9.5 years ago, I got my beloved Dakota from your place.  It was February 2009.  I had lost my Rottweiler 7 months earlier and I saw Dakota on your website and fell in love.  My sister, her beagle Jake, and I came out one Monday evening and then were able to bring her home the following week.

I don't know if you will remember but she came from Peterborough with five pups.  The pups were gone by the time I found her - she was 2.5 or 3.5 at that time.  She was a difficult first 1.5 years as we worked out who was the boss but she turned into the best dog:  such a lover, such an athlete in her early days (she would routinely jump off the verandah at my parents' cottage - almost one full storey!!!!)  She was crazy and speedy and feared nothing.  She's a retired athlete now.

I love her beyond words.
