About Me:

We used to live on a boat, made friends with every dog on the dock, and longed for the day we could have one of our own again. In 2008, back ashore in Tucson, we found the wonderful puppy we dreamed of for so long! Now we have moved to Mexico, paradise for dogs. Ours goes to restaurants, sports bars, the outdoor markets, and lots of other places with us.

What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!

GoldenDoodle--CurlieQ, "Q" for short. He also answers to Q-ball when he needs grooming, Q-tip afterward, Barbe-Q when he was being a naughty puppy, and thank-Q when he got it right!

Where did you get your doodle(s)?

Breeder

Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?

We had a poodle, and then a golden retriever. We thought a goldendoodle would be the best of all, and he is--so, so smart, and funny, loves us and everyone else, and loves to play with other dogs.

What are Your Favorite Things to Do With Your Doodles?

Everything's better with Q!

Does your doodle(s) shed?

A little bit but nothing major

Who grooms your doodle(s)?

In AZ I taught myself to groom him. His fur is SO fine, he's a real challenge to groomers, and very expensive. In Mexico, it only costs $20 for bath and cut and he's 70 lbs!
