So this morning I let Tara out to do her "business" and it was raining. She ran out and did a quick number one and then a quick number 2 and dashed back into the house. However, instead of settling in as she normally does for her morning nap, she starting running around the house looking behind her like she had the Hounds of Hell on her tail!!  Then she would freeze and stare at me with wild, pleading eyes only to take off running again. 

All I could think of was oh, oh, a…

In this day and age, when it seems that everyone is fighting, two women came together right here on Doodlekisses. Recently, Donna (Donna K & Quincy) posted a discussion called Limericks Anyone?  I have to say, this was one of my favorite discussions and I went to bed giggling almost every night. What caused me to giggle? Well, I found out there is another member on DK that has the same sense of humor and competitive spirit (maybe even, some would say,…

It's hard to believe it has only been a year since we brought our big red doodle dog home.  Our lives are so much fuller, not only with Clifford but with all of the people we've met through DK and DRC and then the November addition of Clifford's brother, Little Dood.

Today is all about Clifford, which means the day will be filled with playtime and maybe a few extra treats.  And I promised I wouldn't make him wear any goofy hats or clothes since he insists he is a naked doodle…

The look on her face is quizzical.  What in the world are we doing?  No furniture, no pictures,  everything smells funny.  Where is everyone??

Everything is out of whack!  For Shelby, she has only had one home and is used to the family routine.  We are remodeling our home to put on the market so we can move back to Oklahoma after school is out.

She looks so sad and it just breaks my heart.  This isnt how she really is...

She isnt ready for change but definitely wants to…

Preparing for a new puppy has churned up lots of memories of past puppies and other animals that I have shared my life with so far.  My Maltese Terrier Snowy came to me in 2007, in a most unusual way.  In the Summer of 2007 my ex husband  and I sent our yourngest daughter to her cousins in Vancouver for the holidays.  Chloe who was 14 at the time spent three weeks in Summer Camp in the USA and returned to Vancouver to spend a few days with my Mum.  Precious Grandma/Grandaughter time.…

We took some time out yestereday to enjoy the almost spring like weather and hit the park.  We walked and played for about 2 1/2 hours.  We had a blast...as you will see!…

These sweet little guys came to us from Durham, NC. A lady there had an “oops” breeding between her 5 year old Goldendoodle girl and her male Golden Retriever and ‘lo and behold 63+/- days later 9 beautiful Goldendoodle puppies were born. The lady didn’t really want the hassle of trying to find homes for all the cuties. To make a long story short, DRC now has eight 8 week old Goldendoodle babies in our program. These cuties are being fostered in pairs by DRC volunteers. These 4 are being…

On Thursday morning Bitser met his forever family. Jim and Terri drove over 7 hours from Louisville, KY to bring this sweet boy into their family. Bitser seemed immediately attached to Jim. After a bit of play in our local dog park, Mr. Bits hopped into Jim and Terri's car like he had always been with them.

I have to admit I had some trouble sleeping…

I stumbled across some Photoshop fun DS and I had last summer.

He was telling me one day that if he could, he would take down a giant bionical or any other creature that might try to harm me (Is he not the sweetest? My little hero). Anyway, I got the idea to give him his wish and at the same time, give us a BIG laugh.  I hope you enjoy it too.…

I think Tacky has been a little jealous of the 1:1 time I have been spending with Lady Peri. We are taking an advanced obedience class and training for the Canine Good Citizen test.  I have had to eliminate all treats from Taquito's diet (kidneys flaring up again), so when I am training Peri, he just follows us around acting so sad.  Poor guy. But you know I am giving him lots of individual attention! 

Sooo, I was singing this morning, making up songs as usual and this one…

May your house always be too small to hold

all of your friends and your doodles

For all of you that followed Beemer's story, I though you deserved an update.  It is with great pride that I am able to tell you he is "perfect".  He run's like the wind, jumps like a rabbit and even dances on his hind legs.  It is hard to believe it has just been one year since the second hip was corrected.  The whole process was quite a challenge, but worth every ounce of energy it took.  Everyday he brings us such joy and our hearts swell every time he snuggles with us and ever so gently…

Hey Doods and Doodettes....Guinness and Murphy hope that you have a FANTASTIC day!  Remember PARTY, PARTY, PARTY!!!!!!
