My last post was deleted by FB - so all I will say is “how cute is Chloe’s boy?”

It’s so interesting how my original FB page got permanently deleted randomly. And my posts are always scrutinised.
Yet a FB page run by criminals which has almost 10,000 followers, which has stolen ALL of my photos and videos, that over the last 5 years has scammed people out of hundreds of thousands of dollars is still up and running!! Even though it’s been reported so many times. Tell me how that makes sense 🤷🏼‍♀️

Almost 5 years of the same scammer harassing me, pretending to be me and reposting my content with their fake names to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from people!

Moving in to 2024 I will be making a slight change to my page…. For the better of my mental health and for the whole vibe of my business.

Breeding beautiful pups in a wonderful environment has often been overshadowed by me chasing and alerting you of scammers, one in particular who has basically tormented me.

I woke up this morning to a message from someone asking if I was the same person they were buying a pup from. I said no, that they had been scammed - out of $3,000.
Whenever anyone finds out they’ve been scammed, I’m generally the recipient of their first reaction, often unpleasant yet understandable.
I’m very much an empath and absorb more than I should and always feel my heart flutter and dreadful for the people.

This time last year I spent hours during our family camping trip parked on the side of the road where I could get phone reception, trying to figure out how to alert everyone in Australia and report every single fake page. Literally hours. I will not be doing that this year.

So this will be my very last post regarding scammers.
This post is to highlight that they are out there as much as ever and are being more and more tactful than ever before.
It is up to everyone as an individual to be responsible for their due diligence in making sure they are dealing with a legitimate breeder. And there’s no point airing that on my page as they all only find my page after the fact.

Today miss Toff Toff and I spent 3 hours at the park with my kids - they had a ball! And I’d much rather be doing that than trying to report scammers who are like weeds that pop back up anyway.

Here’s to a positive, fun and enjoyable 2024 everyone! 🐶♥️

Last day of grade 1 for our gorgeous boy Hugo 🥳

It’s been a great year - lots of challenges but also lots of growth!

So lucky to have my two boys - even though their energy levels and strong minds can often drive me a bit crazy 🤣

Well done to all the school kids this year and here’s to fabulous school holidays!!

😎 🐶 🐾

So lovely to look after Archie who went off to his new home in May of 2022. Even though it’s been a long time since I last saw him, I’m pretty positive he remembers us 💙
Watching him with the kids is really cute too - they find it funny having a “big Cavoodle” here as we don’t actually own one ourselves!

26/11/2023

Maggie’s 4 puppies and Chloe’s 3 beautiful babies 🐶 These litters are just 5 days apart but it makes such a difference in size when they grow so fast!
Maggie’s babies all have their eyes open and we are almost there with Chloe’s!
All girls are sold 💕
PM for more info 🐶💙

How gorgeous is this baby boy?!

Maggie’s puppies all have the cutest markings! She’s doing so well as a first time mum 💕

Feel free to PM me for more info! 🐶

How gorgeous that I get to see our babies all grown up!

What’s your favourite shade of Toy Cavoodle?

Don’t forget to tag in the posts of your pups so I don’t miss them!

These two divine pups are almost 1! How stunning are and 🐶🥰

I am camping at the moment and a lady opposite us had a black dog. She said “well, she’s supposed to be a Cavoodle but everyone thinks she looks more like a spoodle or some other mix”.
I asked her what generation the dog was and she didn’t know what I meant so I asked what the parents were and she said “a Cavoodle and a cavoodle”. I said, “then what you’ve got is some variation of a mix of Cavie and poodle but this is what happens when they aren’t first generation”.
Still a lovely dog that they are happy with but not what they expected.
Another reason all my pups are first gens and not Cavoodle to Cavoodle 👍😊

How stunning is ?! 😍

Who remembers ?! The little pup Hugo nicknamed a “soccer ball” because he was literally a ball of fluff when he went off to his new home.

So lucky I get to follow so many of my pups as they grow and see all their adventures. One of Milos favourite things (and what I love watching) is visiting his great-grandmother who adores him!
What joy our babies bring 🥰🐶

3 weeks old tomorrow 🐶
First 4 are our gorgeous boys and the last 2 are our pretty girls 💜

24 paws, 12 floppy ears and closed eyes ♥️
Our 6 teeny tiny perfect babies 🐶

Did you know that the first 2 weeks after birth the babies are totally reliant upon their mother? They cannot regulate their own body temperature, can’t hear or see, and can’t toilet without their mum licking them to stimulate the flow.

My job in the first two weeks is simply to support mumma Holly. Making sure she’s got excellent quality food, fresh water and changing her blanket daily. Helping keep her pups lovely and warm inside in a heated whelping box. Giving her the opportunity to go outside when she wants - which is about 4-5 times a day. She’s very brief, mainly wanting to come back to snuggle her babes.
Handling pups at this age is important, but only for short periods. The pups don’t love it and the mums can get worried. My handling is done when I change the blanket for instance.

Anyway - thought you all might like a few fun facts about pups this small 🥰

Our beautiful babies ♥️

I was chatting to a lady on the phone today who might get a pup from me and we were talking about Doggy Day Care and whether it’s a good idea.

When we talk about “puppy socialisation” I think it’s important to remember that it doesn’t mean “puppies playing with other puppies”. For years I’ve provided an info sheet on socialisation as part of my puppy pack and in this I highlight socialisation as having the pups exposed to the world from a young age so as they grow, nothing phases them, they are used to it.
Our wonderful teacher in my course said one of the best things to do is go and sit at a park bench and watch the world go by.

I think Doggy Day Care can be good if it’s the right fit for your pup. I would always ask if they have a seperate area for smaller dogs and how many dogs are in together at once.
And also train your dog when on leash that it’s not ok to just run up and try to get to every single dog walking past on the street. For everyone’s safety 🥰

The girls 😍

I’ve been having a lot of fun doing training with each of them! And they really enjoy themselves too. Each of them have their own personalities and what drives them. Miss Maggie is definitely motivated by food, Chloe is motivated by cuddles and Toffee is motivated by food and play 😊

Such a beautiful litter of pups 🥰 Their white markings are so gorgeous!

looking soooo handsome!!
Why is it that boys always have the best eyelashes?! 💙💙

🐶 Puppy Pricing 🐶

Why are Cavoodles priced differently?
My Cavoodles certainly aren’t the cheapest and there are a number of reasons they are priced as they are.

I hold a Domestic Animal License which is VERY hard to obtain. My first audit I had 4 officers here to inspect my property and ensure every fine detail was up to scratch (which of course it was!). They went through my paperwork and how I operate with a fine tooth comb.
I’m then audited annually.
I have a huge file containing every policy and procedure that is in alignment of the Code of Practice, which was established in conjunction with experienced veterinarians.

As I have a domestic animal license, each puppy comes with a legally binding health guarantee which gives my new owners peace of mind. They are all first generation and parents DNA tested.

If anyone tells you they are a registered breeder of Cavoodles then they are telling porkies - there’s no such thing as the ANKC only register breeders of purebred dogs.

I am here before, during and after purchase to answer any and every question. The puppy you get from me is going to be a part of your family for many many years - so it’s highly important to get it right.

I am about to complete my Certificate 3 in Dog Behaviour and Training to ensure that I am up to date with all current recommendations and not only ensure the best socialisation of my puppies, but the ability to provide owners with training advice.

In essence, you pay for what you get and I strive to always have the highest standard practices and of course the loveliest puppies 😉

Pictured here is Sophs gorgeous baby girl who’s new owner is super excited to bring home in a few weeks ♥️🐶

Happy birthday beautiful boy 💙💙

You landed yourself the most wonderful home and now have a little human to play with too which is super special 🥰🐶

Beautiful boy Billy has settled in so well with his furever home 💙
His lovely owners send me updates to tell me how he’s going. The latest pic is just divine. He still looks like a puppy 💙
He loves snuggling with his big sister Annie and I think it’s so cute to see how he’s grown alongside her 🥰

Is anyone else on high alert when they walk their dogs or is it just me?
Today we took Maggie and Lucy for a catch up with Brandy, Lily and Rosie - which was so lovely. But the number of people who let their big dogs come in our space and stay there, whilst our dogs got worried, astounded me.

A large dog approached in a manner that looked suspicious as I was getting Levi’s shoe on, so I called to the owner to call it back. They were oblivious to how the dog was acting. Another dog came over and gave ours a fright while the owner was on the phone not even watching!
Then whilst at a cafe a guy in a wheelchair had an entire male dog hooked to the chair at full length of the lead. Our dogs were under our table. This dog lunged at ours under the table and the guy had zero control. Gave us, Levi and the girls a big fright!

I’m not going to name the breeds because I’ll get crucified - but it’s sad that it now makes me always on edge around these breeds. And it’s the owners fault.

Fine to have your dog off lead if it doesn’t bother anyone else’s dog. But just because my dogs are out and about doesn’t mean they want to meet every other dog.
Socialising your dog doesn’t mean letting it run up to every other dog.
A well socialised dog is one that couldn’t care less about other dogs around them.

Wow.. that quickly because a rant 🤣
On that note - aside from a few hairy moments - the girls had a lovely morning catching up again 🐶🥰
