I have plenty of calendars but still seem to write the wrong date but a 'baby' I don't have....(and can't right at the moment)....nevertheless.......I remember the three large spoiled Newf mix lumps that used to hog the bed and scare off the rotten neighbors (hubbys family...LOL) and seeing this little cutie makes me want one all the more.

DLC,
Sundance is a very special guy. I never wanted to keep a puppy out of Cassidy's first litter but Linda and I were so impressed with him as a puppy, we couldn't put him in another home. He wasn't the prettiest nor was he the dominant one, but he had a calm confidence that really impressed us. Plus, he loved to be held -- which is actually unusual for Rottie pups.

Now, almost 2 years old, Sundance is right at the top of the standard at 27 inches tall and 140 lbs. and a head the size of a basketball (we had a basketball in for one of the calendar shots so I'm not exaggerating). And his desire to cuddle during the night is very unusual. He really likes to be held and he really likes to press himself against you. He'd be perfect for those Maine Winter nights!

As he matures, we continue to be impressed with him. He's still a butthead (our nickname for him) but he's a lovable butthead .

LOL..........funny you made the comment about winter in Maine........my very first thought when I saw Sundance was what a great Saturday afternoon couch buddy he would make when winter's storms pound against the windows. We could get matching flannel pj's!!!!!

I hope you post more of your babies, I honestly can't get enough.

Jim, Love the Card, But for X-mas can i just have Sundance instead of the card... jaguar needs a play mate...

Lisa,
As much as Mr. Sundance would love to go with you and Jag to the breeding farm, we'd really like him to stick around here and give cart rides to the neighborhood kids. Besides, he still has lots to learn from grandpa Rowdy.

Hugs to Jag. See you guys next week.

Jim

happy holidays sundance!!

Thank you, Liz. Sundance went to Miami with us this weekend to hawk his 2009 Calendar and we received 24 orders for Sundance calendars at the shows. That's really incredible considering we weren't pushing it at all. But the folks who saw the calendar and then met Sundance, really understood why we created it. He's just a very sweet, gorgeous boy.

I'll share more images from the calendar over the next few weeks since it's clear we're going to produce it in some decent quantities. 50% of sales profits will go to Rescue, either Rottie Rescue or any other Rescue group that chooses to sell the calendar. Given where the economy is these days and the fact that Rescue organizations are not getting donations, this will help in some small way.

Puppy kisses from Sundance to you.

Jim
