Just had to tell you that your grown up puppies website is awesome!! The slide show is fantastic. I'm loving it and enjoy reading what the other owners have said about their puppies. Chinook has a way of capturing your heart & is so very special. She's not going to be anywhere close to the size of her brother but her quickness & agility are by far superior.

Hard to believe it's been a whole year! We had a mini celebration singing "Happy Birthday" and then following up with "For he's (she's) a jolly good woofer".. Over the top we are!! They still respond to singing & if I really want their attention they also still remember the "puppy puppy puppy" that you first called them by.

There is a cute pic of Chinook at 1 year & Nanuq as well. They continue to be the cutest woofers we know & definately take after their Mom as Comfort Queen & King. Why sleep on the floor when there's a couch or bed nearby.

We feel so fortunate to have two. They are so close to each other we seldom separate them anymore. Chinook will always be Sean's puppy and she adores Sean but she so loves being with her pack. She more than Nanuq needs & demands lots of love & attention. We often wake up to find her on a pillow next to us. She's just like her Mom when it comes to laying on a bed with a pillow. They're both the happiest of puppies & have made this past year amazing...my how time flys.

Thought you'd be interested in knowing that Chinook weighed in at 92 lbs today. Mike, Sean & I took her in for her check up....hoping that with us all there she'd be less apt to be afraid. Pleased to say she did just fine - at least after the 2 large dogs in front of her left the office. The vet thought she was in great health but in his words thought she had some upholstery going on...he's a kick & wasn't concerned but thought the light diet would be good for her as well as Nanuq. We tend to agree with you however, and aren't worried about their weight. They are just big dogs. Chinook & Nanuq spend alot of time playing. I can't imagine only having one...we're so lucky. Hope your plans to visit puppies does someday happen. It would be great fun to see you. I still sometimes call them with your "puppy puppy puppy"...I think they would remember you. As I'm writing this email all 3 are resting right next to me. I think the shots Chinook had today have made her sleepy. We'll skip her walk today.

Can't remember if I emailed you since Chinook's check up. She's 92 lbs and doing just great. This poor vet thought she had some "upholstery" going on too but nothing as much as her brothers. She looks perfect to us. Nikki just went in for a check up as well and is suprisingly 88 lbs...we thought she was lighter. Chinook adores Nikki and just wants to give her kisses & lay at her feet. Such hero worship confuses Nikki but she usually tolerates it well. Chinook & Nanuq however have a special bond. Chinook was so happy to see him after we came home from the lake. It was a quick glance to say hi to me & then off to romp with her brother. Nanuq starts obedience training this week. We went to the first class class (minus pups) last week to learn all the details. We'll keep you posted of his progress. Sean will take Chinook to the next class as we wanted them to go separately this time. They distract each other when they're together.

Thought we'd send you a couple recent pics of the pack. (hope they go through ok) One is typical greeting we get when either of us come home & the other is both sitting in their favorite spot. Just wondering if Beckley sings??? Chinook & Nanuq both are very quiet (which is good in our neighborhood)....but I sometimes wish I could hear them sing. When I play them their wolf cd they are very much interested in the singing. They will bark if very excited about something - especially Chinook, but never in an annoying way. We can tell Nanuq is maturing. He is very much the alpha male & is quite regal. Chinook is the little Mother & is frequently licking us, her brother or Niks. Both are very unique - can you tell how much we love em....

Wish we had a picture of your pack with the Rainbow vac...Nanuq doesn't mind the vacuum but Chinook is a little more cautious. Just had to say we're sorry to hear that there won't be any more little Comfort Queens & Kings but so grateful we have ours. Let us know how Timbuk2 does. Oh yes, had to tell you one of our neighbors has become quite smitten with Chinook & even hinted he'd like to have her....Ha ha ha...not a chance. Chinook & Nanuq are so attached to each other there is no separating them (not to mention we wouldn't think of it)...Poor Sean has to come visit his little Comfort Queen now. She is just too too precious. Each morning she jumps up on the bed about 4am & snuggles in between us...Some people might think we've really gone crazy..ha ha!

Do you still have the grown up puppies page up? We must have misplaced the address when we changed computers. It was always fun to see pics of the other puppies. We'd love to have a professional picture of our two with Nikki but it would be quite the challenge to get them all together & settled down long enough for a picture. Nanuq is the easiest to take pictures of. He has absolutely the most easy going personality of all. Chinook remains the little love bug & is in constant motion. She's up first in the morning & always ready to play. She demands attention by nudging you with her nose or paws. She's the one that would have the most problem with being alone. It's fortunate Sean's close by and doesn't mind his puppy living with us. He's over often & they have quite the bond but she is happier with her little pack. He took a couple pics of his Chinook when he was over that I'm attaching for you - they're not the best because she didn't want to sit for a picture but wanted to play with her Sean.
