Profile Information
- About Me:
- I'm 40-somethingish. DH & I met while we were both in the USAF in the 1990's. We got married & both eventually left the military & returned to MI, which is where I am from (DH is a CA boy). Now we run a small pre-cast concrete business together (owned by my Dadoo who is semi-retired). My Mom has lived with us since 2007 & Bailey joined our family in June 2008.
- What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!
- Bailey is a small standard Australian Labradoodle from RM, born 31 Mar 08. He's caramel colored with a super-soft wavy, fleece coat.
- Where did you get your doodle(s)?
- Breeder
- Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?
- DH has allergies. He never really cared much for the other "hypo-allergenic" breeds. I saw a show on National Geographic that had a segment about the Australian Labradoodle. Did some research & really liked the qualities of the breed & the looks. We're hoping to certify him as a therapy dog, when & if he ever mellows out!
- What are Your Favorite Things to Do With Your Doodles?
- Bailey just loooooooves balls so we play lots of fetch with him. He especially likes the ones with squeakers in them - he'll fetch the ball, lay down & squeak it for a few minutes, then bring it back to us to throw again. He also looooooooves romping in the snow. We also like to play hide & seek with him. We might try agility or flyball this summer.
- Does your doodle(s) shed?
- Nope!
- Who grooms your doodle(s)?
- Us & Peppermint Pet. We brush/comb him regularly, trim around his face, trim his nails, & bathe him if necessary. He has been professionally groomed several times now & we're very happy with the place - they do a good job with him. Have to keep him shorter than I'd like in the summer as the heat really bothers him.
- Favorite Doodle Products?
- Les Pooch brush, Chris Christensen shears/brushes/Ice on Ice spray, Buddy Boo Boo cream, Cowboy Magic, Chuck It, Free Range chews, Sam's Yams, Happy Hips, MuttLuks, Fido Fleece, Buster Cube, Easy Walk harness, JW Pet Ruffians toys, squeaky balls.
- Relationship Status:
- Married

Thanks for the comment, we can not wait to get Rocco, i hope he is half as beautiful as Bailey! He is my all time favourite doodle.
I know what you mean about the allergies. My mother has allergies too, and we didn’t want to take any chances with our first doodle, so we went with an Australian Labradoodle (Boo). Once we knew she was okay with Boo, then we felt comfortable getting a half Australian/half American labradoodle (Cricket). I’m glad your husband's allergies are fine too! Doodles are great, aren’t they! :)
