The names have been changed.........

[AndySharon BoomerShaynaMariner]

In order to confuse the public we now have a new dog "Cobbadog", well not a new dog just a new name.  Beverly Manners has decided that her ALD's are now to be called "Cobbadogs".  So as not to confuse things they are being registered by the MDBA foundation (who it seems will register any dog if the fees is paid).

Her inbreeding program has changed the name of the dogs a few times, this just seems to be the latest revision.

 

I found this out from another forum.

Umm I don't know what to say! :0 )

Maybe the name came from this old idiom

"Cobble something up and cobble something together
to make something or put something together hastily or carelessly".

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

LOL, Donna, that's perfect!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Yup...perfect!

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Yes, any of you who have an ALD, congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a Cobbadog!

When you click on any of the links they take you in a big circle through all three of the bogus websites that Grandma B has created to make this look like something real or official. Try it.

For example, if you go to the "Founder's Website"

and click on "Find a breeder", it takes you back to the Cobbadog website I linked above. It's like a house of mirrors. Which is an accidentally apt comparison, now that I think of it.

Cobbadog Kisses? CK?

Nah......

 

[Adina P]

wow.  remember the big ALFA controversy there was a while back?  hmmm. 

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

The "MDBA" is a made-up organization, too.

Check out their list of "members", lol.

Re: ALFA - Yes and now that it's a thing of the past, Yarra's picture that was used for the logo without my permission, will be a thing of the past too.

Do y'all realize that every organization she has founded has gone under? Or as she says, 'she resigned as they weren't keeping to her vision'.

I'm still wondering where some of the beloved breeding dogs that I tell in love with and cared for when I was there went (for real). Where is Sunnie, Isabella and Knossos? It is said Shania is now retired in NSW, however she posted that Shania was retired in '09, '10 and finally '11 when she had a litter under the name 'Nyah', claiming that was her nickname. I never heard her called Nyah when I was there. But she posted the same pictures in '11 of a breeding dog named 'Nyah' that were posted in '10 of Shania and someone picked up on it and called her on it. Only then did she come up with the story that Nyah was Shania's nickname; then why spell it differently and why not mention it? Many people still wonder if Shania is really retired at all.

To all ALD owners, my comment was in no way meant to disparage your wonderful doodles, it is just what popped in my head when I read the new name and the person behind it.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Oh, I'm sure everyone understood exactly what and who was being defined, lol.

[F, Calla & Luca]

Truly, L and C seem exactly the same to me. I still love them and I'll shelter their little big ears from this new name.
