so thankful and happy to have him in our family and I just wanted to write and let you know that. 
 
I have a lot of photo's of Murphy, but only one I scanned on my computer to send you.  This picture was taken right after he got out of the swimming pool and his hair is all wet. 
 
Thank you for selling us such a beautiful, healthy dog, but most of all thank you for your dedication to these beautiful dogs.  Good luck to you and say hi to Murphy's Mom and Dad.  I am assuming Sunny is Murphy's Mom, but I did not see Lucky on your web site.  I loved looking at your new place. 
 
Again, good luck and thank you.

Hi Tim,

Chamois is doing GREAT! She’s now retrieving almost any object requested and can open and close doors, and tug Joel’s socks off for him! She does a three minute out-of-sight stay with moderate distraction and knows all her “basic” commands:

(sit, down, stand, come, heel, wait, stay, leave it, “go in,”  kennel up, and her service dog commands: jump on, off, look, tug, get it, hold, give, settle, go through, go in (lie quietly under the table while I eat or work), back, and tricks like shake, wave, high five, paws up, say your prayers, wipe your paws, touch, kiss, and get me a Kleenex. We’ve just begun “ turn on the light.”)

She is a complete joy… a little sassy, and vocal, but sweet and a brilliant learner!

We are shooting for August to place her in Seattle with Joel. That’s pretty early, but she will definitely be ready, command-wise.  We’ll she how mature she is… She has already flown up and visited 4 or 5 times, so it’s a second home to her.

I am considering taking another puppy when Chamois leaves…

Tim & Barbie,


…Our pup rides very well in the car. In public, she's calm and a little princess. O:-) There was another Golden Retriever brown-rust-colored pup with a rough coat the other day (at our nephew's baseball game) and that pup tried to bolt towards her but she was as calm as can be. (Was the other dog an American GR?) she sat by my side the entire time and never wavered. She looked at the other dog but didn't do anything (same thing at the vet's) The other pup was rambunctious, high strung, moved a mile-a-minute, tugged & pulled on his leash constantly, barked a lot and couldn't stay still for 2 seconds. We were quite relieved that she was the exact opposite of this kind of behavior. She's soft and beautiful with that cream & light golden blonde coat. Our girl constantly receives rave reviews whenever we're out in public and from visitors who come to our home. We tell them about GoldenmeadowsRetrievers.


…She did superbly when we went to an outdoor cafe. She was on a large, clean towel next to us while we ate lunch. Again, she receives a lot of attention in public. Many compliments from the public.


She gets along great with all of us and has fit in very well in our home. She's very well-behaved and it's a pleasure and a joy to have a dog like this at home and in public. She's easy to take care of because of her behavior and so gorgeous, too. We like her face, too -square, big eyes, well-proportioned, well-balanced facial features, beautiful coloring, perfect body, everything.

Thank you to you and Barbie for doing a fantastic job raising and training her. I receive a lot of compliments not only on her overall beauty, her soft fur … and the way she's so well-behaved. It's her fine, selective breeding, inherited disposition, inherited good health, care while in the womb, health outside the womb, nursed by her mother and not taken away too soon, training, socialization and you choosing the right puppy for us from the beginning.

She's a real crowd magnet and garners a lot of attention wherever we go. We receive a lot of compliments about everything about her. She does so well at home and she's so cute. A very nice little girl. O:-)
She has cute hair ribbons now, too which she wears on occasion.

Hello Tim and Barbie. Thanks for the hospitality and time yesterday. I am very impressed with the attitudes and environment in which you raise the dogs. The animals certainly get a good healthy beginning!!
 
The puppies are beautiful and Cody is even more impressive than before. I can assure you that whatever pup is selected, it will be going into a safe environment with much love and attention.
 
 Thanks again and have a great weekend. 
 
Best Regards, Tom and Irina Ewing

 
Hi Tim!
Just wanted to let you know that Newman (son of Kami & Jasper) is the greatest dog we could ever ask for. Not only is he absolutely gorgeous, but he has the best temperament, is highly intelligent and extremely loving. Newman is now 8 months old, weighs 65 pounds (how much bigger do you think he'll get?) He loves the water and only wants to be around people. Thanks so much for our boy. We'll send more pictures after his 1year birthday!
Many Thanks,
Tonia & Jeremy

 

Hi, my name is Tracey Johnston.  I had the pleasure of grooming Gringo today.  Not only is Gringo the most beautiful golden I have ever encountered, his temperament exceeds the average.  Steve was gracious to inform me of your website.  I will be sure to recommend your Goldens to any of my customers who are looking for that special canine to complete their family.

Hi Tim...hope you are well and have had a good summer. Just wanted to send a brief update on Shimmy's Boys....Rolls and Royce.
    They are simply THE BEST!! This Thursday, they turn 8 months old and Rolls is 71 lbs and Royce is 69 lbs....and there is no fat on them...Royce is all muscle...and runs as fast as a racehorse.
    Rolls is built for comfort. Both have great coats and color...vanilla and butterscotch. While they are simply inseparable, they have very different personalities. Everything you told me about them has come to be true....Royce comes in from play and settles right away...a real cuddler and loves to lean on the side of the chair or your legs. Rolls on the other hand tends to take some restless time before finding the spot to lay. They have graduated from their crates for sleeping ( they simply can't get in them anymore) and they now have "big boy beds" beside us at night.
    It was a good decision on our part to get another golden...but getting these two from you was a wonderful gift. Thanks again Tim...we have two VERY happy boys in our life.
 
Jim and Diane MacKay

 

Good Morning Tim & Barb,
   If I had a dime for every time I was going to sit down and email you, I'd be wealthy!
I can't believe my baby Luke is going to be 5 months old. Where has the time gone? Anyway, he is an unbelievable dog. He's soooo handsome, intelligent, good-natured, friendly, well-behaved. I could go on forever. Barb, you were right, he is a cuddler. When I'm at school and I think about him during the day I smile because he is such a happy guy.  When I come home from work both he and Sam greet me with a stuffed toy talking themselves silly.  They have grown to be the best of friends, and Sam is a great role model for Luke.  They are great watch dogs, taking care of my house and each other.  I don't know where in the birth order Luke came out, but he is not a bit shy or afraid of anything, he definitely is an "alpha" dog. I can't wait for puppy kindergarten, I'm sure he'll be at the head of the class.  Dr. Cohen and Deb just love him, at his last set of shots he weighed 30.3 lbs. he's"lean and mean"  :)  The front office girls can't get enough of him,  he's such a flirt. I have hundreds of pictures, if I knew how to email them I would, but I don't, so if you get a big piece of bulk mail it will be from me with pictures for you.  I've already started his scrap book, I can't believe how fast he has grown, it must be the "NuVet Plus" and the excellent breeding :)  I could go on forever, but I'm sure you must get tons of great reports about your puppies.
I did use Duke's name for Luke's papers, his offical AKC name is Golden Meadows Duke's Prince Luke, and what a prince he is.
Tim, when you're down this way and you'd like to visit with Luke I would love it. I would love to know what you think and if there is anything I can do, other than not spoiling him more than I already do :)  Well it's Sunday morning and it's time for a Starbucks and a walk around Balboa Island, (it's the best, Luke walks with part of his leash in his mouth) then to the Bakery for some treats.
Thank you both so very much for my wonderful gift and for your awesome dogs that make us much better people.
       Take Care,
           Melinda.....with licks from Luke

 

Wanted to update you on Dru.  I cant begin to tell you how we love this guy!  I already have him in his service vest working with me and  he is just amazing!  He has already gone to a restaurant with me and behaved like SUCH a good boy and stayed right at my feet under the table until we were finished.  People kept commenting on how well behaved he was for such a young dog!  He made us very proud.  Today he went to Rite Aide Pharmacy and to the Bank and he was very good there as well.    He also follows me around the house and lays right at my side against my wheelchair.  He used to lay directly underneath my wheelchair but he has a hard time  fitting there anymore.  He also has lots of dog friends, all of whom he loves to play with.   Everyone always comments on how beautiful he is also.  WE are so very happy that we found you guys and him.  Thank you for such a wonderful, smart, and amazing dog!   
 
Thanks.... 
Amy
