Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum
I wanted to start a little post on these two adorable doodles that are available for re-home through the DRC. They are a brother/sister pair that truly would like to stay together. The back story on these two is near and dear to me and I so want to see them go to a wonderful family that will show them the true doodle life they deserve.
They belong to a family that lives around the corner from us. We can see their house and the doodles from our back yard. Two weeks after we brought Lucy and Sophie home I looked out across the back yard and here were these two little puppies running through their front yard. They looked exactly like Lucy and Sophie. We had just moved into the neighborhood a couple months prior and had not met these neighbors but of course I had to run over and say are those Doodles. As soon as I saw little Shadow up close I knew exactly where they came from as I had spoken to that breeder about Sadie and I saw Shadows photo on their website. He had a little white spot on his chest. We ended up going to another breeder or Sadie would have been ours.
Anyway, long story short, one child ended up allergic and Shadow and Sadie were moved outside where they have lived for the last 5 years. If a doodle has to live outside, they were living in outside luxury, but none the less they were outside. That aside they are the sweetest most loving doodles ever. Shadow is a big boy, weighing in at 137 lbs. Sadie has completely stolen my heart. If Mike had his way they would both now be living in our house (along with Honey), but a house can only hold so many doodles or should a say a checkbook can only handle so many doodles! Shadow loves to fetch but Sadie won't leave your side long enough to go fetch. She would rather have belly rubs. They both just drop at your feet for belly rubs. When Mike and I go over they will be getting belly rubs from us and all of a sudden they do a switch and trade places for more belly rubs. They have gorgeous coats. I've never seen a hair on me after being over there playing with them. Their coats are not matted. They just don't seem to come with any of the baggage that so many of our re-homedoodles do. They will walk on a leash, they sit, they will kennel up as he calls it when he wants them in their big pen. They are just wonderful doodles. Their owners have been considering this for awhile now, but he recently started a new job and is living away through the week right now so they have decided they need to put their selfish desires to keep them aside and think about what is best for Shadow and Sadie. They will get a new home but they will be inside doodles getting all the belly rubs they can stand.
If anyone knows anyone looking for a pair of doodles, please have them consider Shadow and Sadie!
(I don't want to turn this into a conversation about doodles living outside, I just want to try and find a home for them together). I love them like my own and have watched them grow up. When we first lost Sophie every time we walked past their house Lucy pulled to try and go in the drive way back to where they were. She had never done that before. So we started letting her go back and say hello.
If anyone has any questions I'm happy to answer any that I can. Like I said, I just really want them to be able to stay together if at all possible!

where are these doodles located?
They are in Ohio.
Southern Ohio, 40 miles east of Cincinnati.
Sadie has of course gotten a lot more attention from potential adopters than Shadow, since she is smaller, blonde, and female. I hope we can find someone who wants both of them so that they don't have to be separated. To lose the only home you've ever known is traumatic enough for a five year old dog, imagine also being separated from the sibling who has been with you since birth at the same time. I hope anyone who reads this will share Sadie & Shadow's story so that they can find a wonderful home together.
Just the thought of them being split up makes me sick. I want them to find a new home together!!
I know you will do everything you can to help, Laurie. The thought of having to separate them breaks my heart.
Thank you, Sheri, for writing this discussion. It just made me think about luck of the draw again and how Sadie missed out when she did not get you and Mike as owners. I always hate to see dogs split up and I pray someone great comes along and takes both of them and loves them to pieces. I am sure this discussion will help.
You know Laurie I've thought about that during this process as well and how much heartache would have been saved all the way around if we had originally gotten Sadie. However, I've also thought about all the love my heart would have missed if we had not gotten Sophie! No way to win that one, :o(
It's all part of some great plan - can't question these things. You and Sophie were meant for each other.
Sheri, once again you show your love and concern for doodles. I wish I had a yard and could take them both, but I don't think these 2 would be happy in a townhouse without a yard. I would drive to Ohio in a heartbeat to get them if it would work. But I pray that there is someone who will take both of them because the alternative would be heartbreaking. Thank you for the background!
Ill adopt one but I can't take both. We already have a Doodle and could not handle three. However I do hate to separate them, but we will give one of them a wonderful home.
