Stover recalled a time when the mother dog had to be rushed to a veterinarian when a pregnancy went wrong. After an emergency Caesarean section, the dog recovered, but Stover was left with five puppies to feed every two hours around the clock. To avoid the problems associated with poor breeding, Stover offers advice to those looking for a good dog. have to find someone who knows what she said. have to keep the line pure.

Look at the paperwork that comes with the puppy. Ask questions. Why are they breeding puppies? Contact the veterinarian they use. That person can be a great help as you learn more about the Stover has learned much about raising golden retrievers from her day-to-day experiences. From developing a sales contract to brushing and grooming the dogs, Stover continues to learn about the breed of dog she has grown to love.

Over the years, Stover estimates, five dogs have been returned to her. Turning a great puppy into an even greater adult dog takes time and energy, Stover said.

Although they were very proper young dolls, they also relished fishing in Canada with us annually, in addition to enjoying the beach, church and occasional school functions. I remember one tiring day of travel when Samantha caused quite a ruckus in the Winnipeg airport.

Samantha, who is 18 inches tall, began to feel rather heavy for our 6-year-old Chloe to carry carefully in her arms while also toting her small rolling suitcase. So Chloe nearly dropped her beloved doll and began dragging Samantha by one ankle. Unfortunately, another weary airline traveler ran over to aid our dear Samantha because he thought she was a real child bring mistreated by her sister. I am sorry to say goodbye to new Samantha dolls, but I welcome 2009 with all her changes. Janet Hommel Mangas, the third of seven children, grew up on the east side of Greenwood.
