ALL PUPPIES HAVE BEEN ADOPTED! (8/29/21)

Our next litter is expected the first weekend of October.  They will be ready to go to their new homes in early December - an early Christmas present??

The puppies will be "medium" sized F1B Goldendoodles. That means the puppies will grow to about 40-50 pounds. This is our first non-mini sized litter in a while - and they should be beautiful!

Mom: Lady - Lady is a wonderful dog who lives with an amazing family. She is part of our Guardian Home program, and this will be her final litter.




This will give a good idea of her size.

Not sure who looks more pregnant...

Dad: Murf - We contracted with the owner of amazing looking guy so Lady's puppies would be stunning! Murf is almost the exact same size and weight as Lady.





Stay tuned!

Two Girls Available! Act Fast! These Will Go Quickly! (8/24)

We have two adorable puppies available. Both girls are F1B mini-goldendoodles, and both of them are beautiful and playful!

People often ask, "What's wrong with them? Why weren't they chosen sooner?"

I remind people it is like choosing ice cream flavors at a store. You can only take home one container. Do you choose Chocolate chip? Mint chocolate chip? Cookies and cream? Salted Caramel? Cookie dough? How can a person just pick one???

For me, it's a tough call, and I stand in the aisle and look at the options for long enough that employees start to be concerned.

Imagine how much harder it is with puppies? 

The Top Ten Comments I Hear At Puppy Selections:

  1. "I wish I could take them all!"
  2. "How in the world can I choose?"
  3. "They all look the same!"
  4. "They are ALL so adorable!"
  5. "No kids, we can't take more than one"
  6. "We'll vote on which one we adopt" - followed by at least one parent, and all of the kids, upset with the results of the vote.
  7. "Ewww... he just went to the bathroom!"
  8. "I bet you have a hard time saying goodbye to these puppies..."
  9. "Which one is Miss Blue, again?"
  10. "Well, our son wants to call it 'Viper' and our daughter likes the name 'Rose', so we're still deciding"

Followed by, "Mom! We have to take this one, because it fell asleep in my lap!"

Different people have different criteria in selecting, but it does often come down to which puppy happened to be tired and fell asleep in someone's lap. When you know how well these puppies have been raised, and cared for, and loved on, you would know - like I do - there isn't a bad choice at all.

 Let me know, soon, if you would like to come visit and play with the puppies. Even if you decide you aren't ready to adopt one, every person that plays with the puppies makes them EVEN MORE socialized - and that's a good thing!

Here a few pictures of Miss Black: She loves to get belly rubs!!! She is Biscuit's puppy and born on 6/27.





And Miss Blue: She loves to run and play, and she also loves to sleep in laps! She is Penny's puppy and was born on 6/17. She has pretty patches of white on her chest and nose.

Puppy Update - and NEW pictures! (8/19)

When this coming weekend settles, I believe we will only have a couple of girls remaining. I'll sort it all out on Sunday.

Here are some new pictures of the cuties!

Biscuit's Puppies (8 weeks old on 8/22)

Miss Green: ADOPTED  "could someone trim the hair in my eyes, please?"

She is playful and a cuddler, but possibly a bit shy around new experiences. 





 Mr. Blue: ADOPTED The single boy in the litter. He's playful and fun loving - and adorable!



 Miss Orange: RESERVED In spite of how I seem to be holding her, she was very calm and loving. She was fascinated by the camera and all that we were doing.




 Miss Black: It was hard to hold her - all she wanted to do was roll up in a ball like an armadillo. I tried to stretch her out so you could see how beautiful she is. She feels like a super soft teddy bear.




 
Miss Yellow ADOPTED She is an absolute doll! Great temperament. Loves to run and have fun, and also likes to be right by your side.



Penny's Puppies (9 weeks old on 8/22)

There are two girls left: Miss Yellow and Miss Blue. I'm pretty sure Miss Yellow will be going home this weekend, and hopefully Miss Blue too! These are from Penny, and therefore they throw a little more white, and their noses are more brown.

 Miss Blue: A very peaceful and quiet, loving puppy. She's 100% puppy; she loves to run, but she is just as happy to snuggle up and relax.





Miss Yellow: RESERVED She is adventurous!She has yet to see something she didn't want to explore. She has adorable white paws and chest. She is beautiful!





Half a growl - "Let me go!"

Our wonderful Biscuit gave birth to 4 girls and 1 boy on June 27th. Biscuit is an F1 Mini-Goldendoodle who lives in a nearby Guardian Home with dear friends of ours, and also our retired "Lilly".

Laying low - where all the food drops!

The day before her haircut!

Lilly and Biscuit - with her hair long

Toby (AKC Miniature Poodle) weighs about 20 pounds and Biscuit (F1 Mini-Goldendoodle) weighs about 22. 

These puppies have black points (nose, paws, and around eyes) and are absolutely gorgeous and love to snuggle. The should grow to about 20-25 pounds - although this is Biscuit's first litter, we are making our best approximation. 

Mr. Blue (Collar): Cute, cuddly, and very observant. Loves to watch what is going on around him.


Miss Yellow: Straighter coat, and very playful


Miss Orange: RESERVED The heart stopper. She is just beautiful and friendly.


Miss Green: A curly coat and some deep snuggles!
