Hilarous Meeting

[Richard Crowe]

We are helping Michelle Long by doggie sitting her foster goldendoodle, Bailey, while Michelle is visiting family over the Spring break.  Bailey is an absolutely darling 11-month old female doodle but, we have a four pound 14-week old Maltese puppy that we were a bit concerned about.  We weren't worried that Bailey would do anything to hurt the pup on purpose but, a 30-pound dog could easily hurt a small pup by accident.

 

Not to worry, we introduced the pup to Bailey in our yard and Bailey took one look at the pup, put her tail between her legs and took off running away.  It was hilarous wit that tiny pup chasing the doodle, with the pup wanting to play and the Bailey not wanting anything to do with Sammy.  I wish I had my video camera.

 

Bailey and Sammy are now friends and Bailey is quite gentle with the pup.  Bailey is laying down by my computer desk right now and the pup is climbing all over her.  I just LOVE doodles.  We have had five doodles in our lives, four fosters and Holly.  Every one of the doods has been just great with our little Maltese.

 

Holly and Bailey, of course, get along like they have been raised together.

My Groodle and my maltese play so well together, so funny to watch as the maltese is the dominate female and bosses my big black Groodle, and she's so little and white!

Richard...I just had to drop you a line..crazy just how small this doodle world can be. We're new to DK having found it because we have been looking to adopt. Tonight while pursuing the blogs we saw your post. Dont want to jinx ourselves but we have our application in with DRC of adopt Bailey. We've had our phone interview with Michelle and are (anxiously) awaiting her return from Spring break to continue with the adoption process. She had told us she and her family would be away and Bailey would be with a foster-foster family for the week. Needless to say we were quite tickled to see the post and get newson Bailey. We quickly went to your page to see if by chance there were pics of Bailey, Holly and the little 4 pounder.

THEN in reading about Holly we discovered, as unbelievable as it is, that your Holly and our Hailey both are from Heather's Cheyenne Valley Goldendoodles and Labradoodles. How crazy is that? Didn't see Holly's age. Hailey is 2 and her parents are Jordie and Rocky. It was such a fun discovery. When dishes are done and I get on another computer I'll post more pictures of Hailey and look over all your pictures. (Hummm...Hailey and Bailey; Hailey and Holly...go figure, such a small doodle world.). Warm regards....

Your love for rescues is inspiring! Can't wait to see more pics later!

Pat and Traveler...

You wonder what a four-pound puppy looks like

I posted a picture of four-pound Sammy on my photos.  I will shoot some tomorrow with Sammy and Holly and Bailey...

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

I DO wish you had had your video camera so we could share in the fun. 

[Pat and Traveler]

Awwww...that must have been sooo fun to watch!  I'm trying to picture a four-pound puppy.  Hmmmm...four pounds of butter, stacked...  LOL

[Sherri, Sophie, Winston, & Kitty]

Adorable! Pictures please!!!

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Thanks for doodle-sitting Bailey, I'm so glad she is getting along well with Holly and being gentle with the little ones.

[Traci -Bexter & Maggie]

That sounds so cute!  Oh, how I wish we had a video or pictures!  I love doodles for their friendly nature also.  It seems rare for any doodles to not get along with other dogs, doesn't it?

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

That's a lovely picture you paint, doodles are so gentle and Maltese puppies are so tiny.  I remember a Maltese breeder telling me when we got our first one that these dogs are so easily hurt as they are tiny and gentle too and she was worried about having children with them for that reason.  I salute your amazing kindness to these dogs and for giving them the chance of a happy forever home.
