***RARE OPPORTUNITY***

Searching for a guardian home (this will be your forever dog) for Catcher. He is the cream of the crop- pick of his litter- best that we breed. He will be a year old on 9/29. He is fully trained and has ZERO bad habits. He does not dig, bark, jump up on people or counter surf. He has not had an accident since he was 6.5 wks old. He has impeccable house manners: His recall is 100%. He is fully trained both off leash & on. He is the grandson of Sugar who is the granddaughter of the infamous Rutland Manor Baby Joey. LakeRidge Take Me Out To the Ballgame “Catcher” is the son of Country’s Joker and LakeRidge Uptown Girl Madison Avenue “Maddy”, He is a small medium - a couple inches shorter then his Mom. Anyone who has met him will tell you he is a spitting image of Maddy. He has a gorgeous natural stance. He will absolutely thrive in a home where he is not the only dog. He enjoys humans but also LOVES to
play with ANY dog willing, He is gentle & loves to chase and be chased. He never gets the “zoomies”. He is a very confident dog yet not cocky. He will
snuggle.enjoys baths and being groomed. He is extremely well socialized.

The best home for him would have at least one other dog (if it’s a male & in tact it’s fine). Cannot place him with an in tact female. Be prepared to meet me with Catcher & the members of your household. I’d also like the opportunity to visit your home.

Catcher will be registered with both WALA & ALAA. At the end of the contract I pay to neuter as long as the contract is completed. (you pay for day to day expenses such as you normally would for a pet ie; food , grooming, toys etc. he is up to date on vaccinations and has his next visit which I will incur the expense of in October. He will be fully
Tested hips, elbows, patellas,‘cardiac & annually eye exam. He will have two genetic panels run. His parents are not carriers yet I still run panels on all of my dogs. I will be happy to take him to All appointments. He is a beautiful dark chocolate with a small small white parti marking on his chest. You even have the opportunity to earn money as I compensate for each viable litter consisting of 3 or more puppies each time he is studded out to a program similar to mine $300. If I decide to breed him to Heidi or Shelby (all unrelated) I do not provide compensation.

HE IS NOT FOR SALE.

I do provide free boarding up to 3x per year for a total of 2 weeks and as long as I do not have another boarder at the time or a litter on the ground. I would prefer you are no longer then 60m from killingly ct unless you are willing to drop him off when needed. He has a beautiful coat & whichever family he ends up must be special. He is a GREAT dog!! Pic is of him in a full coat. He is ready to meet his forever family now❤️

1st time eating (Heidi’s 4 girls)

06/16/2024

Heidi’s puppies were moved downstairs today. Was a full day affair of disinfecting panels, flooring & neither Heidi nor her puppies liked the change. Change was necessary!! They kept getting out of their pen & frustrating Heidi. She can only make so much milk & they all have belly’s. She is only able to nurse 2-3 at a time. I’ve even been feeding Heidi 4x a day to try to keep pace but it just isn’t enough. Introduced them to some yummy goats milk today. She will still nurse just not full time- maybe a few times a day. Meanwhile, Maddy’s pups are serious eaters. Yesterday they had pork tenderloin. Today chicken. Tonight turkey. They eat, drink, sleep, play, wrestle, p**p, sleep, eat, p**p rinse repeat😂I’ve got Maddy’s puppy’s in my dining room on the side of Heidi’s pups. I think Maddy’s pups were definitely curious but won’t introduce till Heidi has fully weaned her pups. Maybe another 7-10 days. Every litter I’ve ever had LOVES to snuggle up on a soft fleece blanket. Don’t worry! I’ve got you covered. Sending home fleece blankets! Heidi’s pups not yet interested in playing with toys. Still sleeping quite a bit. Going to take my crew for a walk while the going is good. Will likely powerwash my back porch tomorrow & MAYBE Maddy’s puppy’s paws will touch some lush green grass for the first time!

06/13/2024

So grateful I followed my gut instinct and bred her❤️

Check out LakeRidge Labradoodles’s post.

Luke’s positions are hilarious😂 a bomb could go off & he still would not move😂🙌🏻

I have two pups available in Heidi’s litter. Heidi had 4 females. All are parti’s. 2 are black & white parti’s, 1 is choc/white parti & the 4th is is a dark caramel parti. If you are looking for a specific color, I will tell you that I am not the breeder for you. I work hard to get to know each and every family and sacrifice a lot of time to get to know each and every puppy myself. I do not raise them in kennels or crates. I do not have employees They are each handled at least a dozen times a day. They are constantly being exposed to new sounds and smells and soon, new textures and toys. .By the time they go home, they are well adjusted, about 90% house trained, acclimated to a crate, understand simple commands, can do 4-6 stairs, have their first parvo & distemper on board, have been wormed twice, vetted, microchipped & f***l is sent out for a comprehensive. They are mini’s..

I will attach to this post Heidi’s Mother & Father. Heidi was a part of the 1st litter from this pairing. The pairing was repeated twice more. Her parents are both OFA excellent and Heidi tested in the 90th percentile for Pennhip. Heidi is registered with both WALA & ALAA. She is 1 of 5 that is a working service dog today from the same litter. She is my most intelligent dog. I nearly lost the whole litter when Maddy saved the day & nursed them for just a day until Heidi’s milk came in. Heidi had been stung by a white faced wasp just 72 hrs prior to giving birth. She never left their side once. She has been an incredibly attentive Mother. I will attach a few photos from this harrowing experience. The right family for these puppies will be a family where someone is home during the day. These puppies just turned 2 weeks this past Saturday & have had their eyes open for the last 5 days or so. Ears are open as well. They are walking. They are such beautiful puppies. I care very much where each pupoy lives. I never just sell to sell a puppy. I raise them as if they are my own and work hard to give them the very best start at life as possible.

I was hoping I’d have a family with young children as these puppies are so calm, sweet natured, gentle & come with a 5 year warranty. They are all thriving. All 4 just reached the 2 lb mark. These are going to be very easy to train puppies if you have never owned a dog before. They are hypoallergenic and will never shed. They will be snuggle bugs, loving, loyal and some could test to be an alert dog. They will be agile, enjoy wooded trails and will be beautiful as they mature with their markings.

Their go home day is July 20th. I do not intend on keeping any beyond the 20th to train. It’s been several years since I’ve had a Summer to just enjoy my dogs and I’d love to visit my son in Newport and the Cape with my crew. If you are interested in a puppy but perhaps the timing doesn’t quite line up, I can recommend a couple of different board and train programs local to me that I would trust wit my own dogs. This will always be a special litter in my heart because of how selfless Maddy was on saving their beautiful lives. It was such a moving experience and I am grateful that I was able to witness it!! Puppies are still currently in my bedroom. I do have a guardian family for this litter as I am holding one back for use in my breeding program. A $500 deposit would guarantee you a puppy from this litter. The remaining amount- half is due @ 4 weeks of age and the remainder at 7 weeks of age.

Your puppy will go home with 30 days of insurance compliments of Trupanion. They will be well socialized and have the opportunity to play with my 2 young nephews. My biosecurity is zipped up tight. You will always have a lifetime of support from me. I do highly recommend the Baxter & Bella training program online in addition to at least one in person basic obedience course. If you sign up for Baxter & Bella, it costs $178 & change for a lifetime membership, use the code Lakeridge25 for a 25% off discount. I send home lots of toys to get you started.

Puppies will mature to be 18-24 lbs. I used to think mini’s were an accessory. I couldn’t have been more wrong! They eat less, take up less real estate, have the same exact calm temperament you can expect to see from a medium. Just took all 5 for a 5 mile hike a few days ago. All 5 kept pace. I find my mini’s are easier to travel with. They jump in & out of my SUV, quicker & lighter to bathe, easier to keep up with brushing & this litter I have such expectations! I can only hope they have many of Heidi’s mannerisms. Heidi and the sire of the litter; Grizz both have had OFA hips, elbows, patellas, cardiac, eyes tested annually, pennhip and a full genetic panel and are clear on all. In addition, Heidi has had coat and color testing. Any family that would like proof of such is welcome to ask:

I am located in Killingly, Ct: While I do offer shipping, I much prefer to meet in person. I can deliver to either Logan Or TF green in Providence should you wish to fly with your puppy in cabin. I am sandwiched in between Central Ma & 2 minutes from the Foster, RI border. I am 45 min from the greater Boston area, about 2 hrs from NY and 25m from Providence, RI.

Please share if you know of anyone that might be interested. I love them so much and want them all to have the most beautiful life❤️

Check out my Instagram for reels of Heidi in a full coat. She is such a beautiful dog when in a full coat. So graceful, light on her feet, has never met a dog she did not love. I simply wanted to wait to fill Heidi’s litter so I knew for certain all were 💯 healthy and thriving as they should be!!

Please share🙏🏻 hoping to attract the special families out there who are ready to add a special puppy to their famil

Maddy my best communicator last night found ANY ball she could to tell me “c’mon Mom!! Let’s go outside and play ball”! They love ALL balls but especially the hartz bacon scented balls or ANY ball that either squeaks, bounces high or lights up. Bonus if the ball does all that & more😂 if you buy the bacon scented balls just remember the only color they cannot see is green. I typically buy the neon pink or neon orange balls! It’s a must own for every dog! They also all prefer the smaller ball (they come in 2 sizes).

1st time eating

Almost ready for toys

06/05/2024

Heidi’s little bundles 11 days old ❤️❤️❤️❤️

06/03/2024

Nose pigments starting to come in. They do have ears & eyes open but to capture it on video or a photo is a rarity. Not open very long. They are walking but maybe 5/6 steps. They do LOTS of sleeping & are nice & comfy with the AC on. This boy I dubbed Luke is super sweet. He gives me lots & lots of puppy kisses & has the best smelling puppy breath ever!!! They will still have puppy breath when they go home for a short time.

06/02/2024

Heidi’s pups are a week old. She’s finally starting to take some breaks.

Maddy’s pups turned 2 weeks on Thursday. Just Frankie is walking & I have seen Luke’s eyes very briefly. Their ears are definitely open.

Maddy’s puppy’s will be going home July 12-14th & Heidi’s July 20th or 21st. If you are a family in either litter and do not have an established veterinarian, you should make some calls this coming week & make an appointment. One important question you should be asking is if your veterinarian offers titer testing. It is extremely detrimental to do puppy series vaccinations. Over vaccinating a puppy can lead to all kinds of problems from food insensitivities to yeast in ears. If a vet won’t titer, find one who will! Maddy’s puppy’s will need a 36” crate & Heidi’s will need a 28” or totally fine to use whatever you have. They aren’t in a crate for long (majority of pups). That is literally all you need to take your pup home other than food.

Heidi is a total pro. Ears should be opening soon!

05/29/2024

Ears almost open. Maybe tomorrow!!

05/28/2024

Heidi’s puppies. She won’t leave her puppies unless a WHOLE LOT of encouragement. Even then …she sprints outside & right back in & I hand deliver her meals❤️

05/27/2024

Frankie’s 1st steps. One of Maddy’s pups. Eyes & ears anyday!

05/26/2024

Shutting phone off. Will respond to messages or emails when possible. Thank you for understanding!

Going on day #4 of no sleep. All the trials and tribulations poor Heidi had to go through with getting stung by a Wasp so worth it for this very moment in time. This is the best kind of love right here. Such strong, beautiful puppies. Super proud of both my girls. 4 healthy girls & she is out like a light. Here’s a few pics. I’ll remain on puppy duty so she can pass out. All 4 are nursing & the cleanest puppies on planet Earth💯
