Dear Elaine,
I just wanted to write and tell you how Shiloh is doing. He
went for his 9 week shots and check about two weeks ago. The vet said he was in perfect health. He also
said that he was a perfect representive of his breed and was truly a beautiful puppy. Everyone we meet comments on how
beautiful is markings are. Not only is he beautiful he has the sweetest personality. He is a little snuggle bug!!
He love to snuggle and sleep. He also loves to play with our cat. The two of them together is hilerious. Thank
you so much for such a wonderful dog. I don't know how we made it without him. He is such a part of the family.
Oh, and he loves the ballfield. The kids have a fit over him and if he isn't there to cheer them on they want to know
why. He is also, doing great with training. He is a smart little fellow. Again, thank you for such a wonderful
dog. He has helped to heal us and ease the pain of losing our beloved boxer and he has brought life back to this house.
Our cat is happy for the first time since we lost our dog in October. They were so close and now he has a playmate again.
We were worried but they get along great. They love to wrestle and play together. It is so cute!! :) I can't thank
you enough. Here is a recent pic of Shiloh.
Sincerley,
Zane, Christy, Blake, and Shiloh
Hey Elaine! We just wanted to update you on Shiloh. He is doing GREAT!! He has to
be the most precious dog!!! We are so blessed to have him in our family. Everyone we run into with him has a fit
over how adorable he is. Today we took him to a pet fair in our county. They had a little pet parade and Shiloh won
a little award for being so adorable!!! He is three months old today and is precious!! Thank you so much for such
a wonderful puppy!!! I will attach some photos. One is from the ride home when we picked him up from you.
I have continued to take a weekly photo to document how much he as grown. Again, THANK YOU!! :)
Zane, Christy, Blake, Shiloh and Patches
P.S. Shiloh and the cat (Patches) are
so funny together!! They are becoming fast friends.

Dear Elaine,
My name is Chelsey Mishra and you sold my husband, Mark, and I a beagle in mid
January who was Shelby's female #1 and we named Penny! I wanted to write to you and give you an update on how Penny is doinng.
She is one of the best dogs I have ever had and is my first beagle, but I am now obsessed with beagles haha. We are so happy
we picked her and love that she is a red and white beagle which is so unique. Everyone who sees her comes up to pet her
and thinks she is the cuttest beagle they have ever seen. In fact, some of our neighbors who we really didn't talk to much
are now all the time talking to us and Penny, and everyone comments on how happy she looks. Every time we go to the vet, our
vet and all the workers love to see Penny and say how she is just the cuttest beagle they have ever seen.
I take Penny
on 2.5 mile walks five days a week, which she LOVES. I guess she is a bit spoiled, she has lots of toys and bones to keep
her occupied. She is a very smart dog, she is now almost 6 months old, and she already knows how to sit, stay, come and other
words like "bedtime" and "no". She does have a true beagle personality though and is still a little stuborn.
We really love Penny and she is sooo sweet and beautiful! She has become a real part of our family and we
thank you! We have attached some pictures for you to see. Thanks again for such a wonderful family friend!
Sincerely,
Chelsey
Mishra

Hello Gary & Elaine,
Chloe is doing great. She is 11 weeks old now. She is the sweetest and most beautiful puppy! All of our neighbors come
by to see her when we're outside and they can't believe how cute she is. She loves everyone and is so friendly and playful.
She has a boyfriend across the street. He is a golden/lab mix named Chilly who is 3 days younger than her. Chloe is now 6
pounds and Chilly is 20 pounds already. It's funny to see them play together because he looks like he could swallow
her whole! Luckily he is a very sweet boy too. She is also soooo smart. She can already sit, stay for a little bit, look in
your eyes when you ask her and do down. (For a treat of course) We ask her to sit before she goes in and out and she sits
and looks in your eyes before she gets her food. She is doing well with potty training and has not had many accidents and
is doing better with crate training. We have attached a couple pictures of her. The one of her sleeping in the blanket
was taken the night we got her and the other one was taken tonight. We hope you enjoy them and again, we hope all is
well. God bless you all and thank you for such a special puppy. We'll keep in touch.

ever!

A Short Dog Story
by Patrick Finneran
March 29, 2010
Caulderwoods Miss Lily Anne has come to live with us
Come the end of March, she will have been with us for a year. How she came to live with us is quite a story. Oh, before
I forget, I ought mention that Lily is a dog. A Beagle to be specific.
Back in '07 at age 72, I was diagnosed with Non-hodkins Lymphoma of the stomach, and began a long, arduous, series of
chemotherapy and radiation treatments. When it began I weighed in at close to 200 pounds, and stood five-foot ten. When I
was finally declared, "cured" I'd lost a good 100 pounds and an inch or so in height. Much of this time I was in hospital
confined to bed. When I couldn't take in enough nourishment to counter the weight loss, my body began to consume itself. Consequently
my muscles and body atrophied to something akin to a ten year old boy's physique. At 200 pounds I wanted to loose about 20
or so pounds, but this was ridiculous! What has all this got to do with a dog? I'm getting there.
Ever since
I can remember my family have had dogs- Cocker Spaniels, English and Irish Setters, German Shepards. I can even remember each
one's name. So dogs were a big part of my life.
When I was finally released from hospital, during one of my many
follow-up visits with my Oncologist, Dr. Mary Lou Mayer, she urged me to get out and walk to rebuild my body. I mentioned
to her that I was thinking about getting a dog. To my surprise far from discouraging the notion,she urged me to do so. Then
began a short discussion about what I should get. I allowed I was seriously considering a Bearded Collie. She regarded me
for a moment and then urged me to consider a Beagle. The thought had never entered my mind.
Part of a novelist's
life is spent in research, so I launched into a thorough study of the two breeds. Although I was predisposed
to the Bearded
Collie, I soon learned from my research that our two physical conditions and opposite temperaments would not be good for
either
of us. So, I began a search for a reputable Beagle breeder in the Indianapolis area. Alas there are none. The closest seemed
to be in the northern third of the state or in Kentucky and Tennessee. This led to an Internet search for a kennel and a dog
for sale. After
several days of searching I saw a photograph of Caulderwood's Miss Lily on an Internet site offering AKC
Beagles for sale. "Miss" Lily had
just turned four, and had been bread twice. She looked to be just mature enough to be
more docile and ready to "settle down"with a family.
Following a fair amount of email correspondence, I decided
to purchase Miss Lily. The Kennel owners, Gary and Elaine Nichols, would not ship her so it was decided that I would drive
down to Greeneville, Tennessee to complete the deal and return home with Lily. It was a good seven-hour trip each way.
The
Caulderwood kennel is located out in the rolling hillsides of Tennessee, and after much searching, I managed to find the place.
Turns out it was a very "small" operation- few dogs, each had open space to play and run to their heart's content. Obviously
not a puppy farm operation! Lily proved to be a delight from the moment we met. With a few papers signed, and the asking price
handed over, Lily and I were soon on the way back to Indianapolis. Needless to say we took advantage of each rest area, and
I provided a bowl of water with each stop. She proved a good traveling companion, curled-up on the passenger seat next to
me not much interested on looking out the window- just content to be patted and talked to as we made the long journey. By
the time we got home we were fast friends, and it was obvious Lily considered me her champion and protector.
Lily
has proven to be a perfect member of the family. She has taken to each of our adult children and their children. She is a
loving, trusting companion, loves to be taken for walks, and when the evening comes, she insists of sharing my chair with
me while I watch TV or read- if my evening is too busy she will go snuggle up next to my wife in her chair. Lily has another
advantage, she's the perfect size, sort of a "medium size" and has proven to be the most intelligent dog I have ever
owned. She quickly picked up on our verbal commands and hand signals. To top it all off, her face and eyes can be read like
the headlines in a newspaper. To say it is an honest, expressive, open face is not to do her justice.
I began
this story by citing the fact that I was not new to dog ownership, having owned several "popular" breeds prior to our Miss
Lily. So, let me end this short story with this quote from Diane Morgan's book on The Beagle: Beagles are excellent dogs in
every way. If you want a dog with the elegance of and Irish Setter, the brains of a Border Collie, the trainability of a Golden
Retriever, and the feisty temperament of a terrier, go ahead and get one of those dogs. But of you want a charming, lively,
happy-go-lucky companion to share your life, make you smile and nourish your spirit, then a Beagle is really the only sensible
choice. Beagles are blessed with the best temperaments in the canine world, the kindest hearts, and the friendliest faces.
Who could ask for more?"
Miss Lily is the good looking one on the right.

Elaine,
I got my "Nanna" from you in October of 2004. She is the daughter of Barney
Clay and Lady Annabelle. She is a totally spoiled rotten child whom I love. She is almost 6 years
old; but she still keeps me on my toes. Her favorite pastime is to "steal" something of mine for me to chase her -- somehow
I always thought it was supposed to be the other way around....but anyway, Her puppy picture is on the last page of your puppies
of the past and says relocated to Alabama. I registered her as Sweet Pollyanna Sassafrass (She does have a sassy attitude.)
But nieces and nephews shortened her name to just Nanna which fits her. Thanks so much for the joy she brings me!

Hi,Elaine-
Finally I am sending pictures of Sadie. She is growing up to be such a beautiful Beagle! Her first year has been great!
She was not hard to train at all. We took her to obedience classes in the Spring and she did fine. Her only problem is being
over enthusiastic greeting our visitors, but she is getting better. The Grandchildren love her and she has been such a joy
to us.

Elaine,
Hello! Just wanted to give you an update.....Jax
just turned 3 on July 26 (in San Francisco). He has grown into the most amazing, lovable, smart, adorable and beautiful dog
(with a lot of puppy left in him). He has made so many friends.....he is very well socialized, being that we live in a densely
populated City he has no choice. I think so many beagles
get a bad wrap due to their barking/howling, so I just want you
to know that Jax is wonderful in that respect. He only uses his voice when needed, provoked, or like a child, when he is tired.
He is amazing with kids, other dogs, all kinds of people, fire trucks, skateboards, bicycles, shopping carts, cats, squirrels
and even gerbles.....you name it. He makes friends with everyone and everything - has grown into quite the perfect companion!!!
He is truly the dog of my life!!! He
is so amazing and he has such a connection to both of us. He listens, comes
when is called (even in the park), is wonderful off-leash - which is the most amazing part. We can actually walk Jax off-leash
through the City - he doesn't chase after anything and listens/trusts us extremely well! And, he is the best trail dog ever,
he goes almost everywhere with us! He loves to explore and follows me along trails, crossing rivers, hopping boulders and
swimming at the lake. Of course
his nose still gets him into trouble every once in awhile ;) He is fullof love every minute
of the day! We couldn't be happier that he has come into our lives - you guys are excellent breeders. He is a one-of-a-kind!
Thank you!
cheers,

Just wanted to forward to you some pics of one of your pups. This was the female I got from a family
that realized she was too focused on hunting to be a house dog (well, she is a house dog still but runs rabbits every day
and roams the farm). I met up with the family I got her from at a field trial. Here are some of the the family's pics as sent
to me. Thank you again for a wonderful dog!

this little guy into our lives!

Elaine: we apologize for not writing sooner with puppy updates, and I wanted to
send a recent photo or two of our fella.
Copper (Dixie's Copper Penny to the AKC) is a doll. He
will be a smaller version of the breed, which is fine by us. Copper loves to sleep, anywhere, but preferably near us
on the couch or by himself in a cushy chair. He is happy, healthy, and a clown. He was a complete joy at Christmas,
sleeping in our daughter's lap while she recovered from foot surgery, and has won the hearts of all who have met him.
He gets nearly daily walks around our neighborhood lake, about 1.4 miles, always on a leash, and is especially well-behaved
when encountering other, loose dogs. Thank you for raising him to be our little boy; we love him very much,
Joe & Susan

I just wanted to wish you and everyone at Caulderwood a Merry Christmas and happy New Year! Penny is doing great.
She is 5 months old now and even better than I would have ever imagined! She continues to amaze me with how smart she is.
She loves to go on walks and play with the other dogs in the neighborhood. I cannot thank you enough for bringing her into
my life; she is absolutely the best pet anyone could ever ask for! I've attached some recent pictures of her so you can see
what she looks like now. Thanks again and happy holidays from South Carolina!

Paisley is doing very well. She is a sweet, lovable dog and we all adore her. She is spoiled
with expensive chew treats, her own screen porch and private fenced backyard, and one good walk a day, weather permitting,
and an occasional trip to my dad's twenty acres where she plays with my dad's shelty. House training only
took a couple of weeks. Can't complain there!
Here's a recent picture.
Take care,

After 3 months of living with our boys, we could not be happier or more proud.
Jon and Steve are friends with every dog they meet and happily allow humans
to pet them. They have been to the Biltmore Estate where Steve swam in the French Broad River; they stood their
ground against a black bear about 15 feet away and turned it back into the woods; and Jon is lookout for a hedgehog who lives
in our yard. Most of all, they are so loveable and funny, gentle and handsome. Needless to say, they are
smart and know that they are special. You can close your kennels now because we have the best dogs you've ever
bred!

Hello!
We wanted to update you on the puppies. First of all they have been renamed to "Logan" & "Sammi"
by the kids. They are fitting in and adjusting just fine. It's like they've always been here! They are definitely
getting a whole lot of love and doing a lot of exploring.They are both eating and drinking good.
We want to thank you for our new members of our family! They are adorable puppies with great personalities.
Plus, they are hilarious to watch roll around together! We'll take good care of them and love them a lot! We'll
send updates as they grow!
Sincerely,

Hi Elaine,
So about our little Padme'. Well she is not so little
any more. She is
about 20 lbs and about 11 inches. Everyone in our complex loves her. She is such the
lover. We take her to the park every weekend. Steve and I found this great off the leash park. The whole
thing is fenced in and it leads to a beach. It is so much fun Padme' loves it.
She is starting to swim a little better. We bought
her a life jacket.
She just is loving life. We are going to put her in a pet photo contest at Steve's work.
But we can't find just one picture that we like the most because she is just so cute.
So here are a few pics of Padme' talk to you soon.

Hi Elaine,
I thought you might like to see Barney at 6 months! I take him to puppy play day on Saturday mornings
since we don't have any dogs in our neighborhood that he can socialize with and or play with. Puppy play day is his favorite
day of the week! He knows it too. He knows where we are going when we turn onto a certain road.
He is so wonderful to have in our lives.
I hope you are all well and are having a good summer.

Hi there at Caulderwood kennels,
Barney is now one day away from being 17 weeks old! We can't believe how quickly he has grown. Barney is
the light of our life. He is so much fun and he is also SO smart.
We take him to a puppy play day on Saturdays so he can have some romp time and socialize with other pups
his own age (not necessarily his size, some are way bigger, some are smaller). He loves it but he really LOVES people.
We walk him at least twice a day, he sleeps with us on the bed!! He has all kinds of toys and he goes everywhere
with us. Not very spoiled!!!
We are so happy with him, he is all that we wished for and more! Thank you so much for breeding such wonderful
beagles, ours in particular.
Hope things are going well for you this spring, keep in touch.

I just wanted to let you know how much we love our Beagle. He was a son of
Hannah and Luke, his name then was Herbie. Since we have had him we call him Rowdy! He is so much fun, he goes everywhere
with us. He is the perfect addition to the family. He loves Florida, and his favorite thing
to do is dig at the beach. :-)
Thanks again, The Lindsey's

Hi Elaine,
Its been about four months now since we brought little Tessie home with us, and we just wanted to let you
know what a great little beagle she is. She is about 6 months old now and is the daughter of The Rebel
and Lady Camille. She is without a doubt the smartest dog I've ever owned, and definitely the cutest. She has really
become a part of our family, I dont know how we got along without her now. She has this great mischievous sense of humor that
you just cant get mad at. Her favorite thing to do is to go track and chase down squirrels and rabbits outside with her brother
Murphy. They are inseparable. Where ever Murphy goes, Tessie is right behind him. Its funny to watch Murphy look around the
house for Tessie when Eric takes her to the vet. He is so lost without her now. We are both really grateful that we found
you...especially Murphy, because the only thing better than having a beagle is having TWO!

Just wanted to let you know how Jack is doing!
He's adjusting well to his surroundings and
absolutely LOVES his rabbit squeeky toy we gave him the first night we got him home. Since we've had him he's been in a total
of 5 different homes and has been just great with his potty training! All this taveling has got him very used to riding in
the car...if he has his own seat so he can stretch out and sleep! Jack is definately a laid back, easy going little boy and
sleeps whenever he gets a free minute!
Graham and I are definately attached, and he's really attached to us also. During
the holidays, Graham had him at his parents' and if he'd leave the house without Jack, Jack would wine and whimper til he
got back. I kept him for about 3 days, and he always wanted to be where I was and followed me everywhere! He was so great
with my two little cousins (3 and 1 years old). He loves going for walks in the park. Graham's parents' dogs Sandy (yellow
Lab) and Tee (Bichon Frise) were very excited to see him, and he gets along really well with both of them. We couldn't have
asked for a dog with a more fitting personality to our own. He's loved very very much and gives a lot of love back!
Attached
are some pictures. The first is one of him with his "old man" sweater on. The second is our Christmas card picture we
took on campus at UT.
Graham and I both would like to thank you for answering all our questions we had the day we came
to get him. We absolutely adore Jack and wonder what we ever did without him!
God Bless,

Hello Gary & Elaine
Christmas time has come and gone and we just wanted to take a moment and wish you & yours
a Merry Christmas. Of course to update you on Jack also. He is such a wonderful addition to our family and so
very handsome. My son & Jack have become the best of friends, where ever Caleb is, Jack is never that far behind.
We love him probably just as much as he loves the snow! Here are a few pictures to show you how he has
grown. Take care and Thank you again for such a wonderful pup.

Elaine,
Our wonderful Eddie is celebrating a second birthday.
It has been two years of unbelieveable joy with this faithful
little friend. Every day still brings a surprise at how smart he is and I am thankful for all the times he makes us
laugh which is often. Yes, he is quite spoiled but oh, how obedient and kind. He is amazingly sensitive
to what we expect of him and will do ANYTHING to stay in our good graces. And he is so much fun to photograph.
Needless to say, we think he is the best and
cutest dog in all the world but I'm sure there are scores of other Caulderwood beagle owners who think the same thing.
Happy Birthday to Eddie and his siblings who were
born on Sept. 28, 2005 to Li'l Miss Bridgett and General Patton!
Most of all THANK YOU forever for the quality of fine
beagles you raise.
Sincerely,
Gail and Jay Diederich
and Edgar Lamar (Eddie)
P.S. If owners of Eddie's siblings
would like to correspond I would LOVE to hear from them and see pictures of Eddie's brothers and sisters. Email:

Elaine-
Just wanted to let you know that our little
Harley has adjusted quite well to our newest addition to the family, baby Jude. We find her quite often curled up next to
him or kissing his face. She is doing great and loving her new home here in Texas, where she has a big fenced in backyard to run around in! She is now
2 years old and still full of energy. She brings such entertainment and joy to the family!
Hope this finds you doing well.
Blessings,

Hello Elaine,
This is Jack Kraus, I am one of General
Patton & Miss Carmen's puppies. I just wanted to write and tell you that I absolutley love my new home in Kansas!
They have a 3 year old little boy for me to play with, I really like to chase him and pull at his shorts. Mom says we
are like 2 peas in a pod, sounds yummy! We go for a walk everynight, so I get to run around and stiff everything
in sight. I even found my first turtle the other night, he was really big, when I barked he didn't like it much. I am learning
how to play fetch and Mom & Dad tell me I'm going to puppy pre school soon. I've got a few tricks to show those
other puppies. I must be really handsome because mom is always taking pictures of me, here are a few to share with you.
Mom & Dad also wanted to thank both of you for such a wonderful puppy, I guess they mean ME!!

| Banks' Charlie Brown |
Elaine,
Hello! I hope all is well. My husband and I visited your
kennels and picked out a beagle back in February for my dad's 60th birthday. I just wanted to let you know how pleased we
are with the family's new addition.
My dad named him Charlie Brown (we call him Charlie,
Charles
when he's in trouble) and his AKC name is Banks' Charlie Brown; it has a nice ring to it.
We attached a photo of Charlie outside on my dad's farm in
Virginia. He loves all the smells and the numerous chipmunks there are to chase. He's also got quite a toy collection going!
He's
the perfect addition to the family and my mom and dad can't find enough good things to say about him; they love telling his"stories."
Thanks so much,
Holli Banks Brown
Virginia
(Charlie is a very handsome son of our Miss Besty and Luke)

Hi Elaine! I just wanted to send you an updated picture of our beautiful Honeysuckle.
It was taken at Pet Fest here in Charleston a couple of weeks ago. Last weekend, Honeysuckle participated in her very
first charity event, a 3K walk to benefit the Low Country Lab Rescue. As you can see, she is a very busy girl.
The weather is very warm now so she'll be off to the beach soon! Hope you enjoy the picture!

| COOPER-15 WEEKS OLD |
Hi Elaine,
Just thought I would write and update you on how our new puppy is doing. He is the proud son of your Lady Camille and
The Rebel. We named him "Cooper" and he has adapted to his new home really well. He is 15 weeks old now. We just had
him to the vet to start him on his heart worm medicine and his 4 month booster and he was such a good boy. All the staff there
just loved him, of course. He is so full of energy, and makes everyday a joy for us. He loves to play tug of war with his
rope and be chased around the house by his brother Murphy, who is my girlfriends beagle. Every night he curls up on the bed
right next to me and is there to wake me up with kisses in the morning. I know alot of people say this, but I really
believe that Cooper is the best beagle ever! He is one good looking dog with the personality to match. We can't thank
you enough for bringing him into our lives.
Best Wishes,
Tony, Gen, Cooper, and Murphy!
