Bentley

Bentley

  Bentley is doing great. He is now 4 1/2 months old and we will neuter him around the first of the year. I did propose to Susan that she could use him for breeding if she liked. His tempermant is so wonderful and he is a beautiful animal. More specifically, the vet said his teeth are great!   Hope you had a nice Christmas. Santa was good to us. Bentley is doing fabulous and was just neutered this week....

Brady

Brady

  I am finally getting in touch with you…time flies these days!  So we adopted Frosty and did change his name to Brady. He is right at home and pretty much in a routine now.  Definitely lots of energy but one of my other dogs is as well…and he is very funny..easily amuses himself running laps around the house.  Today was the first day I walked the 3 of them by myself and it was like walking a Shetland and a thoroughbred….lol  I...

Buster Conway

Buster Conway

Thanks for the certificate.  I am happy to report that Buster is doing GREAT.  We were able to get his new brother, Bear, within two months of Buster’s arrival and they have become a strong team.  Buster is an extremely sweet little guy.  Bear is a smooth coat collie bred at Conway Arabians (my husband’s brother) and Bear’s father, Noble, was best in class at Westminster a few years ago.  So far, the doggies don’t even care about each other’s breeding backgrounds! ...

Kathy, Dan and their three IrishJacks

  Dear IrishJacks: We just want to take this time to tell you how our IrishJacks, Sonny, Gidian, and Skye have changed our lives.  We absolutely could not imagine life without them. We got Sonny from Susan in March, 2010.  Sonny is EXTREMELY bright and intelligent, as well as beautiful.  He is cheeky, funny, affectionate, and he KNOWS that he is the ruler out of the three.  He watches over his sisters, Gidian and Skye, always showing us that he...

Rob and Ron & Emma

Everyone is madly in love with our Lady Emma. She has started attending “Doggie Playtime” each Tuesday to get her acclimated to other pups. Unfortunately the other dogs in the playgroup are mostly larger breeds. A few Goldens, a Doberman, a collie, several Greyhounds… Emma starts out all playful and quickly becomes overwhelmed by the largeness of her new pals!! Thanks again, we just love her.

Vivian and Gizmo

Hi Susan! Do I sound like a worried doggie-mom or what! Thanks for the info. Our “little fuzzy man” is doing great! He is totally “potty trained” in the house (litter box) as well as outside. I needed to train him inside as well because of my husbands disability, if I am not home he can not walk him for me. It worked out great. I can’t believe how smart he is! He is teething like crazy so we desperately...

Susan, Tyson and Stella are getting along I just famously! Tyson [on the left] thinks of Stella as his personal chew toy. Stella sure gives him her share of chewing. We take Tyson swimming everyday. He loves it! We get him out on a large blue floating thing and throw a Frisbee over his head. He jumps for the Frisbee catching it often. We have been putting Stella up there on the floating thing while Tyson jumps over her running...

Kerry & Dublyn

Hi Susan, I just wanted to write to tell you how much we love little Dublyn! She’s made quite a difference in our lives. There are adjustments, but LOTS of joy, too! She makes us smile & laugh with her antics and expressions. On Tuesday, I was raking leaves in the backyard and she really enjoyed running through or burrowing in the piles of leaves, as you will see on one of the photos I’ve attached. When I would laugh,...

Hi to all at Violet Meadow Farm, I hope you are well. We are just LOVING Millie to bits. She is such a sweetheart and really so smart and well-behaved. She is well on her way to becoming housebroken, even though we were just getting our routine down when the blizzard hit! Who tries to housebreak a puppy in the middle of a blizzard!?! Just now, as I was sitting here writing this, she went to the door and whined...

Steve & Bo

Steve & Bo

Hi guys!!, Bo arrived safe and sound. He settled into his new home rather quickly. Our two sons stayed up nearly an hour past their bedtimes to play with Bo and help make him feel right at home. It’s 11pm now and he’s still going strong. He’s everything we hoped for and more. Thank you so much. We are all ecstatic about our new addition to the family. We’ll send some photos to you soon - Steve

Letter home to Mom from Opal

Letter home to Mom from Opal

Letter home to Mom, The humans typed this for me as I can’t quite read and write yet…. Mom, Life is great living with Donner, Tonya and Ruby. The ride home was a long one and I was very good. Donner stopped about every hour or two so that I could romp and play and do my potty things. On one stop we even got Pizza. I sure seemed to be popular as lots of people greeted me where ever...

Hi Susan, I just wanted to tell you again – thanks for sending me Susie (aka Taran). She is THE most wonderful puppy I have ever seen. The handler at the airport just kept saying – “now I LIKE THAT dog!”. It was like he couldn’t believe how cute she was – and neither could I! As I was walking out with her wrapped in a big bath towel, everyone was oooo’ing and aaaahhhh’ing. She has such a wonderful personality....

Andy & Beth in Rhode Island

Susan, Beth and I picked up Monty (a.k.a. “Tiger”) from you 16 months ago and the love affair continues! Our big concern when we were adopting him was how he would react to having a baby brother or sister. Susan said the shorties are great with kids and he was right. Our daughter Lily was born 11/29/02 and Monty just loves his new sister, is very gentle and can’t kiss her enough! While we have our hands full right now,...

I had the occasion to visit a “mall” pet store over the weekend and it compelled me to offer a letter of reference to Violet Meadow Farm. I found the experience at the mall quite upsetting, and I couldn’t wait to get back home to my Jack, Mo that I adopted from you. I’ve come to expect pretty high standards of things in my dealing with things at work and in life in general. My experience with you and your...

Dear Susan, Well the pup made it just fine to SF airport. We had no trouble finding her. She is doing just fine. We all lover her very much and found an excellent Vet for her care. Her last set of shots are scheduled in two weeks, and we all are outside and enjoying this California weather!! I am very impressed how responsive she is to our family ie. the baby. She is allowed lots of time with her and...

We are well. I am sending several photos Roley is absolutely great. He keeps us laughing all the time. Maggae is quite a little priss and Roley just jumps into everything. He’ll be running through the house with socks or yanking my plants out of the pots on the ground. Keeps us going. We enjoy him very very much! When he tires, he is a cuddly little fellow. I enjoy that, too. Enjoy the pics! August 16th we take both...

Pam Luttrell Testimonial

Hello from Omaha! I’m sorry you were so torn about sending him away. It must be bitter-sweet sometimes in your breeding profession. I hope it’ll make you feel a little better that in less than 12 hours he’s very much won the hearts of my family and myself (and my vet. who says he’s in wonderful shape and loves the way he looks —and my neighbor who owns a Parson’s! She also wants to know if Riley could possibly talk...

Dear Susan, Greetings from Rosie!! I love her so much. She’s the Queen of us all! I wanted to jokingly email you “I didn’t know she had a freckle on her nose. I want a refund!” My life and household has changed for the better because she is here. Thank you both again, and again. She’s my dream dog. Hope all is well. I still like going to your website. Fondly, Jenette

Dear Susan, Just wanted to let you know how truly happy Jenna & I are with Lucy (formally Princess)!! She is the Greatest little russell. We could not have asked for anything more in a puppy!!! We are living in DC across from a “Dog Park”, a park that has turned into a dog walking park due to the large amount of dogs in the neighborhood, needless to say Lucy is the talk of the town!! She has captured everyone’s...

David DeGiralamo and Dan Allen Testimonial


Susan, We have not spoken since that beautiful day in June of last year, when we fell in love with Barley (aka “Freckles”) at your farm and took him with us. Today, May 25th, is his birthday, and the occasion compelled me to write to you, his first human US mommy. To say that Barley is doing well in his New York City home would be an understatement. Quite simply, he is the undisputed Mayor of Midtown. Our first few...

Katherine and Chris Stamp Banjo and Bongo(the cat) Testimonial

Hi Susan, Banjo is doing great! He is getting along very well with the cat now. Sometimes I catch them on the couch together. The cat even lets him lick his ears! Two weeks ago I took Banjo to his first schooling horse show. He loved it and thinks horses are big dogs. I will send you photos soon. Unfortunately I didn’t have my digital camera. I got a picture of Banjo sitting on my friends horse Boston. He stood...

I got an Irish Jack from Susan earlier this summer and can attest that the pup has changed our house. We have 4 other dogs at home, but Jacko´s arrival in May changed everything. He is so energetic and friendly that he is already famous where we live after only 3 months. It’s true that Jacko loves our shoes, but his energy make life a lot more fun. The pup is strong and healthy after his trip to us. I...

I just wanted to send you a quick note to tell you about Susan and her Jack Russell puppies. I was looking for the right dog for a long time and I did extensive research about the type of dog I wanted and the type of place I wanted to get my dog from. It is crucial to the health and well being of the puppy you adopt as well as the humane treatment of all animals that your dog...

My fiancé and I have had an outstanding experience with Susan. We got our dog George from them last October and I have to tell you that he has changed my life. George goes everywhere with us and we only go where he can go. I don’t see this as a limitation, as we could leave him at home, but as a choice to spend as much time with him as possible. George is truly a member of our family....

Dear Susan, I am writing just to let you know how happy we are with our new puppy “Jody”. I don’t know where to begin, but since the day I popped in on Mick until today,it has been such a pleasant and rewarding experience to have this little girl in our lives. I wish I hadn’t waited as long as I did. She is absolutely beautiful and positively adorable. She comes everywhere with us (like my pocketbook!) and everyone wants...

Hello! Here is a picture of Scout just being his adorable self. I brought him to the vet on friday and he couldn’t get over what a calm puppy he was. He said he was in perfect health! I’ve been reading a lot of jack russell books and they seem to agree that two jacks are better than one! I’ve brought Scout to play with my friends six month old puppy a couple times and I can’t help thinking that...

Kerry & Mike, Kally, Maddy and Bailee (the horse) Testimonial

Good Morning Susan, Finally I could get to my laptop to write. Madigan (aka “Maddy” aka “Bratty Maddy”)(Rebecca’s new name) is doing great. We just love her! She went to the vet last week and any everything looks wonderful. The vet was very impressed with how healthy Maddy is (no ear mites, nails trimmed, no fleas). In fact, she was a huge hit at the vets. Especially after we were the lobby along with a huge lab who was checking...
