Well, the time has come to take deposits on these here bundles of Goldendoodle joy. I would love to keep them all (no, really) but I can't this time. I will let them go knowing they love they will bring to others, and appreciating the time I got with them.
I got Marley last Christmas from family in Texas, and she’s a true Southern belle Texan at heart.
The handler (literally) of Camper, the proud papa, said Marley showed all the characteristics of a therapy dog, and that I should have her tested. I may just for fun, but I don’t need a test to know she helped me get through this tough year. Thank you Lord
🙏👊
I would love to donate some pups in the future to folks who test and train therapy dogs, but for this batch, God's scratchmade therapy will be spread around a little bit, and I love that. (I’m also eager to start a pets-n-vets program—where shelter pets are matched with vets, who could take them home (with help if needed) or visit regularly.)
This is Marley's first litter, and I will probably ask her (really nicely) if she's willing to do one more.
😁
She’s the best. She did wonderfully, completely textbook—all thanks to me!
🤔🙄
I'm so grateful for her amazing female strength and courage.
On birthday night, I stayed up as long as I could since I knew they were coming. Somewhere around 1 or 2, I woke up to squeaks next to the bed, one of four spots I had made up as options. She was cleaning two pups—and minutes later, two more were on the way! After cleaning those, she seemed to be taking a break. I talked to her for a bit and tried to relax her (lol ME).
While she rested, I went to get towels from the other spots in the house I had stashed them. Suddenly my stomach dropped. I heard a faint squeak in the area of the living room “spot.” I ran in to find four puppies already born, cleaned, and rolled or crawled everywhere. They were under couches, stuck between towel and baseboard with a dust bunny or two...and terrifyingly cold. I was shivering as hard as they were, bawling as I ran around scooping them up and rushing them to Marley. Had I missed one? Could Lucy have gotten one? I searched frantically for hours, sick to my stomach. Through it all, Marley was calm. She warmed the wayward pups right up, and looked at me (with what Mazie says are the most human eyes she's ever seen on a dog) as if to reassure me it was all good. Thank you Lord
🙏👊
In the little over two weeks since, I have recovered, much to Marley’s relief. Pups’ eyes are opening and ears will follow. Then they grow grow grow and get yummy nutrients from momma, till they don't.
At that time they will be ready to bless eight new homes with all kinds of new presents
😁
I will begin crate and potty training for all pups, and will take care of first round of meds and such.
All this should mean the pups will be ready the week of Valentine's...WHAAAAT? Yes sir! I will be watching each and every pup to make sure they are absolutely ready to go.
Camper is a black F1B and Marley is a chocolate Multigen (multigens hopefully soon to be akc approved) if you like to know the back story.
Marley's hair is thick and velvety yet plenty curly, whereas Camper's is pretty perfectly average doodle coat. Both are around 50 lbs.
Deposits will be taken starting now and the pick of pup order will be based on deposit order. Deposits are 300 and are refundable as long as all pups sell. (If they don't all sell, you’ll be paying me 300 to keep it and I thank you
😘
There are 6 beautiful doodlepups available for 1,800 each. All 6 are handsome boys. I have pics below with collars to identify them as they grow, and I can't help but name them (although I won't address them by any names directly as they grow).
One of the many benefits of getting a pup from this litter is that you don't have to sign anything saying you won't breed your doodle, nor be charged a very, very large fee to not sign such a paper.
I have had dogs my whole life, I love them and they love me. I have NEVER had a dog as sensitive and attentive as Marley. Aside from no shedding and stuff, she listens to everything I say (!) in complete sentences(!!) and then does what I ask (!!!) I’ve never seen anything like it. (One time in the back yard, I yelled NO at her loundly and harshly with my finger pointed at her from about 20 feet away, and she sat up on her butt and fell over backwards, I kid you not. I'm so lucky to have her, and wish the same for you in one of these precious pups!
