Happy Valentines Day!

 

Thank you for loving and supporting our canine family!


Teresa,

Lucy our westie we got from you is such a delight, so we just went on your website to see a double of Lucy, but she is taken.  Do you get westies like our Lucy very often?  The one we saw was 4 months old. We sure love our westie. she is very smart. 

Lenore, Sonny and Lucy

 


 

Teresa,

So far so good in regards to Patty's adjustment.  We are contemplating re-naming her Pearl since she is such a gem :) and since it starts with "P" we figure it would be an easy adjustment.  She and the other dogs are getting along although it is interesting to see them all trying to figure out who is the 'alpha' dog.  She has spent a ton of time in my lap and is really very sweet.  Lot's of energy, very smart which is typical of Westie's and I can tell she has a great nose so we better be careful about leaving food around.  I picked up some Purina Puppy Chow and she is eating great.  I gave her a bath this morning.

She is sitting right underneath me as I write this to you.  I will send pictures in the next few days.  Take care.

Regards,

Steve


 

Hi Teresa,

Ruby is such a wonderful perfect buddy! She is a year and a half now and is so well behaved and incredibly smart. She so badly wants to please me and is the biggest snuggly sweetheart! I don't know what I ever did without her.  I am hooked! Completely in love.  I noticed that Tina and Ruby share a birthday.  How neat.  Anyway, please let me know more about your pups these days, and if you feel that Ruby would like an adopted sister.  She loves all the dogs in our neighborhood, especially the big dogs. I would love for her to have a sibling. I just wonder how frenchies do with new additions to their turf.

I have attached a few pix of the Rubes for your viewing pleasure!  I look forward to hearing back from you Teresa. Happy New Year to you and yours.

Sincerely,

Laurel


Hello,
Here's a picture of us taken in September on our back deck. Our son, Mickey, is holding Jax (formerly Jackson). We adopted him last February and he's adjusted really well. He gets along great with our mini dachshund, Midge, and is a good, sweet boy. He has a very trusting and funny personality and we love him! Please let his former people know that he's doing fine.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Robin, Mike, Jax and Midge

Happy Holidays Teresa!!

 

I wanted to take a moment and say THANK YOU for such a wonderful boy.  He has been an incredible addition to our family and he is very loved.  I have attached a few pictures of Brodey (Spiky Raptor) for you and your son.

Thank you again. 

Best Regards,

Danielle


 

Dear Hestekin Hills,
Rambo has adjusted well to his new home!  He enjoys taking daily walks, trips to the dog park, and car rides.  He gets along well with Oz, our other Frenchie--they are best buds.  It's been a long road, but well worth it.  When we first got Rambo (at 2 1/2 yrs of age) he wouldn't take treats from our hands, go for walks, and wasn't potty trained.  He's made a lot of progress in this past year and is a spoiled pup, living the good life now!

Couldn't help but send you our "fourth" child Chloe, just wanted to thank-you for bringing her to us!!  Merry Christmas!!   Colleen

 


Teresa,

Hello just thought I'd send a note saying katie the Cairn i got from you is my baby still and always. I know it may be hard to remember it was a little over 6yrs ago. She is just the sweetest thing. She.s crazy for the belly rub. What a sugar. She is no dought the sweetest dog I've had.

Ron

 


Teresa,

Hi there.  Its Katie again from a different email address.  I'm Mia's mom, and was just going to share a few pictures of her.

Ok, so a little bit about Mia:

*   She was a very hard puppy to raise.  Lots of energy and even with puppy classes she still didn't listen very well. 
*   Now that she's out of that stage, she is the best dog in the world.  She adores people and does great with the young kids in my family. 
*   Her personality makes her the cutest thing alive.  She sits with her back feet out like a frog, loves to jump up and down really high to get our attention, and sometimes her lip gets stuck in her side tooth.  Haha, there is never a dull moment with Mia. 

I have started a craze at my school, so far 2 other friends have gotten a puggle, and are going through the same stages I went through with Mia.  I just keep assuring them that its well worth the headaches because they'll turn into the sweetest dogs ever.  Mia is definitely a mama's girl = )

So here are some pictures, she turned 2 this past October.....getting to be a big girl!

Take care!!


 

Hi Teresa,

Just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas and thank you again for our little Chloe.In this picture she is resting in her new princess couch/bed that she got for Christmas. Even though she's "officially" our son Noah's dog, our 11 year old daughter, Alexa, loves pampering her in pink collars, coats and now a bed!! Noah hates it but admits that she's cute in pink. We also got her one of those cute red plaid fleece lined doggy coats. Besides keeping her warm, it helps to see her because she blends right in with all the snow we've gotten!! She HATES the cold.

Best wishes to you and your family. We may be ready for a second soon!!

Happy Holidays,

Todd, Julie, Alexa, Noah and Alex


 

Hi Teresa ~ Not sure if you remember me...Casey & I got a frenchie (that we named "Duke") a little over a year ago...he's doing so good - we just LOVE him.  A friend of mine was looking at purchasing a frenchie - and I told them about you...is your website up to date?  Do you have any available? If you could get back to me, that would be great!

 

Thanks alot!

Trudy


 

Teresa,

We just wanted you to know that our new puppy (Lucy) has taken over the house. She is just precious, we both got very attached to her right away. We took her to the vet yesterday, and she is in excellent health. Lucy got her vaccinations, and in three weeks will get her boosters and then she will be spaded.  House training is coming along nicely, no accidents in the house today, as of 5:00  

again thank you.

Sonny and Lenore

 


HI TERESA...THIS IS A PICTURE OF LUCY..SHE IS SUCH A SWEETHEART. WE GOT YOUR MESSAGE FOR AN UPDATE, BUT WE ARE NOT AT CHARTER.  WE ARE AT COMCAST FOR THE WINTER MONTHS...LUCY LOVES ARIZONA, BUT WE WILL BE RETURNING TO MINNESOTA APRIL FIRST. SHE REALLY HAS CAPTURED OUR HEARTS. WE ARE SO HAPPY SHE IS PART OF OUR FAMILY...SONNY AND LENORE

 


Great experience

I did not know much about a Yorkiepoo breed however, my wife wanted one. I looked at puppyfind and located a cute male dog and contacted the seller. She was very informative and helped with all my questions. I called several times asking and trying to decide on the right dog. The seller was very understanding and set up the flight and time to pick the dog up. Upon sending the dog she purchaced the carrier a sweater and toys for the flight. Once the dog arrived it was a great addition to my family. The dog had been socilized and seem to even know he had to go outside for bathroom breaks. I very pleased at the health of the dog and the behavior of the puppy. It shows in his behavior that he was worked with and came from a loving breeder.

Sniper is full of himself. He is doing great. He is just the right size and ls the other older dog.  I will try and send a picture later in the week. I have been working since 6 am this morning and have to get to bed. I have to travel in the morning.


Hi  I purchased a schnoodle 2 1/2 years ago. She is a grey female (was black) born 9/28/05. I
just wanted to let you know that she is a delightful dog. Very healthy, long legs and full of energy, faster than a speeding bullit, and loves to play ball, but doesn't like to give the ball back. Very loving, and she is our princess. I entered her in the Petco spring fashion show last year and she won 1st place. I could have contacted you anytime, but we got such a good little dog there was no need. I would definitely recommend you to any friends I have that are looking for a dog. Just thought you might like an update on one of your puppies, we are very happy with her.  Sincerely, Sheryl and MiMi


Christmas GIFT - Puppy

We deceided to surprise our 10yr. old grand daughter with a yorki poo on Christmas Day! We own a yorki poo & the disposition of the this breed is excellent for children. The size is so manageable as well. Looking on PUPPYFIND.COM & having the comfort of a reputable sight encouraged us to continue our search further. The Hestekin Hills breeder is TOP LINE all the way! I was very impressed with the socialization of the pup, its training & the detailed packaged of information containing the food, vitamins & set of directions for care and weaning needed to get us started! It was presented and organized beautifully! Teresa Hestekin is a quality, loving and caring breeder & the puppies are indicative of this.We purchased with confidence and could not be more satisfied.

Very pleased customer

Teresa & David were very professional. They were great to do business with. They answered all our e-mails in a timely manner. They never pressured us into buying from them. We chose a tiny female chin. She is a our little Gem. We highly recommend them as sellers. Thanks again Eugene & Brenda

Brenda

Hi Teresa, Just drop a line to let you know Gem is doing great.She gets along with our other chins just great.They all take turns cleaning each others face's. Here's some pictures of her.She is up to 3.25 pounds. Her last vet checkup they said she is doing great, her health is great also. Thank you again for letting us get her.

Eugene & Brenda


Teresa,

Gizmo is doing well. I live alone so he gets lots of attention. I had him neutered just yesterday.

I love him dearly, I live in a huge house for him to roam and where I live in the woods.

He loves walks, Wish I can help stop him getting car sick. Doc told me to try Child Dramamine. I own an RV and he did well in that, I guess he hates my VW Jetta and that is making him sick.

My daughter has a Chin and I loved him so much I wanted one also. She lives in NYC, so he is a real city dog, but he loves coming here and having all the space and getting spoiled.

Westie Pup

I purchased my little westie pup, Fergus, just over one week ago from Hestekin Hills. She is a very well organized and caring breeder. She makes the health of the pup priority, and I could tell when I was there that she devotes a great deal of love and attention to all of her animals.

Happy with my little sweetie

I purchased a chin-poo from Hestekin Hills. Teresa the owner was more than helpful answered my questions in a quick fashionaly manner. Always had time for questions. The puppy (Sophie) is adorable and very loving just like she said. If I had to purchase another one or refer someone I would definitely. She showed concern to make sure puppy was shipped okay etc. I have had the puppy only a week, and still asking her questions. She is still being very helpful. I am sure she treated each puupy as her own.

Oliver

This was our first purchase of a puppy either from the internet or from the United States. We are extremely happy. Our Westie (named Oliver)is perfect. He is healthy, energetic, and is taking to the puppy pads right away, it`s only day two!! Not only are we really pleased with our puppy, we are also very pleased with Teresa. She always got back to us immediately and answered any and all of our questions. We ran into a bump with Canadian customs and after one brief phone call to Teresa, she was able to relieve the situation. I also want to add that since Oliver was transported on an airplane, we were pleased that he arrived in his kennel with plenty of food, water and a sweater. :) Thank you so much.

Our new adorable addition to our family!

Your in good hands if your looking for an honest person selling a perfect puppy through the internet. It's scary, but as your doing now; we read the reviews and felt confident we were doing business with an honest person. She even has a website: http://www.hestekinhills.com/arealperson.htm which warns everyone about internet scammers. The description and emails stating the facts and terms of the adoption were perfect and our puppy arrived via airplane safe and sound. Now we have a wonderful addition to our family. She is a beautiful, sweet, happy, & healthy puppy.

Anne


Great Breeder!

We received our Westie Pup on Friday and he is gorgeous! We love him! Teresa is wonderful to work with and spent lots of time answering all of my questions! Our pup is very socialized and loves to be around us. He follows me where ever I go. He is so cute :) Took him to the Vet and he is very healthy too! Just as she said! Thanks Teresa and we will send you some pictures soon!

Hi!

Hope you have a great Christmas!  Do you have any more Westies?  I have been contemplating getting another boy.  I would want one a little older like 6 months or older (already potty trained! ha!)  I would not probably get one until the summer so I would be home with him.  Just a thought!!  Riley is such a love!He is the best dog!!

thanks,

Martha

 


Hi there, Hope you don't get tired of me and Gunnar. We are in the living room and he is roaming around trying to find something to get into. He is still full of it, although he is growing up and learning all the time. He still jumps a little but I have found that is when he wants me to hold him. He doesn't like that to much and don't like to be petted. He just does not have the time, He wants to play. He is better getting his hair brushed as long as I don't touch the legs or his behind. We were just laughing at him and wondering what we be doing now without him. It would be pretty quiet house I tell you.

Take care. Dianna
