Rain rain go away......🌧🎶
Little boy is getting a serious case of cabin fever.🐾💙

Long but informative.
Another analogy is think of the gut lining like a zipper, when leaky gut happens, teeth of the zipper go missing. Not only are there then holes for things to leak thru but the zipper can't function properly.

CURE FOR LEAKY GUT?
When your pet has crazy GI issues, where no food or treatment seems to work, owners can often suspect leaky gut is at play.

Think of your gut membrane as castle walls. All the baddies are on the outside, in this case, all the digested food mixed with bacteria, some good but some bad, as well all the environmental bits you accidentally ingested, including pollen and chemicals.

The gut membrane's job is to suck nutrition from this mess and leave all the nasty stuff to be ejected from the body.

Imagine how complicated a task that is!

Keeping with the castle analogy, all the top soldiers are just behind those walls protecting the king and queen (the brain and the heart). And they take their job VERY seriously. They make it so everything coming in has to pass over the drawbridge and in the gate. That way they can check each and every entrant in case they're packing something naughty.

Leaky gut, which occurs if you are too long with a GI issue, be it a nasty, unchecked dysbiosis, IBS or IBD, or maybe a chemical insult, where inflammation and damage build to such a point, gaps start appearing in the castle walls.

Now the soldiers inside are freaking out. Baddies start coming in unchecked. But they're no walkover. They now attack and tag any invading protein. If that happens to be a half-digested bit of chicken protein then chicken becomes "a threat". Next time you eat that protein BOOM your body reacts, expelling it as quickly as possible.

This is the development of food INTOLERANCES, not an actual food "allergy", a word we hear bandied around way too much. It's a mechanical issue at the gut lining, mediated by IgA and IgM antibodies (soldiers). True allergy is a genetic issue (although can be induced by vaccines, think peanut allergies in kids), mediated by IgE, the SAS of antibodies. When these guys are active, it's dramatic.

The good news is, fix the physical barrier, cure the leaky gut, and these intolearnces can pass.

But you MUST fix the barrier first.

That's the bit most people don't understand including virtually every single conventional vet who knows virtually nothing of this process nor how to heal it (and hence they keep your dog on chemically preserved kibble which multiple studies show AGGRAVATES the condition).

Some owners try jumping to raw but it doesn't work. That's because the gut AND gut flora (the guys that fix your gut) are is completely shot. You're simply running a Ferrari down a road with potholes. The awesome car will not last (another one of my analogies, I need to TM these)

All you're doing, when you're jumping from this to that, is exposing more proteins to the gaps and building your list of food intolerances.

You need a resolution. The first is to watch my Allergy Course on drconorbrady.com. It's the most popular course I have for a reason as it explains a lot of this to you, as well as highlighting why allergy tests etc DO NOT WORK. And it tells you how to go about healing the gut using diet (via an exclusion diet), some simple herbal additions like BioFunction8 (wait till you see what I have coming soon there...) and maybe some probiotics (but not bacterial).
https://www.drconorbrady.com/resource_redirect/landing_pages/2149820514

It's already 3hrs long that course but I'm currently adding a new bit to the end to highlight how effective FMT is for cases that we can't get right using the above.

Check this study out: they treated human patients with leaky gut syndrome (LGS) with FMT in an attempt to remedy gastrointestinal flora loss "in a simple, inexpensive, permanent and effective way without the need for further treatment".

Doesn't that sound promising?!

Of the 56 patients (25 female, 31 male, avg age 33) FMT had a success rate of 89%.

That is 89% cured. Not just helped.

Based on these results the authors conclude "In leaky gut, FMT should be the gold standard treatment".
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih. gov/pmc/articles/PMC9720094/

Can you imagine how utterly transformative that must have been for those people?

Leaky Gut will destroy you, physically and mentally.

Some background on the above patients:

"Before their diagnosis of leaky gut, 6 patients received radiotherapy and chemotherapy together, and 1 patient received chemotherapy alone. A total of 22 patients had long-term systemic steroid administration, while 38 patients had a history of antibiotic use for 21 days or more, at least once in their lifetime, and 27 patients had a history of intensive industrial food consumption. A total of 14 patients had a history of autoimmune diseases (arthritis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, psoriasis, polycystic o***y, etc.). There was a history of the need for long-term antihistamine use in 19 patients. Of the patients, 16 reported a history of intensive care treatment, and 10 reported oral stops for seven days or more."

Proper sick people. Was the Leaky Gut the cause or the result?

Who knows. But what I do know is these folk need it fixed stat.

Then there is the behavioural bit:

"Before FNT, 46 patients had a mood disorder. Of the patients, 25 had depression, 3 had major depression, 1 had bipolar affective disorder".

An examination performed 8 weeks later revealed in patients who underwent FMT showed that just 16 patients were still experiencing an ongoing mood disorder.

40 were found to be normal.

9 of the patients had aut ism "and a history of aggression when consuming certain foods" coming into the trial.

Of those "symptoms were found to be in significant remission, aggressiveness disappeared, aut ism symptoms regressed, and who showed positive improvements in dialogue with others and in learning processes" in all 9.

WHAAAAT?

BLLAAAAAASSSSSPPHEMY

But why not? Kids on this spectrum very often have GI issues and just last month a "groundbreaking" bit of research, published in the prestigious journal Nature Neuroscience, found a “definitive association” between temporal changes in gut microbiome composition and observable traits and symptoms of individuals with ASD.

Sounds like what that scientist was trying to tell us 26 years ago but everyone burned him at the stake 🤫

It's almost like there IS an environmental cause to the explosion of this disease in the general population since the 1980s...

Meet Ruffles & Pringles 🐾🩵🐾🩷 Two of Mr Jack's pups.
One is from Mama Mocha, the other Mama Saoirse.
When Mocha and Copper had their first litter together, little Saoirse caught my eye as one to potentially carry on Mocha's unique genes. In pairing her with Jack last winter, we saw exactly that!!! Its pretty rare to see the parti coats in our lines, as only the pairing of Mr. Jack with certain genomes that Mocha and now Saoirse compliment will produce, but gosh they are cuties. Both reared natural, fed fresh food diets and groomed by their amazing human Mum. Miss Pringles is just on the verge of her adult coat fully coming in now at 8 months. But such a fluffy-butt. I fully expect she will have the same curly fleece as her half brother Ruffles before long.
Thank you to their Mum for sharing another great photo of the dynamic duo in our Littermate family group. Im sure they turn heads when they head out the door for a stroll, or pawtrol the gardens for the chipmunk invaders.💗🐾
www.bluevalemeadowsaustralianlabradoodles.com to get on Jack and Saoirse's next reserve list.

When you adopt an Australian Labradoodle from us, you become part of an extended family. One that we offer connection with thru our private family group of Littermates.
🐾
Oakley and his Mum checked in this morning all the way from Spain. (having moved there when he was still a young fella)
The miles may be many between us, but I LUV that we can still connect with our puppies long after they leave our program.
🐾
This guy was from Mocha & Jacks, "Winnie the Pooh" litter the summer of 21'.
Mocha is now retired, with having her girl Saoirse (From Copper) take over her line. Same genetics. The pairing of Saoirse and Jack was a stunner last winter and we hope to repeat that this coming winter. A few spots are still open on their list for large mini's/small mediums like Oakley here.

If you follow our page, you will have seen some cute collar accessories on the pups when they get to about 7-8 weeks of age. Did you know I make those!? yup, started with our very first little crew of pups and the fettish grew into a sideline for me. 🤗 Enough so now, that I've added a highlighted page with in our website. You can check it out here...

During our very first litter, I created a few little "ribbon" bows to add to the pups collars. This began the little pet collar accessory fettish and the thus "Rompin It Up" was created.

This past weekend, I had to help our neighbor "catch" his new dog. An adolescent Golden who had gotten out of their yard. Hearing him from my office window, yelling her name and running down their drive, I quickly went out to help, as she was headed right for the hiway that is between us!
Thankfully, it was a Sunday morning and the traffic wasn't as heavy as it normally is during the work week. At first I attempted to shew her back towards him, but his approach of chasing her and yelling only made her more wary of him. Her body language said she was quite unsure if he was playing or really angry with her and thus she should run. One thing we should NEVER do, is chase our dogs, even in play - for this very reason!
She was now standing almost on the hiway and was eagerly looking at me to either help her from what looked like her angry dog dad, OR I was someone to investigate.
Its no secret that our dogs "talk" to each other at different times of day. She knows there's other dogs here and has yet to meet them. Again, for this reason, neither of us wish our dogs to be "crossing" a busy hiway.
My next approach was to start moving backwards and call her to get her off and away from that hiway as quickly as possible as I could hear a vehicle approaching from around the bend.
She came right to me and I quickly reach down to pet her and get ahold of that collar. As soon as i did, she dropped to the ground in submission that she'd been "caught".
As the neighbor approached with grateful comments, grabbing her collar, she began to wiggle her butt in extreme excitement and nearly out of his grasp. Saying though they had put up a fenced yard for her, she still managed to escape. Yup, that happens!
There are so many training things to say on that alone, but for another day.
I was able to grab her collar in my approach, but Im not so sure he ever would have been able to in this moment with out my help. She was giving every signal in her body that she was now unsure and to get away from him, he wasn't playing anymore.
🐾
Teaching (& learning how) to do collar grabs can literally save your dogs life one day.

Family 📸 time.💙 🐾❤️
Copper & Luella had some pretty awesome puppers. Cadbury is like the perfect blend of colors and temperament to both. 💗

Wait for "the foot"🐾
When Copper's unsure, the foot goes up🩵🐾
Frugal Jumps!! For some fun and games with the crew, NOT serious agility trials😁.
Shout out to & for always having something that will work!!

This little guy is soon to be 16 weeks old already! WOW time flies with puppers. We are still heartbroken for the family that was to bring him home to love, but some humans allergies are just so rare they make placement impossible. The GOOD news was, he never triggered her asthma allergies she normally suffers from being near dogs. (as I suspected he wouldnt being a 6th generation ALD) But being allergic to dog saliva, that is heartbreaking. Cause NO dog will work for her sadly.
🐾
We still have hopes that Cadbury will find a family to luv of his very own, but until that day comes, he has continued joined our own pack here at home. With his Mum, Pawp, big Sisters and Aunties.
🐾
Owning a pack has its challenges, somedays its pure highschool mean girls around here with jealousy over that one guy. However it can be very interesting and fun to see the pack behaviors come out and to learn from it as well. Things you'd never see with just one or even two dogs in a home.
🐾
All of my "Queens" look out for Cadbury, to make sure the baby isnt being ruff housed too much by big sisters. Watching Cadbury take after Pawp, closely watching dad's moves and mimicking them as the big male...its really fun to see in action.
🐾
Seeing the "alpha" dog Mocha, teach him she's top dog, and not to challenge her in that, but play on her terms is permissible and can even be fun! But respect your elders puppers!
🐾💗🐾
Cadbury's family may still be out there, but till we find them....he's one of our pack 🩵🐾
Located near Wingham On
Expected size: 42lbs like Copper, in a medium size
Please DM for more details on this little guy if interested.

Something I often hear is that very word google has picked up on, "knowledge". I strongly feel that it is very important to set potential pet owners up with as much knowledge as I possibly can, to help them make the best decisions for them and their new puppies. Educating them along every step of the way. From the imprinting we do with the neonate pups to what questions to ask at the vets...and everything inbetween. I am so happy to hear another client state they felt prepared to bring home that first family dog, yet again. You are very welcome Natalie (& Todd)!

14 weeks old now! what a sweetheart in todays photo session. And a little goofy with the licking of his chops.
We had the perfect family lined up for him as of Friday evening, but upon a visit to double check mum's allergy's yesterday, we discovered she wasnt allergic to his coat, but his saliva. Breaking out in hives on their drive home afterwards where ever he had given her kisses. Though the ALD is allergy friendly, its the coats. Dog saliva allergy is a whole other ball game and not a good one for placing a pup in. They were perfect for each other too.
So Mr. Cadbury is still sniffing for his family to luv. Till then he's hangin' out with the crew, mum, big sisters and even pawp occasionally.

Its Miss Hershey's GOTCHA DAY!!!! She has been waiting on her new pawrents to return from a trip abroad and then to get things ready at home to welcome her upon their return. But TODAY IS THE DAY!!!! She has a new name too, Miss Eddy, ( as in the ice cream brand? I wonder 🤔) but she will forever be my little Hershey Kisses. We are so happy for her to have found her people and are excited for her and them to begin their journey together. We will miss her terribly, but its time for this gal to head down the path with her new humans and get ALL the love and attention one on one that she deserves. 🐾💗🐾

This handsome fella came for a visit and tidy up groom this morning. 🥰🐾
Sir Gideon, (aka the Duke) Such a happy boy to be off the grooming table and back out in the gardens. He even got a sniff and smooch in with his girl, Sunny.
I wonder what we will see in pairing two toasted marshmallows next spring (2025)🤔
Mini marshmallows??? till they grow up that is, then full mediums. Gideon is a big boy!🐾🩵💗

🐾LONG POST warning, but it needs to be said🐾
💜🐾
There’s nothing uniquely special about Cadbury if one was merely looking at him aesthetically. No white markings, no highly desired coat colour. He doesn’t stand out in anyway.
Yet, hidden inside is the heart of a puppy that is the very essence of a little labradoodle that just wants to be loved.❤🐾
Being the last of nine, a few have asked me “what’s wrong with him?”
Which is a question that breaks my heart to hear someone not only say, but, to think. Because there is nothing “wrong” with him. He is just the last to find his people, his family, his companion to luv him as much as he will give that love unconditionally in return.
🐾
As a puppy evaluator, I strongly believe in matching our puppies to the right humans. Therefore, just because he is “the last” doesn’t mean there is anything “wrong with him”. It only means we’ve not found his people yet.
Those who’ve reached about him have simply not been good fits due to their schedules. Cadbury is a puppy that will thrive being able to be by his human’s side and not kept in a crate for long work days all alone. Some pups can do this easily as they are more aloof and can easily play on their own and amuse themselves. Take human interaction, or leave it.
This is not Cadbury.💜🐾
He will be a companion who will be up for what ever his human is up to and want to tag along. & one who will struggle to understand why he can’t.
🐾
In his evaluations he scored more sensitive to “sudden” sounds and “sights” but with continued imprinting and conditioning, these shape-able traits have become much more curious and inquisitive rather than retreating in somewhat fearful body language. He now puts his ears up and goes to see what that sudden noise was, or that object or item that was tossed in the air or bird that flew by, if its friend or foe. Always turning back to me, to see if Im there if he needs the support though.
🐾
His offence to toddlers is simply their unpredictability; he is NOT aggressive towards them but rather unsure and even scared of them. Children he has met who were older during our family/client visits (6 & up), he was quite playful with at times. But being the last of nine, his siblings were chosen over him due to other preferences clients had on their lists. Be it gender, colour, size etc
🐾
The labradoodle is a dog that was originally bred for a service therapy dog. In this, the trait of being VERY human focused was desired. A dog that is a companion to be at their owner’s side at all times.
🐾
💜This trait is VERY strong in Cadbury💜🐾. He is a companion type that wants to be loved and give love unconditionally to the right people for him. Those who are home or can take him with them where ever they may go. Those are his kind of humans that he is seeking. & there is nothing “wrong” in that.

Cadbury has the most intense natural connecting gaze to his eyes. It can be tricky to capture on camera cause he is always looking up to mine. (When he sits long enough from playing that is.) Currently they are a very stunning grey, but much like that of his big sister Sunny, I'm expecting they will go a lovely golden honey as he grows.
He is such a luv, always wants to be near by no matter what we are doing. A real contender to be a best bud & pal as he ages.
Smart too, this past week he's learned sleeping in his very own crate gets him a better nights rest ( as do I and Miss Hershey) and that sniff n' stroll's are a pawsome way to get both a little exercise but also work the brain and nose. He is also learning to sit for attention cause it sometimes brings him yummy treats! its amazing to watch their little brains work thru what you ask of them, then the lightbulb moment when they get it right!
🐾
Miss Hershey is spoken for and will head out in June, but Cadbury is still looking for his new best friend in life.
He will excel in a home where someone is home most days and would luv a companion by their side. He is unsure of littles but is intrigued and inquisitively playful with older children. His energy in play can keep up with them whether playing with the soccer ball in back yard or running on the trails. He's up for it!
