Dear Monette,

This is just a quick note to discuss the complete satisfaction we have with Spencer.  

You should be complimented for the socialization that your puppies experience prior to purchase.  Spencer essentially was housebroken, and has been extremely good with both my young boys.  We brought him into a home with an older cat, and there was no aggression ever shown toward the cat.

Spencer is the only German Shepherd I have owned who has not gone through a gangly, unattractive stage.  He has always been proportionally and handsome.  We have received many compliments on his appearance.  He is now seven months, and although a long way from being fully developed, his coordination and physical appearance are both outstanding.

He is extremely intelligent and very much a "people dog."  He enjoys traveling with us, and doesn't seem to mind waiting in the car while we're at dinner or shopping, and we think he would rather come with us and wait than remain at home alone.  his acceptance of variety in his environment is excellent.  He has stayed in several motels and traveled extensively, without any difficulty in unusual circumstances that sometimes occur when traveling

Spencer is loving and affectionate, has learned a few commands, and is eager to please.  He has an extremely high drive; however, he is very calm around  loud noises, people, and children.  He is very friendly and outgoing, but still has the German Shepherd savvy to notify us of a questionable situation.  The intelligence he has demonstrated at this young age is very surprising to me.

I would be pleased to discuss in depth my opinion of your kennel, the accuracy of the personality evaluations you perform on your puppies, and most importantly, the quality of the puppies themselves, with anyone who would care to call and speak with me.
