A very sweet neighbor pulls over her car this morning while I'm taking Riley for a quick potty break before I go to work. She rolls down the window and calls Riley by name. Of course, my way over…Continue

What is your doodle's weirdest habit?

Has this question come up yet? While reading the bed discussion, it made me think of Riley's bad habit. She waits until we are ready to sleep and starts chomping on her nails. Thankfully she is in…Continue

Our neighborhood has several small dogs that do not like bigger dogs and have evil barks/growls. Our Riley is a 40 pound GD that rarely ever barks and just wants everyone to play. I'm always…Continue

Riley gets overly excited at meeting any living creature so we were concerned she would squash our friend's 6 week old lab. After much insistence from our friend, we let Riley loose. We were amazed…Continue

"Looks totally doable, Karen.    Ned and Clancy got their CGC certificates - but we didn't keep up their discipline and they are naughty boys nowadays.  Clancy had a little trouble with being left with a stranger with his handler…"

"I think it really doesn't matter if she obeys "begrudgingly"....if she obeys that's a great thing and she doesn't have to like it.  So I think your strategy of using the mud room is perfect IMO....once she starts…"

"Would you be interested at all in taking a CGC (Canine Good Citizen) class with her? Greeting people calmly with all 4 on the floor, both at home and in public,  is one of the major things a dog learns for CGC. And if she passes the test after…"

Welcome to DoodleKisses - the best website around for doodle lovers everywhere.  You can find some groups to join and get all the information you want there.  You might give the grooming group a look.  We always groom our own doodles and have a grooming area in the laundry room.   I had my husband build it when he was building the new garage and laundry room.  It is great for our two large doodles.
