Happy Updates

Since we have a lot of dog-loving people who read this blog, that have purchased their tail-wagging friend through Willowbrook, we thought we’d dedicate this space to “happy updates” on your pup.

Please email us your current photos of your beloved dog and an update on how your furry friend is doing. We’d love to hear from you! Enjoy the updates!

Here’s another updated photo of Java, our spunky Maltipoo who just celebrated her 2nd birthday on December 21st. We love her so much! Thank you, Willowbrook!” – January 2024 – Deborah Gascho, photographer for Willowbrook Kennel.

Check out these cuties:

“Hello, this is Mimi (a Malshi, born on May 12, 2019) and BonBon (a Peekapoo, born on March 31, 2016).  They are both very happy and healthy girls with very opposite personalities! Mimi loves playing with her toys and can play fetch ball all day long in our backyard (rain or shine). BonBon is content with being in pure relaxation mode and absolutely loves food and treats, she happily performs all her tricks for it!

But what both girls share is their pure excitement and joy to go on any outdoor adventures with their family – whether its the beach, hiking trails, parks or even short car rides to the store.

They are very important members of the family and every day we are so thankful to have them in our lives.  Adopting them was the best decision we ever made, life would be unimaginable without them.  We look forward to many more years of adventures, love, and happiness.  

Regards, the H Family

This cutie is a Maltipoo girl named Java! I am the photographer for Willowbrook (most-adorable-subjects-ever) and after a decade of taking photos of their adorable, wiggly pups, Java came home with me (first photo) when she was just three and half pounds at eleven weeks of age. She has quickly made her way into our hearts and this adorable gal is now a year and a half, eight pounds and two ounces, to be exact, (second photo) and is a firecracker that has brought so much fun and life into the home! She has the softest coat of fur and is so very much loved!” – The Gascho Family update on 06/20/2023.

“Mia the Maltipoo was born on April 27, 2019 and just celebrated her third birthday. She is the sweetest girl, we couldn’t have asked for a more snuggly and loveable pooch. She never leaves our side and loves playing with her toys – that she knows all by name! She brings an immense amount of happiness and joy to our family!

Hi Annie , this is Buddy he was born December 9th 2019. He has such a loving personality. We love him so much. He loves jumping really high and loves to play. We picked him up the end of February 2020. We are so happy with our little Buddy . Thank you again. The Antinolfi Family

It has now been 3 months since we brought home our bundle of Maltipoo joy who we named Oliver. He  has more than tripled his weight since we got him and he is the happiest little guy ever.  Although everyone says it about their puppy, Oliver is actually the smartest and easiest to train puppy ever.  He is happy to cuddle with us or to spend his days learning new tricks. Although we were a little nervous about getting a puppy in the winter months, we are so happy we did because now that the warmer weather is upon us we have a well trained puppy to share the summer with and can’t wait to take him to the beach! Take care, the Sterling Family!

“Dear Annie, we just wanted to give you a quick update on our little maltipoo named Finley.  We picked him up on January 22, 2022, and he is the perfect addition to our family.  A beautiful, light-brown color with white spots on his forehead, tummy, paws and tail.  He is very cuddly and we could not be any happier.  He brings joy to everyone he meets and we love him so much. Thank you! McCloskey Family”

Hi Annie, Lola is doing so well with us!  She’s happy and healthy and growing like crazy!  We are starting some more obedience lessons with her this month!  She has truly been a blessing- she’s so happy and friendly and loving and sweet!  Thank you so much for helping us find Lola!! Best, Sarah H.”

Here’s another wonderful email that arrived: “Hi Annie, I just wanted to update you on our healthy, happy and beautiful Malshi girl from the October 2, 2021 litter. Khloe is an absolute joy around this household and we couldn’t have asked for a better puppy.  Thank you for being so patient with us throughout the entire process.  Khloe is definitely a little blessing. Forever grateful, Anina!”

“Hi,  we picked up our Yorkie Poo on Feb 9 2018. It was instant love.

alt="reviews for willowbrook kennel"

He was a little over 2 lbs when we brought him home and now he’s close to 10 lbs. We named him Teddy. He definitely suits his name.

He is absolutely adorable and loves everyone. His eyelashes are long and beautiful. He is very smart and cuddly. Teddy wants to be where everyone is and sleeps between your knees if you’re reclining, watching TV.  He was was great company for his older brother Buster who was blind. He brought the puppy out in him. We took both boys to Florida with us in March 2019.

They loved walks on the beach. Teddy is our only dog now and we are so happy with him. He brings us all so much joy! Thank you very much for all your help and I have recommended you to anyone who asks. -Jody J——-.”

“Hi Willowbrook! 
Just wanted to give a update on our puppy that we bought from Willowbrook a year ago. His name is Milo, he is a Peekapoo. He is a very gentle, and loving dog. He loves when he gets new toys and yummy treats. When we bought him home from Willowbrook, he adjusted to his new home very quickly. Thank you!”

August 2020:

Tucker and Ozzi in 2015 before they left Willowbrook.

They are two brothers that live in two separate forever homes in Ottawa with BFFS as owners. They get to see each other at least once a week (before Covid started) 😥

They will be five this weekend . . . they are well loved.  We have enjoyed having them in our lives. They are 2 characters and have amazing personalities.

Take care, the C—– Family & C——– Family

PS: I know you can’t give any info out but they also had a brother and sister and if any requests were made by those families asking about these two you can pass it along. It would be amazing to see or hear how they are doing. Thank you, we would love to hear from them.”

“Hi Annie, Just wanted to give you a quick update on our precious Izzy, a Yorkie Poo from your February 2020 litter. Izzy has been such a beautiful addition to our family. She has the cutest personality and makes you feel like the most important person in the world when you enter a room. Izzy enjoys playing with her toys, chasing balls, lounging by the pool, belly rubs, cuddling, going for walks, and learning new tricks. She is such a happy and lovable puppy and has brought so much joy to our family.

Bella is a Shorkie – a ShihTzu – Yorkie cross.  She loves everyone and everyone falls in love with her.  she is adorable, and plays with our grandkids and kids in our street and thinks she is one of them.  She enjoys her life at our cottage in Kincardine and our home in Waterloo.  We just got back from our vacation in Florida where she enjoyed the sunshine and our long walks.  She looks forward to going to the beach and just chilling out on our back patio. 

Bella brings us so much joy and happiness every single day!  this photograph is taken at her Groomers in Beverley Hills Spa in Sarasota, Florida.

02/2018:  I am finally getting caught up on posting those beautiful photos our dear customers have sent us here at Willowbrook Kennel.  A big “THANK YOU” to each of you!  We love to see how your puppy has grown!

Up first we have “Moose”.  He is a pure Shih Tzu who was born at the beginning of 2017 and lives locally in Waterloo, Ontario.  He is definitely a happy fluff-ball, full of spunk, character, and he has successfully completed puppy training! Isn’t he adorable?

Secondly, we have a “Happy Update” from one of our sweet Peekapoo puppies.  Our customer writes:

Here is another email we received:

“Hi Annie, we picked up the little, male puppy on Saturday, Jan 13th at 9 am.  He is so smart . . . as of Monday he was going on his puppy pad on his own.  We call him Santino. Went to the Vet yesterday, all good, checked out as very healthy, no concerns.  We are so happy.  He was a little shy at first but now is running and playing with his toys and loves to cuddle.  Will keep you updated and when he is a little older will send you a picture.   He is eating and drinking well too, and our grandson just loves him.”

Aw, I’m so glad that things are going well with your new puppy!  Thanks for sending us that note.  We would definitely love to see photos of him when he’s grown a little more.

Continuing on.  These beautiful Shelties left us five years ago!!!  Yes, you read that correctly!  Up next we have an update from dogs that left us years ago.  “Hi Willowbrook, Teddy & Ruby are now 5 years old. We got them at the end of June 2013 . . . born on Feb. 6th.  Just to show you how they are doing:  Little Ruby was a favourite of a little girl at Willowbrook, called Katrina.  Thank you, we love them.”

He is very photogenic, loves long walks, playing with socks and cuddling right next to everyone! As you can see Toby lost almost all of his black colour and is now grey and brown.”

08/06/2016  “Hi!  I just wanted to send you an update on Molly. She was a Morkie from your kennel we picked up in May 2015 . . .  She is a tricolor and ‎kept her three colours although she lost the black on her head.

04/05/2016  “Molly (black, Shorkiepoo – born February 2014) and her half sister Dottie (tan and black, Morkie – born August 2015) are best of friends.”

“Molly lives in London, ON and Dottie lives in Toronto, ON. They lived together for 2 months before I relocated, they miss each other a lot and they stay connected via video chat . . . Molly is a sweet girl who loves lots of attention and doesn’t like to go anywhere without her family. She eats treats in record time and begs for pretzels (although she is not picky, she will eat anything).

 Dottie is the opposite – she is an independent and bold puppy who after only a week convinced me to let her sleep in bed with me… now she hogs the bed.
They both love car rides (this photo taken Christmas morning 2015 waiting for a Starbucks!)…
 
Thank you Willowbrook for these two beautiful dogs. Although they are very different, we are so glad they are apart of our lives.
We love them SO MUCH!”

“We bought 2 Malshi puppies from Willowbrook about a year and a half apart. Teddy was the little male that we bought in 2013 and Dolly was purchased in 2014. They are absolutely the love of our lives! They bring sunshine and laughter every day. They love to please us and are such happy, well-adjusted little dogs. The people who run Willowbrook Kennels are absolutely awesome with these dogs. The puppies that they sell are happy and healthy with no issues. I highly recommend this kennel to anyone looking for one of their breeds of dogs. You won’t be sorry! Thank you Willowbrook for the great job you do!” – Mary G.

“Willie and Jace are in very good health and they are so cute and adorable! We love them so much!! My husband and I are so glad we took both of them, they cuddle and play together all the time, very entertaining. Five months old and they weigh in at 5 lbs each. They are sleeping full nights and during the day they are so full of energy. After a walk In the evening they are so tired out and they get very affectionate.

Willie is the one with the pink nose, he is very carefree. Jace is very cautious of everything. Willie and Jace are doing very well with crate training too, very smart little boys!”

Jackie's Dogs

“Hi, We just wanted to let you know that we love and adore the 2 puppies we got from you last June (were born on Feb. 6/2013). We bought the last boy (Teddy), and the last little girl (Ruby). They just had their first birthday last month, and are the love of our lives! They are such happy, loving dogs! Thanks for such wonderful dogs!” Jackie G.

02/26/2014   Val & Brady bought an adorable Malshi from us and here is their happy update:

Lola

“We brought Lola home August 30th and fell in love the second we had her. She is 7 months old and she is a Malshi, I love coming home to her greeting us at the door with more and more excitement everyday. She is a cuddler and very playful. I don’t know what we would do without her. She brings so much happiness into our house. She loves loves loves the snow. Being so small I didn’t think she would but she is outside in the back yard all the time.”

02/18/2014   Elizabeth & Trevor E. from London, Ontario sent us photos of their Malshi named “Gracie” that they brought home on January 18, 2014 after losing a beloved dog named Jade, 15 years earlier. They discovered this breed while visiting their hockey playing son in Manitoba this past November.

Gracie

Elizabeth writes;
“My son and husband convinced me to get another one, because I had wanted another dog for years. I have severe allergies also and I am not allergic to this breed at all!
. . . I searched and called Willowbrook and they had just had the litter that Gracie was born into, one girl, 3 boys. So I asked if I could have her unseen. We visited her twice before we actually got to take her home and my sister who lives in St Jacobs also visited her for me at Willowbrook. The day we brought her home was one of the happiest days of my life and I truly adore this puppy. She is so good natured and so sweet and her pink nose makes her even more so!”

“We picked up our Multipoo female in May of 2013, We love our pup Luna and also hope we get her fully potty trained soon. We got her hair cut this week and what a transformation. You were right. Our black puppy has gone completely grey after the haircut. She looks great! I can’t believe her sister is not sold yet.
Here is the photo link from puppy pickup to 4 1/2 months.”

Spring 2013   C. & P. from Toronto purchased a Shih Poo from us after seeing his photo on this website. His soulful eyes drew them in and they purchased “Gus” as a brother to a Golden Doodle and a Bichon Poodle. Read about Gus here.

“Hi: Just wanted to write and let you know that our little sheltie girl (we called her Lexi) that we picked up 2 weeks ago yesterday is doing great. She has been excellent at night right from day one. The house training is a bit of a challenge but I’m sure it will come.
Thanks!”

  1. We bought 2 Malshi puppies from Willowbrook about a year and a half apart. Teddy was the little male that we bought in 2013 and Dolly was purchased in 2014. They are absolutely the love of our lives! They bring sunshine and laughter every day. They love to please us and are such happy, well-adjusted little dogs. The people who run Willowbrook Kennels are absolutely awesome with these dogs. The puppies that they sell are happy and healthy with no issues. I highly recommend this kennel to anyone looking for one of their breeds of dogs. You won’t be sorry! Thank you Willowbrook for the great job you do!
