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 female chocolate labradoodle F1. her name is cali & my daughter rescued her from a tennessee breeder. she flew cross country w/us to CA the first time we met her. my daughter was too busy w/school & career to care for her. we have 2 cats. both adopted us, and cali LOVES the male one. they groom each other & sleep side-by-side.
Where did you get your doodle(s)?
Rescue
Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?
my daughter fell in love w/her. she did LOTS of research on doodles. now that i've had one in my life, i don't think i'd be able to get another breed, ever.
What are Your Favorite Things to Do With Your Doodles?
we walk to the park daily. it's a 35-40 min. walk &she makes sure we DO it, EVERYDAY! she keeps us exercising as well as laughing, all the time. they are SO smart, she looks at me when i talk & begins to understand the words i say. not only sit, stay, etc. she knows walk, park, outside, eat, up the hill or down to the park. she loves me unconditionally. if i go out for a min. or an hr. she is on her back legs jumping & barking hello to me when i return. they are very funny & fun.
Does your doodle(s) shed?
Yes!
Who grooms your doodle(s)?
we do. if we brush her often enough, it keeps the shedding down. we bathe & trim her every 3 months or so.
Favorite Doodle Products?
she eats iams lamb & rice. she has a few squeaky toys. she plays fairly gentle w/them. she likes to make them squeak, but she doesn't chew them up. she shakes her "little man" like crazy in her mouth. she'll take the toys outside & fetch a little, but brings them inside w/coaxing from us. she doesn't want to fetch balls, but LOVES to swim.

Hi Jeni ~ I love the chocolate doodles. We have 2 doodles - Charlie who is 2 and Beau who was 5 months yesterday. They have the same sire, but different mothers!
