Dear Stephanie and Family,

First of all Happy New Year and hope you all had a wonderful Xmas.

I have been meaning to email you for some time to let you know how Todger is getting on . . . However, Todger was excellent during our long journey back to Luxembourg after we picked him up from you. We did not hear a peek out of him the entire time and although he was a very little bit sick, he was fine. He settled in extremely quickly and after two nights of crying a little for around 15 mins he has since been a little angel. He is also now house trained which seemed to be quite a breeze as well.

I wanted to tell you how thrilled we are with him and what a wonderful intelligent little dog he is. He loves everyone, all children and all dogs and is always wagging his tail like crazy. Everybody who meets him says how wonderful he is and how friendly. I must say that is all down to you not only with the breeding but also with the early socialisation that you gave him with people, children and other dogs so I thank you very much.

The dog training classes are going very well and in fact last Saturday Todger got his puppy school diploma for which he got an Excellent! Our dog trainer said that he is “the best little Parson Jack Russell he has seen in years”
