Grateful to my recent puppy buyers who’ve all made contact to let me know how incredibly well their new puppies are going: Sleeping through the night in their crates, no crying/whining, waiting to go outside for their toileting then going ‘on command,’ and generally being super chilled-out, happy, affectionate, easy, sweet, people-pleasing puppies 😇

I’m so proud of my puppers and miss them deeply, it’s hard to say goodbye as I become quite attached and fall in love with each individual puppy, which is not hard because they’re so easy to love ❤️

The saving grace for me is seeing how truly loved and cared for they are by their new families. I remember each and every one of my puppies from all my litters - a little piece of my heart goes with them on their departure. I wish I could keep them all but feel blessed to have loved them for a short time ❤️

I’d love it if all puppy buyers would do a bit of research into ethical dog breeders before purchasing a puppy. Here are some suggestions about what to ask when choosing a breeder -

1. Does the breeder allow you to visit the pups and adult dogs in person? Be wary if they don’t allow this.
2. Does the breeder provide results for genetic and health testing done on the parent dogs?
3. Check whether the majority of their litters appears social and confident.
4. How long has the breeder been breeding dogs and how many litters have they had? Experience is key.
5. Are the puppies raised inside the breeder’s home from birth? You don’t want a puppy who has been raised separate to a regular family environment, eg. in a shed or outside.
6. What were the Breeder’s goals for this litter?
7. At what age do they start breeding their mother dogs and how many litters does she have? She shouldn’t be bred prior to age two and shouldn’t have any more than four litters.
8. Will the breeder stay in touch and offer assistance when needed, as the puppy matures?
9. How does the breeder make sure the puppies are well-socialised with good temperaments?
10. Can the breeder provide references from previous buyers?

It’s worth the effort and time to ask these questions as it will influence the dog you have for the next 12-15 years!

It’s a full time job being this cute 🥰 ❤️

These darlings had their first visit to the vet today for health check, vaccinations and microchipping.

The vet was amazed at their temperaments - SO calm and sweet. I believe their incredibly lovable and loving personalities are due to the enriched environment I provide for them and the many, many hours I spend with them every day.

Shaping amazing temperaments in young puppies is very labour intensive and sometimes emotionally draining. I can’t imagine doing it any other way though, they mean so much to me.

Only two more weeks and they’ll be bringing so much joy to their forever families 💗

Such busy fun days with these sweet angels who are growing cuter and smarter each day.

Lots of socialisation and enrichment happening, through exposure to new and different experiences every day.

13/01/2022

As a breeder, my main goal is to produce a litter of healthy puppies that grows and develops to exemplify the best characteristics of Groodles. Affectionate, friendly, relaxed, confident, smart and easy to train, to name a few.

All the love and care they experience now will have long-lasting effects by strengthening the bond between the puppy and its family.

Numerous factors, both reproductive and environmental, influence the outcome of a breeding and ultimately the health and nature of the puppies. Reproductive factors include genetics, maternal health and age, maternal ability and maternal nutrition. Non-reproductive factors include the environment in which the puppies are born, the level and type of socialisation the puppies receive, the home environment of the breeder and subsequent owner, the ability of the owner to train expected behaviours and nutritional support.

Everything a breeder does ultimately determines the characteristics that will be expressed as an adult dog. Always in the forefront of my mind is the future lives of my gorgeous puppies and the strong bond I want them to have with their new families ❤️

These little cherubs had their first experience outdoors today! What little stars they are - so happy and so confident.

Their Mum Ellie was very content to let my 4 other adult Groodles shower her babies with gentle love and attention.

I implore you - if you’re looking at buying a puppy, please only consider breeders who treat their adult dogs as pets who are cherished family members (as opposed to dogs whose main purpose is to breed. A puppy mill is anyone who is not giving their adult dogs a normal life as much-loved family pets).

Ask to see health testing results for genetic/DNA screening, hip and elbow scores and ask if you can visit their home to see how their dogs live. Any good breeder will have adequate bio-security in place to protect the health and safety of their puppies, so if they use Covid as an excuse to not allow visitors - it’s a red flag!

All dogs and puppies deserve an idyllic life with lots of love and affection - especially Groodles who are genetically primed to stick to their humans like glue. They crave human connection and deserve the best from their humans

Too much cuteness bundled into 8 little perfect packages 👼🏼

Three weeks old today and I’ve started week one of their socialisation period, with new experiences and new sounds every day.

Eyes have all opened and they are starting to toddle around on wobbly little legs.

They listen to classical music in the background at different times of the day, which has been shown to affect physiological processes in the autonomic system. In other words, helping to create dogs who are relaxed and laid-back, without any anxiety or behavioural issues.

Such perfection at 2 weeks old 💗 So precious and so loved by their Mum, Ellie and me. Ellie is in beautiful shape and being very spoiled - she actually eats better than most humans! I give her 4 meals a day of roast chicken, steak, organic eggs, rice, veggies, cottage cheese, and other healthy food that helps her healthy milk production and generally bounce back really quickly.

I sleep next to Ellie and the puppies for the first few weeks and stay close as much as possible. I love them so much, I can’t imagine not doing it with complete care and devotion. I actually can’t express how blessed I feel to have these babies in my life, even if it’s for just a short time.

What many puppy buyers don’t realise is how important temperament is (the most important thing!)
More critical to your family’s enjoyment of your dog than anything else, including their colour and gender.

I strive to put out dogs into the world who are the most beautiful companions and family members. I do everything in my control in the first 8 weeks to provide those foundational traits that make them the best family companions - calm, easy to train, intelligent, affectionate, confident, gentle and loving. I follow Puppy Culture breeding protocols - the first two weeks I do daily neurological stimulation which has been proven to change the way dogs brains are wired. Here is an interesting article about it for anyone who’s interested -

OMG - These puppies are spectacular in every possible way 🤩

They’ll take a piece of my heart with them when they go to their forever homes next week as I’ve fallen in love with each individual puppy 🐶

Their new families are in for something special with these beautiful souls 💕

31/08/2021

My puppies all go to their forever families with ‘pre-installed bonuses’ that are a result of the enriched upbringing I give them. These enrichments come from following the ‘Puppy Culture’ program, which is extremely helpful not only for breeders - I encourage all puppy owners to follow it.

The critical socialisation period for puppies is over by 12 weeks, so everything that happens to her prior to that will shape the dog and all her relationships for the rest of her life.

When my puppies leave me at 8 weeks, they have basic toilet training and crate training. I especially focus on being happy/calm in a crate for my puppies who travel interstate to reach their new homes. As you can see in the 2nd photo photo, this little cherub who is flying to North Queensland next week is already happy to voluntarily enter her crate and have a rest inside, despite the door being wide open. This alleviates any anxiety she experiences next week when she flies to her forever home.

I find it very rewarding to know that my puppies have experienced an enriched upbringing as they enter their new family with a happy-go-lucky attitude, ready to be moulded and shaped to their new environment.
