| Hi Sarah,
Just a quick note to say how happy we are to have Matilda, she is a lovely family dog, Paddy loves her to bits and she has shown no signs of aggression towards him. She lets him lie all over her and play with her ears. She is great. Thanks again, Maree Mitchell |
| Sarah Hi - I wish to advise that our beautiful Lexus as you called her was put to sleep on the .9.07.07.... the saddest day of my life - She had Cardiac Pulmonary failure - At the very end - One hour before she left us she barked at my partner David coming in the door, one hour before I cuddled her to sleep, She was still caring for me and this house being so ill
I miss her so badly. Every day! She never was in a boarding kennel one day of her life - and she didn't spendght in the cold ever she lived inside in her own bedroom and she meant more than any other human being on this planet I have her ashes - and memories and photos - will attach or two - you will be proud Sarah - are you breeding still? - What is the likehood of a pup - I want the Beautiful African girl that you breed You know I am a good carer of your babies I have just brought a 2.5 acre property - even more room than here.... quite rural and prepared to fly I pup over - You know I am a good owner and you surely can trust me with another.

| Hi Sara, I've been meaning to contact you earlier but my computer broke down and it took a while to get it hooked back up to the internet. Anyway, Rebbie is doing fine. She is so pretty (one of the prettiest dogs we've seen yet!) She just had her check-up at the Vet yesterday and she's 38 lbs. Thankyou so much for our two beautiful dogs . Ryno and Rebbie Thanks,Ronelle Hawaai |
| Hi Sarah, Just thought I would send you quick note to let you know that Tafaree is doing extremely well. Everybody ( all of my friends & family) loves him. He has become my shadow and comes visiting with me all the time. He loves the car. He knows tho! that he doesn't come in the mornings when I go to work but soon as I head for the car in the afternoon he is right there. He loves Nathan (my 17year old) Michelle. |
| Dear Sarah Just thought I would let you know that Humprhey B Bear has grown into a very big gorgeous boy. He goes to the beach twice a day and plays with his dog mates. He has his own black leather couch in the lounge and is very spoilt. Eats healthily and is 62.5kgs of muscle. We love him dearly and thank you so much for letting us have him. Hope all is well with you – often check your site to see what is happening. Kind Regards, Carlene Franzen |
| Hi Sarah,
You probably don't remember me, but I bought a beautiful dog from you a few years ago - Jake (21/11/04 - Umkimzulu Heartothwarior). I decided to look you up on the web today, so hope this email address is still current and gets to you! Jake is a loved member of our family, and he is brilliant with my children Alex (almost 3) and Isabella (7mths).. It's true what they say about not wanting any other dog breed once you have had a ridgeback! The reason for my email is to ask about getting another puppy at some stage? (we are now based in Beaudesert, QLD). We aren't in a hurry, just on the look out for a friend for Jake. I would love to hear from you. Sasha Oehm (nee Folley) |
| Hi Sarah,
My name is Janine Simpson and in 2002 when you lived in Perth I bought a beautiful girl off you called Umkimzulu Diamonds ‘N’ Gold. We named her Kiara and originally she was a birthday present for my son as I already had a much older ridgeback called “Tara” (she was from Sue Cartwright in Darlington whom you knew of at the time and had past away). Kiara soon became my dog as well and we did everything together, in fact the boys used to call her my shadow. Unfortunately recently she unexpectedly past away which has left us all totally devastated. Normally I’m a phone person and love talking but I decided to email you because it is just too hard to talk at this stage and I knew I wouldn’t be able to explain it all to you. Kia like Tara had a beautiful black nose and muzzle and were both big girls, no short legs here. . They are the only type of ridgeback I have had and I just can’t bring myself to look at any other type of dog. I know how popular your dogs are and I see that you breed liver nose ones as well now. Can you tell me if you will be breeding any more pups like this and if so when. Have looked at the website for dogs in WA but Kia was perfect so I’m happy to travel and collect the pup. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Kia had a wonderful life we live on 66 acres in Gidgegannup and she loved all that space, I know I spoilt her lots and my son always said “when I die I want to come back as Kia”. We love her heaps and it is so hard to lose your shadow after so long, I just hope you may be able to help us. Kind regards Janine Simpson and family |
