Puppy Spa Day - 6 Weeks Old

Today was a day our kids invited friends from school to come over and play with the puppies and wash them, and give them "spa treatments". It is always a fun day. All the puppies get washed and cleaned in the sink, towel dried, blow-dried, hugged and squeezed. A perfect day!

Here's a quick update for those of you who are "just tuning in" now:
LITTER UPDATE: 
These puppies are F1b Goldendoodles and will grow to be medium-sized (about 45 pounds). The mom is Penelope (an F1 Goldendoodle) and dad is Oliver (our favorite AKC Standard Poodle). This will be their second litter. Both Penelope and Oliver weigh about 45 pounds.

We are now accepting deposits ($250) to reserve one of these puppies. The puppies are scheduled for their Vet check on Friday, November 15th and will be ready to go to their new homes after that.

We currently have 2 boys and 2 girls available.

MR. RED (RESERVED): This precious little guy is just a show-stopper! He has a whole-bunch of white on his face and he currently has a pink speckled nose. His nose will probably darken over time - it's not a bad thing if it doesn't - but he is almost always the first one people pick up and want to hold.








Miss BLACK (Available): She is the darkest and calmest of the girls. She has a beautiful dark coat and loves to be held and get belly rubs.







Mr. Blue: (AVAILABLE): I call him "Bolt" because he has a little bolt of white on top of his head. He's one of my favorites in this litter. He loves to snuggle - and also loves to grab toys from his siblings and run off with them. He's a sweetheart!







Miss Yellow (RESERVED): She has an adorable white chest and is fun to play with. At first, she wasn't sure of the bath, but she enjoyed it once she got used to it.

While I was doing most of the washing, I asked my 13 year-old son to take pictures. It was at this point in the day that he first "lost focus" - or at least his pictures did. Below are the only 2 pictures of Miss Yellow that were clear enough to post. Sorry! I'll get some others soon.




Miss Orange (AVAILABLE): She has a dark brown coat that will turn even more curly as she ages. (Most puppies get their final coats around 9-12 months of age). She loves to wrestle with her brothers and sisters - and play with their ears, too! If you have other dogs in your family, she would fit right in! She has yet to meet a dog she didn't want to platy with. (We socialize the puppies with our family dogs too)




I know it's blurry, but how can you NOT put this picture in? She was having so much fun!



Mr. Green: (AVAILABLE): This cutie is a shy little guy that loves to snuggle and be close to people. He is definitely the puppy who is most "relaxed" ("chill"?), and he enjoys watching his siblings wrestle before he commits to an "attack".







Mr. Purple (RESERVED): He has a very pretty, curly coat and has a beautiful patch of white fur on his nose/face. He is very relaxed and cuddly.
