Nash and Starr

Just have to share an update from Nash (Molly/Jack - w/o on the right) and Starr's (Wish/Rylee - tricolor on the right) mom... it's so nice! We are blessed with the friendships of those who own our Brittanys and share their lives and their hearts with them. Thanks Steph... this email was too sweet to keep to myself... - Ann

"Good morning ladies, Thanks so much for the compliments and the well wishes for Nash & Starr, they are two peas in a pod, Steve and I feel so blessed to be able to have two Brittany's in our home, Nash is a very handsome and serious boy with a sweet disposition and a huge heart, Starr is a mischievous little lady whose always on the move, loves to be cuddled, stroked and talked to, I call her "Boogaloo" because she's always "boogying" around the house.....

Starr will be headed to "Bird School" in Rangeley Maine for a few weeks this summer to be trained and Nash will be bummed out. It will be hard getting him to adjust, they've never really been separated, but when they have been, he won't eat, he looks all over the house for her, he sighs like a love sick man, lays around the house and most times can be found sitting atop the couch so he can look out the picture window waiting for his Starr to come home. Once Starr is done with her training, Mr. Nash will go for a "refresher" and then by the time bird season comes Steve, Starr & Nash will be out having the time of their lives!

I'm so excited to hear about Wish's litter, Ann can attest to the fact that the first time Steve and I met with Ann, John and ATB I was immediately drawn to Wish, she gave me great comfort that day, something in her eyes understood exactly how I was mourning the loss of our first Brittany, Spooky, and from that day forward I knew that if and when Wish had a litter, we'd get a very special little puppy, Star was and is that puppy and she was worth the wait.

Nash on the other hand is a perfect combination of his mother Molly-Rose and his father Jack-Dog. Physically, Nash is Jack, he's solid, all muscle, sometimes (ok all the time) doesn't realize his strength, is serious and handsome, I just call him "seriously handsome!" but then the Molly-Rose traits come out, like the way he loves to share the couch with me at night so I can rub his belly, the way he pulls the covers over us when we all pig pile into bed, just more of the sensitive, sweet things he does, it's just remarkable to be a part of their lives.

We had a houseful over for Father's Day and everyone couldn't get over how happy, content and well adjusted they are.

So congratulations Lilli on the upcoming new addition of an ATB Pup, what a blessing that is!

Tammy, have a wonderful vacation!

Ann, please give John, and all the Brits our love (give a little extra to Wish) Steve and I would love to be able to schedule a visit when the time is right, we miss you guys!

Have a great day!

Love & friendship,
Stephanie
