Dear Carol,
I just wanted to let you know how Apache (formally Mickey) is doing and  send
a couple of pictures.He is GREAT with children and people. I am so lucky to 
have him. I could not have picked a more perfect companion and he truly is  a
therapy pup. You and God knew what you were doing when you brought Apache that
day I came to adopted a puppy. He was at that gate because God had him there
and  you didn't pick him up just because he was at the gate, you had a
feeling that  he was special and could help me through my pain & that he did and
still to  this day when I think of my babies Apache is there to kiss my tears
away. He  tugged at my heart when I first saw him and he still does. When I
called  you for weeks on end crying because Cherokee was so sick you listened to my
heart break & every tear that fell and not once did you tell me you had  to
hurry and go, you helped me through the roughest time of my life after 
loosing my collie of 16 years then again you were there to help me when I lost 
Cherokee of 17 years. You truly are Gods Angel not only for the Cocker Spaniels 
but for us that lose our  beloved furry family.
He still loves to play ball and frisbee, he will go after his ball or 
frisbee and bring it back to me and praises he loves. Spoiled he is but he  spoils
us with a lot of love and kisses and staying by my side where ever I  am.
Apache is as smart as a whip and stays in our yard except when little Abby  is out
side he just loves her and Josh(her dad) Apache loves to go after  Josh's golf
ball there the magic is balls does he love to chase the ball  and bring it
back to me. Everyone loves Apache that meets him. He's full of  spunk he will
take off and run outside then turn around to see if I am still  close by if he
doesn't see me he comes running back. He is wonderful in the car  he watches
everything and sits so good, if it is at night he wants to have his  paw on me
while we are in the car. Apache is a comedian in his own right he  makes me
laugh when I am down and he has brought so much love into our hearts  and home.
He still hates the bath though.
I can't thank-you enough for taking such good care of Apache until he 
adopted Gene and me.You are God's and the Cocker Spaniel's Angel. These Spaniels 
are so lucky to have you care for them and we people are so lucky that you do. 
Your Love for the very beautiful dogs shows in everything that you do for 
them.
I wish you could come and see him how beautiful he is and how much we love 
him. You are welcome any time.

Kathy
