Lucie bear has joined the double digit club with her 10th birthday this week! I wanted to share just a little piece of our story. I know many of you have younger pups, and that is also when we were…Continue
How much exercise does your young adult doodle need?
Started this discussion. Last reply by Marcy, Apollo & Phoebe Sep 13, 2012. 20 Replies 0 Favorites
I have to admit, I've been wondering if my doodle gets more exercise than she needs. I realize this might sound a little crazy at first, because isn't more always better? I really prioritize Lucie…Continue

Inside barking...how to make it stop!
Started this discussion. Last reply by Patty, Roxy & Spencer Nov 4, 2010. 9 Replies 0 Favorites
Lucie has become developed a habit of barking inside and my attempts at training her that this is "bad" have not persuaded her to stop. Has anyone had any success or know of any strategies? I do not…Continue

"This is a lovely tribute. Thank you so much for sharing it with us--I wish you and Lucie many more years together!"
"What a sweetheart Lucie is, such a pal! When I was younger and getting on my own way, I had to hand over my dog to my parents in a different state - it was too hard to hold down full-time plus OT to keep myself afloat, plus finding…"
"Jessica, I so agree that dogs add so much to our lives. I wish you and Lucie many more happy years."
"What a wonderful tribute!! Lucie is a doll. 2 and a half years ago, I also got a very energetic pup named Zoey. When they did temperament testing, I told the breeder that I needed a dog that could keep up with me. I routinely…"

Double Digits! (Those puppy days go by faster than you think!)
Lucie bear has joined the double digit club with her 10th birthday this week! I wanted to share just a little piece of our story. I know many of you have younger pups, and that is also when we were more active on this site, and there are going to be good days and what we call bad doggie days, sacrifices and challenges, but what I wouldn't give to have 10 more years with my love. When I got Lucie as an 8 week old puppy in August of 2009, I was a 22 year old, right out of college without much of…See More
"Definitely get a life jacket - they may get tired of swimming more easily than they realize, or get further from you/shore then they have the energy to swim back. The peace of mind is worth it. We love the ruffwear float coat."
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am a professional house hunter/marketing consultant (aka Realtor), living and loving life in Downtown Silver Spring - Right next to DC. I am an overambitious crafter/chef/photographer with a never ending to do list of projects, but ready for the next snowmageddon.
- What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!
- I have a medium first generation goldendoodle (mother Golden, father poodle) named Lucie. I can't believe that she is 3 and a half, although I'd like to think we are at the start of the doodle "golden years" and maybe beyond the teenage stage.
Lucie is one special dog, and very much loved by her mother, Aunt, Uncle, Grandma, and Grandpa. In fact they love her so much that they invite her to visit all of the time, and they now figure they don't need to get their own dog. Lucie likes having 3 families, although she wishes they would all live together in one house, she is just happy that she can love all of them and that they will play fetch with her (and have learned to please throw the ball so it bounces, because that's how she likes to catch it).
Lucie's larger than life personality means no need to get another pet for now, she manages to keep all of us very occupied and entertained!
- Where did you get your doodle(s)?
- Breeder
- Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?
- Love the personality of Golden Retrievers, and the smaller size and possibility of not shedding (at least maybe not as much!). And everyone who has one said they were the most awesome dog.
Also in my opinion the cutest dogs I've ever seen, but that alone was not my primary reason - I sometimes think if she were less cute I would be better at not giving in to the "sad eyes".
- What are Your Favorite Things to Do With Your Doodles?
- Playing outside, playing fetch, splashing through puddles, running through sprinklers, hiking and swimming in Rock Creek Park
- Does your doodle(s) shed?
- Nope!
- Who grooms your doodle(s)?
- ME! *edit* that lasted a few years... now she goes to the groomer for her moms sanity.
- Favorite Doodle Products?
- Buddy Wash!!! (I even buy it by the gallon now) gets her clean and shiny quickly and easily regardless of how much mud or sand is embedded in her fur
- Relationship Status:
- Single
- Would you be willing to Dog Sit on occasion for other DoodleKisses members? (You are NOT committing to anything by saying yes - you are just saying you might be willing to do this if you were acquainted with the other member and the circumstances were right.)
- Yes

Not the best doodle mom...
Posted on November 3, 2010 at 2:58pm 2 Comments 0 Favorites
I have to admit that I have been too busy with my own blogging to work on Lucie's blog. I am really going to work on that because I think of stories I want to share ALL THE TIME however I "think" that I don't have time to write them down. I am going to make time though from now on. Lucie on the other hand has plenty of time, if only those paws could type...just part of that frustrating communication barrier!
