    Yes, absolutely great dogs. My Sugar was every bit a lady. When we travel and go out to eat, she sits under the table by my feet and never asks for or take food I offer her. She eats only when we get back to our room. I miss her terribly!!

    They are simply the cutest dogs ever. When my husband and I had to leave our 11 year old cocker at the vet for a week (for boarding) we had to run out of there and barely made it to the car before we both started sobbing. They were so sweet – they sent us pictures of her in the play yard every day.
