W & J Kennels

We love him!!  [DeeOGE] he's doing great, just a few accidents on the carpet the first night but doing great now!  he didn't wimper or get scared at all going to sleep sunday night.  we have a bed made up for him right next to ours so he is very comfortable. he is a total cuddler and permanently attached to my side during the day which is adorable!  definately a momma's boy.

Hi Whitney!  Leila is doing sooo well!  She is very well behaved and very loving.  She goes to sleep very well at night and lets me know when she needs to go outside!  I couldn't ask for anything better :)

1 1/2 yr old update

Hey Whitney!  Leila is still doing great!  She is very well behaved and loving, and gets attention where ever she goes.  I couldn't be more happier with her.

Hi Whitney,
I noticed that Colby was doing well with sit and assumed you must have started him on it. He now sits on command, shakes a paw, knows how to stay and come he is very very very intelligent and affectionate. My family and I love him to pieces!!  Lisa

Hi Whitney!
I just thought I would send you a little email to let you know how Colby is doing. He is sooo smart he can sit, shake paw, other paw, stay, lay down, jump, turn, stay, roll over, speak, sit pretty so at 17 weeks he is doing amazing!! We go for a 1.5 km run every day and he loooooves swimming!! It was great that he was crate trained but when he grew out of his kennel (he is now 18.5lbs) he decided that he wanted to sleep in my bed and that hasn't changed yet haha. I attached some pictures for you some really recent ones so you can see how big he is!! Hope everything is well!
Talk to you soon,

Lisa

Hi Whitney!  Thanks for the e-mail. He is an amazing puppy-  very fast learner and a great companion. Lots of people have said that he is the cutest puppy they have ever seen, and everyone is impressed with how smart and well behaved he is. P.S.  I named him Reagan! ~~Reagan is doing terrific.  He is happy and healthy as can be.  He weighs 33 pounds as of last week. His fur has gone from black to grey to tan, and now it is mostly black with a soft gold on top of his head.  His left ear always stands up, and the right one sits down.  He was super quick to learn commands and tricks, and very easy to potty train!

We took Gobi out for a walk today and to the dog park - where he got very muddy but had a great time playing with the other dogs.  I thought I'd take some photos of him while we were out.  He has grown SO much!  He weighed about 40+ pounds the first week of December when we took him in to get neutered.  The texture and length of most of his fur is very much like a Golden Retriever's, although his coloring is all Husky - black, white and gray.  His tail is full and bushy.  The "Gobe-ster" is SUCH a sweetheart.  We can't imagine our family complete without him!  He has not only won the hearts of our family but of everyone who meets him.  He loves to play, but he also loves to snuggle up with us when he's in the mood.  He spends a lot of his napping time lying on his back - twisted - against a door or wall.  It's the funniest thing to see.

(Goberian) He arrived last night, and we were able to pick him up around 8:00 SD time.  He did great on the flight from what I could tell.  He was pretty talkative on the ride home and wanted to get out of that kennel pretty badly, but needed a bath before he was ready to be cut loose.  He did great with the bath and it took him all of about 10 minutes to feel comfortable in the house.  He was romping around pretty good for the rest of the evening having a good time playing w/ us and finally started to wear down around 1:00 am.  Slept through the night with no problems, and didn't even cry in his kennel.

I think he'll get to see the beach today for the first time, so we'll see how he likes that.

 

 

 

I just wanted to give you an update on my puppy (Leon).

 

He is such a great dog.  Everyone I pass stops me to ask what kind of dog he is...literally everyone.  He's very smart and it took no time at all to get him house trained.  Now he's working on a full arsenal of tricks.  He's growing pretty quickly; right now he's about 35lbs, but he's really hit a growth spurt in the last month.   I can't tell quite how big he's going to be all said and done though.  He's kept his coloring for the most part, but you'll see from some of the photos that he does have a lot of golden in him.  Additionally, his eyes ended up turning and staying green.  They were blue, and I thought they would turn amber, but they've stayed in between at green.

 

He's such a great puppy!

 

Thanks again, (MAY 20th, 2009)

(German Shepherd) "You all have some great dogs out there! Sasha is doing great and is really fitting in well!"

"Hi Whitney,

I thought you might like to see some pictures of Sammy(Goberian). We had thought to name him Chip but we changed it to Sammy. He is so smart and loveable. He is already a part of the family. Thanks so much!"

" Hi Whitney.
 
I have actually been thinking about sending out a little email to you since I know you are very close to the pups.  Kaiser (German Shepherd) is doing great.  He was very shaken up the first day.  Too many changes for the poor guy.  He has warmed up a lot.  He seems to feel at home now.  He really enjoys wrestling and chasing me. He is very attentive and seems to pick up on the few things I've thrown at him.  We are still working on getting him to let me know when he was to go outside for potty breaks.  I am trying to teach him to ring a bell I have on the door handle.  My aunt and uncle have a dog that does this and it seemed like a neat idea.  He really likes the big backyard that I have, but we have to play out there together since I do not have it fenced in. 
 
It was great working with you to get this done.  You did a very professional job and were very good about answering my questions.  I was actually gonna get a pup from someone in this area, but after having a couple phone calls in a row that did not adequately fulfill my needs and questions I ruled this breeder out.  I then started searching elsewhere and talked to a lot of people.  It was nice to have someone easy to work with."

McKenna (Siberian Husky) "The vet said she was as healthy as could be. She weighed 10lbs today! She was the hit of the vet's office. All of the vet tech's came in and looked at her because she was so cute. She is soooo spunky! She runs circles around us when we play with her outside. We had our first "walk" today. It was much more like a fish out of water and me trying to reel her in, but we made it almost a whole block before we gave up for the day. We'll try again tomorrow. She is pretty much potty trained already. She's had maybe 2 accidents since she's been here."

Amanda - April 23, 2009

"Hi,  

    We have decided to name her Sammie (Siberian Husky) and she has really warmed up to us and has bonded to me and doesn't let me out her sight.  She acted like she had known the other dogs forever and they got along like they had always been friends.  I take her to the cemetery for long walks and she runs and plays but always keeping track of me.  She really rides great in the car, sleeps all night, but of coarse in the kennel in our bedroom.  We think she is really nice and we like her a lot. Sincerely, 

"

"Hey there, (Siberian Husky)- Meiko
Hes doing great!  He was pretty quiet the first night.  I think he was pooped from everything going on.  Yesterday he got his energy back and went wild!  He has a great temperament.  He's also very curious.  Still working on potty training.  When we go on walks, just about everyone stops and tells me how adorable he is and how well he behaves.   Thanks again!

"Rudy (Goberian) is doing great.  I love having him around!  He has made me so happy. :)

He enjoys meetings other doggies and people at the park - he had such
a fun time when he saw a Husky the other day.  It probably reminded
him of his dad! (By the way, I love that his dad's full name is Luke
Skywalker - Rudy's middlename is Skywalker now.)

He loves going for car rides.  He'll just sit in the front seat the
entire time.  It is too cute!  We go for walks in the park, and he
really seems to enjoy being outside.

I've been having such a great time with him. He is teething a bit, and he seems to be on a
growth spurt - he's been eating much more lately!  He also seems to be
getting a bit darker, too."

Hi Whitney and family-

I just wanted to write you and let you know how Kane (German Shepherd) is doing. He is adjusting well. He arrived home around 11 this morning and met the other dogs and kids and did very well with everyone.  I just let Kane walk around and discover his new home and I sat down to read my new book on German Shepherds ; ) Kane came over and laid down next to my chair and took a little nap. He was so tired, Ibrahim said he maybe slept for 3 hours the whole time he was with him. 

After Kane woke up we went out for a few walks and hung out in the house. I was cleaning / picking up the house and he just followed me everywhere. I almost fell over him 5 times, he would not leave my side. Before dinner the whole family went for a walk and he did very good. His crate is in our master bedroom. He has been in his crate for about an hour and a half and is sleeping. I just took him out for a walk and put him back and he is now snoring a little bit. He seems to be doing real well if you ask me.  We want you to know that we will take very good care of him and I know he will be a very happy dog for a very long time. 

Thanks so much for making the past 24 hours very exciting ; ) He is a beautiful dog. We already love him!

Thanks again!"

Ashley- May 29th 2009

"The puppy is wonderful.  She has already become attached to our family. My two daughters are in love with her. She is my husband's "girl."  We live on a farm and she frolics in the puddles with the other dogs--two baths so far. We have named her Ivory (Goberian) to match our black Lab, Ebony. 

 

Thanks,"

Traci- June 9th 2009

"Hey Whitney!
 
Everything is going great with Kaiser.  He is such a quick learner.  I receive compliments on how well trained and behaved he is....I just say that it has been easy.  He catches on to things very quickly.  I'm sure his intelligence will try my patience at some point..:).  He really enjoys going to my parents farm(which I do frequently).  He also runs with me.  We are working on getting his endurance up.  It is coming along, though.  He is growing very fast.  I last weighed him two weeks ago and he was 48lbs.  So I am sure he is over 50lbs now.

Reagan (Goberian) is terrific.  He is about 45 lbs., and fluffy as can be.  He has had a companion since late summer, when my girlfriend and I brought home a new Yorkshire Terrier mix.  They get along so well, and Reagan seems to be more content with another dog around.  He spends many hours at our local dog park where he loves to chase a tennis ball and socialize with other dogs.  He is well known by the other dog owners for his lovable demeanor and striking looks.  I can't even count how many times that strangers have asked me what breed he is, and where they can find another just like him!

Reagan is still extremely energetic when its playtime, but he has grown in to a very calm and patient dog.  He can be trusted left alone and seldom gets in to mischief, which makes him such a stress free dog.  One tool that I have discovered that makes walking Reagan much easier is a head collar- he is so strong that and excited on walks that he tends to tow me around.  Although it took some getting used to, he now walks calmly at my pace.
