Gracie/CH PC Dakota Pines 1's 2011 Litter                                                                                                                                                                    

All Gracie's puppies have gone to their new homes. I'd like to thank all of our adopting families for giving the pups the best of homes. It means so much to me to know that the puppies will be well taken care of and loved.

A special thanks to Bonnie & Mike who fell in love with Gracie the second they saw her. Gracie will live out her best years with them. Mike has been working with Gracie on field commands and the report is she's doing very well. We are fortunate that Mike & Bonnie live fairly close to Whispering Pines. We have a grouse hunt planned for this fall. It is very important to me to be able to visit Gracie & Abby.  Thank you again so much to all of you.

Please keep in touch & send pictures as your puppies develop into adult Springer's. Don't forget that if your ever in the area, the coffee is always on. I love nothing better than to visit & see those gorgeous puppies again. 

Abby & Gracie XMas 2011

Don't they both look just thrilled????

Gracie is now retired and living out the rest of her days in her glory. She loves to hunt and Mike & Bonnie are the perfect family for her. Gracie is just like a little bull in the field and Mike agrees. They had the opportunity to hunt at the Game Farm in Little Falls, MN and Grace flushed and retrieved many birds, Mike & Gracie have become best of buddies and Gracie will do anything for Mike.

Thanks Mike & Bonnie for giving Gracie & Abby the perfect home.

Congratulations to Gracie & Mike for completing the Novice Obedience class March 1st 2012. Gracie will be going for her AKC Canine Good Citizens title on March 8th. Good luck Mike & Gracie.

Way to go Mike & Gracie.

Gracie has now earned her official AKC Canine Good Citizens Title (C.G.C)

Mike & Gracie have worked very hard to achieve this title. All their hard work has paid off. Besides training his dogs, Mike enjoys hunting with Gracie and the two of them have shared some awesome moments in the field this last Fall. You seldom find the two of them apart. Mike also has the passion for wood working, carving, painting & golf. I have advised him to teach Gracie to drive the golf cart, but that's not working out so well. Maybe she could retrieve the golf balls that might end up in water! Ya

Thank you again Mike & Bonnie for all the love & dedication you have given to Gracie & Abby.
