"Rayneriver's Jett Black Ice" (Jett)
| May 16, 2002 Hi Lesley, Jett
is doing wonderfully! He is such a good puppy and so well mannered. He definately
knows his name now, loves to snooze in his crate when he's really tired during
the day, and when he goes into his crate at night there's not one peep out of
him until early morning. Bailey and Jett both love the companionship they share.
We play alot of ball outside, and go for walks. I really do believe there is that
difference of a happy content puppy when they come from such a great family background!
Thankyou for giving Jett that beginning to become the best he can be. We have
just got a digital camera, so we are having alot of fun taking shots of the dogs
together and seperately- we will have to send you some! Jett is growing so much,
and starting to lose the fluffy part of his coat, and becoming more sleak, though
his head is still fluffy. We
feel very fortunate to have found you, as breeders, to have a healthy happy labrador! Talk
to you soon, |

"Rayneriver's Nathanael Malachi" (Nate)
| May
15, 2002 "Lesley
was compassionate, understanding and very considerate of our recent loss of "Sneakers'",
our beloved yellow Labrador of 12 years. She made us feel that she knew we would
be good owners: loving, caring and very responsible owners of such a great dog
that would be given nothing but the best possible care---medically and emotionally---with
lots of love." "
..She
has provided valuable advice and a non-reproach judgment of obtaining a dog." "
..Lesley
returned all phone calls promptly and is always interested with concern to our
many questions." "
..The
mother of Nate has such a gentle disposition and excellent temperament---a "very
well" looked after Labrador." "
..Clearly
Lesley & Kevin's initial handling of our puppy from birth has had a big imprint
on Nate. It is very apparent that Lesley showed lots of affection and time, for
Nate shows an increased awareness and easy interaction with all people." "
..Nate
is a very confident dog. He appears to be strutting; full of life and confidence
with tail and ears erect. It is quite an expression of his personality. This has
made for an easy transition from his mother and littermates to our home. Nate
is extremely affectionate and relates well to people who visit us
..Everyone
who meets Nate is just delighted by him and how well-adjusted he is." "
..He
makes us smile and laugh. We adore Nate and he is very much loved. We enjoy spoiling
him a bit because he is so sweet and special. He fills our hearts with joy and
great comfort. We are so attached to him. Nate loves kisses on his head and we
love his kisses." "Most
important: Thank you to Lesley for being so compassionate and understanding. Thank
you for allowing us to have Nate. We promise he has a good, loving and caring
home. "Guardian Angel", that is our Nate." Joan
& Kim |

"Rayneriver's Clint Eastwood" (Rowdy)
| Feb.
9/03 Dear
Lesley & Kevin, Simply
don't have the words to express our gratitude and deepest feelings for allowing
us the opportunity to be "foster guardians" to Rowdy. From
the moment we laid eyes on him, we fell in love instantly - perhaps he is living
proof and confirmation that our "dream Lab" really does exist! We thank
both God and yourselves for this strong connection and inner peace. We
look forward to the future with Rayneriver Labs; respecting, honoring and promoting
all your hard work and efforts, but most of all, sharing our life and love with
Rowdy. Lesley,
you are not only a true friend, but also my mentor
..your knowledge is invaluable. God
Bless you and thank you, All
Our Love, |

"Rayneriver's Ultimate Suede" (Suede)
| August
23/03 Dear Lesley & Kevin, Thank you once again for allowing us the priviledge of sharing your "adorable" Labs with us. We are so excited for this long awaited moment and welcome puppy "Suede" with open arms and many loving hearts! Our only wish for now is that he continues to thrive in good health and spirits and that he brings us as much love, joy and laughter as Rowdy has (and that's a lot!!) You've always been there for us right from the start and we feel so very lucky to have you as friends. But, now it's your turn to receive many happy returns and see all your dreams come true (you know what I mean). We hope, in some way, we will be a part of those dreams. With
Love from, |
