Hi Cyndi! I hope you are doing well! I don't know if you have seen any of my status updates, but I wanted to tell you that LT is now a certified therapy dog! He is such a perfect little guy for therapy work. The residents and patients we visit with absolutely love him! He is one of the best things to ever come into my life and I am so grateful that we found you and your wonderful pugs! I thought that we would stop getting comments from people when we're out once he was full-grown, but I think we get stopped more often now than when he was a puppy! Everyone is always amazed at how good looking he is! LT is the best dog and has been great therapy to me as well as many patients! Thanks again for doing such a great job breeding!

Hi Cyndi! Email from puppy owner: Jeff Karp
Dear Cindi,
It has been about eight months since we took home our puppy, Rascal... AKA" Buddy". if you recall he was from Harry and
Diamond, the largest of the litter. I just wanted you to know that he is doing just fine. He is so lovable, was easily housebroken,
loves to play and has a great face. All my pugs eat Nutro, "natural choice " lamb and rice formula with the
small bites. Once a day they will get one teaspoon of "the Missing Link". There coat is so luxurious while, they don't have
any Oder. I also sent you a few pictures of our latest pug, Rascal.
 Hi Cyndi: I just wanted to give you an update on the puppy Adam and I got from
your fabulous breed of Diamond and Sir Harry! We named him "Johnny Rambo"-aka Rambo. He is simply wonderful....easily
housebroken, so smart and has such a loving and fun personality. People stop me all the time and tell me that they have never
seen such a handsome pug and that I should consider putting him into modeling! He loves to go for car rides, and play with
his endless amounts of toys. He has been such a great companion to me while Adam has been overseas-we go everywhere together.
His coat has remained so soft, and with the exception of very scary reaction to his rabies vaccination, is in perfect
health! I love him so much and will definitely be coming to you in the future to get him a friend. Thank you for bringing
such joy into my house! I have attached the latest picture of him for you to see-I can't believe he's almost a year!
time flies by so fast! Sincerely, http://www.dogboarding.com/dashboard/comments CommentsCurrent CommentsPatrick says:05/25/2010 12:16:33 AM My dogs are always happy with Cyndi's care!

Thanks Cyndi! corrina Masse says:05/24/2010 10:39:22 PM I would board my pugs with Luvdpugs in a heartbeat, Cyndi is a very trustworthy dogsitter, and my dogs seem to be a home with her....
_____________________________________________ Pixie Pete's Story Sheba and the only Twister litter I had.
I will never forget this little pup, he only survived because he was a Twister pup! We sure miss Twister.
This is Pixie Pete's Struggle for life and a Happy Ending,
a beginning.
He was born to Sheba and Twister on a very hot July afternoon,
a normal delivery and was simular in size and strength to his 2 siblings.
At day 5, he began with diarrhea. I had never had a pup that young
with diarrhea and dehydyation. The vet didn't give much hope, but he had fluid injected under the skin, a cortisone
shot to relax the inflammation of his intestines and put on Albon for 7 days.
He was only 12 oz. and then went down to 10. Not that good.
I decided to suppliment his milk because he was not strong enough yet to
suckle even for a few minutes. His diarrhea stopped in 2 days thank god. When I knew he would make it, I named him Pixie
always looking like a female, but she was a he,So it was Pixie Pete. Around 2 weeks old, Pixie Pete then got
pneumonia possilby aspirating some milk. So then it was Augmentin and he hated it! He then started his personality.
But, again he began gaining weight and gone from 10 oz to 1
lb 1 oz at 3 weeks old.
Slowly Pixie Pete grew strong and let his siblings hang out on top of him!
When he was getting beat up, he yelled for me to pick him up! I carried him around in the kitchen and he learned how
to make coffee with me, eat cereal out of mommies bowl, and now watched as I warmed up his own food. I began with rice cereal
and oatmeal, then added softened Canidae with goats milk.
He loved life now and gained to 2lb 2oz by 7 weeks old. His siblings were
now 4 pounds!
He was the cutiest little guy, not quite looking like a pug, but I knew
it wouldn't be long he would be a little miniture baby puggie.
I could hold him like a baby, coddle him watching TV and he soon loved to
sit on my neck sitting with Stucky and me making this little noise in his throat that I will NEVER forget. I let him
kiss me all over, who cares!
His 3 vet checks went very well, having 2 testicles already, clear
lungs and a nice strong heart.
His little face, looking just like his daddys, Twister, was the cutiest
and the most unique looking, he melted me. I began to worry what kind of new home would take the time with this little
guy.
But then A very nice lady named Patti from Arizona began emailing me and
then called, letting me know that her father had just passed away, and she had to go out of state and clear out his home.
She said she needed Pixie Pete. She really did. I still wasn't sure he would be normal, but by the time Patti was
ready to come home to Arizona, Pixie Pete was ready to leave his mommy. She flew into John Wayne almost 2 weeks ago now, and
they fell in love in the airport, then flying away back to Arizona to live. I cryed as I drove off, not letting my husband
see, but I just knew he would have a very special home with Patti and her pugs. God I miss his snuggle and humm he always
gave me.
Thank you Patti

Here are some of her emails.
Hi Cyndi,
I could tell it was hard for you to part with him and I had tears in
my
eyes for you. My trip to WI was so emotionally draining as I had to clear out my father's house and to say it was sad and difficult is an understatement. To have been able to get Pixie Pete on the way home meant so very much to me. I have been looking for the "right pug" for almost a year and when I stumbled upon your web site and you wrote about a little guy then had those cute pictures I had to see him. The pictures did not do him justice as truly he is beyond cute. Even though small, he is one absolutely sharp looking pug. I feel
truly blessed to own him. He has proven to be an absolute delight and how many puppies get in a new home and know to
do their business outside? I have only had him a little over a week and he just fit in like a glove.
He is a peach and indeed truly loved. My boyfriend is over this evening and is carrying Pixie Pete around like a newborn. Pixie Pete may not be in California any longer, but he is living like a "STAR"!!!! Patti Hi Cyndi, I got my Pug Talk yesterday, saw Thad's picture in there. Now you should really be getting calls. Your pugs are top notch. Pixie Pete has a very outstanding look now and remember I told you his one ear was not sitting right. I believe that with teething that occurred and that has now corrected. He has a very stunning look and seems to grow more beautiful by the day. He is definitely establishing his pecking order and will sometimes go after Toby for food, not to hurt him though he just seems to go through what looks like he is going to bite. I have had to yell at him though so he does not get aggressive. Carl said just because he is cute doesn't mean you can let him get away with everything which is true. I will have to send some pictures soon. He is so smart. I would surely recommend your pugs to anyone. I would definitely get another from you. You did a great job with Pixie Pete. Thad has a really unique look and if he keeps at it he will probably be invited to Westminster too. Have a great day, Patti
Hi,
I am really thankful that just last week I got Pixie Pete's rabies shot. Today, I was in the kitchen
and he always plays with his toys and is near me. I looked down and Pixie Pete had a real dead pigeon-sissy me screamed
and ran and called Pixie Pete away from it. Somehow, he found a dead pigeon in my yard and brought it in through the
doggy door-how I do not know as the doggie door is not very big and the pigeon was almost the size of Pixie Pete. My
other dogs were not the least bit interested so I know it was him who got it in and he was pulling at it like a stuffed animals.
Ugh, I took a Huggies wipe and wiped his face. I got all the dogs outside closed off the doggy door and ugh had to take
the lid of a box and slide this dead pigeon into another box ugh-it's skin had not been penetrated so Pixie Pete did not break
the skin but I know they have germs. Of course Pixie Pete had no idea what he'd gotten he just thought he found
himself a new toy! Yikes!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I can get out of work in time, my vet is having free pictures with Santa so I will have another
one coming close to Christmas.
Pixie Pete still makes that cute little purr noise sometimes. He is such an affectionate
little guy...always there with a kiss. He antogonizes my other dogs, all of whom are larger than him of course, endlessly.
They seem to thrive on it now. He blended in so well with my other dogs. They will run around here at what
seems to be 100 mph chasing each other etc. Dr. Phil always says to get excited about your life....well Pixie Pete gives that saying a whole
new meaning. He is such a spunky guy. I think once he gets a tad bigger his other testicle will be there.
Your vet and my regular vet found two and the vet last week only felt one. In view of almost losing Toby during
neutering, I am a little gun shy about getting Pixie Pete neutered. My female is fixed and I don't let any of my dogs
out of my yard or site, so I may not get him altered.
Have a great week,
Patti

> Pixie Pete is into untying shoes, pulling on pants legs and pulling
toilet paper from the roll. No grass grows under that dog's feet, he is active as can be and has a true zest for life. He is still a squirt weighing in at 10 pounds, but I think he was only 3 pounds when I got him so he is developing nicely. He has a handsome face and is just being a little dickens! He steals everyone's heart wherever he goes with his endearing character. > Patti -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow 8th is great. Harry is a good looking pug...I like Thad's look too. You know how you love all of your dogs a lot, but every now and then you come across one that is extraordinary....Pixie Pete is that one in a million-truly I was blessed to get that boy. He has such a zest for life-just a little charmer loves everyone and everything. He and one of my pug boys are really close. When we brought Pixie Pete to Petsmart, he still fit in that little carrier I had at the John Wayne airport so he has not gotten too much bigger. He is just so darling-enough of my bragging! Have a good night, Patti That Disco Diva Star has such a black forehead-very stunning. That is a cute picture of
you and your pugs in the home section. I am surprised everyone wants females. I have heard that male pugs
have the best personalities or is that a generalization? I have never owned a female pug...I have my pug a poo
and she is sweet. Pixie Pete gets along well with all the dogs, but seems to like Toby (the last pug I bought from Judy
Ybarra) the best. Ironically, Toby is the one he goes after when I put everyone's food down-he growls and tries
to nip at Toby to steal his food before he even eats his own. Now I sit on the floor and supervise so it does not happen.
It won't be long before it is too hot to walk the dogs here unless before 6 am. I feel
sorry for Truman as he must have been very devastated since he worked so much with Twister. Very sad. They are
family and it is difficult when we lose them.

Cyndi takes such excellent care of our dogs that I never have to worry about them at all when we're away on vacation. She gives them lots of love and attention, and takes care of any special needs they might have. I recommend her boarding services without hesitation!
