OOOODLES OF DOODLES....
Hi Kim,  I was just thinking about you and that a year ago our home was fun & crazy with a new Goldendoodle puppy by the name of "Karma" that we got from you.  I know I sent you some pictures before and I am adding some again, but I just have to tell you that Karma has grown into the BEST DOG that I have EVER had!!!(She was a challenge as a puppy!) :-)  I think a big part of the challenge was that I was home with her all day and not only did I have to train her but I had to train the kids(and my husband) on how to act and what to do around her! To be able to teach her to be a good dog in the future.  Well all the hard work paid off!!!!!!  Everyone comments on how well behaved she is!  And they always want to know what kind of dog she is.  She is so funny, in the morning as soon as my husband gets out of bed she jumps on in his spot and lays on her back all spread out and makes herself comfortable.  I will then get up to see him off to wo rk and sometimes Karma doesnt even come downstairs off the bed.(I have never know a dog to want to sleep in!)  The days we do(sleep in) she is sooooo happy!  Another thing that happened was one day my oldest daughter came running inside yelling "we have a huge problem, you have to come outside to help"... it turns out that the girls were going up into the fort on the swing set and Karma decided that she could go up the slotted stairs to get into the fort as well.(I enclosed a picture of her up there)  When I went outside to see what the "problem" was I couldn't stop laughing, and had to run in to get the camera.  We feel so blessed to have found Karma and you have made that possible. So thank you for all that you do!!!!!!!!!  I saw your new website, it looks great!  A neighbor of ours just had to put his goldenretriever down,  I know he would like to get another one in the near future so I gave him your name.  Hope it works out for him!& nbsp;
Are you going to be having any litters next spring of Goldendoodles?  Around April,May or June?  If so please let me know, we may have to get another one from you! :-)  Take Care, Blessings to you and your family!!!  Lori, IL  10/08
   

Hi Kim!
Hey we saw Karma on your doodle page! :-)  The girls loved seeing it!  I can't believe Karma will be 2 in June. She is doing AWESOME!  She has free run of the house when we are gone and does great (we still keep the laundry room door closed since she still likes to steal shoes) It was nice to be able to put the crate away! She sure is a good dog!!!!  She spends her days chasing the geese away in the back yard and loves to hang out in front keeping watch over the neighborhood.  Every now and then she has her friend "Rocky" (also a goldendoodle) over to play.  Thanks again for such an awesome pup!  I'll keep sending pics.  Take Care,  Lori, IL  4/8/09

Brewer/Bear
Hi Kim,
My husband had emailed you about puppies and you told her about Kelli.  She couldn't keep Brewer because she didn't have time to spend with him so we called her and she brought Brewer over and both Kelli and Brewer liked us and our home so we have him now.  We had to put our great dane down at Christmas.  He had wobblers disease.  He also weighted 176 lbs so he was a big boy.  We were greatly saddened.  But now we have Brewer who we call Bear.  We also have a Jack Russell named Bruno and Brewer and Bruno were just too confusing.  Since Kelli sometimes called him Bear we just kept that name.  He just turned 2 in April and Bear and I are going to start obedience classes the first of September.  I'm having a little trouble getting him to come when I ask him to so we are going to get some help.  Anyway, I'm attaching some pictures.  He is a wonderful addition to our family.  Brenda Cunningham 8/21/08

Hi Kim,
thank you so much for such a wonderful dog. She is absolutly perfect. She weighs 63 pounds.  She is so loving and affectionate, also very goofy and fun. We were just asked by the groomer where we got her, they said she has the best teperment of any Golden Doodle they have seen. She thinks she is a human. We take her to the dog park a lot and she would submit to a chihuahua. She is so happy all the time,  and makes my heart burst with love whenever I look in her eyes.  Have a great day!  Sydne 2/09 

Riley
He is doing GREAT! We named him Riley! He seems to be adjusting well. He is a lot of fun. Here is a picture, we'll send more later.  Dana 2/09
Hello Kim
Lucy has adjusted well and our son Jack is in heaven.  She went into the vet yesterday and had a good check up.  Thanks so much- will forward pictures later.  Amy Kimball 2/09

Buddy 
Kim--just thought I would give you an update on "Dexter" who is now named "Buddy".  My daughter loves the Air Bud movies with Golden Retrievers, so that's how he got his new name.  Buddy is the most loving dog.  He loves to cuddle and has a great personality.  And, he's starting to catch on to going potty outside!  When we took him too a local park for a walk around the lake we were stopped by almost anyone we passed because everyone thinks he's so adorable.  I hired a service to come in every day while we're at work to play with Buddy and let him out over the lunch hour.  But, my father-in-law is so in love with Buddy that he asked us to cancel the service and he's coming over each day to play with the dog himself!  I'm attaching a few pictures so you can see how much he's grown already.  Thanks for the great addition to our family!

Hello Kim-We purchased our goldendoodle female puppy in Los Angeles.  Her birthday is January 17. Her name is now Emma and we adore her! I'm attaching a photo.  Michael, 5/20/09
*******************************************************************************************************hi kim
she arrived safe and sound .
she was totally surprised .
damielle has named her Rosie . She s doing great right now she is napping .
I has worked sat night so of course I fell asleep while trying to email you yesterday. We will be seeing the vet latter today .
Dani has her sleeping in her room (in her crate ) . on cue Rosie woke her up @ 130am to go out and couldn't get her back to sleep so my hubby put a chair next to her bed so0rosie could see herfrom the crate. That worked perfectly.
of course when Danielle left for school @ 630 am Rosie was crying ... Anf made danielle feel quilty . :( . she calmed down and so did Rosie once I came out to see her. Lol
using my phone to send this right now so will try and send pics asap.

She is here weve been home for a few hours! No accidents yet, she is adorable and is sleeping in her crate now! She is sooo cuddly, and happy and playful we all fell in love with her when we saw her. We named her isabella, Izzy or bella for short because we love izzy from the show greys anatomy! So she is named after her mommy in a sense. Our older dog is kind of just ignorning her lol. She ate 1/4 cup of her food with a little of the blue buffalo mixed in and the probiotics and the canned food, she scarfed it down! So hopefully it will work out well with transitioning food. So far so good and we are extremely happy. I'll send you some pictures if youd like. I took one of her in her halloween costume lol. Thank you sooooo much. You were great to work with and I am so glad we found you! If you need any references for the future I'd be happy to do that for you. Thank you! Lauren  10/31/09
  She's a giraffe!!!  :)  And is obviously "thrilled"!

Hi again. 
Here is two pics of my sweet boy, Jack.  We received him about two years ago from you.  I still cannot take him for a walk without being stopped by someone.  He is by far the prettiest doodle I have seen around here!  There is nothing you can do to aggravate Jack...he takes it all, smiling all the while.  Sweetest boy I have ever known!  :)  Lisa 6/24/09
Hi Kim.  I hope this finds you and your doggies well.  This is Lisa, from Wilmington, NC.  We purchased Jack...golden doodle from you two years ago and Oliver (Maltese) several months ago.  Here's pictures!  10/24/09

My daughter is living with us until next spring when she graduates from college and she has a golden doodle/bernese mountain dog that is 5 months old.  Stella loves her and will be extremely sad when she leaves.  It has certainly proven that she needs someone to play with.  Our shih tsu does not do it for her.  I will certainly be getting Stella a friend or she will be depressed!  Talk with you soon!
