Testimonials

The following is a list of emails that I have received from various customers explaining their experiences with Angela's Dogs.  We hope that that you find these testimonials informative and beneficial to your puppy buying experience.

 

Hi Angela,

Yes, we love her, she is very smart, very, very sweet in demeanor and is extremely good with my daughter. She adores my daughter and Aspen is her dog, Aspen gets so happy...she is one bundle of excitement, when my daughter comes home from pre school.
She has been practicing her bark skills now, three times in two weeks.. lol lol My husband finally heard it last night when taking them out for the nightly. She started barking, but it was more like a howl, and it sounded more wild than dog, my husband loved it, just thought it was so cute how she was now practicing her barking.. she is not a barker (obviously) but apparently will let us know when something is in our yard, and that is what we wanted. She is very agile, we are going to do lure coursing with her because she is so fast and her agility is uncanny. As I mentioned in the past we plan on doing some therapy work for people who are sick to bring a smile. Her demeanor is so sweet, I have not seen any aggression at all with people. Now, Bearsly upsets her sometimes, but he pushes, pushes, pushes and annoys her like boys do.. lol lol lol
He is so funny with her, won't leave her alone, always wants to play with her, and steal her bones, upon the hundredth time he takes her bone, she gets mad. I was reading about breeding, and watch a science program, and you obviously bred two very wonderful tempered dogs, and congratulations that you chose do to that. We have had Irish Wolfhounds in the past, and I feel as confident with Aspen with my daughter, as I did with the Irish Wolfhounds. You see Irish Wolfhounds are one of the oldest breeds on records and they have no child issues at all, have not hurt a child on record. They are only fierce when provoked, we lived in Colorado, and a lot of dog owners lost there dogs to Coyotes and the Mountain Lions, so I wanted a breed that was wonderful with children, a Large Breed, but not an aggressive breed.
I have had dogs almost all my life and Aspen is the best dog I have ever had, she is not destructive, she only does things when Bearsly shows her... She is not a barker, just a companion dog, that has a guard personality and a wanting to please demeanor. She certainly wants to please us, so I am sure you have gotten that we are very happy. Tonight she is done with the boosters, and she is in puppy school tonight, she had her first class last week, she has only one other puppy in the class. It is a wheaten puppy, and the intelligence level is not even in comparison, you can see Aspen is way smarter, this dog had a lot of aggression as this breed can be known to have. Aspen is much bigger and just let's the dog be aggressive and then comes by the legs. By the end of the class, the puppy realized who was Alpha and the wheaten became super submission, by no aggressive actions by Apsen.

Aspen is potty trained, that did take some work, but only because of the size of my home, it is has a lot of room for her to play. She was crate trained in one day, she knows sit, stay, come, treat, and a couple more and she is only three months old. She was 33 pounds two weeks ago at her check up. She was professionally groomed Saturday and did very well with the groomer. If people ask you about getting two, I recommend getting two puppies of this breed, because they keep each other company. I am home all the time, but when I do errands or see friends, they are not so upset. The love to sit on my deck which sits very high and watch the people off the trail, it seems to be a game of who spots who on the trail. They also play so well with one another, in many ways it is easier having two of this breed.
I will keep sending photos so you can show other people how the mature, and it is exciting to see her new colors come in, she has a salt and pepper face, extremely adorable.

Aspen does not shed at all, she seems to be hypo allergenic. My daughter does have an allergic reaction to dogs, that is why we had to adopt out our wolfhound, we did not have any dogs for two years and Aspen and Bearsly are our first since knowing about her allergy. She has had no issues with these puppies and she was rated 2.5 out of 5 for reaction to dogs. Bearsly has slight shedding in the bath, but Aspen has absolutely none, so I thought you should know this.

Kindest Regards,
Susan

Hey just an update on the puppy that we bought from you in September!! We are the ones from Saint Charles, MO and we got #3Girl!  She is a joy!!  She is 6 months old (almost 7) and is about 55 pounds...She is still slightly underweight but we are working on that!! She was only 12 pounds when we got her home and she is too busy to eat with the other dogs so we have to feed her in the bathroom in the morning while we get ready for work!!
 
    She loves to take showers and loves the other dogs in our family!!  She is great with kids and likes to sneak in at night and try to get by with sleeping in our bed! (Not enough room with her long body and legs in our Queen sized bed!!!)
 
    She is taller than our lab now at the shoulders and just plain looks like a bear when she is walking in the yard!!  She is so well behaved--does not need to be tied up when we let her out in the yard--she stays right in our yard and never leaves.  She is happy to sit at our feet, Or in our laps when we are lazing around! 
   
    My husband is talking about another one next fall?!?!?  Not sure where we would put another one but I guess we can always make room for another Schnoodle!!  We have had people ask about her on a regular basis --I love taking her to the pet store!! She gets all kinds of looks and lovin'!! 
 
    Are you planning on having any litters in the next year or so!?   If so, let us know ---Thanks , Shelly Jones

I'll send better pictures but just a reassurance that Etta is doing well and is getting along well with our schnauzer, Winston. We love her. My kids are coming home from boarding school Friday-what a surprise!

 

We've made the paper.  Click below to view an article about Reggie, a puppy we sold to a happy customer!

Here's our girl- only a much smaller version.  She's an awesome dog with a wonderful personality. This is from several weeks ago.  Right now she weighs about 30 pounds and is getting bigger every day. She's been very easy to train and is almost fully housebroken.  When we keep her on the hardwood floors, we never have an issue.  If she gains access to the upstairs and hits the carpeting, we have a few accidents.  Our only other issue has been chewing which she likes to limit to people! Our vet assures us that we only have a few more weeks to go and all of her adult teeth will be in and that won't be an issue.

We are amazed that we have a dog with gorgeous fluffy hair that doesn't shed a bit!  We now think people are crazy for considering any other kind of dog.  A black poodle the same age as Kelsey just
moved in down the street.  We're eager to have them play together because Kelsey definitely misses her brothers and sister. Unfortunately the poodle has some highly contagious illness right now
so we're keeping them apart.  Kelsey is current on all of her shots but we don't want to take any chances.

Needless to say, we are thrilled with her and so happy that she's a part of our family.  Every time people ask us about her, we tell them about you.  You all are the best.  Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year.

She’s awesome! The drive was brutal and we didn’t make it home until 12:30. She was an amazing traveler which made it much more fun.  Finally came up with a name around 8 hours into the drive.  It’s Kelsey to go with the Irish names of our daughters, Kendall and Devlin.

Everyone who meets her raves about how sweet she is.  She’s great with the girls.  For the first two days we were worried that she couldn’t walk because her feet never touched the ground as she was being carried so much.  She’s also doing really well sleeping.  The first night she cried three separate times and each time we took her out and she went to the bathroom.  Next two nights she only cried once and needed to go out.  Last night she slept from 10-6, so that’s going really well.

Right now she’s a chewing fiend so we’re trying to keep her focused on chew toys instead of furniture and feet.  Today she’s going to the vet at 2:00 so we can find out what schedule she needs to be on for her shots.

She loves being outside which is great since the weather has been really nice.  We all hang out together and run her around until she’s worn out.  Her favorite thing is chasing falling leaves so we’re well protected on that front.

All in all, we couldn’t be happier.  She’s a great dog who clearly comes from great parents and a great family.  Thank you so much!  When I get a chance, I’ll load some photos of her.

Hi Angela!
  

I just wanted to give you a little update on “Finnegan” – he is the most wonderful dog I could imagine!!  He is so loyal, well behaved, and just so much fun.  He goes to doggy day care while I am at work so he is very spoiled and happy.  He potty trained in no time, and we go to puppy training classes every week where he is the star.  The other puppy owners joke with me that he is actually 7 years old and I’m bringing him to puppy training to make the other dogs look bad.  I can’t believe how smart he is and how quickly he picks up on things.  Also, I live by myself in the city, and he is a great watch dog.  Anytime we are out walking at night and someone approaches me that I don’t see coming, he definitely makes their presence known, so I feel very safe with him.  People stop my on the street daily to ask where I got him and comment on how cute he is.  I could go on and on forever, but I just wanted to tell you that everything is going great, and to thank you again for everything!  If you ever need a glowing reference, feel free to give out my number/email address. 

Thank you again!

Hi Angela,

I thought you might like a one year report on Reggie. He tops the scales at 100 pounds! Can't figure out how he managed to get so BIG! But he is indeed a "gentle giant". People just flock to him wherever we go. They want to pet him (he loves it!) and they want to know what breed he is. 

We are still working toward certification for Animal Assistanted Therapy. I think we will certify within the next 6-8 months. On good days he could probably pass the test now; but his behavior isn't yet as consistent as it must be to work as a therapy dog .  He is still a puppy!!

And with his size, we must have complete control.

I am attaching some pictures.

Best,

Judy

 

Hi Angela,

Apple is doing great.  She is a very devoted, loving dog.  She follows us everywhere.  She likes to go in her crate at times.  I’ll say “I have to go to work now” and she goes in right away.  We never leave her more than a few hours at a time, and not every day.  We have her groomed about every 3 weeks now, not always a trim, usually a bath and some clipping.  She is a very good watch dog, very protective of us, but not aggressive.  She loves our 4 year old grandson, sometimes gets a little too rough with him, we have to watch closely.  We took her to puppy obedience class, she did very well.  She knows sit, down, give, leave it, her name.  We’ll probably take her to another obedience class as a refresher.  The only negative is our beautiful green lawn is burned in spots by her urine.  I can’t seem to correct that.  I bought some pills which I give her every day.  They’re supposed to balance the acidity in her urine, but it doesn’t seem to make a difference yet.  Any suggestions?  She also likes to dig, and has dug up some of our drip irrigation system.  Here in California we have to water a lot.  I’d be happy to talk or email to anyone interested in your pups.  We’re very happy with her.  She is amazingly beautiful.  We never go anywhere without her and people always stop us and comment on how beautiful and sweet she is.  She is so big, about 90+ pounds.  She always likes to walk between our legs when we come home.  Now she is almost too tall to do that without our lifting one of our legs so she can pass through! 

I’ll be gone 7/8-7/16 to Hawaii , but I’d love to talk or email anyone before I leave or when I get home.

Hi Angela,

Hawaii was awesome.  Apple is doing great.  She is so smart and affectionate, and very protective of the family.  She loves our little grandson, and he loves her so much.  It’s so cute to see them together.  I’m happy to talk to any potential Giant Schnoodle owners.  When she stands on her back legs she can look me in the eye, I’m 5’5”.  She used to like to walk between our legs, and now she’s too tall.  I think she weighs 90=95#.  She creates a sensation wherever we take her.  People love her.  I always tell them where we got her!

Hi Angela:  I'm Colleen, the one that flew from Idaho to Cincinnati and my sister and I met you at the gas station to pick up our schnoodle.  His name is Kaiser (means German Emperor).  My husband and kids names him because he is sooooo big.  He's already 21 pounds.  (born March 3).  I think he's going to be more than 50 pounds!  What a sweetie though.  He made a 5 hour plane ride back to Boise without a peep!  No drugs, and I put him in the cabin with me.  A man sitting next to me on the airplane fell in love with him.  I kept unzipping   the bag he was in and he'd stick his head out and look around.  The man (who was a big executive at some company in a fancy suit) kept talking to Kaiser like he was a human baby.  It was great.  The man forgot there was a plane full of people and he was talking "baby talk" to him the entire plane ride.  People were looking at him like he was crazy!  That's what a puppy will do to you!!

Took him to the vet, and he's great.  Kaiser eats like a pig...we have to really control it.  Our four year old schnauzer Palmer loves him more than life!  They play and wrestle all day long and are exhausted at the end of the day.  Almost house trained.  We're having to use the crate.  He's spoiled rotten to the core.  So, so, so sweet.  We can't believe what a great disposition he has.  He gets  baths a lot.  He and palmer have a rope toy.  His favorite thing to do is play tug of war and chew his chewy toy.  He's our little bear.   We'll send pictures soon.  It's hard to get a good picture of a black dog.  He has a periwinkle blue handkerchief around his neck which is cute.  It helps us find him!!

More later.  Colleen and Family
