This photo collage is something I cherish. It is what I see when our Puppy Families come back again and again. The children, who were toddlers, are growing up. It is my joy to watch them grow, to see the changes in your lives, to know the dogs that are a vital part of the fabric of your lives.

This is their FOURTH Candle Hill Shepherd! Scroll through the pictures below and see each Puppy Bring Home Day of this with the children at different years of their lives. This dear family which adopted their first Candle Hill Shepherd Puppy in 2017, Bea.

then another in 2019, Theo.

yet one more in 2023, Gridley.

and now at last their fourth in 2026, Oso.

Many of you are now on your fourth Candle Hill Shepherds, but few of you still have your first, second, and third living when you bring home number four.

Of course we do, and that's how we roll--it makes perfect sense to us. The dogs enjoy a pack and we get to enjoy a dog for each member of the family.

Here is Oso going home to be Dad's dog, and before him, Gridley, and before Gridley, Theo, and before Theo, Bea.

Thank you Mike and Kara, for being the wonderful people you are and for letting us share in your beautiful family.
