How many of you keep....

[sadies mom]

I've sent Sadies Pictures with a card or a note a few times. Sadie is the best dog I ever had, in every way and she is so adorable. I really thought he would be interested on her progress. He never responded so I stopped. His loss.

I send pics and updates of Ally to her breeder. I actually called her when I was looking for another little one, but she didn't have a female so I looked elsewhere. She is so proud of Ally, she keeps her little photos on her frig. I have sent one pic of Tia to her breeder and will probably only send only one more to let them know how she is doing. I'm still upset that they adopted her out with some many medical issues that spread throughout my house and my neighbor's (who has cancer).

Keeping in touch with your breeder is dangerous. It can lead to bringing home more Yorkies! We love Max and Teddy's breeder and send her periodic updates. I wish we lived closer so that I could have her teach me how to groom the boys.

Oh I'm sure!!

I am friends with two of the breeders of my dogs. Ruby is from a puppymill so the only contact I would have with them would be to try and shut them down! I do keep in contact with Reno's breeder , sending pictures and seeing her at shows.

Razz's breeder (Tammy), and I stay in contact through YT and FB on almost a daily basis....I love it! I've never known a more caring, devoted breeder than Tammy. When she asks that you send pictures or stay in touch, it is not just talk....she *really* wants you to stay in touch. We talk and compare Razz to his mom, Livi, discuss his endearing personality, and how much we both love him♥

We send update pics and notes all of the time to Mia's birthplace. We state it that way, she doesn't know she is a d o p t e d.... We have also went out and visited with Beth and she sends emails. We feel blessed to know she cares enough to follow up. And I can't imagine not letting her know what Mia is doing and how she is progressing into a lovely adult girl.

I love staying in touch with the adoptive parents of my Yorkies.
It's like a great big extended family! And when they take the time
to send photos...woohoo...it's the best! I am totally appreciative.

[deonk1]

I give her a call every two months or so, I recommend her all the time, she is amazing. I'm trying to get a hold of her too, cause last year we brought her some fresh lobsters... lol I'm assuming she would like that again this year, heheh.

We treat our breeder quite well.

I stay in touch with Pixie and Roxie's breeder. We have become phone friends.

[jacquelinebabco]

I keep in touch with my breeders. I send pictures and emails all the time. I especially like the breeder I got Wyatt from.

[Reinell]

Now, I didn't get my dogs from what I call a proper breeder (I won't be doing that again, but circumstances made it so that we got our dogs from a Backyard breeder who was kind, careful, had some morals and standards but was likely in it mostly for the money) but I do send pictures and such as I think if I had adopted out a dog I would like to get updates. Without my permission she used one of the pictures I sent her as an update to a member of the same small-dog playgroup as a type of advertisement that I went back for another dog as I liked her dogs so much. Not sure how I feel about that. I got lucky, both dogs are healthy and happy and came well-socialized. Next time I am going with a registered breeder who selectively breeds and does complete testing for liver shunts, luxating patella etc.

[Breny]

One of the things I really cherish is all the wonderful new friends I have met by having my puppies join their family.
I would absolutely freak out if I was not kept updated, lol, as I form a very special bond with each of my babies. I look forward to seeing emails with pics from my babies. Its funny but each one has a totally different personality and I remember each one for something special he or she was special for while I raised them. I have lost contact with maybe 2 of my past pups and that really upsets me but I am happy for the ones that return my emails

[MI Yorkielover]

I keep in touch with and send photos to Sophie's breeder. I buy Sophie's grooming products from her and send Christmas photo greeting cards to her. She has always been very responsive and does a good job keeping in contact with us. She really cares about the quality of life her former puppies have and how they are growing up. She comments on every photo I send. We are thankful to her for our sweet little puppy

[Rachael1983]

I like to keep in touch with the breeder. I did with my cockers and I did so with Troy. Troy's breeder passed away a few months after we got him. I often times feel bad that we don't have a breeder to discuss Troy with. I did happen to find where Troy's father was rehomed and post on that breeder's guestbook every now and again.

[TatumsMom]

I know that I LOVE to hear from the new owners of our Aussie pups (who are a little over a year old now). They email us pictures and tell us how the dogs are doing with their trial (sheep and cattle) training. BUT I tried sending a Christmas card two years in a row to Tatum's breeder after getting her and never got any kind of response so I don't think she really cared much.
