9 Year Anniversary - Lets see what they are doing now |

Above is Emmi enjoying the snow in Germany! 01/2010
I made this collage for my son’s show and tell. He wanted to bring Kelso inside, but I told him it would be too distracting for the class! I thought you might appreciate seeing how well he’s with his new family. Kelso has been to Denver twice to visit my family and San Diego (he loved splashing in the waves!). Unfortunately he’s finally outgrown the carrier that fits under the airplane seat, so his traveling days are over unless we determine he can fly in the airplane belly without undue stress. He’s so clever and eager to please and he’s is such a lovebug. I can’t tell you how deeply our family has fallen for this guy! I am regularly stopped on the street by passersby asking what breed of dog he is and I have been told by dozens of people that he is the cutest dog they have ever seen. Total strangers ask if they can take photos of him! I am serious when I say that I would hand out your business cards if you sent me some. I can’t thank you enough for choosing this puppy for us! Merry Christmas to you and your family Melissa H Dec 15, 2009
Bailey figures out the best way to exercise in Holland. Happy Birthday Bailey! 1/14/2010
Shylo likes it very much in the snow. It's a pleasure to have such a nice dog. when I'm walking down the street everyone looks at her and they want to know what a labradoodle is. They like the colour of her coat and her coat is very soft. She is very sweet and easy to train. This was the best thing we have ever done. She gives us so much joy and happiness. The kids want to take her even on holiday they can't miss her for two weeks. So our holidays will be different then the other years but we look forward to take shylo with us. greetings Helene and Shylo 01/2010 (In Holland)
Emmi goes to Germany! October 2009 (above)
Krosby's new trick. She taught him to sit down and from a sitting position give her a " High Ten ", and he does it so beautifully and I took a few snaps of her doing it with him and then her congratulating him. He is so smart and here he is in all his glory doing a HIGH TEN ! 2009
Couldn't remember if I sent you these or not...........but a couple of pics of our favorite guy around here, Krosby, at his Graduation from Petsmart. He graduated the top of his class and had fun while doing it. We just left him for 2 weeks while we were up in Canada and we missed him so much. Everyday we would look at each other and say, " I wonder how Krosby is " ? He really is a member of our family now and we love him to bits. Great Dog, and even better friend for us all ! Hope you are all well. The T Family 8/6/09
Thank you both for such a wonderful, easy experience! "Crystal" is home and safe and happy--and the boys were shocked speechless. So funny! Thought I'd send you a few pictures so you'd know all was well. Katie and Steve G. Arizona 8/3/09
Cosmo (Mo) is great! He loves hiking, running around, or just hanging out. he thinks his best friend is Benson, (who is almost 6 and is still the best dog in the world) and follows him everywhere. We have been in utah with our cousins, and the pictures are of the dogs here with us. We love our labradoodles and we'll send more pics soon! Thanks! Ali K Family 7-2009 Arizona
I thought it was time that I updated you on Gracie....she is the love of Kyle's life. I've never seen anything like it...we love her to death. She does like to run around the neighborhood but she is very well known in our neighborhood, so she always seems to be escorted home. I attached a recent picture :) Heather 4/14/09
Krosby he is the best dog ever Sheila and we love him to bits. Today is the first day we had rain since he arrived and he's too funny as he runs in it and then shakes his head and body cause he's wet. He dug his first hole in our backyard today also, URGH ! Oh well, it is what it is eh, he is part LAB and that's what LABS do for fun. I have to tell u he is very smart and learning the rules of the house and potty training so quickly, he wants to please in everyway and loves his treats when he does good. He walks around our neighborhood everyday, twice and is on first name basis with all the neighbors and they all agree he's the CUTEST DOG now in the neighborhood, perhaps even in Arizona, well okay maybe I'm just a bit biast, can ya blame me.
I will send more pics as I take them. I have my new computer now and it's working well and I have all my pics on it and it's all working just great. I hope u enjoy them and I hope u and the family are doing well !
Thanks again for the BEST PUPPY EVER ! We sure do love him !

Hi Sheila! Cosmo is still doing great!! We love him so much!! He's SUPER friendly and curious, always following us around and always willing to play. he really enjoys roughhousing with Benson. Enjoy the pics! We will send more in a few weeks! Thanks! The Ali K & Fam 3/3009 Scottsdale, AZ
Maiya has grown so much in the past
month, she is 15# and 16 inches tall! Her best friend is Max the cat as
well as her human buddy, Elena. She has been very easy to housetrain and
has become very socialized to other four legged creatures as well as the two
legged kind. We take her everywhere and people just "ooh and aah" over her
beauty and friendliness. I have attached some pics for you and on the
doodleworld website you can view a very cute video of her and max wrestling.
We purchased a puppy from you several years ago. If I remember correctly, you called him Scooby Doo and we named him Tony (perhaps Anthony, but we call him Tony). I have to tell you Tony is clearly the best dog I have ever owned. We could not be happier with him. I had just returned from a deployment to Kuwait and Iraq and was having a little difficulty adjusting to coming back home. Tony really helped me adjust and has become my best friend. He is actually loved by the whole family and all my kids’ friends. I swear he is like a Big Frat Boy, always looking for the party. Anyway, we are considering getting another pup and I see that Kali will be having pups soon. If so, that might help influence our decision process. We were thinking of getting a female (fixed like Tony) to add to our family and help keep Tony company during the day. Brad F 12/16/08 Washington
Somewhat belatedly, here are some photos of Tux and TJ ! We still love our doodles and regularly tell people to check out your website and your puppies. Tux remains "Mr. Mellow" and TJ has brought much joy to my mother-in-law. Our son, Evan, has gone off to college in Minnesota (Carleton College) and he and I drove there in September with both dogs. So now they've been to college! It'll be fun to see if the Obama family chooses a labradoodle! Robin 11/16/08
Kukui just turned 5 last week (as you know) and we can't believe how fast the time has gone by. We have a son, Brady who is 2.5 and are expecting a baby girl (Kali) in January. Attached are some pictures from the past year. There is an awesome picture of Brady and Kukui I want to send, but can't find it on my computer....so I will keep looking and send it to you. But I included one of the two in the crib. I will try to send updated pictures to you more often....definitely will for x-mas. Lisa, Jason, Brady and Kukui G 10/2008
Onyx is
wonderful lover of a dog, gives great hugs. He is sometimes mellow and
sedate other times high jumping, high energy. Nearly every day I still get
compliments on how beautiful he is, asking what breed he is, he's normal day
to day walk is said to look like a show dogs prance.
Congratulations on 7 years in business! Attached is a photo of Sam (doodle), Richard and Kevin in Long Beach, CA where we live. Our pup, whose parents are Kali & Baron, was born on May 14, 2004. Sam is by far THE most wonderful puppy soul that we could have ever hoped for to come into our lives. The joy of being with him every day is truly a blessing. Thanks again for bring Sam into our lives. Kevin S 10-12-08 Long Beach, CA
Our doodle pup is sure one heck of a character. As soon as he was part of our family, he fit right in. We have twin 10 year old boys, and we know buddy thinks he's the triplet, always playing and hanging out with the boys. Every morning buddy, or buttercup as we sometimes call him, gives us a mouthful of gibberish, like he thinks we understand what he's saying. He's always getting into mischief whether its playing tag with the boys or rummaging through the trash, which is one of his favorite things to do. No matter how much trouble he gets into, he always gives us a "Buddy" hug and as soon as you see those great, big, brown puppy eyes, you can't help to forgive him and love him back. Buddy is more than just our pup, he's one of the kids. :) attached is a picture of our pup! Angela H. 10/10/08 San Mateo, CA
I can't believe we've had Chief for over a year now! He has turned out to be
the most wonderful dog. We get compliments on how cute and well-behaved his
is on pretty much a daily basis. Everyone in our neighborhood knows who he
is and walks by our house to try to catch a glimpse of him.
Ruby from Pelei and Logan's first litter (born May 14, 2007). She's 22 inches high, and weighs 40 pounds. Her eyes are light brown with green centers. Ruby is very sweet. She loves all people and most dogs, although she does occasionally meet a dog that she doesn't like for some reason. Then she usually barks at the dog. She has a group of around five dog buddies that she regularly plays with in the park across the street from our house. She loves to run and chase, but she does not like to be chased. She loves to fetch balls and sticks, and is very good at catching balls in the air. She's gentle with children, fond of the mail carrier, and hates squirrels, which she still tries to chase at the advanced age of 16 months. Ruby can be a little fearful of new things, but she's also curious and brave, and she does like to quickly investigate something she comes upon that unnerves her. I love Ruby to pieces, of course. As does everyone else who comes into contact with her. She's a great dog. Gary S Portland, OR 10/5/08
Marley
is doing great. He is getting bigger by the day and looks just like Kali his
Mom. He and Max have a great time together but he is now bigger. Come
visit if you deliver any doodles to Jersey it will be like a reunion of when
you brought Marley. Hope that happens so we can see you guys.
here is our favorite pics of benson (huey)! we love him!!! thanks the k family 10/1/08 Arizona
Here are a few pictures of our wonderful Ellie. She is from Molly's litter of 2005. We love her so much!!! Chris S 9/30/08 OREGON

We love our Maggie - best dog I've ever had in over 40 years of owning dogs, without question! She is loving, obedient and wants to be with us all the time - every time we come home she greets us as if she's not seen us in years. Thought you might like a couple of pictures for your files/site. Paul 9/29/08 CA
Our dogs are Rhasta (female) from your Kali-Macho litter of 1-31-06. We received our male from the same litter 8 months later. He was your re-home (Nikko)We named him Kona. They are so much a part of our family and we love them beyond words. Thanks for such awesome dogs!!! Greg & Tammy and family in Phoenix 9/30/08
We have been so pleased with our Labradoodle, Cup of Joe, or Joey. He was born 5-07 and weighs 44#, with a curly tail. He has some white in his coat now which we call "latte." He is a great runner, hunter, and watchdog. People are always commenting on how elegant he looks. Don't hesitate to use me as a reference. Arthur S, MD 9/30/08 OR
Penny is a dream!!!! We have had an incredible time with her, from LA to Alaska! She even lived on the Yukon river for a month with us this summer and ended up being a true hunting dog - I was panicked that she wouldn't eat her dog food and it turns out she was feasting on her own kill - 2000 calorie ground squirrels! She also kept the bear out of camp. She's wonderful and we love her. Jennifer V 9/25/08 CA
Luca has matured to be a wonderful, loving, intelligent and sweet dog. Just like his momma (Nikki) he too gives kisses and if you don't watch out he might catch you with your mouth open. (This is normal for doodles .. eeek but in a good way... LOL) He loves all dogs and just wants to play. His second love is swimming, throw a tennis ball on land or water and there is no stopping him. He is the ideal family dog and as soon as we figure out our permanent living situation he will need a playmate if I can convince my husband. I can't believe he is going to be 3 yrs old next month (Oct 23rd). Keep breeding wonderful dogs! Rosalie L 9/25/08 NJ
Hi Sheila, it was great to hear from you! Liberty and Coco, down in Northern California are doing well. They are almost 3 1/2 years old. Time sure does fly. Attached are some photos of both dogs. Liberty has her special Fourth of July collar on (as we brought her home on the 4th of July, hence her name). I also have a picture of the two dogs together with my son Joshua, as they get to see each other quite often. Except for last year Coco had an adventure of living in London for the year. He is now back here in Greenbrae thank goodness as Libby really missed her brother a lot last year. Unfortunately, the only problem with black dogs is that they are soooo hard to photograph. Next time around we already know we want an apricot doodle. But how we love these dogs. They are truly amazing! So loving and smart! We will touch base when we are ready for puppies again. Not yet though. Enjoy. I still send everyone to you for a true Labradoodle! You are the best. :) Lisa K. 9/25/08 CA
Molly is still awesome. She is finishing puppy obedience class and will move on to intermediate next month. She's very smart (no surprise). She is getting big (over 30 pounds now at 6 months) but still fits in our laps and gets cuter by the day. Everyone who sees her comments that she is beautiful, cute and sweet. We will send some pictures soon. Joy L 9/25/08 OR
Hi Sheila...we purchased our doodle four years ago from you and named her Cheddar...here she is posing for her first portrait!! Yes, that is her smiling!! We love her and she has the sweetest personality!! Judy F 9/26/08 OR
Here are pictures of Big Joe Brown. He was born 10/11/07. We love him so much! He has the sweetest personality, very loving and so smart! Everyone who meets him loves him. Debbie G 9/26/08 OR
Here are pictures of Denali and Fietje. They are doing very, very well.
Fietje has much more Labradoodle, both in coat and temperament, although the
trainer called him a "goof-off" because he likes to play even in training.
He's also a water dog - Denali will only go if encouraged. They play well
with each other and are still a joy! Attached are a couple of pics of Zorro. (EDIT: Ted and Tammie are looking at a new baby Nikki x Story pup) Ted and Tammie OR
Here is our beautiful Kai - he was born January 30, 2006 and you know him as mini-Cooper. He is the BEST dog!! The first two photos were when he was still a puppy. He now weighs around 21 lbs (he's kind of a scrawny guy) but is ready for any adventure as long as he's with us. He's a great hiker and is a good citizen at the beach and walking around our local park where he meets his buddies each morning. He also loves a party. This past April we got a second labradoodle (Kali) and he's very happy having her to play with and has helped tremendously with her training. She thinks the world revolves around him. He has not had his evaluation to be a therapy dog yet, but that is the plan for Kai when he gets a little older. We love him a lot. Heather and Joan 9/27/08 Seattle, WA
Sheila - So, good to hear from you! So, Ruby Doodle turns 1 year on the 11th of next month...we are going to have a birthday party for her, with a doggy cake, gifts, and all...the kids are very excited. She is big and beautiful, mellow, smart, and fun. Her colors were beautiful....until...we realized that she was terribly matted and we took her to the groomers, only to learn that she had to be COMPLETELY shaved! They took off all of her gorgeous dreads and curls...we were SOOOO SAD. They told us that we should have been combing her daily since birth, because her new hair grew in through the same folicles as her original hair and it all tangled and matted (since she can't shed her original hair like normal dogs). We were a bit frustrated, since we were told upon her purchase, that she didn't need to be regularly combed and groomed. So, i guess we learned the hard way :( Now we are combing her religiously, awaiting for her beautiful hair to grow back in :( The only behavioral issues we have are that she likes to chew on the nozzles of our garden hose, and she jumps up on our small children. We feel we can resolve those eventually though. Otherwise she is very well behaved, and cracks us up everyday with her silly antics! She likes to chase her tail, and when she catches it, she bites on it and then continues spinning in cirlcles with it in her mouth...so funny! She also likes to sit on a mound in our yard when it rains, and get soaking wet...she looks like a drowned rat when she does that, but she still won't go sit in her dog house....i think she likes the rain on her face :) Her favorite past-time is running through the sprinkler and playing in the kiddie pool with our 5 yr old daughter. If she is not dripping wet at all times, then she is not happy :) so funny! She loves running on the beach, pulling our 10 yr old son on his skateboard, and rolling around with our cat. Everyone who sees her falls in love with her instantly! I will attach some pictures of her before (and tragically after) her hair shaving last month. I may have to send pics in two emails though, as the files seem to be large for some reason. We have been considering getting her a play buddy... Hope all is well with you....Brooke and Ryan T 9/27/08 (Gearhart, Oregon)
I've attached pictures of my female dogs. The brown standard (Joss) is from Kali and Barron's litter born Dec. 2004 and the black one (molly) is from your october 2005 litter. They are the love of my life. Our family is CRAZY for them. They are perfect in every way and our lives are so full of happiness. It's embarassing what good dogs they are. Friends and family cannot believe us when we gush over how easy they were to train and how obedient and respectful they are. I just love love this breed. Maybe we got lucky? gina r 9/27/08 LA, Cal
I have Harrison (Harry) who came from your Fall 2004 litter. Harry and I are living in Olympia, WA now. Harry has been an awesome dog, much beloved by my extended family and friends as well as of course by me. Thanks,
Kara M and John G - Astro's parents 9/25/08 OR
So good to hear from you. Baxter is just the most wonderful dog! Mike and I trained him as a therapy dog when he was a year old. Mike takes him to nursing homes and hospitals and I take him to schools and libraries where the children read to him. He is such a mush that everyone loves him. Mike and I moved to an active retirement community right outside of Charlotte, NC. Following is an article that we wrote about Baxter that appeared in our community magazine.Regards, Marcelle and Mike 9/30/08 Charlotte, NC |
