Hi Barb,
While walking Greta (Captain/Maddie Nov 2009) down a quiet road in Northern Wisconsin, a red sports car pulled over. The young woman asked, “May I pet your dog? Is she a Rolling Oaks Golden?” I said, “Yes, but how did you know that?” The woman replied, “She has the look.” I asked, “Do you have a Rolling Oaks dog?” She said, “No but I try to read Barb’s blog every week and my dream is to own a Rolling Oaks dog.” My dream has already come true, Greta is a fun dog that loves people and catching Frisbees.  -Karen

Hi Barb! We have been meaning to send pics your way for some time now!! You breed beautiful dogs!! Gus is such a good boy… He is mellowing a bit, but continues to be the active, playful pup we have loved from day 1! (Gus is a 1 ½ year old dog from Delilah/Captain.) Matt & Kristi

We spent a lot of time over the Christmas season down on the lake. This video shows my dream come true….Russ, the kids and Grandkids with all the dogs. It doesn’t get any better!

We have been sending Christmas cards for 31 years. With friends, family and clients we sent over 800 last year. We decided to take a break and send a card every other year. I know our clients enjoy getting a greeting from us, and we love receiving all the wonderful cards from so many of you. It has just gotten to be so many to send, that we are going to try this and see how it goes! Christmas is such a wonderful time of year. We appreciate our family and friends and all our wonderful clients. Owning Rolling Oaks has created some wonderful relationships that we treasure! I have a very unique job. I get to place this wonderful living being into your arms and say ” Many blessings!” A puppy is a lot of work, but anything worth having takes work. All the time and effort you put into your puppy pays off with years of enjoyment and happiness, tons of memories, laughter and joy. As 2012 approaches, we wish you the very best! A year full of health and happiness. We are blessed to be a part of your life and appreciate all of you. God Bless each and every one of you!

December 9th Delilah had three puppies. Two females and a male. Mom and babies are healthy and doing well. These puppies are spoken for. Cabela is due in January. Her litter will be ready to go to their new homes Mid-March. We are still taking deposits for Cabela’s litter.  If you are interested, please fill out a puppy application

Hi Barb: Lambeau (6 months) Packer (almost 6 years) – Just wanted to send you an updated picture of Packer and Lambeau. They are best friends!!! Lambeau is going to go get spayed later today. Poor girl. She is doing great. After the holidays in January we plan on sending her to your week long training class. She already is great but can use extra work. We don’t have to put her in the kennel at night or when we leave the house for short amount of time periods. She is a wonderful addition and is great with Paige. Have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas. I’ll be in touch soon to schedule a week to have her come out. thanks, Jenny

I DID IT!! I finished the book I have been working on called “Chosen For This Gift” and sent it to the publisher this week!! Most of you know that I have been working on this for years. It is about hope, survival and grace in my life and raising a child with special needs. When the book is printed I will have a link on this site to share it with you.

I also want to say a very special HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all of you. I am so grateful for all that I have. read more…
