"When Harry Met Ella"

The puppies are doing great! It is so interesting so see their different personalities coming out. We are not sure who is the "boss" as it varies daily. Harry is much smaller and slighter built than Ella and she at times bullies him. He eventually decides he has had enough and gives a real growl and snip. Ella loves to play and tease, Harry is a lover and snuggler. We picked them up at the kennel at 4pm and Louanne (kennel owner) said to expect them to be exhausted. Harry- yes - so tired he… Continue

Bye Bye Stuart (sob)!

Well it looks like darling little Noah started a trend. And I don't know why, but it seems our little Goldendoodles have something against Stuart Weitzman......Yep, he did it.

Now you have to understand, I cannot and would not afford to buy a pair for myself. But my sister does. And if she finds a shoe that she loves enough, she will buy it even if it is not comfortable. This has been a real benefit to… Continue

not much to update

Mater seems to be doing okay, but tires so easily. His heart rates seems to vary from 50 bpm to a little over 60 bpm. We'll get him back to the vet for more investigation after the holiday weekend.

Reassurance, Please?

We just came home from Pre- Spaying exam at our vet's office. ( Charlie's appointment date is Thursday, May 28th, she will be 5 1/2 months old)

We have been going to Dr. Sweeny for a about 14 years now with my older dog, and I do trust him.

And this is why I chose to have this done by him rather than at the local low cost spay clinic.

But I am just so anxious and fearful of what could go wrong!!

So, please... big girls' moms out there, would you please tell me about… Continue

Mater's health

For everyone we talked to last night, I wanted to let you know that Mater's blood tests came back excellent. Everything looks exactly as it should. We still have some concern about the slow heartbeat. When I checked him this morning it was only about 45 bpm, much lower than the 60 bpm that is considered the low average for a dog his size. It's really hard to find his pulse, which doesn't help us. His heartbeat also seemed quite irregular, as Tom had experienced the other day when he was… Continue

It's Official! I'm a Breeder!!!

I've tossed this idea around a lot...not sure if the timing was right, etc. Was I ready? Could Clark handle it? Is there really a need for another breeder? What generation I should I breed? You know the usual issues.

But having passed some critical milestones, I wanted to share that it's now official...

Who's ready for some photos of my new 13 week old addition?

Are you?

Totally… Continue

We are new doddle parents!!!!! HOORAY!!! and Bless Diane @ TRINTY DODDLES

Finally, our wait is over and we thank the angel that made this happen Diane Carter from Trinity Doodles. She is a blessing from above. I emailed several breeders and only a few responded to my quest for a doddle. Diane and I emailed many times then spoke on the phone. We came to an agreement that we would be guardian parents and that would work for both of us. Last Friday we went to see the doodles and we fell in love with Zara, and Diane agreed that we would be a good fit for her.. Diane's… Continue

Meet Toka

We visited Toka today and we just got back about an hour ago. I had to share the pictures we took because he is getting cuter by the week! Our friend Tim came with us and he fell in love with the Goldendoodles—I wouldn't be surprised if he adopts one in the next few months. Kai absolutely loved the puppies! After a few minutes of being reserved he opened up and couldn't get enough of them. He's been talking about his Toka since we left. Three more weeks and he'll be in our arms! We miss him… Continue

Certified Pre-Owned Doodles?

About 18 months ago, I was in the market for a new vehicle. I had been driving Maximas for 15 years, and was tired of getting stuck and skidding through the Chicago winters. I wanted AWD. I started looking for a smallish, car-based SUV, otherwise known as a "crossover." I wanted a 6-cylinder engine, a sun-roof and heated seats, with good lumbar support for the driver. Because I have worked part-time for an auto-repair shop for years, I knew which makes were the most reliable. I really wanted a… Continue

We're taking the plunge!

We met Toka when he was only two weeks old. Here he is in the hands of his breeder Kerry.

When I called Kerry and inquired about a Goldendoodle I explained to her what we were looking for and she picked out this little guy from the litter. We went to see him a few days later and I fell in love! He was the smallest boy with a slightly darker curly coat.… Continue

Hello, my name is Trouble...

You know, all together I have a pretty well behaved dog. I can't complain! But last night... MAN... did he make me mad!

I had a dentist appointment yesterday so I got to leave work around 2:30... well I arrived home about 30 minutes early that evening because of this. I walked in the door and could tell that Dan was still asleep since he works 3rds as a police officer. I walked into the den area where we keep Remington's crate thinking that I was going to see my beautiful boy looking… Continue
