Zealous Kennels

Posted March 20

Hi Bev

Since we spoke on March 2nd, I have been doing some deep thinking. I have to share this little story of mine – it involves Zealous JR’s and you of course.

Several years back, when you were still out East, I found your Web Site; drooled over the dogs, researched you and your breed lines, and then was totally stressed because the possibility of getting a puppy from you was so remote because of your location and my location. I have no problem with puppies being shipped via air, I know lots of puppies that have come from all over……..Alaska; New York; Germany……….however, just not MY PUPPY. So last year when I was getting pretty exasperated with what is “out there” I looked up your site again thinking that perhaps a driving trip to the Maritimes was long over due and to my delight, I discovered you had moved!!!! Now you were just a 15 hour drive away. Plus, you have continued to improve your lines and have so many puppies out there doing things. I have waited for almost two and half years, another few months is NOTHING – so I have been thinking long and hard, and I have been looking at Little Miss Muffet…..and the rest of your dogs, and your history and your ethics and everything. So, I am going to ask you to put me on your list for a puppy from her litter next autumn. You thought perhaps she would come in season late summer – puppies ready in November? Well, it will be worth waiting, I know the quality you put into your dogs will give me the sweet disposition and conformation I need for Agility and Obedience – plus your awareness as a Breeder assures me that you have done and will continue to do everything in your power to ensure the standard of the breed are maintained.

I would like to “seal” this with a deposit cheque if that is the route you go. I have no intention of missing out on a puppy from you again.

Thanks,
Lorraine

Hello Bev

I tough you will like to know than Jacky is wonderful with children. He like to play at the off leach park with other dogs. He have a very good temperament and he is very sociable. Especially when I compare him to some Jack/ Parson Russell we met at the park... I found Jacky is more calm and less aggressive. I also gave your website address to people who is asking where I buy him. He is like a little star at the off leach park because he is so sociable and happy to see everybody.

Have a wonderful day

Was just thinking about you. I have all of those cute pictures printed off in black and white from when Wilbur was little on the wall in my office, and so I am reminded of you a lot. Wilbur continues to be a sweet little boy, and he has become very rough coated. He is beginning his Novice/Competition class this week, having graduated from his Beginner, Fundamentals and Skills Building classes, and we are doing a competition seminar this weekend. He remains very focused and has progressed nicely. He is, of course, the favorite of all of the instructors and trainers. I think he knows how handsome he is, and it shows in everything he does. I promise to send pictures soon. Take care.

Hi Bev

In your last e-mail you said I could contact Cheryl Edwards about the male from the previous litter. I contacted Cheryl Edwards of the Bowery and thought you would be interested in her reply

“I have pick of that litter and without a doubt he will be my top show dog for this fall. He is an excellent mover, really intelligent and of course is gorgeous. He is my favorite and as you know I raise and show Parson, so I think that says a lot about the breeding, if you can get one from that breeding grab it real quick, especially if you want to show.

Thank you,
Tom

Dear Bev

Hope you enjoy the pictures of Bonnie. She is such a good tempered friendly, smart dog. We are so enjoying her as part of our family. She graduated from puppy kindergarten last week (she was elected class president). Warmly

Greetings from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. We are having a wonderful time with Murphy. Murphy is very loving, smart and funny. We had a trainer in the fall, Kim Murray, Murphy is so smart and Kim loved him.

Hello Bev

Thought I would drop you a line and let you know King is doing wonderful, he is a real

Sweetie. He is extremely loving and as well is super smart. He loves his baths to the point if he is in the bathroom when the kids are in the tub he jumps on in. He loves going in the car and is great with Amber (the baby). He was the perfect choice for us and we wanted to say Thank you.

The Kings.

Bev,

I am really enjoying the female I received from you. She is developing nicely so far. She has a beautiful disposition.

Thanks again,
Doug

Beautiful new site Bev!! Love it!!

Thank you SO much for all the help with my little girl... She's growing like a bad weed, and has an excellent disposition. I am VERY very pleased with her, and how she's been developing.

See you in the near future!

Hi Bev,

we are so pleased with our little boy. He is truly amazing. When I started researching the breed I was very cautious as to wither this was the breed for our family. Your knowledge and your support have been truly outstanding.
Our little boy has a wonderful temperament, is not at all hyper and is extremely easy to train. Raising your pups in a home environment really help form the temperament of your pups. It shows in their temperament the amount of love you put into your kennel. I would not hesitate to recommend your kennel and above all yourself to who ever is looking for a Parson. You are truly breeding for temperament.

Hi Bev
Our little girl is doing great. We are trying her in agility and she is catching on quickly. The teachers are very impressed with her. Her temperament is wonderful getting on with all other dogs and cats. She loves people. We are so glad we found you and your dogs. They are truly beautiful and amazing in temperament. We will be looking for an addition in the near future

Bev:

Your website is great. The pictures remind us of our own JR. Maddy is great. We enjoy her more and more each day. Even though she can easily out run us, overpower us, and not return the ball. She still loves to play. Thank you for allowing us to give her a home.

Hi Bev,

we got Abbey from you last July 2002. She is doing great, very friendly as you predicted and needs lot's of love and attention. She looks quite like Nala. She also loves our new cat we just got, they chase each other back and forth. Love your new puppies!! Merry Christmas!

Hi Bev,

Dear Bev

I want to congratulate you on breeding such beautiful dogs. They are lovely to look at and both have such beautiful natures. Sarah is such a sweet dog and Mogul is so manly with such a soft heart. Obviously we love them very much deriving great pleasure from them both. Well done they exhibit your concern and excellence.
Best Wishes

I have spent time looking for a jack russell pup and I have contact many breeders. I was impressed by your knowledge of the breed. The quality of your dogs show in the American Champions that you have. Keep up the good work and I will be in touch with you shortly.
