Hi Carrie,

I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much we love our Hillview girls. Asha and Lexi are best friends. When Asha turned two we knew we were ready for a second puppy and there was no doubt where we were going to get our next puppy. When we seen Beika was having another litter we knew we wanted another one of her puppies.

Again, you picked the perfect puppy for us. Lexi is such a little snuggler. Both of our Hillview girls have the perfect balance of home protection and family pet. Dave always says our alarm system on the house is just a backup to the dogs because they will let you know if anyone is even close to the house long before the alarm goes off. They warm up quickly to guest always trying to give them a ball to throw.

When we were talking to friends about being ready for another puppy we were urged not to get another female because two females will not get a long. I'm glad we went with our gut instinct and went with another female. They are so loving to each other and play well together.

Our daughter was nervous about the dogs with our young grandsons because of their size and presence but they are great with the kids. Kyler our 2 1/2 year old grandson can't get enough of the dogs. He can be rough with them and they just want more. On one occasion Kyler went up to Asha and grabbed her on both sides of her face to give her a kiss and Asha kissed all over him. Our daughter was surprised with how Asha reacted asking why do your dogs take that from the boys when Sugar (her Maltese) growls at them. I said when the girls were little we planned on having grandchildren and worked with the dogs when eating, pulled their tails and did things to them we thought a child may do. They love children.

I know you've heard this many times but Asha and Lexi are the perfect dogs for our family.
