It’s a dog’s life! Lucky Winnie is living the good life in St. Catharines!
Daisy has a very comfortable bed in Mom’s car when they go to town. Comfortable enough to nap in!
Bailey, who went to her new home on Saturday is learning that humans, children in particular, are just as fun as littermates!
We had another litter of puppies born at Country Lane on June 11, 2024. Three gorgeous puppies from Kalleigh/Mojo. But their growth and milestones were not posted on FB because we had five families that were not able to bring a puppy home because of the small litter size. So, we had five disappointed families! Because of this, I decided not to post their first eight weeks on our site but did private updates to the three families. But, it did not seem right to let them go to their homes on Saturday without some acknowledgment of their arrival, growth and transition to their new homes. Sweet puppies, it has been a lovely experience to get to know you in a way which is more difficult with larger litters! I know you will go home to your loving families and will bring joy and companionship to your new families!
I had no idea that Cookie was adopted by an artist! Lizzie showcased her new four legged friend with this lovely drawing!
Laura, Lizzie’s mom reports that Cookie is “such a lovely puppy. And so well trained... Not a single accident!! Everywhere we go people comment on what a sweet girl she is!”
Good girl Cookie!
More Puppy Updates!
This is Riley! Rick and Joyce report that Riley has fit right into their lives from Day One. He is smart and a happy go lucky little fellow. And his parents keep him busy going swimming and for car rides. Riley evens helps to clean the car! Lol. We certainly miss you but we know you are in loving care with Joyce and Rick!
So nice to get updates on the “kids”!
DJ has settled into his new home with his sister Chelsea, the Wheaton Terrier. He has already learned to sit, lay down and shake a paw on command. DJ is a special little guy who is so smart, lovable and funny according to his Mom and Dad. He definitely has stolen their hearts and is much loved.
DJ, you are a good boy and you are lucky to have a wonderful home with Dan and Bonnie❤️.
So delighted to get a puppy report. Thank you Karen! Winnie is doing “amazing”. This lucky puppy got to spend time at the cottage and Karen reports that she took to the water “like a little otter”. Karen is experiencing the demands of having a new puppy! I know. I know! But, if you put the work in now, in one year, it will be easy! Wishing you a long and happy partnership Winnie and Karen.
We were feeling happy/sad that Cookie and Riley had finished their two week stay with us. Happy because they are going to great, loving homes, but sad that we won’t be seeing their joyful, playful ways. Then, I heard news about these two puppies’ siblings. That certainly brightened my day!
I am enjoying my “all ages” morning walks with my pack. Kalleigh, three years old, always leads the way. Our two juniors stay in close proximity to me to keep safe. And Cooper and I, both seniors, amble along at the end of the pack!
It is nice to hear how the “kids” are doing! Polly shows her aunt Roxy (Piper/Louis) how well she can walk on a leash!
Bright lights, Big City- Coldwater!
Taking Riley and Cookie to meet people, see other dogs (no meeting them just yet), seeing automobiles.
They handled it all so well. Good doggies!
Ready for a pick of the litter female Goldendoodle puppy who is part of Country Lane Guardian program? This lovely female is available at no cost to a responsible, dog loving family no further than one hour from Country Lane Doodles in Coldwater, Ontario. For more information- www.countrylanedoodles.ca
We are giving our two puppies who are with us for two additional weeks lots of new experiences. If Cookie’s family kayak or canoe, their dog will be ready to hop right in!
Cookie and Riley are becoming therapy dogs!
Not really, but they did come to our volunteer job at Trillium Manor today. This was great experience for the puppies to meet new people and have a new experience. It was also great for the seniors who enjoyed petting and holding the puppies. And through this experience, the seniors were able to tell us about the dogs in their lives.
Country Lane Doodles won’t work without its amazing guardian families! This is who Kalleigh loves best- Peter, Lianne and Molly. She is one lucky dog to have a family like this! Thank you for all you do!
Today is a big day!
7 out of 9 puppies are going home.
Grayce, who has spent so much time with the puppies, gives them a hug for the road!
Cookie and Riley will be with us for two more weeks so we will not be out of puppy hugs just yet!
Jenn and Brian’s puppy was a natural. Got the idea right away!
DJ was a little reluctant but he got the hang of what I was asking.
We are trying to give puppies as much exposure to new things as possible before they leave. Tonight, we did short leash training introductions. We will do all puppies before they leave and will post their first time on a leash.
Here is Baci!
When the temperature came down, the puppies came out and played and played and played!
Parker picks his family when he joins them in the “hands in” challenge (see Instagram)!
Yesterday was Vet Visit Day! In the bottom picture, you can see them waiting patiently for their turn. This is in contrast to other vet visits with previous litters when complete chaos reigns! Puppies had their vaccinations, received a microchip, and passed their health exam with flying colors.
Special thanks to Molly’s guardian mom, Karen, and daughter Grayce for helping to make this visit work smoothly!
So happy that we do not have to call them “puppy”. We will work this week on teaching them their names!
Kelly and Stephen meet their new family member. Formerly yellow collar male. Now, Parker!
Sebastian and Alexandra met their first dog yesterday! She is red collar female now known as Bacci (think chocolate!)
Karen meet her new best four legged friend! She is taking home light pink collar puppy who has been called by many child visitors as the “Harry Potter puppy” because her white face marking resembles a lightening bolt.
This was a tough decision but green collar female puppy’s calm disposition won over Zoe, Tyler. This little female is named Molly, just like Mom!
Meet Riley! Formerly known as black collar male! He is going to be Joyce and Rick’s new family member.
Puppies love their daily outdoor play! They are developing their bodies, gaining confidence, learning about their world, and having lots of fun too! And my daughter, Grayce, is in her happy place with these cuties!

My daughter, Grayce, has started taking puppies out for walks to the barn and the pond to expand their horizons! She takes two at a time for manageability. This time it is Red Collar, female and Turquoise collar, male.
Sunday Play Time! The weather cleared and puppies got some play time in their outdoor pen. They absolutely love the tunnel!
Happy 5 week Birthday Puppies🎊 They had a short outdoor play time. Too hot to keep them out for too long.
Time for a change of environment! The puppies went outside for some outdoor play on our deck today. It is interesting to watch their reaction. It was a bit scary for the first few minutes. We brought Molly into the pen to feed and reassure the puppies. We kept puppies outside for about 20 minutes but will increase the time each day so long as the sun is shining!
Now that Molly is not so tied down with the “kids”, she enjoys joining Cooper and I when we do evening chores!
Moving up to the big White House! As soon as the puppies start eating solid food, momma stops cleaning up the pee/poo. So it is time for puppies to begin housetraining. They are learning, very well I might add, to go to the toilet area of their puppy box. There will be lots of changes in puppies’ accommodation in the days/weeks ahead as they learn this skill and also, are ready for more experiences and stimulation.
Puppies are four weeks old today and they show how ready they are to eat solid foods. This new beginning shifts the relationship between Molly and her pups. She will begin to detach from her puppies, knowing that they are becoming independent. Over the next couple of weeks the puppies will move to four solid food meals a day. Molly will be check in with them for moral support and to make sure they are doing OK. This journey from helpless blind deaf newborn to active, alert and trainable puppies happens so quickly!
