Dear Julie and Staff:

I wanted to write you a little thank you note for being there for "Molly" through the five years that we have used your services. I am so grateful to the wise people who pointed me in your direction when I first got "Molly" as a pup. The Puppy Kindergarten was just what I needed to deal with a new creature in our family. I had never had a dog before, so it was all new to me. Your staff provided comprehensive answers to all my questions and I felt really supported in this new venture and that you all were truly interested not only in "Molly’s" progress, but how I was doing, too.

With the obedience classes, "Molly" and I got to know each other better. Even though "Molly" has the proverbial terrier temperament, we found ways to make things work out for both of us. Grooming her regularly, trimming toenails, brushing teeth and her general care has given us both an opportunity to bond. I wouldn't have anyone else do this now, because it has become such a normal pat of our routine and she seems to look forward even to the occasional bath. Of course, with her, treats help a lot!

I think since your services are based on a philosophy of a well-trained dog is a better dog, I think you provide a higher quality of care and attention than most "doggy daycare" facilities. "Molly" has been to another facility (not in Colorado) where she was allowed to do practically anything she wanted. This showed in her behavior when I brought her home at the end of the day. It involved a small bit of reminding on my part. Not something I have even had to do with her visits to your facility.

Thank you for your dedication, care, interest and fortitude. I feel like we have gone through a lot together and I appreciate all that you and your staff have done for me and "Molly". All the day care facilities we use in the future will be compared to your standard. If we return to Fort Collins, you can be sure we will come for a visit. Thank you again for a great five years!

Sincerely,

Judith and "Molly"
