"For anyone considering one of these pups: We are very happy with our pup ('green', now Fern). She is heathy, well socialized and her temperament traits are very much what Nicky stated. I am confident that the interaction and testing done with this litter has given us a very good idea of the kind of adult dog we will end up with. We haven't had such a young puppy for many years and I have also really appreciated Nicky's knowledgable and cheerful support since Fern has been home." - KM Dec 4, 2016
"I agree. Gold, now Taz is a great addition and is getting along great with the kids and smokey our old dog even likes him now lol " SM Dec 4, 2016
"Taz just had his 4 month check up today. He is doing great weighs 33lb. Going to be a big boy I think... He's awesome." SM Jan 26, 2017
"Lovely dogs there so well socialized. Lucy (Red) had no problems with our sheep and poultry. Lol makes having a young puppy on the farm so enjoyable."

"Loves my kids and is so gentle with them. So surprised. I'll try to get some pictures later today." -LS

"Lucy (Red) has started her job of helping in the duck house already. I was moving the ducks into the chicken coop. I would herd them from there yard into their house then catch a few in the house and move them over a few at a time. Unfortunately they kept sneaking out the door while I was inside. Lucy was watching and tried to come in the building. I told her out and she waited at the door and kept the ducks in the building while I caught and moved them. So surprised that she was so eager to help out at such a young age. I can't wait for this spring when she can help move my ducks to different pens and pastures, and to help with the sheep and goats. She even helped me this morning with the chickens. I had the door open while I fed and watered and she kept all the chickens in the coop. Usually I'm running after at least one chicken to get back in the coop. ( I like to leave the door open for some fresh air )
Love this dog. Thank you so much for such a smart puppy." - LS

Peach, now Cooley:
Dec 6, 2016 "The eBook came today and we downloaded it. Thank you for all the information. Our daughter has been reading it and is eager to try out some tips. Cooley is a sweet heart and he will not leave her side! He is even "protecting her". She was sitting by his kennel and my son came into the room making a funny sound. Cooley jumped up into her lap and barked at him! Lol! He's getting along with the other dogs very well, is enjoying the kittens and even the sheep! Right now he is sitting beside Prairie in the living room chewing on a old bone. Very content!! "
Dec 16, "Cooley is doing really well and will not leave Prairie's side! He is doing very good at crate and house training and loves to be outside in the barnyard at chore time! He had his vet visit on Friday and he is growing really well! Everyone has fallen in love with him!" -MB
From owners of our previous (non ES) litters:
I have satisfied puppy owners who bought puppies from me, had them shipped and have offered themselves as references. Contact info is available upon request.
1) "Hi Nicky, I am happy to give any reference you need. Lucy has been the most amazing addition to our family. If we could, we would definitely take another of your adorable pups! Thanks"
Since she is a long term puppy owner, I double checked after her sweet gal crossed the rainbow bridge:
"Oh Nicky of course I will be a reference for you! I wouldn't trade our time with Lucy for anything. She loved us so much and we loved her. I take comfort knowing she was happy every day of her life. Your new pups are gorgeous! Potential clients can contact me for sure." ~~Alex
2) "Absolutely!! Thanks for your help." ~~ Heather"
3) "Of course, Nicky, you may do that. All is going well with our darling Tallulah.
Bi for now" -~~ Laura

5) "Hi Nicky, No problem at all using myself and Peter as references. We are SOOOO happy with Bella and our whole experience with you! Please feel free to pass my email contact on (Bella is actually lying peacefully at my feet right now, after a hard day of work at the stable!)." ~~Selena
