Subject: Isabelle
Hello Lucy and Fredericka,
We hope everyone is doing great on the farm.
Spring has finally arrived here and we are trying to get out
around town more with Isabelle. Isabelle has been the center of
attention every time we take her out. We are meeting people
everyday who wants to have an American Mastiff of their own. In
fact, Ellen has a friend who is coming over tomorrow to meet
Isabelle. Her friend is thinking of getting an American Mastiff
and just learned that we got Isabelle from you. We took Isabelle
to Zach's baseball game the other day where she was definitely the
center of attention. Not many people around here have heard of
the American Mastiff but to my surprise at the baseball game a guy
came right out and asked if she was an American Mastiff. He had
done lots of research on the breed and was very excited to see a
American in person. Everyone we see says she's a beautiful dog.
We have to agree without question. She is a wonderful addition to
our family. Grace and her play a lot, more than we thought they
would. Lots of intervention happening. Isabelle is eating great
and gets lots of great reviews from the vet. Isabelle is halfway
through her first puppy training. We are taking her to the best
rated dog trainer here in Maine, Wag It! She will perhaps someday
do the test for Isabelle if we do decide to do therapy
training. She plays well with the other dogs who are more than
half her size. Again, we hope everyone is doing well on the farm
and we will continue to send updates.
Keith and Ellen

Subject: Isabelle's vet visit
Hello Fredericka and Lucy,
Isabelle had a great visit to the vets. They are very impressed with
her and said that she is in perfect health with no signs of stress.
She weighs 24.6 pounds and counting. They were also impressed with
her curiosity without intrusiveness. She is very gentle with her
manners and accepts treats graciously. She also was a perfect lady;
calm reserved and didn't mind these new people handling her. (Once
she got over the "new place" factor. She snuggled against me until
she was comfortable) We are truly fortunate to
have her and are enjoying every minute. She wants to make it through
the night with no outside trips and will go from ten till five
without a break. Although she doesn't have much time from getting up
and going out. It takes her a little while to wake up, it's pretty
comical. Watching her and Grace is quite entertaining, Grace stays
quite busy with this puppy, showing her her place. Have a great day
and will talk to you soon.
Warm Regards,
Keith and Ellen |
