Moonstruck Bernedoodles

Lunette (Toque/Marty) is 16 months and sooooo chill! Our little barn kitty, Dax, is having a good time🤣

This good girl, Audrey, caught me a GIANT rat from the straw bales. I so wish I had my phone! She was so very proud of herself bringing her trophy to me bulging out of both sides of her mouth, 🥰. We had to RUN together up the hill to get an EXTRA special treat for me to trade her for her prize. This gives me THREE confirmed ratters - Skittles, Marty and Audrey - all from the same lineage. Such a handy skill on the new LOML Acres, Nova Scotia farm! These dogs are easy-going enough to help me do all my farming chores without bothering the livestock (something they have never been exposed to before) while just drivey enough to make a nessisary "hit"! I am so proud of my little doodles 🤗 Such good boys and girls!

It's dog food making day! Guess what is healthier than adding kale or spinach and it's FREE?! Dandelion! Your dog can eat the entire plant: roots, leaf and flower. It is high in many vitamins and minerals and is a superfood providing lots of antioxidants. Actually, you can eat them, too! Don't overlook the food right there in your garden!

In this video I spy many Moonstruck dogs and some non-Moonstruck dogs. Muffin, Neva, S'more, Marty, Prism, Skittles, Abby, Audrey, Tilly, Lunette, Duckie are our program dogs and Sevyn and Nydoo are our pets (Veska and Uhtred the German Shepherds are FAR too rough on the doodles to come along...they get their own walk, lol). The dogs are so happy to have their very own trails on our new 85 acres. I am hacking my way to the river, so one day they will have their own swimming hole! Might take some time, but we will get there!

The trick to getting a good Skittles picture is to ambush her before she sees you snapping photos. If you know the joke around this, post a pic of your derpy Moonstruck dog below!

Little Audrey! We call her goat-dog because she loves being up on things and she has quite the sproing abilities! She is a sweet, easy-going girl who has become really great, really quickly with our new livestock. She now navigates cattle, goats, pigs and baby barn kitties with next to no coaching feom us! Weighing in at just 22lbs, she has low maintenance weak furnishings with curls (hard to tell in a pic). Audrey is gearing up to be a first time mom in 2025!

Ever feel like "personal space" is just this thing you hear about that other people have in their world?

Happy 4th birthday to a special girl like no other and the rest of Prism's siblings from Neva/Patch!

Duckie is an upcoming Moonstruck momma (if she passes all her tests)! She has a super stocky, blocky build (56% Bernese) and great structure/movement - I am very impressed. Her personality is to die for! She is a S'more grandbaby and she really has a blend of her dad's, (Atlas) temperament and her granddaddy, Smore. She has my favorite type of furnished coat - Weak furnishings. This coat type tends to shed a bit more than strong furnishings, so we don't reccomend it for people with allergies, BUT if you want that cute Disney-dog look with far less grooming requirements, this is definitely the coat! She is over 6 months and I have not run a comb thru her once! Just doesn't need it 😍

Dog food making day! When we are not feeding puppies we feed 20lbs of raw food to our pack per day! This is a mixture of beef and tripe with assorted veg and fruit and supplements. We freeze it in totes and then cut them to meal size with a ban saw.

Look who I ran into at the coffee shop! 🥰

Okay! I am letting the cat out of the bag, finally! While, yes, sadly and excitedly, I am moving to the East Coast, we are keeping Moonstruck Bernedoodles alive - just a wee bit - on Vancouver Island! Check it out! We have sub-30lb Tri and Tri Merles on the way and our first NS litter officially posted!

She's going to go live with her great-auntie Mindy!! Moonstruckbernedoodles.ca/Mindy.html. She's gonna be a sailing dog! Best. Life. Ever. Maybe I'll get adopted with her 🤣🤣

Well, we did have a home but it's fallen thru, so last chance for this good girl to find a west coast address! We leave in 3 days! She is sooooo great!

Ladysmith is an extremely sweet, super fun, engaged puppy who would make an amazing "sport" prospect while still being an easy to manage pet. She is a little "more" doodle than the average but it's in all really fabulous ways! She will be extremely trainable in more complex tasks as she ecstatic when you pay attention to her! She is a thinker and she is persistent because she knows she can do it, so she tries harder than the average doodle and she is trying for YOU because she thinks the sun rises and sets over your head🥰 Estimated to mature between 22 and 28lbs, she is the full meal deal for somwone who likes to "do things" with their dog. Her perfect family would have previous dog experience (simply because she will need boundaries - all dogs need boundaries). Do not confuse what I am saying with her being "hyper". She is a marvelous, well rounded puppy who is just a bit more than what people looking for a doodle would expect.

Normally I am sooo happy for families to pick up their new puppy, but this one is cutting a bit deep. My sweet Marmara, a puppy I got super attached to, will have a better upbringing during the critical socialization period than I can give her packing up my house and driving 7,000km from coast to coast. It's just not the right time to have a raise a baby. She is going to a wonderful couple who will give her the very best life! I am so happy for Marmara and her new family but sad for me!! 🥲

This is it!! These are my last Vancouver Island puppies before our big move to Nova Scotia! Ready to go just in time for summer!

Just a fun and or chaotic Thursday evening with how many babies do you see? I'm not telling 😁 Moonstruckbernedoodles.ca

21/06/2024

Van Isle babies are SIX weeks tomorrow!!! Can you believe it?!?! This is it! This is my last few weeks here on the West Coast. In just a few weeks I will officially and forever be a Maritimer! 🥰🥰 Two selection spaces left of this litter being chosen next week and going home July 4th! Moonstruckbernedoodles.ca

Very often people say they want a dog of a particular "size" and that is generally judged by weight. But Duckie and Luna are basically the same size however built very differently.

15/06/2024

Duckie feeling sorry for herself cause she wouldn't shut up (over tired) so playtime with the other dogs ended in forced chill/jail time. 🤣

Jolene's babies saw the vet today for their check-up, vaccines and microchips. Then we stopped on the way home to have a visit with their dad, Rusty! Moonstruckbernedoodles.ca
