About our "Rufus".... He's a total joy and
wonder! We love him to pieces, and he is deservedly spoiled rotten! He is now
over 80 pounds at just 11 months old.
We could not have asked for a better friend. Everyone comments on how beautiful
he is and what a wonderful temperament he has. Even our vet continues to comment
on his good nature, beautiful color, and excellent breeding.
Actually, Rufus is somewhat of a celebrity around our neighborhood…every time we
take him on a walk, all the neighborhood kids come running after us to pet him
and rub his belly--or our neighbors want to let their dogs out so they can play
with our Rufus. He definitely loves all people and other dogs!
Rufus has a magnificent character. By nature he is snuggly, lovable, and
playful; however, he can also be protective when you need him to be. He's
brought joy, laughter, astonishment and pride to our household. We cannot
imagine life without him. He's a wonderful, spirited dog with an intelligent
mind, strong body, and gentle soul. We are proud to call him "ours."
For anyone interested in an American Bulldog, you can’t find a better breed of
American Bulldogs than Laura Kennels. From our very first contact with Laura
Kennels, we were sold on their professionalism and love for the breed. Lynn took
the time to get to know us and find out exactly the type of dog we were looking
for. She wanted to make sure we received a pup that would fit our lifestyle.
When we arrived at Laura Kennels in November of 2001 to pick out our pup from
Josh/Possum’s litter, Lynn greeted us with a great big hug and smile. She
introduced us to the family, gave us a tour of the kennel and other dogs, and
then showed us the pups. She explained a little bit about each one and then sat
back and allowed us time to play with the pups to decide which one we wanted.
While she already knew exactly which pup she wanted us to have (based on our
earlier conversations, preferences, lifestyle, etc.), she wanted to see if we
would come to the same decision on our own. Sure enough, we all had decided on
Rufus!
Thankfully, our relationship with Laura Kennels did not end at the purchase of
Rufus. As issues come up in raising him, Lynn has been wonderful, answering all
our questions promptly and offering her support.
We are enclosing a picture of Rufus taken at a few weeks old (still at Laura
Kennels), and 3 photos of Rufus at 10 months (70+ lbs.). Please feel free to
contact us or use us as a referral at any time.
Sincerely,
