"... Bella has been such a blessing!"
"...Losing our sweet little Mia was after several hardships our family had faced in the last few months. The timing in finding Bella was perfect!...."
"....We are so glad we found your website... .... Your videos are what sold us on Bella. I told the girls I have to see the puppy's personality so we would have to see the puppy in person. Then when we saw your website I could see her personality through you video. We were smitten.
Please tell Opal and Donna hi!

"We love our puppy!!! Dixie, now Bella, has stolen our hearts. We call her Bella Nina, "little beauty". She is a sweet, loving, fun puppy. My girls have done nothing but hold her, play with her and watch her sleep. We have continually video taped her and taken at least 100 photos of her! ..."
"She slept so well last night. She went to sleep at 10:30 and woke up at 5:30. She has adjusted so well. That is testimony to the loving home she came from. She was obviously well loved! She knows what she is suppose to do when she goes outside. It feels like she has been a part of our family always. Thank you so much for this perfect little puppy! She has brought healing to our hearts.
God Bless!

We got a call from a family whose beloved Shih Tzu had just passed away and was hoping to get the puppy in their arms as quickly s possible. The family was truly mourning. They found Dixie on the Internet and felt very drawn to her. They made their deposit, we spoke on the phone and we just really liked them. we knew this was the kind of people we wanted Dixie to have as her forever family. So everyone here flew into action trying to get Dixie to them as quickly as possible.
We had out doubts about making it happen quickly. After all it was Saturday on a holiday weekend. Donna was at work, so Jack took Dixie to the vet for her final checkup and health certificate. (He had only one hour to get changed, get the puppy and get to the vet). While Jack worked on that Opal started searching for the best flight she could find. Opal found an awesome flight, puppy got her health certificate, Donna got off work and gave Dixie her bath. Then off to Springfield Jack and Donna fled with Dixie. Opal began preparing Dixies flight crate and flight paperwork.Opal and Dixie went to bed early (Dixie slept in bed with Opal).
I spoke on the phone with Dixie's new mommy late that evening to let her know all arrangements were finished and that Dixie was spnding the night at opal's and to re-confirm flight times. They had just returned home from puppy shopping and were anxious to greet their new little girl the next morning.
Opal got Dixie up in the wee wee hours, as they had to be at the airport early and Dixie needed time to play, eat and potty before getting in the flight crate.
At about mid morning on Sunday we got a a very precious call from Dixie's new family. They had fallen head over heels in love with Dixie the moment she came out of the crate. They said that as soon as she saw them from inside her crate her tail started wagging, I think she must have known they were there for her!! Dixie came out of her flight crate and greeted them with a wagging tail.
They called us right away and from the love we could hear in their voice we knew that Dixie "was home' and would always be dearly loved.
We will post new updates here when we get them.
