Non-ALAA Breeders

Started this discussion. Last reply by Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle Feb 22, 2014. 18 Replies 0 Favorites

We came across a breeder online who is downsizing, meaning selling adult AL breeder dogs anywhere from $500-$1000. Upon visiting this breeder, the conditions were less than desirable and then we…Continue

Does anyone know if you should or shouldn't buy from a breeder who's new litter of puppies all ended up with parvo? Someone at our local healthy pet store today told me puppies who got parvo are…Continue

Profile Information

About Me:: For work, I help find and fill gaps in people's retirement plans. I have been helping hundreds of Colorado residents over the last 8+ years create a long term care program designed to take the burden off their children and other family members. As a Medicare expert, I also help people turing 65 choose the right Medicare Supplement or Medicare Advantage plan to enroll in.

The latest is ObamaCare (Affordable Care Act) which everyone has now heard about but may still be quite confused how it works. I assist these individuals with applying for health insurance online through Connect for Health Colorado. Should they qualify for a subsidy due to their low income, I can assist them in choosing the appropriate health insurance plan. So, if you need help...drop me a line. We can get our Doodles together why we shop online for health insurance...Ha!

What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!: Meet Forest, an Australian Labradoodle, the newest addition to our family. At 9 months old, he has quite a few tricks under his paws. Forest will soon be trained in "The Reading Education Assistance Dogs" (R.E.A.D.) program. R.E.A.D. is a program that utilizes therapy animals to help kids improve their reading and communication skills and also teaches them to love books and reading.

Where did you get your doodle(s)?: Breeder

Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?: I chose a doodle because they are really smart dogs and can be trained to do just about anything. They are also great therapy dogs and that's what I want to get into as it's very rewarding.

What are Your Favorite Things to Do With Your Doodles?: Hiking, running, playing with other Doodles, riding in the car, visiting healthy pet stores and "do it yourself" dog washes

Does your doodle(s) shed?: Nope!

Who grooms your doodle(s)?: Mary Louise Powell, Longmont, Colorado

Favorite Doodle Products?: Chris Christensen grooming products: brushes, coat conditioners, shampoos, etc.

Relationship Status:: Married

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

When you're ready, just "add a discussion" in the Food Group with the info and we can figure out what food might work for you!

There are many groups that you can join. For example, there are groups for grooming, nutrition, health/medical, types of doodles, puppy groups etc. Look at the top of your page and click on Groups - check them out. Enjoy!

Thanks for the tips on breeders. It's really nice to know of reputable breeders when we get ready to take the puppy plunge!

I was curious if you belonged to the Doodles, Poodles, and friends romp group that meets in Boulder. If not, you should check it out. It's a lot of fun! We meet at a couple of dog parks in Boulder when the weather warms up. The gal that started the group Lisa, is also a member here. She's out of state during the winter so the meetups will start up again when it gets nice. It's so cute to see all the Poodles and Doodles playing. You can check it out on Facebook or on Meetup. If you already attend, hopefully we'll see you there!

At 7:46pm on March 8, 2013, Lisa O. said…: Hi Joy,

So sorry for your loss. We had to put our husky down recently as well. We do still have our Doodle though. I noticed you are from Colorado as we are. We live in Brighton. We are thinking about adding another Doodle to the family as well. I am rather confused where to look here. I was wondering if you would mind me asking what breeder you are considering. I just don't know where to start looking.

Thanks,

Lisa and Oliver

Thanks for the friend request. I'm anxious to see your new pup this summer. In the mean time you have plenty of time to dive into all the awesome stuff on DK! And you'll need months for that. haha.
