<br />
Good morning, and Happy Sunday, Sue!<br />
This is the day the Lord has made! Praise you, Jesus!<br />
<br />
I hope you and Mike and your family are doing well! I hope you're enjoying Florida! My inlaws lived for many years and had a home in The Villages! Finding a home church is a big deal. I read on your blog that you did just that! Wonderful!<br />
<br />
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you again for our beautiful and so very precious Twinkle! She is so smart! She loves to talk, and she pretty much runs the house around here! She loves her brother Teddy, and she is such a good example to him on how to behave! Teddy has his Championship. I wish I had shown Twinkle! When we were going to the shows, we would always bring Twinkle, and she was the most beautiful female around! Compliments came in galore from the cocker people on her!<br />
<br />
I was wondering: Do you have a contact so I can purchase another puppy from your line, Sue? I hope your line is still being bred.<br />
<br />
Well, I've attached a couple of photos of Twinkle and Ted! <br />
<br />
May God continue to bless you and Mike abundantly with all good things that only comes from Him!!! Take good care! š<br />
<br />
Lovingly,<br />

<br />
Just a chance that you still have this e-mail address. Thought you would like to know that the two girls we adopted from you in 2011 (Sunny and Molly) are providing us with extreme pleasure. Hard to believe that they will be 6 in August! Mollyās tail goes all the time! Sunny (with her coat on) is a little more subdued, but loves to roll on her back to have her tummy rubbed!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Hope this finds you in good health, and enjoying the summer.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />
<br />

Dear Mama Sue,<br />
Not a day goes by that we don't thank you for our beautiful girls, Molly and Sunny. At three and a half years old, they are the sweetest, most loving dogs we have ever encountered. They are very definitely "people oriented", and love to be with us and snuggle. Being litter mates, they are VERY attached to each other, and are great companions. Molly had to have some extensive surgery on her knee last month, and the veterinarians at the Cornell Companion Animal Hospital were delighted with her personality. Several of them commented on her sunny disposition and the tail that never stopped wagging! <br />
Our girls have dual citizenship now, as they have spent the last 2 summers at our summer cottage in Canada. They enjoy swimming, chasing seagulls, and being couch potatoes on the front porch. They love boating, and Sunny has been known to refuse to get out of the boat if she thinks we haven't had a long enough ride. <br />
During the winter, we let their coats grow in, and with their full coats, they love to be outdoors in the snow. Both of them run full speed into the snow banks, burying their faces in the snow and coming up with snow everywhere! ( or they did...Molly is not allowed to play for another 6-8 weeks until her surgery is completely healed). They chase snowballs and the birds at our many feeders. Crows are especially worthy of attention. <br />
These two sweethearts are very special to us, and we are so grateful that we can be counted as part of your cocker family. We hope this finds you and your family well, and WARM! <br />
<br />
Lynn and David<br />

<i>Note from "Mama Sue"....<br />
<br />
I just found these two emails from quite a long time ago. One was received in the middle of our move to Florida and the other one was received when Mike was so sick. I pray that David and Lynn forgive me for not getting them on the blog sooner! If any of our High Calling Cocker family has had this happen, please let me know and resend your emails to me so I can get them on the blog. Thank you and God bless you all!</i>Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14485488371811966140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-789612258582935444.post-85733704144610879222018-09-29T18:29:00.002-04:002018-09-29T18:35:37.356-04:00Miss Bethany and Miss Tiffany Rose from Tuckasegee, North Carolina~<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A3Ju0wwZerU/W6_8d35AyLI/AAAAAAAAN7s/NSGyYdFkfg8KEI8MaBK2CbyavfsvQOs0gCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_2082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-A3Ju0wwZerU/W6_8d35AyLI/AAAAAAAAN7s/NSGyYdFkfg8KEI8MaBK2CbyavfsvQOs0gCLcBGAs/s640/IMG_2082.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />

Hi Sue,<br />
<br />
Itās been a long time and I apologize for not writing! Hope this email finds you both doing well! Maggie will be 6 years old in August and itās so hard to believe that that much time has passed already. She has been and always will be a joy to have and for that we thank you! She makes friends wherever she goes with us as she is a very sweet girl. We love her very much and tell her daily sheās our best little girl! Her favorite toys squeak with balls being her most favorite...she does love her toys as you can see in the pictures!<br />
<br />
As for Pat and I, I am still working and playing organ and choir directing at the church, although our choir is dwindling in number. Pat is working fulltime as a tall ship sailor based in Erie on a 125 year-old fishing schooner and is loving it. Weāre enjoying our summer and hoping for a less snowy winter this year. Last year we had almost 200ā of snow! That was our most ever and once was definitely enough. <br />
<br />
Well, take care and thank you again for continuing the blog as itās always nice to see the pictures and hear about the other High Calling Cockers!<br />

Hi Sue,</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, "Segoe UI", Meiryo, "Microsoft YaHei UI", "Microsoft JhengHei UI", "Malgun Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. Weāve had so much rain they still havenāt gotten to do the grading to level the yard for the seed. This drives the girls crazy! They donāt enjoy dirt and gravel so they go up the hill to find a grassy spot.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, "Segoe UI", Meiryo, "Microsoft YaHei UI", "Microsoft JhengHei UI", "Malgun Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">

I canāt believe that Bethany is 8. She is such a wonderful girl and she has such beautiful features. She favors her late sister Bella and her mom, Daisy. I am so thankful I found you because your cockers fit the true mold. There are nurses that still remember Bella when we worked as a Therapy Dog team, which I miss greatly. She was a very special and unique dog, a true angel on four paws.</div>

I remember when we flew up to get Bethany. That was so wonderful and filled my heart with joy. She is a loving girl who loves to cuddle. I know as she gets older it will be very difficult to loose her because of the love she gives. I pray I can find a breeder that believes as you do.</div>

Tiffany, is 3. Hard to believe that much time has passed. She is a silly, loving girl who loves to play. Her personality is totally different which in many ways is good. She can make everyone laugh and how she loves her toys!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Calibri, "Segoe UI", Meiryo, "Microsoft YaHei UI", "Microsoft JhengHei UI", "Malgun Gothic", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">

I pray that your family is doing well and you continue to enjoy your new home. I donāt know if I will ever get things set up and finished. I want to have a house blessing but I canāt until I get things in some form of order. Very difficult when it is only one.</div>

Hello Everyone!<br />
<br />
I hope your Christmas preparations are going well and that you are experiencing the joy and peace that only the Christ child can bring. Mike and I have sold our home in North Carolina and have purchased a home in Florida, near Disney. We are enjoying our retirement and most certainly enjoying the nice weather! We don't get around very well anymore, so our next major purchase will be two scooters. I no longer own a cocker but found wonderful homes for Ladybug and Danger. They are much happier in their new homes, living with active families and sleeping on couches in the living rooms and in bed with their new owners at night. So that makes my heart glad.<br />
<br />
I have found a new church nearby that is exactly what I've been looking for, so that too makes me very happy!<br />
<br />
God bless you all this Christmas! <br />
<br />
Much love,<br />
<br />

Hi Sue,<br />
<br />
I hope you are doing better and that Mike is too. I am certain it has really been hard. The girls and I are getting ready to move into out new home, which is about a thousand feet from our old home. Weāll be up on the ridge and have a great view. I pray the girls will be happy in their new home.<br />
<br />
I know your family continues to grow and you are so blessed in many ways. You have blessed my life with the wonderful cockers I was able to get from you. Everyone is impressed by the ālookā and gentleness that has always surrounded them. I still miss Bella as she was a true angle. I canāt believe Bethany, her half sister, is now seven. Iām so glad they had Daisy as their birth mom as it truly shows. You have done wonders which I canāt ever forget.<br />
<br />
Iām so sorry there wonāt be any more High Calling Cockers as you really did a fantastic job with breeding and giving them love which they brought into each home. Just pray that when the time comes I will be able to locate a breeder that is caring and gives the best care and love to each puppy born.<br />
<br />
Bethany and Tiffany are doing well. Tiffany is so funny and brings joy in everything she does. Bethany enjoys having Tiffany around and if Tiffany get over playful Bethany lets her know she needs to calm down.<br />
<br />
All my love and prayers to you and your family. I pray things are going much better for you, Mike and family.<br />
<br />
Cherrieā, Bethany Willow, and Tiffany Rose<br />
Hi Sue,<br />
<br />
We have a really bad snow storm which moved into our area! The first reports said we would have about 4 inches at most and that was for the higher locations. The next report said we could expect up to 12 inches.<br />
<br />
Right now we have about 8 inches on the ground and itās still snowing. Bethany and Tiffany just love the snow and want to play, run and jump all over the place. They have their new coats on, theyāre a pretty purple and easy to see in all the white. They come inside then in a few minutes they want back outside for playtime!<br />
<br />
Theyāre still working on my double wide. They told me yesterday that they only had about two items left to do. Not exactly correct but we are getting there. With the snow it is going to put a delay on things.<br />
<br />
Iāve been praying that things are going better for you and you are feeling the renewed strength of Christ! I pray you can also find a new Church family which will give you the love and support you need.<br />
<br />
Iām so glad you are in a new home that is warm and you love the way it looks! There are lots of items Iām going to give to good will and some of the other places. I just want to take my time going through the boxes. It very hard to pack up a huge lifetime of items. Since the house is almost 100 there are items from Grandparents and even some from great-grandparents. I had to go through the old barn, which was goodā¦ I found Momās old things she used in making lye soap and other things like that.<br />
<br />
Guess Iāll go for now, have a wonderful evening and all my love to everyone there. Much happiness at the Christmas time of year.<br />
<br />
Blessings and prayers,<br />
Cherrieā Bethany, and Tiffany š<br />

Beautiful Sasha meets Father Christmas in Collingwood Canada<br />
Hi Susan, <br />
Each year we take Sasha to the Georgian Triangle Humane Society for a Christmas photo. It is a great fund raiser for the society and produces a lovely memory for us. Here is this yearās photo. As you can see, she is just as beautiful as ever - a terrific little gal who has both Ron and I āover the sideā. We canāt believe that <br />
Sasha will be 6 years old on Dec 13. Definitely not officially a puppy anymore but still so full of fun and energy. (As I write this, she just stole a rubber band in order to be noticed. ) Where does the time go? <br />
<br />
You havenāt posted anything on the blog for a long time. I do hope that is not because of illness or bad circumstances for you or the family. Your High Calling family worries about you too. My hope is that you are just heavily into quilt making! <br />
<br />
Hoping that this finds you and yours happy and healthy. And wishing you a Blessed Christmas. With love and best wishes - Pat And Ron And Sasha. <br />

Sue it breaks my heart that you both are having medical problems. Bethany Willow and Tiffany Rose (Ladybug's sister) are doing well. I pray for all of you and all your family. You have brought joy to me with Bella, we became a registered therapy dog team and could respond nationally. Then We came to Buffalo for Bethany Willow who is now seven. Tears fill my eyes knowing the love you have for cockers and Ladybug. Through you I HAVE joy with my girls.<br />

I can't believe Bailey and her brothers and sisters are five years old today! Where has the time gone?! Two weeks ago I took her and Curley on a dream vacation. My brother-in-law is retiring from the Army after 24 years of service and his final posting is in Savannah. Being a huge Gone With the Wind fan, it's always been on my "must see" list. We left Buffalo on the 6th in the pouring rain and it took almost seven hours for us to finally see the sun when we reached Beckley, WV. The kids were made for hotel living! They definitely made themselves at home and in the morning we hit the road once more. The highlight of the drive South was seeing a truck that looked exactly like Optimus Prime from Transformers on Rte 77 in VA! Savannah was everything I thought it would be! They took me to the light house on Tybee Island and to Jeckyll Island and on our final day, into downtown Savannah and on the Riverwalk. The parks and architecture were incredible. My favorite was probably Saint John the Baptist Cathedral. The organ in back! It made me think of you, of course! That Thursday morning we set out on the rest of our Adventure. The next four days would be spent driving New Found Gap Road through Great Smoky National Park to Pigeon Forge and back to Cherokee, NC, the entire length of The Blue Ridge Parkway, where we hiked some of the Appalachian Trail, and Skyline Drive through Shenandoah National Park. It was all breathtaking and we loved every bit of it! Our final night was the most interesting. Finding hotels that accept furry kids wasn't always easy, particularly on the Parkway. The best rated in Middletown,VA, where Shenandoah begins/ends (depending on which way you're heading), turned out to be a B & B called The Wayside Inn. It was built in the 1700's and is in the heart of Civil War territory. It wasn't until the night before we were due to stay there that I found out it's ranked as one of the 10 most haunted hotels in the country! When I arrived-I found out we were their only guests for the evening! George, one of the owners, was going to stay there with us in case anything happened. Curley immediately fell asleep, so Bailey and I headed out on a walk, where stumbled across a war memorial honoring the town's vets and fallen. When we returned, I heard strange music playing, like I imagine would have been playing during that time period. Our window had four large wooden shutters on them on the inside. When I went to sleep they were flush against the wall and when I woke up, one of them was at a 90 degree angle! It was quite the way to wrap up our trip! I think our next vacation back to our cottage in NH next month will be a lot more relaxing! I hope all is well with you and your family and on this Memorial Day Weekend, please pass on my gratitude to Mike and all your children who have sacrificed to serve our country.<br />
<br />
Love,<br />
<br />
Sarah & Bailey Glory<br />

Just a chance that you still have this e-mail address. Thought you would like to know that the two girls we adopted from you in 2011 (Sunny and Molly) are providing us with extreme pleasure. Hard to believe that they will be 6 in August! Mollyās tail goes all the time! Sunny (with her coat on) is a little more subdued, but loves to roll on her back to have her tummy rubbed!<br />
<br />
Hope this finds you in good health, and enjoying the summer.<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />

Hi Susan: Happy New Year to one and all. Little Miss Millie is well known around the neighborhood. She has to meet everyone on our walks or if there is work being done on the street she has to meet the workers and traffic police. Millie is more known than Kathy and I. When I went and voted the person at the check-out station said " I didn't recognize you without your little dog." I will attach one picture per e-mail. This picture is her favorite sleeping position The tongue sticking out all the time.<br />

HI Susan:</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
As Shane grows, he is starting to get the cutest smile. I call it a Cocker smile. </div>
<div>
Here is a pic, although a little blurry. (Please Don't feel you have to post everything I send.)</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
But all of us here are so very happy with Shane (Oliver), and I think we all grin all day thinking about each other. </div>
<div>
I walk Shane each evening at the local ballfield, and he is so
happy running around the bases, outfield. The grass. He loves chasing
balls. </div>
<div>
I keep him on a leash at all times. It extends to almost 40 ft.
Shane doesn't know the difference. When there is slack, we sometimes run
alongside--ahead--behind, if you get the picture.</div>
<div>
All the while with a pocketful of "treats" or "Cookies". </div>
<div>
Shane knows both words now. He is very smart. </div>
<div>
In fact, he will pick up his leash and shake it if he has to go out.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Thanks for stopping by to check on things today! I hope you are all well, and that your furry friends are well too and are still bringing you much joy.<br />
<br />
I have been having a lot of problems with my cell phone, and am trying to delete things to free up some storage. Consequently, I am finding emails that were never posted to the blog. So please be understanding and have patience with me. Most of you know about our medical issues and realize that I can't get everything posted to the blog in a timely manner......and if I don't, many times they get buried in "old mail" and lost to my poor brain. LOL So bear with me while I clean out my files and find things you may have sent even years ago. If this pertains to you, please accept my apologies. Always feel free to remind me to post your pictures when you don't see them on here. You can always type your cocker's name in the search bar in the top left to view all your posts. Thank you for your understanding and have a blessed new summer's day!<br />

Hi Sue!<br />
<br />
I know it's been a long time since you've seen Miss Belle from Clifton Park. She's grown into a beautiful little lady. She is so kind with our toddler and has become used to bows, brushes and lots of bracelets being put on her! She enjoys long walks in the neighborhood, riding the ferry in Cape May and chewing on her kong. She has added so much love to our home and we couldn't imagine our lives without her. Hope you and your family are well!<br />
<br />
<br />
Love,<br />

Dear Sue,<br />
<br />
Hoping you and your family are well. Lou and I, and the pups, spent the winter in Maine but are back in Florida for a few weeks. I've been lazy about taking photos, but since today is National Puppy Day,March 23rd, I think it's okay to take a walk down memory lane.<br />
Sharon and Lou <br />

Hi Sue!<br />
<br />
Twinkle is such a happy little girl and so precious to us, I just had to send you this photo of her that I took moments ago.<br />
<br />
How are you and yours??!!<br />
<br />
I love your quilts!<br />
<br />
Are you going to start breeding cocker spaniel puppies again?<br />
<br />
Take good care, and may God's Very Best be yours!<br />
<br />
Lovingly,<br />

I've been crocheted like you wouldn't believe. I have crocheted scarves, neck warmers, and crochet choker with button closures. With the chokers I added a round key ring and attached a jewelry easy open clasp for a pendant. You can slip the key ring with attached pendant off and wear the choker with detailed buttons facing or turned to the back as a plain choker. I still have a few more scarves to finish which shouldn't take too long. I imagine you're busy with all types of Christmas things. How is Ladybug doing? I would love to see a photo of her. Can't believe how grown up Tiffany is now. She's a real love and wants to be in whatever's going on. I placed the Christmas candles in the windows and both girls had a fit. They couldn't believe what those things were especially when I turned them on. Once their got accustomed to them they settled right down. The weather here has really been cold, down to 18 this morning. Well someone's shooting off fireworks and neither girl likes the noise. They just came bounding into the kitchen where I am. All my love and prayers also happy wet kisses from Bethany and Tiffany. Cherrie`<br />

Hi Sue, I pray that all of the Martins are doing well and everything is ready for a wonderful Christmas! I hadn't heard from you in a while and I was worried that someone was sick. I pray for all of you each day. It's hard to get the girls to pose together but sometimes there is a rare opportunity. All my love, hope and peace to all of you! May you have a blessed Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Love, hugs and wet special kisses Cherrie, Bethany and Tiffany ( How is Miss Ladybug?)<br />
