Murphy

Murphy is almost 8mths old in this picture, as you can tell he loves to be outside running and getting dirty, he is definitely an outside dog, he loves to go for walks and loves to play with other dogs and is very social!

He is a wonderful part of our family, he is very loving and loves to give lots of kisses, I could write a book on all his positive qualities, he is one of a kind! I will keep you posted on how he's doing,

Thanks again for giving us such a GREAT dog!!

Jen and David

 

  KELSEY

What can we say???

Our whole family is just soo in love with this dog. She loves to be outside, she loves walks, she loves to play fetch, and she just loves everything!!! She loves each and every member of our family but she certainly has a soft spot for her master. The affection that this dog shows us is beyond words but I think this picture captures the absolute LOVE she has for her master.

When she wants to go for a walk, all she has to do is look at us a certain way and we know exactly what she's asking for. Kelsey is, without a doubt, the light of our family's life. 10 months old today!!! And we love her more and more every day!

Lucy's

  Hi Helen,

Thought we'd update you on Lucy's progress.  She now weighs 20 pounds.  She loves being outside, even in the snow and rain.  Everyone thinks she is adorable.  She has learned basic commands.  We haven't started puppy school yet but we are looking into it.  She loved riding into the forest on the back of the ATV.  She was our mascot for our son's hockey team this winter. our son's hockey team this winter. 

Toby

  Hi Helen,

All is well with Toby. He is now 10 months and thriving. He is playful and energetic, but very gentle. I will attach some photos. We are spending our April vacation at home to spend time with our family, including Toby.

Charley

  Hi Helen,

My kids are really loving their new puppy. He is doing so good. He is happy and runs around like crazy but also has some nice quiet times and is starting to behave very well. He is doing obedience training and I cannot believe how smart this type of dog is. He catches on really quick. I have been on your website recently and it looks great. I hope your new puppies are doing well. I wanted to send you some photos of Charley so you can see how big he has gotten. He is doing really well and I am really happy with his fur colour. I never thought to get a red one. These photos were taken in March. I will send you more as he gets older.
Take Care
Enjoy the photos.

Riley

 Riley is now 4 and a half months.  He has passed puppy school with flying colours, and we start intermediate this Sunday.  The trainer thinks he is one of the smartest dogs she's ever trained.  Though she does not think this of all doodles bred by certain other breeders.  We keep getting compliments on him and recommend you.   How many were in his litter? Did his sister get a nice home? Would you like us to keep sending you his photos and info on Riley?    My allergy reaction is minimal so far, but I need to take certain precautions.  He is full of energy. We love him dearly.

  Sincerely, Kathleen & Muriel

 

Riley
Dear Helen,
 
We are having a ball with Riley.  He is very smart and has graduated from three obedience classes already and we will start advanced next week.  My allergies are OK after all.  He is one of your litter from Cody and Jenny December 22nd 2004. Here are a few photos in our backyard of him helping us water the garden.  He loves water and digging.  He has lots of energy, and loves to play with everyone.  He has the Life of Riley. I think he is a good candidate to be a therapy dog.  We'll pursue this in time.  We've looked at your website and see that  you are very busy.  Keep up the great work.  We recommend you to others for their doodles.  Sincerely, Kathleen,  Muriel & Riley
 

 

MAGGEE

 Hi Helen,
Sending some recent pictures of our Maggee. She is now 6 months old and
weighs 40 lbs. She is attending obedience school and doing quite well. she
is very smart but also a little stubborn

SACAYA

 Hello,

My name is Candice and my partner and I got a dog from you a few months ago.  She is the daughter of Cody and Belle and I thought that I would write you and give you a quick update on her.  She is doing amazing.  She has been a great addition to our family.  We named her Sacaya and I can't believe how smart she is.  She was house trained very fast and now at 5 months she already knows sit, lie down, stay and shake a paw.  She is also so friendly and loveable.  She loves to snuggle up to us.  We get many people stopping us on our walks to tell us how cute and well trained she is and how much she looks like a big teddy bear.  I have sent you a few photos of her.  The last one is her after taking her very first swim at a cottage.  Anyway I hope you enjoy them.  Thank you again so much for Sacaya.  I don't know what I would do without her.  I hope that you and all of your family are doing well.

IRIS

Hi Helen,

I thought you might want to see a few pictures of me.  By now I am 10 weeks old and quite enterprising - as you can see.  I love to play at the lake, I was swimming at the first attempt, I can climb stair up and down, heel, sit and come on command.  Yesterday I started puppy class, and did quite well.  And of course I am growing, learning and enjoying life.

MISSY

Helen,

We recently celebrated our puppies birthday. We received one of your early June 2004 puppies. We thought that you might want to see what they look like now.  In case you don't remember, we received a female pup (Missy) and our friends received a male pup (Snicker). We drove together to pick them up last August.

We got together over the Memorial Day weekend to celebrate their birthdays. Missy is about 50 pounds. Snicker is around 80 pounds.

Missy has brought much joy into our lives. Thank you so much.

Mellow at 2 months

Hi Helen
Here are a few more pics of our Mellow. She continues to grow and steal our hearts. She has doubled her weight in almost 3 weeks. Housebreaking is going well and she knows how to sit, shake a paw and lay down. We are working on the nipping now, when she gets over excited she get s a bit carried away but I guess that's to be expected as she is just a baby. She has adjusted splendidly to our family, can't say the same about our cat, she still is not too sure about Mellow. Thanks again for providing us with our girl, we do love her. Take care,
The Runnings

   

Mellow at 4 months

Mellow on her first birthday

Hi Helen,

Just wanted to give you an update on Mellow. She is thriving and has become a steadfast part of our family.  She will be 16 weeks old this Saturday and is growing quite nicely. Her looks are changing a bit. She is housebroken has been for about 3 or 4 weeks).

Sleeps through the night and is learning to Heel on our walks.  She is definitely a very intelligent dog, learning quickly.  Mellow is a heart stealer, everyone just falls in love with her. We have had her at large family functions at the cottage, everyone comments on her mellow disposition.  We are doing lots of advertising for you, I am sure  though that these lovable pups do the job for you. We couldn't be more pleased with our newest family member. Although we are anxious for those razor sharp baby teeth to  fall out. I have noticed that they are getting lose.  She loves to be outside here and at our cottage and has proven to be quite the blueberry and raspberry picker.  Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to experience the wonders of owning a "doodle". I can assure you that many people in Sault Ste. Marie now are familiar with the breed.  As a matter of fact our Vet. is quite interested and I did give him your website.  I will attach a few new pics for you.

Sincerely,

Cathy, Dave and Emma 

 

Hi Helen,
We wanted to give you a quick update on Mellow on her first birthday. She continues to be a source of joy for us. She is smart, so friendly and quick to steal people's hearts. Mellow is a good dog, she learns fast and loves to play outdoors. She is a special part of our family. We even have had people stop us on the street to enquire about her. One lady even came out of her house to ask what kind of dog she was. Thanks so much.

Mellow at 6 months
Hi Helen,
Just a quick update on Mellow.  She turns 6 months this weekend and is having "the operation" on Thursday.
She is a beauty.  We have had 6 private obedience lessons and our trainer could not believe how smart she is.
Mellow learns very quickly.  She is so social, loving everyone she meets.  She also gets along with all the dogs she
has met.  She has become a very focal part of our family. We love her dearly.  She loves to be outside and has quite
the taste for fresh tomatoes which she has taken to picking on her own. She's proven to be quite the berry picker also.
I have attached a couple of photos, hopefully you receive them okay. Thanks again for our Mellow. Take care.

Yankee

 "Yankee" is doing great. I have enclosed a pic for the website. He is 4 1/2 months old in this picture and is doing amazing in puppy class. He is adorable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is an update on Yankee’s progress.  He is 11 months old in this picture, and has turned into a great dog.  He is doing pet therapy at the senior homes.  He was born to do this kind of work.   Obedience training is going well.  He is almost ready for off leash training now.  My dobe has tried to teach him to be a guard dog.  However, he barks, but can’t stop wagging his tail and “smiles” when someone comes.  We enjoy him immensely!

Jasper

 Hi Helen,
We bought a dog from you this June.  He was the male dog who was supposed
to go to the US but couldn't be shipped due to high temperatures.  We
named him Jasper.  Apart from eating a lot of branches outside :), he's
doing very well, loves to be around people and other dogs, great
temperament, can get very exited at times, hasn't chewed anything in our
house, completely trained to do his duties outside, we're even able to now
leave in alone in the house for a few hours and he just sits by the front
window looking outside (he loves to do that) while we're gone.  Wherever
we go, we always get asked where we got him and I've referred people to you
a few times.  I'm completely satisfied with him and happy we got him.
I've attached two pictures that you can use as you like, he was a about 5
months old in those pics (he's now 7 months old).

Hi Helen:
 
I just thought I would send you a quick e-mail to give you an update on Dylan (and Charlie).  We have had them for about one month now and they are doing great.  They are both in obedience and are doing very well, they are so smart (especially Dylan).  They have really come out of their shells and are the most friendly, outgoing pups, they love everyone kids, adults, cats, and other dogs.  I have attached a couple of pictures of Dylan.
 
Thanks again I am very happy with him!!

Buster
Helen:
 
Great pics.  I hope that all is well.  Buster continues to be doing terrific.  Here are a couple of pics from the summer.
 
By the way, he and Joey (sold to the Bernsteins from a litter 9 months after Busters) are just the best of friends and have great play dates.

 

   

Maggee

 Hi Helen,

It's been almost a year since we first picked up our Maggee and she is
doing great. She is the most loving pup. Almost everytime we go for our
walks, someone will stop and ask what type of dog she is. She is so
beautiful.
Thank you for breeding such wonderful pets.
   

Katie

 Hi Helen. A long overdue note to let you know how Katie is doing. Since we picked Katie up on August 27, she has become a wonderful part of our family. She did so well on the drive to Sudbury, sleeping between my two daughters the whole way.

Katie has had all of her shots and was spayed two weeks ago. She did very well and has bounced right back. There is a male 1 yr. old Golden Retriever that lives next door and he and Katie have become best of friends.

Katie is over 50 pounds now and is almost as tall as the Retriever next door. She is house and crate trained and has lots of room to run around and explore. We live on a lake and she really enjoyed swimming this past summer as well as the odd ride on our boat.

Katie loves chasing Frisbees and her basketball. She walks the girls to the bus stop every morning and afternoon. We also have a hamster and Katie is so gentle. He can roll around the family room in his ball and she doesn’t even react when he rolls right into her when she’s lying on the floor.

Thank you so much for bringing us together with Katie. We have all fallen in love with her and look forward to many years of companionship with our newest member of the family.

Penny

 Dear Helen,
Finally I have a few minutes to send you a photo of our sweet little" not so little anymore" girl. She is the sweetest thing on the planet. Her disposition is almost angelic. She is very social and gets lots of practise as our caretaker has 3 dogs that come to work with him everyday. Penny sits and waits for them to arrive each morning. We love her dearly. She is fully house trained, thanks to your good piece of advice and we are enjoying her every single day. Our vet absolutely loves her and when we have to kennel her, she sleeps in their house because their 8 year-old son adores her.
She travels very well in the vehicles so she really doesn't stay at home very much.
Take Care and we will keep in touch.

Casey

Hi Helen,

 Here are a few pictures of Casey. He is doing well. Today he gave me a clear sign that he needed to go outside to poo and pee. I was so proud. He was a superstar today. I am getting more comfortable with him. Thanks again.

 David Spinner

Hi Helen,

I am writing to you to say that I am doing just great in my new home. David and Jen have spoiled me rotten – but hey who am I to argue. They love petting me, and cuddling with me everyday – who knew I would get so much love and attention. Since I last wrote I learned that pee and poo should only happen outside, but hey sometimes mommy and daddy just don’t listen and accidents happen. David comes home everyday to walk me at lunchtime and then feeds me a nice meal…but I have heard some rumblings that lunch will no longer happen after next week – don’t know if I am going to like that. I think I have a bit of cold now, but that does not stop me from running, eating things I shouldn’t be (yes I do that, I had a little run in with some fish that I took out of the garbage) Mommy and daddy were not happy about that one – I threw up everywhere.

 This lady has started coming over to the house once a week and makes mommy and daddy do things with me and we do it over and over and over – I keep getting treats. I learned to walk properly and not run ahead – when I do that, I have to turn around and start over again…I get tired of doing it sometimes and then I stop listening. Mommy and dad say sit and I sit…they think I am so smart. I also lift my paw when they say “gimme 5” that is pretty cool – I get treats for that too.

 One of my favourite things is when daddy comes home from work at the end of the day and takes me to the park. I pull him so hard right to the car and I sit down until he opens the car door. He thinks this is so funny. I get to play with all my friends. I especially love Molly. She’s really big (175 lbs) and cuddly and she let’s me jump on her head and belly (see picture). I have a blast! I also love chasing after all the other big dogs but they put me in my place if I am acting like a pest.

 I also love when mommy brushes my teeth with this yummy beef flavoured stuff sometimes I do it myself (see picture). My coat is always brushed so that I look great! I must say that I’m pretty darn cute!

 Casey

 

Hi Helen,

I just wanted to let you know that David and Jen are taking very good care
of me. A couple of weeks ago they left me at this place for an entire day
and when they came to pick me up, I had to wear this silly cone on my
head...Not sure what they did to me there, but something seems to be
missing. After that David did not take me to the dog park like he used to,
and we only went for short walks, I don't know why. Then one morning we
went back to that place and this lady took a thread out from my underside.
It did not hurt one bit, I was such a brave pup! Then we went on this car
ride and I was left at this place that had 3 large yards for me to run
in...wow it was like heaven. There were other dogs there too, but I was by
far the cutest and smartest! I did not see mommy or daddy for a whole week
and I missed them, but they came back all tanned, they look good! I was
happy to see them again. Now we go to the dog run again, everyday and I see
all my friends. Daddy says I weigh at least 45 lbs now...I am getting to be
a big boy.

That is all for now, hope you guys are doing well. Here is a new picture of
me taken a few weeks ago. I think it is pretty fun that I stuck my tongue
out at the camera.

Write to you soon.

Casey
 

HI Helen,

I  have to just keep updating you on our wonderful puppy. Casey is now
almost 10 months old, weighing in at a svelt 60lbs. He is doing so well, he
just loves playing outside with his pals, and going swimming. We just took
him to the Paw  House Inn in Vermont. A great B&B that your dog sleeps in
your room with you, there is a great dog run with all sorts of Agility
exercises, he particularly liked the tunnel and the climbing toy. He is
just the best puppy, we get stopped everywhere we go, they love his colour
and his face. Here is a picture from our recent trip.
 

   

Scooter
Helen & George:
 
Here is a more recent picture of Scooter (Buddy). He is doing well and even learning to go to the door when he wants to go outside. He loves to play fetch with his balls.
 
Regards,
Carol, George, Brent, Molly & Scooter.

 

   

Jasper & Dodger

Hi Helen:

 We adopted a Golden Doodle (Jasper) and a Shih Poo (Dodger) from you in the summer of 2004.  They are both beautiful dogs, doing very well and they have become an integral part of our family life. They are also inseparable buddies and they play with each other until they exhaust themselves.

 Thanks for two beautiful dogs!

Ripley

 Just wanted you to know that Ripley is settling in well. I took some pictures of him and thought I would enclose them for your gallery if you want to use them.
