The owner of Noelani's puppy, Leyla, from Noelani's first litter wrote the following to us that I would like to share on my web site, with Leyla's owner's permission.
Leyla continues to bring love to everyone she meets. Today on our daily walk to pick up Jad from school, a large van from a retirement/alzheimers facility stopped. The door opened and the driver said "How do you keep that dog so white?" I laughed and he asked us to come up to the van. Inside were about 25 older people who were out for a drive from their assisted living center. Leyla and I came on board. She licked and loved all of them and I told them all the history of the Coton. She was a hit and we were invited to come and visit them any time. I had already planned to take her to hospitals/retirement homes someday. This confirms that she is a natural at making everyone happy and will be a great therapy dog.
My mother-in-law and my parents have also visited recently and LOVED every minute with her. She is a doll.....she brings happy smiles to everyone she meets! |  |

Coton Grooming DVD A Coton DVD on grooming has just been released. Here is the information on how to purchase the DVD on Coton grooming as written by Dennis Presley - First let me tell everyone a little bit about the DVD. The grooming is done by Scarlett King. She does a really wonderful job on the Cotons.
The DVD is a 2 disc set and is over 3 hours long. It is broken up into chapters for ease of viewing with bonus tracks that feature some of the more common items that you may want to view over again, such as De Matting. We go over basically everything from maintenance grooming to puppy clips, to show grooming. We show how to clean the eyes, brush teeth, clean ears, clean the anal glands (yuck!! I don't like to watch that part). We show various shampoos/conditioners and treatments, and different tools and how to use them. It is really a one stop shop for grooming your Coton. We are still working on a booklet that will accompany the DVD. This booklet will show the products and tools shown in the video and where they can be purchased. This should make it easy
for newbies to find the right tools and products they need without purchasing too many tools that will never again be used.
Here is the purchasing info.
The price of the DVD is $ 60.00 plus $ 5.00 shipping and handling in the U.S., and $ 9.00 shipping and handling to Europe.California address will be charged sales tax. (Sorry CA residents, our state gov. at work) Breeder/litter pack pricing will available upon request. Anyone who purchases the DVD will have the booklet mailed to them separately as soon as it is completed.
We will accept Paypal. You can access Paypal and then pay for the DVD by using my email address which is: buddysson@aol.com
If you pay by Paypal, please email me with your address so I can keep track and make sure I have all the information.
You can also email me directly if you want to pay by check and I will email my address to you. As soon as I get our website up (www.californiadreamincotons.com, it will be available there via shopping cart. It will also be available through another distributor that I will list soon.
Also, 10% of the sale of every DVD will be donated back to UCARE at this time. As soon as the Coton Health Foundation is up and running, there will be a split between it and UCARE. From the onset of this project it was our desire to give back to the Cotons for the joy they have given us. This is the best breed on earth and they deserve the best from us.
If anyone has questions or I missed something, please either email me or call me at 714-420-9873.
Thanks for your support on this and to everyone, Have Fun Grooming!!!
Dennis Presley
