I still remember that day...
Bringing home a new puppy...PRICELESS : )
Hi Jamie
I took the boys to the vet this morn and they both passed. I am so relieved. I did not tell you but I tried to buy a pom pup locally here about a month ago. The pup was beautiful, a male and 5 months old. He seemed so healthy, I nearly did not take him for an exam but decided I should. He failed terribly having the patella luxation in both rear legs, only one descended testicle, mites in ears and many fleas. Needless to say, I had to take him back. This was a different vet (same place) and the pups were much younger but he didn't think anything was wrong with their legs. He could not tell for sure about the testicles because they were so small. I just hope they both come down because if they are castrated it is much easier and less costly if they are both in the scrotum. I think you are a much more responsible breeder. I liked the way you kept your dogs, they all looked healthy and happy. These two brothers I got from you are beautiful both in looks and personality. I know they will become valued members of our family and will be loved beyond belief.
Thanks again

Just wanted to let you know how grateful we are to you guys. Polo is doing amazing and the whole family has already become so attached to him. He is growing by leaps and bounds and has already stolen the hearts of all who come into contact with him. My friends at work beg me to bring him in so they can play with him. He has been such a wonderful addition to our family and I can't thank you enough for him. I have given your website to many of my friends and recommended you guys very highly. Again, thank you so much!

Jamie and Lilly are the greatest! We couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Hi Jamie.
We wanted to let you know how happy we are with our little girl we got from you last summer. But also, were just blown away by all the help you've been over the phone at all hours of the day and night, when as first time dog owners we would panic over the littlest thing...LOL. We choose you guys after our neighbor got his dog from you, and now it's us recommending you to everyone we know. Thanks guys. We really do love ya.

Jamie ~ I recently got Oliver from you about 4 weeks ago(extra small black pom). Everything is going wonderful, he just had his check up at the doctors and everything looked great! He is now 2.10-lbs! He loves to play outside and go on walks. Oliver loves toys, especially the big ones! Potty training has gone very well. He is so sweet and such a wonderful addition to our family. Everyone loves him and cannot get over how cute and nice his blackish/brown coat is. He is sprinting around the apartment one minute and the next cuddled up to Rick or myself. We love him very much and thank you for him. Trista & Rick in Frederick, MD
Hey Jamie!
I just wanted to send you an email and let you know that Hunter is doing superb!! He just finished all his shots and the vet is extremely pleased as to how he is growing. His knees are fab! which was a HUGE concern for me as it is very costly to fix them.
He is becoming a great companion for our girl Abby. she led a very sheltered life for the first 6mo before we got her, and is still trying to come out of her shell after having her for 5 mo. Hunter is way more outgoing and laid back than she is.
We take him to Petsmart on Saturdays for puppy play time along with Abby. He is the l life of the party and runs all over the place (even at 8wks) and Abby sits in the corner and barks and anything and everything that moves. He is showing her that it is okay to come out and see new things. I can't wait till he starts going for walks outside with her. I bet he will be showing her the ropes there too.
Than you again for answering our emails and meeting with us to help us choose a puppy. We have recommended you to friends and told everyone who asks about Hunter where he came from. We will be seeing you again to get another Pom.

Jamie,
I have been searching online at different breeders for hours (and days!) and when I came across your website, I had a feeling ofcomfort and trust with what I saw. The pictures of your puppies made me smile. Your dogs look happy, healthy and bright-eyed ... and we could tell from your website how much you love them. I, too, have been shocked at some of the prices that are being asked for by different breeders and am impressed with your attitude on that issue. Not everybody can afford a large price tag. We are also prepared to take the drive to pick up the puppy. It's a 6 hour drive from northern NJ.

Hey! Just wanted to let you know the car ride home, she slept the entire time. She didn't really come out of her shell until this morning. Yesterday I think she was so exhausted from everyone playing with her and the car ride. She didn't get sick either :) She slept a lot yesterday as well as all through the night until about 5:00 this morning, she whined to go outside too! No accidents at all! Today she came to work with me, Dr. says she is very healthy! She recieved her bordetella shot today as well as I started her on heartworm prevention. She is eating and drinking just fine. I will be sure to send you pictures soon. Thanks so much for everything and thanks for bringing us a bundle of joy. :)
Thank you again!

Hi Jamie!
We just wanted to update you on little Max! He's doing great! Playing and jumping and getting along with our other dogs just fine! :) He is just as cute as can be and so sweet. You were right, he has such a sweet personality. He's starting to eat more since he's getting adjusted to us and his new home. We were a little afraid at first because when we took him to the vet, after bringing him home, they said he was really lethargic and had to give him some vitamins, they said he must have just been stressed going to a new home and getting used to everything. But he is doing much better now! A tiny bundle of fur and sweetness :) I've attached some pics that I snapped of him around the apartment; our two other dogs checking him out, sleeping with daddy, knocked out after a long first day home, laying with april (our poodle), relaxing under the couch :), and just being cute!
Me and Cavell hope all is well with you, your family, and all your dogs and puppies :) Oh and how is that tiny brown baby girl pup that you were so worried about doing?
Thanks again for Max!

Hi Jaime, sorry it's taken so long to send pictures. A week after we brought Ethel home, Rick got sick. He's recovered from surgery now and is finally back to work. Ethel was the best medicine ... she's definitely a daddy's girl! She is just a darling. We all love her to death. She caught on to the indoor potty tray in no time flat! Lucy has been patient with her "puppiness" considering she's only a little over a year older than Ethel. They get along fine... even when Ethel is biting Lucy's toes, hanging off her face, or grabbing the end of her tail as they run around. :-) They're a hoot! She's a pretty little girl, LOVES to cuddle and hasn't found a lap she doesn't like. She's happiest on a lap.
Hope you are all well. Happy Holidays.
Nancy in New Jersey
Jamie,
Here is the newest pic of Chi. She is doing great and she's practically attached to me by the paw. lol
She loves to play until she practically passes out and I did progressively move her to a different smaller puppy food and she seems to like it a lot and she got some weight on her so she's really healthy. She's also been really easy to train so all in all she's just awesome so thank you very much.

Hi Jamie,
I wanted to thank you again for everything and for the wonderful friend I have now :) and let you know I took him to the vet and the Dr said he is beautiful and very healthy! He goes back in two weeks for his next shot. I will be sure to send you updated pictures and let you know that all is well. He is an amazing little guy, so sweet. Thank you again!

Jamie,
The girls and I enjoyed our visit with you and all the members of Bow-Wow Kennels yesterday.
It is clearly a labor of love that you take great pride in and it shows in the clear clean water bowels and the order of your kennel, they are all very lucky to be there with you on the mountain side.
We have spoken of little else since we left, names for girls and names for boys and who will make the choices and perform the task of care and feeding.
We look forward to information on the progress of the upcoming litters. The little all black girl (name) and the sable male with the " bear " face ( name) are the two we think we would like a puppy from if it takes.
We might need to make another visit if that is OK.
Thank you,
Richard, Katherine, and Charlotte in VA
Hi, Jamie,
Hunter's doing great, he did not get car sick, he is exploring the house and feel pretty comfortable in the kennel for the night. Now Julie's priority is to get him house trained.
We just came back from the vet and he said that he sound and look great. I am very happy.
He ask us how big the parents are. Do you think he'll be "smaller" in size as an adult? Not that I care, we love him no matter what. My camera is in the shop for repair, but I'll send pics when I get it back.
Best regards,
Milena in VA Beach
Hey Jamie,
I hope everything is going well with you guys, we saw that you had a new litter a couple of days ago. That is exciting (: I just wanted to let you guys know that Bear is doing great and update you now that he is 4 months old. He is so playful and smart. He learned how to potty on a puppy pad in about a week, and now that the weather is finally starting to warm up we are starting to try to potty train him outside. He also learned how to sit. He loves taking walks, and runs around the house going crazy when somebody comes home. Bear is one of the friendliest dogs I have ever met, when we take him on walks he wants to play with everyone. He became part of the family instantly and is spoiled constantly by my mom. I attached some pictures of him, he has gotten so big. He is now 5 pounds, and we last took him to the vet 3 weeks ago. He has all his shots and the vet said everything is good. Anyways..I just wanted to thank you guys and update you. I hope all is good, and have a great week!

I took Lucy to the vet and everything checked out ok. Thank you so much for answering all my questions and breeding such quality Poms. Lucy is absolutely adorable and is a great addition to the family. People ask me about her all the time, so I put your name out there. and I will definitely come to you guys for another one in the future! Thanks again,

Hi! Sorry I am just now getting back to you. The last few days have been crazy!!! Rhett is loving her new home. You were right, she definitely has a little personality!
Rhett LOVES Scarlett, Scarlett doesn't quite know what to think about Rhett. Rhett is FULL of energy and likes to jump around, chase us and play outside. She definitely knows her name and prefers to be called Rhett Butler or Small Fry. She is not a huge fan of riding in the car and threw up the entire way home and on the way to the vet. She's eating great and likes to steal bites of Scarlett's food. She has a few new toys and a few hand me downs from her sister that she enjoys playing with too. She is pretty well behaved and doesn't bark but has the most pitiful cry/whimper in the whole world.
I took her to the vet on Monday afternoon. They told me her ears were infected and full of wax and gave me some stuff to clean them out for the next couple of weeks. They called me on Tuesday morning to let me know her fecal test came back positive for an internal parasite (it has a long name that I don't remember off the top of my head). They put her on two weeks worth of antibiotics and we go back then.
Thanks so much again! We love her! If you have any tips on how to get Scarlett to accept her and not growl/bark/run away when Rhett is around I'd love some tips!
PS I'll upload some pics this weekend and send them to you

Hi~
Zelda just received a PERFECT vet visit. She is very feisty and loveable!! She did wonderful on our long car ride home to Wisconsin. Potty training is also going very well, she whines at the door already and has had only 1 accident.
I will defiantly recommend your kennel!! I can also defiantly tell that all your puppies and parents are well cared for and very much loved.
Thank you

Hi! Jamie,
Took little Diva to the vet yesterday and she was pronounced "absolutely adorable". A little concerned about her weight, 9 oz., but over all she is just fine. She was given a wormer dose and she goes back on the 13th for her next shots. The vet even had to take her back to show Diva to the rest of her staff. The first night her glucose level dropped and I mixed her food with the Karo syrup and she sprang back. I had to put her at her food or feed her from my hand the first 24 hours, but now she knows where her food is, even though the food and water dishes were with her in her box, she eats at will now. Her little personality is just blooming. When my grandson comes in she whimpers for him to pick her up out of her box. The first morning she was home, he was down on the floor with her, before school and she got down on her front paws with her hind end in the air and barked at him to play. This tiny little bark!! It was so cute She is exploring the house and the out of doors, under supervision of course. Everyone who meets her just falls in love with her. On the way home we stopped and put her in the grass and she did her little business just like she knew what was expected of her. In front of PetSmart a lady asked me if she was a cat or a dog, she had never seen a pup so small and she had owned a chocolate pom herself at onetime. She is settling in so easy, when she is in her box she is just as content, with no crying, she snuggles up with a couple of stuffed animals and a blanket. I ordered a metal kennel cage for her. I will let you know how she progresses. It has only been 2 days but we are doing well together. Thank you!

Jamie,
I'm not sure if you remember but it's Brooke.
I took Chiyo home last December and now she's twelve days away from being a year old.
She has grown to be extremely beautiful and I just wanted to let you know how she was doing.
She's absolutely everything to me and I'm very grateful to you.
She has managed to reach a max weight of a whopping 3.03 pounds. Haha :)
She's a tiny little thing and still has one tiny pink dot on her nose.
She has an adorable obsession with feet and she chases much larger dogs.
She's also very intelligent and she knows so many tricks.
I've attached a few photos for you.
I hope you are doing well and thank you again.
She's the light of my life.
Brooke
