Three Beautiful Staffies All from us!

Hey Janet, here are some pics of the boys. they've turned out healthy and full of mischief. potato (dark brindle) is a little bundle of energy he is always running around acting all kinds of silly. not as muscled but more lean..like a cheetah. moondoggy (white and black) is more laid back and a total sweetheart, he loves to just curl up next to anyone and snuggle. he a little beef cake too. all muscled and such butter likes to try and boss them around to no avail but at the end of the night they like to become a big doggie snooze pile.. we neutered potato a couple of weeks ago, he got his stitches out today...which is good cause all he was doing before hand was hump butter and moondoggie.. ewwwwie. Moondoggie will be next just a soon as dad makes the appointment to do so. sorry i took so long to send pictures.. me and Richard were working in retail this past Christmas season and we didn't really do much but sleep, eat and work...barf. I send some more pics in a bit...i just have to look through them all. Victoria and Richard Mangan

Hey Janet, Here she is in all her glory!!! She is such a mess. I absolutely love this gal. She is such a huge part of our family now it's hard to imagine ever living without her. Not sure if you can tell in the pics but at 4 months old this girl already has pronounced jaws. She loves the kids and makes the most out of playing in the leaves with them!! I raked leaves all day and laughed so hard at all of them playing in them that it didn't matter that I had to do it again!!! I am so happy with this girl and you have been such a great help as well. She is very photogenic that I can't wait for it to snow and see what she does funny for the camera in that! Thanks for a such a prime example of the breed, she really is the poster dog for staffies.

Hi Janet, we just wanted to take the time to say thanks for introducing us to this breed!!! We are so impressed, and just adore our little 'Onyx'...you know her as Summer. You are truly an amazing breeder, we would take a Massie dog any day! Its been a great experience dealing with you. Onyx is defiantly one of a kind, and has the toughest little personality, she gives 70lb. Titus a run for his money. She is the boss! We are looking forward to showing with you, and appreciate all the tips and advice you have to offer. Thanks again! Paul & Courtney Kendall

Hi Janet, today is Khornus's birthday and he's 1 year old.  We just took some pictures around our place so you can see how much hes grown!  He's quite the character and we could not imagine being any happier with our choice.  Khronus means the world to us and we are so happy and thankful that you were able to introduce him into our lives.  Thanks again, hope you enjoy the pictures (we also post videos of him on youtube, just type "Khronus").  Ron and Savanna

HI there! I just thought you might enjoy receiving some pictures on how Miss Bella is doing. I can't believe she is 7 months old now, she is extremely smart and I am really contemplating starting her on agility training because of her intelligence and energy! I get so many compliments on how beautiful she is, it makes me wonder how she would fare in a dog show, can she do those? And oh my goodness does she love the water, she use to scratch on my shower door until she got in when she was a puppy, I wanted to get mad because she was all wet but it was so cute, how could I?! Hehe.  Thanks again for a wonderful Girl!!  Amanda Brown

Just wanted to let you guys know that our staffy bull is a wonderful little guy, we named him Bowen, which is gaelic for "archer". He has in many ways exceeded our expectations and we wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you guys did in raising and breeding him. He shows no fear of new situations or people, in fact they seem to delight him. When someone walks past him during his walk and pays him no mind he gets the most depressed look on his face as if to say, "That guy didn't think I was cute, I'm sad." He always seems to be in a happy mood, loves children and most importantly sleeps completely through the night with not even a whimper. He's also slowly learning to respect the cats. Can't thank you guys enough, -Ben and Erin

Axel playing in the snow. The snow is taller than him. :+)Hey Janet, I just wanted to thank you for all your help and the gorgeous puppy that we received. Axel is adjusting to his new home and family well. My female (Zoe) seems to have taken a liking to him already. We got about a foot of snow up here in Massachusetts yesterday and both were outside this morning with the kids having a great time. I'm sending some pictures that I thought you would get a chuckle out of. If it's alright by you, I'd love to stay in touch with you to keep you updated on our new addition. Again thank you for a beautiful baby and a smooth transition. Michelle & Family  UPDATE Best Friends!!! Hi Janet, Hope all is well w/you and your family. Just a few quick pictures of Axel that I thought you'd enjoy. He's doing great. What a sweet boy he is. We're getting ready to head back south w/him, the girls and the kids to Ft. Wilderness in Disney. I will send pictures when we get home. Talk to you soon, Michelle

Hello. We named our new puppy Vinny. He has found his own seat and place in our home, as well as 10 acres to roam and explore. We will send new pictures from time to time. Keep in touch. Thanks again, The Conley Family

Hey Janet: Just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how Scout a.k.a. Moonlight Serenade is fairing.  She is just a huge bundle of Love and Joy.  Smart as a whip, funny as a comedian and as beautiful as a beauty queen with the sass of a super model.  Her eyes have turned a striking crystal blue and the vet says she will be on the big/stocky end of the scale.  We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her.  She is so amazingly smart.  She sits, comes, stays, walks beautifully on a leash and rings her bell when she wants to go out and do her business.  (We have been working with a trainer, which helps tremendously)    Hope you and your family are all happy and healthy!    Lisa Samples

Hello All: My girlfriend and I wanted to tell you all a belated Happy Thanksgiving and tell you that we have renamed Daisy to Lovely because thats all she does is love us, She is such an amazing animal, i never thought a dog could have so much personality and she can be so funny, she has a new trick where if you sit on the couch she will jump up in your lap, and climb up and put her paws around your neck for hugs and kisses. I haven't discussed this with my girlfriend yet but i'd love to get another staffy for her to play with since she loves playing with my girlfriend's dads pitbull but i'm going to include some pictures of her in this email too. If we do get another staffy i'd like to get another one from your kennel you have beautiful dogs and the temperaments are great, or if you have another situation like you did with Daisy (Lovely) where they just need a great home let me know please so i could discuss it with my girlfriend and future wife. Also we thought you might get a laugh out of this story, when we first brought her home we took her to my girlfriends moms for dinner, and she thought it would be fun to chase the cat, well the cat ran over the dinner table while we were eating dinner and lovely thought it would be ok for her to do it too right in the middle of a spaghetti dinner. Have a great Christmas this year and may the peace of our lord and savior be with you always Yours in Christ Kyle Bonham and Jessica McLean

Buying our staffy puppy, Anikan from Massie's (Nov 08) was the best decision my husband has made, besides marrying me!  Anikan has been fabulous addition to our family.   He's is perfectly healthy and a handsome dog. He's the love of our home and the neighborhood.  Everybody loves Anikan and Anikan loves everybody (dogs and people alike).  As soon as we get a larger home, we'll be back to Massie's to buy our second staffy.   The Francisco Family - Tri State Area

Hey Janet, Tiki is Doing great!  She loves Jed and all his friends she hates to see them leave on Sundays.  She sleeps at the foot of my bed and hates to get up in the mornings to go out; I believe she would sleep all the time…LoL… We have lots of pictures but not on my computer yet.  Will send when we get them.  She loves to ride in the car, she would go with us every time we leave if she could. HaHa…We love her so much, and we love you for bringing us together.  Thanks a lot…  Ray S.

Hello Janet,  I hope you got the pictures. Porter is doing great he is such a great dog we love him so much. He is just like you said very well mannered and sweet he is so gentle with our little daughter and loves playing with her. He loves Frisbee although I cannot get him to play on his spring pole he just sits there and looks at it like what is that so says allot to how I made it probably lol. But he is such a joy thank you for giving us the opportunity to get him he is so wonderful. Oh and i just wanted to tell you this is my first staffy ever I LOVE the breed and will never have another breed of dog again. I think we got broken in with just the right dog to porter is wonderful. Well thanks again  , Kevin Nugent and Family

Dear Janet,  I would like to share with you a little about Dazzle, her name now is Tuska.  She is adorable and loves to meet people. Every time she sees someone she expects that they will stop to say hi to her. When people do not stop, she  starts to follow them trying to get their attention.  She also loves and misses your kids. When she hears a voice of a little  child, she wants to go play. We bought her a crate, she loves it. When she is not taking naps over there,  she likes to sleep in Jeff's wool jacket, warm and cozy (lives in the floor  now). Thursday's night we are bringing her to some socialization class we found  close to our home. She is going to Puppy Kindergarten and this morning we brought her to a play  date with the little puppies. She loves to run around with other dogs and  she is not intimidated at all with some big dogs that we found downstairs in  our building during our little walks. We are very happy with this new addition to our home!  My family in Brazil love her. I put her in front of the camera in my  computer and connect to Brazil via skype and everyone is enjoying the opportunity to say hello. Thank you,  Priscilla and Jeff

Hi Janet.  I just wanted to write to say "thank you" for our Bullet.  He has quickly become part of our family, and often joins us on visits to relatives and short vacations.  Bullet is a regular favorite at my son's football practices, where he greets everyone with a smile and wagging tail.  He gets along well with other dogs too, and enjoys going for walks with his friends Gracie (a Chocolate Lab), Rocky (a Golden Retriever) and Bingo (a 100 pound mutt).  At home, Bullet enjoys romping around in the back yard, through the edge of the woods and around the pond.  He loves wrestling the treats out of his Kong toys and digging for buried treasure in the sandbox, but his favorite is probably just chasing old plastic cartons and 2-liter bottles through yard. Bullet has just completed his series of puppy vaccinations, and his vet says he is a healthy, sound and intelligent dog.  Bullet has recently started a basic training class.  Despite being the youngest in the class, he is one of the better behaved.  He easily learned "sit" at the beginning of the first class, and we're now learning "down".  Bullet typically ends his day by falling asleep beside one of us on the recliner or bed.  Thanks again for a great dog!  Regards, Joel

Hi Janet,    Anna in NOR CAL here.. bought the blue and white male Staffy from you a few months ago now named Zeppelin! Anyway, I just wanted to send you a few pics. My boyfriend and I are SO happy with Zeppelin, he is the sweetest most loving dog I've ever met. If he could have me hold him all day I think he would be happy. He loves hugs and kisses and if he doesn't get enough of either he is not happy! He goes to work with my boyfriend often and just follows him around trying to "help out". He goes to work with me too and likes to sit in "his" chair in my office.  He loves the water so we take him to the river and beach as much as possible. At home he plays with his older brother Eres (cocker Sheppard mix) or lazies around on one of his TWO  doggie beds! He LOVES to go places so we take him pretty much anywhere we can. If I open my car door and turn my back the next thing I know he is sitting in the passenger seat waiting to go for a ride! Everywhere we take him people fall in love with him, they can't believe what a sweetie he is or how cute and mindful he is. We tell all our friends that they need a Staffy too! My boyfriend and I definitely have decided to have another Staffy as soon as we have our own home. We're hoping for a Brown Brindle girl so we'll just keep checking your page when the time comes to bring a new wonderful family member home. :)  Thanks again and take care!  ~Anna Sun and Zeppelin

 

Hey Janet  This is a long time coming.  These are pictures of Diesel (also known as “Paul”).  We bought Diesel from you in February 2007.  He was the one that was 6 months old when we bought him and we met your husband in Charlottesville.   Well things are going great with Diesel and he is an awesome dog.  His nickname is “The Wheeze” because if there is one inch of space between the two of us he wheezes his way right in the middle.  Diesel has a good life; going many places and hanging out with may other dogs.  We have absolutely no complaints with him.  He is awesome with kids and honestly would rather play with my daughters than other dogs.  He is well known at Lake Anna where he goes with every weekend in the summer.  He is now 42 pounds and very healthy.  He is quite the licker though.  I have never seen a dog lick as much as he does.  He also chases his tail all the time but he really enjoys that.  Hope all is well and we have referred many people to you.  I’m not sure if any one called you though. Have a good Christmas and New Years.  Doug, Stephanie, & Diesel
