Throughout the year, and especially during the holidays, we get letters and pictures from the families that have adopted our Dakota Dalmatians. It is wonderful to see puppies playing with the children, older dogs being loved by their owners and to know that all of them are in such great homes. We'd like to share some of these "success stories" with you and hope you enjoy seeing these pictures as much as we did.

Here are some of the Kate X Sawyer pups with their new families:

Licorice is with a wonderful family which includes a 6 month old human "brother" and a ten year old Dalmatian "brother."

Riley is happy with her new family She goes to work
most days with her human "Dad" and shares time with three other dogs.

Here's Ch. Dottie celebrating the holidays with Daniel in her new home!
Ch. Dakota's Hot Mocha Dot  finished her championship in July, 2004.
While she was a wonderful show dog, we know she couldn't be happier than in her "retirement" home.

Calla, (Ch. Dakota's Secret Garden), a Zoe Daughter is settled in a new home. Lovely Calla has lived with the Bethards in Arkansas since she was very young, but now she is enjoying being the only dog with a wonderful new  family. It is a great match and Calla has impressed them with her perfect manners and sweet disposition.

Meet little "Chase" who is one of the Laser X Ziggy kids and a brother to our "George." This liver boy was one of our favorites with his sweet, happy personality. He's now settled in with his new family and is doing very well.

Both Ch. Rumor and Ch. Britain are very happy together in their new home in Chicago. We are glad they are close enough that we are able to see them.
