Dear Lesley and family,
 
Brady is the sweetest puppy imaginable and we are so thrilled to have him in our lives. His big brother, Riley, has been so gentle with him and they have become the 'bestest' of buds. We can't thank you enough, Lesley, for all your wisdom and advice. Your sincerity, patience, knowledge, empathy, and unconditional availability are what make you one of a kind in the labrador retriever world. Your selflessness and obvious passion for your breeding is very evident in your website. Your genuine love and warmth are instilled in every single puppy because each one of them means the world to you. Thank you so much for being 'you'.
 
Warmest regards,
Anne and family
 
P.S.  Pictures are coming!

"Rayneriver's Water Lily" (Lily)

January 7 , 2009

Hi Leslie,

....She is an absolute delight to have, a perfect fit to our family. Her behaviours are wonderful, she is very smart - learning to sit and to go the to door to go outside. Moreover, your techniques for housebreaking and training her have been a real asset to us. She is great with our daughters, including our 12 month old, and anyone who visits. My husband particularly enjoys the fact that she is not a "barker". I cannot thank you enough for this beautiful animal, we love her already.

Thanks again,

Jennifer

Hi Lesley,

Just a short note to thank you for all your communications with us and concern for Ozzie.

He is a wonderful dog and a very fast learner. We have had nothing but great comments on his looks and temperament.

He has been a joy to our family. I have passed your name on to other people who are looking for lab pups and told them they cannot go wrong with you. I will send you more pictures as he grows .

Once again thank-you ,

Shawn & Lori

Hi Lesley,

Just thought I would give you a quick update on Ozzie.

This is picture of him from the vet yesterday after he got fixed. He is a wonderful dog that gives so much love.

Thanks,
Shawn

"Sawyer" & his new family:  Jim & Tynesa Diakiw - Photo taken at age 7 weeks

"Rayneriver's The Frisco Kid" (Sawyer)

January 2 , 2009

Hi Lesley!

I thought I would touch base quickly and let you know that we have finally given a name to our little guy.  We have decided to call him Sawyer.  He is adjusting well, and is a very smart puppy.  (Like you didn't already know.)

....He has had his first visit with his Dr., and overall she was very happy with his health and temperment.

We are both so happy to have him.  I'm not quite sure how we filled our days before Sawyer.  Thank you.

Jim and Tynesa

Hi Lesley & Kevin! Hope you are well.

....We feel we had a good experience with you and Kevin, and like the small family environment.  Your patience and understanding made dealing with you easy.  Thanks for all the info as well.....we've gone back to it more than a few times, and it hasn't even been a week.

I've attached a couple of photos of Sawyer, he's grown so much since we picked him up.

Take Care, Jim & Tynesa

Hello Lesley and Kevin!

I hope you and your family are well! 

I thought I would say a quick hello and send some recent pictures your way.  Sawyer is growing by leaps and bounds and I figured you wouldn't want to miss out.  Its hard to believe some days that he was a cuddly ball of fur not that long ago.  The pictures on the website attest to that. 
He continues with his "puppy school" next week, something we all enjoy doing together.  I will continue to keep in touch and share his growth spurts.  Until then....

Take Care,

Tynesa


"Hmmm....this looks interesting!" says Sawyer at 4 1/2 months of age.

Hi Lesley!

Hope your family is well!

I thought I would say a quick hello and congratulations on the upcoming litter! I can't wait to see the pictures!

I wanted to pass on a picture of Sawyer....This is one of his very first boat rides. We've been out to the cabin a few times. I don't think I would be exaggerating if I said the lake is his very favorite place to be.

I'll be waiting for those photos! Take Care!
