Good Morning!
How are you and your family? We're fine here. Ellie
is great!! We had her spay about a month ago and
she is doing very well. She is so beautiful!! We
would be happy to be a reference for you. I attached a
picture of our son and Ellie (this was taken in May)
and one just of Ellie (this was in taken April). I will
e-mail current pictures soon.
Take Care,

Coach is doing very well. He's very healthy and tips
the scales at almost 60 pounds. Since Coach arrived
our family has grown with the addition of a 6 month
old Snorkie named Gadsby and he's quickly become
Coach's best bud. The two of them race around the
backyard for hours and it's a show just watching them
romp. Eventhough Coach is the big boy of the house
he's so gentle with the two smaller dogs and even the
two cats. Audrey, the youngest cat, is Coach's next
best bud. They'll tussle for hours on end.
Coach is very loving and he has to be near people;
he's generally found snuggling up to somebody. He
loves lying under the computer desk whenever
someone is in the office and being in the livingroom
when the family is gathered there. He sleeps on his
doggie cushion next to our bed.
He's a man's dog for sure though. If he hears the front
door open he knows it's time to GO for a ride. He's
been to high school and peewee football games and
loves riding in the bed of the pickup. He's been riding
in the bed of the pickup since he was about 2 months
old and enjoys looking around the cab to catch the
wind in his face. My workshop is in the back of Kim's
fitness studio so when he goes there with me he
takes his time and stops in the aerobics room and
the cardio room to get loved on by the ladies. Kim
spoils him though...whenever she takes him to the vet
he gets to ride inside her truck where it's nice and
cozy! Yep, no doubt about it, when he's with me he's
all Lab. When he's with Kim he's all Poodle!
Coach has been so easy to train. He'll come find you
and bark once to let you know he needs out and he'll
bark once or twice to let you know he's ready to come
back in. If you don't open the door after the second
bark, he'll just stay outside and play. He sits on
command and listens to NO. One of his (my) favorite
tricks is placing a treat on the bridge of his nose.
Then then he'll pop it up and catch it in his mouth!
It's clear he comes from good stock. We couldn't be
happier with Coach! Thanks!

Odin continues to be the love of our lives. He is
a kissy fellow and always wants to be in the
middle of the kissing. He only barks when he
wants your attention- so much for a watch dog,
but he has such a good disposition. He is a great
addition to the family-
sort of like a grandchild.
Take care,

I know it has been along time but "Slick" is doing
great. We named him Rusty and he is a wonderful
pet. We all love him. He is playful yet relaxed, he
usually just lays on the floor. He likes to chase our
cats, he is pretty funny- the cats always seem to put
him in his place (they are both declawed). He his real
smart even though I probably don't spend enough
time training him (with 3 kids it is hard) ,but he can sit,
stay, and fetch- we will bring the ball back and drop it
at my feet- he always comes when called, since the
day we got him. He has 2 neighbor dogs that he
loves to play with he is always trying to get under the
fence to get to them, and they do the same. We keep
filling in the hole but it never stays for too long. He is
gettting really big he is about 40 lbs. and our vet says
that he will probably get up to 60 lbs. or 70 lbs. Her
goes to the vet every couple months and is current on
all his shots. He will be getting neutered in January
when he is 6 months. He likes riding in the car
he gets on the seat and sits next to my oldest in the
back seat when we go.

We would love to be a reference for you- Jersey is
doing great- she finally takes up her whole crate-
she only sleeps there and goes there when we are
gone- she is completely potty trained and has been
for a while- we haven't left her out alone at home
though- not sure what she would do with the whole
house to herself- ha! She has claimed Rob's
footstool as her own- and we have had difficulty
finding a toy she can't chew up! She recently stayed
with some friends of ours while we were on
vacation- I couldn't stand the thought of a kennel-
she did great- she played all day and night with
there puppy which is a boxer and she had her own
crate there with her- however she learned to swim
in their pool while on her vacation and she loved it-
we will take her back for visits. I'm not sure if it is
just her breed, but she never ever pooped in the
house- only peed; she loves the other dogs- they
are full blood black labs. They don't like her too
much, but she loves them.

Marley is great! She has her final set of shots on
Saturday morning - she was 26 pounds 3 weeks
she's grown in the last few weeks! She's growing
so fast & is starting to lose her baby teeth. She's
retrieving frisbees and balls but is quick to want to
lie down and just chew on the frisbee (and chew
and pick up anything and everything she finds --
specifically socks!!). She's a doll and we are having
fun with her.
We hope you all are doing great!! I am so glad we
decided on a labradoodle!



Hi Lindsie,
Sadie went to the vet yesterday for her 2nd checkup.
She is doing very well. She is almost 15 lbs! Our vet
thinks she is going to be a big girl (like 60-65lbs).
She wakes us up at night to let her out, and during
the day she is starting to let us know when she has
to go out by walking to the steps and crying. I would
say she is about 99% house broken. She has
learned, sit, down, and paw and most definitely
knows her name now. She loves long walks, and
just wants to meet everyone we pass. She isn't
much interested in other dogs, unless it's puppy play
time at our Petsmart. I found a doggy day care in our
area, so perhaps I will take her there to have fun with
other dogs. At this point I am thinking of making her
a therapy dog, she is so sweet and I just know
everyone would love to snuggle with her as much as
we do. Of course I have to wait for her to be a year
old before I can get her tested, but that gives us
plenty of training time. Will get some pictures to you
soon - you won't believe how big she is already!
Take care,
Cheryl
birds. He is really a smart dog. He plays fetch and
brings the ball back and drops it at our feet. The
funniest thing he does now is brings me his bowl
and leaves it at my feet when he's hungry. It's
hilarious. Saturday I woke up with him next to the
bed with the bowl in his mouth, just looking at me.
What a life...spends his mornings watching the We
just love him so much. Completely What a
life...spends his mornings watching the
housebroken now too
Thought I'd send you this of max sleeping. He
carries that bowl everywhere... It's so funny. He is
so smart and we couldn't ask for a sweeter boy. He
is so loving. Thank you for such a great dog, he
really is a great addition to our family.

Lindsie,
Hello there! I have been horrible about staying in touch with you guys.
Flash is doing fantastic!
Our world has been a whirlwind since Flash came home. We got this
sweet baby in September of 2007. Right after that, we realized I was
pregnant. On October 6, we came home from dinner to realize that our
beloved schnauzer had crossed the Rainbow Bridge. He was battling
cancer and we knew our time with him was limited.
We then went through obedience class and Flash was definitely the
teacher's favorite :)
I think she contacted you at one point during that time because she had a
client who wanted a Labradoodle. The remainder of my school year flew
by with work commitments and the pregnancy. In the meantime, Flash
adopted our 6 year old daughter as his "person" in the family. He follows
Allison everywhere and even sleeps in her bed.
Our baby boy arrived in May and Flash was fantastic with him from day
one. He allows Jackson to pull on him and squeal around him and he just
wags his tail. We even think he smiles!!!! He is so well-behaved that I can
walk him while pushing the stroller and rather than pulling, he justs cruises
along and enjoys the family time.
We take him to doggy day care occasionally and he is used as the
interview dog that decides whether a dog behaves well enough to stay!!
He is more fabulous than we could have ever imagined! He is so
funny......his nightly routine involves standing by the refrigerator until we
get him a piece of ice. Once he eats that, he goes to bed!
After many discussions, Brian and I have decided that it is now time for us
to get another dog. We want Flash to have a friend to play with everyday.
After having an amazing Lab and an incredible Schnauzer, we thought a
new dog might have a hard time filling their shoes. I am so happy to say
that Flash exceeded our expectations. With that being said, we want
another Labradoodle. More importantly, we want a Skinner Doodle. We
would love to have one of your puppies (I really want a black one!)

Hi! I was actually just going through some
pictures. I have the sweetest picture of Belle,
and one with her carving pumpkins with the
kids! She has gotten really big. She's
probably close to 40 pounds already. She is
the most beautiful color, and her hair is really
soft. She's a really smart dog. They are best
friends!

Hi Cheri,
Let me start by saying we are absolutely in LOVE with our
little man!! I have to admit I am a Rhodesian fan and was
not too sure how a Labradoodle would fit it here but Hurley
has captured all of our hearts. He is so sweet and smart
and has a great personality!! Much calmer that what I am
used to and actually listens to our commands..lol.
The hair...I can't quit touching him he is so soft and no
shedding...incredible!!
He is 99% housebroken and is sleeping throught the
night and actually gets in his kennel at night when he is
ready for bed!! Amazing!
Thank you for sharing him with us, we couldn't be happier!
If you ever need a reference you can use me and include
my email.
I have had several people ask me where we got him and I
pass your website along to them.
Can you explain one thing for me, he is an F1, is that
correct? I couldn't remember what that meant.
With love in our hearts,
~Lori Lentz
