New Members of the MagicWood Family

Meeting people on line and talking on the phone to place puppies can be a risky business.  Selecting just the right people to own your beloved puppies requires a level of trust that they are what they are telling you.  Some of our puppy buyers this time were able to come and visit us in person either before or during the time the puppies were growing up with us.  A few were people I met through the Otterhound club and one even corresponded with me for over 3 years as we waited for another breeding to take place.  When people began to arrive here in Door County, I felt I was greeting old friends and was so excited for the puppies to begin their new lives.  Puppies were ready for their new relationships to begin--moving away from us as breeders and away from their littermates--ready to become companion animals, each with a very special family.  I look forward to continuing relationships with these families and watching from a distance as these puppies grow up.  I couldn't be happier that these 12 families contacted me about bringing home an Otterhound puppy.

One puppy left to go home soon.  Harrison will be with us until the weekend (2/23)  when he will go home to Iowa to become "Dylan" living with Trish and Sam.
Many thanks to all the great folks that are now part of our "extended" Otterhound family!

Becky,
You and Bruce exceeded my expectations with this "Magic" litter. The fantastic effort that it took to save even the weakest of the bunch and integrate each one into loving and socialized puppies speaks to the dedication and exhaustion of the days before they were ready to leave with their forever families. I hope to make you proud of Gabel as he grows up, and maintains the high regard MagicWood Otterhounds has in our OH community. And, thank you both for entrusting me with the most loving, sweetest and smartest boy (yes, I'm prejudiced) I could ever have hoped for.

Thank you, Marilyn for your kind words. I'll be happy watching Gabel grow in your very capable hands. Loved seeing how well he has been accepted by his "brother" and housemate, Barley.

Well said Marilyn, each and every day I am truly amazed at the love these puppies were giving in their first 8 weeks of life. Both Becky and Bruce did an amazing job!!! I'd have to say Lincoln is the most loving, sweetest, and smartest(although stubborn) puppies I have ever met or had!!! :)
