Lovedale Biscuit.. another of our beautiful pups training to be a school therapy/support dog ❤️🐾

My travels took me to Port Macquarie yesterday to reassess Lovedale Madge for her Kaysadale Farm Therapy/Support Dog recertification. I will be honest in saying I had a few tears listening to the difference she has made and for privacy reasons we can’t post it all here. I asked Kylie, owner, handler and school psychologist, to tell me what is the difference that she’s making in the school community and this was her reply
“Madge has been doing valuable work with all students at the College. In particular she has been working with one of our students all year in preparation for her exam. Working with Madge has helped develop confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging in our community. The amount of love Madge gives out is returned tenfold. She is our favourite staff member and we can’t imagine life without her in our community.” Melts our hearts ♥️ so many of our Lovedale pups are going on to become school therapy/support dogs and therapy dogs for families and workplaces. So proud of you all 🥹🐾♥️

We’ve known Liz and her family for over nine years and they’ve always recommended our breeding, boarding and training and have so many friends who have our dogs. Having recently lost one of their own gorgeous pooches, it was time for another. Lovedale Jo Jo with the Bow Bow was meant to be! She’s going to bring them so much joy and we are over the moon that they are her family ❤️❤️❤️

Another wonderful success story for our Lovedale Labradoodle Zelda and her dedicated owner Emma in passing our Therapy Dog Certification (recognised by NSW Dept of Education). Huge congratulations to everyone involved to make this happen, especially Ema who had 3 young children and still has worked and maintained calm within the household as well as the workplace. So proud 🙌🐾

**** UPDATE! I’M NOW WITH MY FABULOUS FOREVER HOME!!****
Hi y’all. My name is Aladdin and I’m looking for my forever home. I think I’m pretty special as apart from being drop dead gorgeous, I’m 12 weeks old and have been in training on the Puppy Development Program for four weeks. I don’t mean to brag but I can sit, drop, stand, walk on a lead, stay, sleep from 8.30pm - 6.30am in my crate, great at being tethered, have been extensively socialised, groomed, and I’m brave and confident. I will grow to be approximately 10kgs with a beautiful loose fleece coat. If you’re ready now to have me join your home, please pm and the old girl will answer any further questions!”

Biscuits.. another Lovedale Labradoodle who has started his journey towards being a therapy/support dog for a local school after completing his initial training on our Puppy Development Program. He’s a big floofy confident and brave boy about to make an amazing difference to his school community and his little dry nose at home ❤️🐾❤️

Who wants a 'feel good' story to start the weekend off?

We have received an email with an update on Emma who was the pup we gifted a special family last year. The applicants blew us away and it was such a difficult decision to find the most suitable family for this pup and we were thrilled when we decided to gift her to Corrin and her children.

She is certainly making a difference to this family and the email brought us both to tears of gratitude, pride and humbleness.

So I'm writing an update on Emma.
No words can thank you enough for the joy Emma has brought to everyone in our little family circle.
She immediately bonded with Max ( who has Crohn's disease) & is so in tune with him - it's truly amazing !!. Emma has a calming influence on Max if he has an anxiety "meltdown" & will lie quietly with him. She also senses when he is sick or in pain and she will lie across him to comfort him .Each time Max gets home from Westmead Child Hospital, it's always Emma who gets the first cuddle lol! We accept Emma is "number one" in his life.
Even though she has that special bond with Max, Emma also loves EVERYONE in our family. She has the most beautiful, loving nature & is adored by all.
Although our old dog Ernie ( 17) passed away a few months ago, Emma gave him a new lease on life when she arrived. She also loves our cat, Meow - so funny watching them take turns chasing one another around the yard.
Emma loves water & it's a challenge to stop her jumping in the bath
or shower with the kids, which she has succeeded in doing so many times!
We live next door to Corrin, with adjoining yards & a gate, so Emma shares herself between the two houses.
I've continued her training ( her recall is still a "work in progress" but we're getting there haha!). Lina is also very good helping with Emma's training.
So, thank you again for making it possible to have Emma. She has made such a difference to Max's life ( & all the rest of us).
I've attached photos of Emma with Lina, Max (2 photos) and Oscar ( who also lives with us).
Love Di

How gorgeous are these litter cherubs from Lovedale Florence Bubblegum and Belloui Hemsworth?!! We have three available and this is Flozzy’s last litter. They’re ready to leave and join their forever homes from this weekend! One will remain in training to become an Assistance Dog and another will remain on our breeding program provided we have excellent health testing results. They will mature to approximately 10-12kgs ❤️🐾

02/06/2024

Cricket is 11 weeks old and the last of Lovedale Mildred and Belloui Hemsworth’s litter looking for their forever home. She will mature to approximately 16kgs and has a beautiful loose fleece coat. Cricket is so brave and confident, nothing fazes her. She could excel in therapy work, obedience, agility or scent work, but is also very calm and settled in the house. She is as happy playing as she is to relax in her crate or on a tether. She has already completed 3 weeks on our puppy training program and loves to learn ❤️🐾

Flozzys litter had their vet checks, vaccinations and microchips done yesterday at Cessnock Veterinary Hospital and were super well behaved!

Pure love and joy…. Little boys and little pups 🥰💙🥰

Thanks to Kelly’s grandsons who came and spent valuable time with the puppies when the sun came out briefly. It was a joy to witness and the pups got just as much enjoyment out of the interactions as the boys did!

We have a rehoming opportunity for one lucky family!

Lovedale Happy (Lovedale Flozzie x Julius Caesar) is looking for a new family to call his own. His current owners circumstances have changed and they are unable to continue to care for this gorgeous bloke. He is based near Wollongong and you will need to contact Kate for any further information or to make an enquiry.

Happy is nearly 2 years old, is desexed, microchipped and up to date with all his vaccinations. He is small medium and has a lovely cream coat. There are no health concerns and he has current health insurance. Happy has lived in an apartment and is really needing some space to run around in.

Happy LOVES - playing fetch
- swimming at the beach
- a cuddle
- his crate
He is well socialised, however has a fear of men but will warm up to them if given the right support and patience. He enjoys other dogs company but can sometimes bark at them if he sees other dogs whilst out on a walk. Happy knows a variety of commands and has great manners.

An ideal home for Happy would be where there are no small children or rowdy men, a yard to play in, lots of walks in parks or at beaches and someone who can continue his training with boundaries.

Please do not contact us here - message or call Kate on 0434 021 031.
