Dear Janet,

I wanted to let you know how much we LOVE our new puppy!! She is doing so good. Her name is Molly and she is is the funniest looking dog we have ever seen. Everone says she looks like a stuffed animal. She is due for her last set of shots on the 24th. Our vet is very intereseted in getting one. I gave her your number and website. She thought she was beautiful and so does everyone that sees her. Thanks for everything! Just wanted to let you know how she was doing. The Wehners

Dear Janet,

This is Baker...He was from your January 24th litter. The only boy. He is such a good dog and never stops amazing me with how intelligent he is, sometimes too much so for his own good! Thank you so much for helping me to find him, he is now a huge part of my life and my family.

Thanks again, Elizabeth

Hi There!

Just wanted to tell you how absolutely WONDERFUL Bandit is. (We were gonna call him Oreo but with his mask on his face it bacame Bandit. He is quiet and affectionate and extremely smart. He is loved by everyone he meets...even Grandpa Reynolds...invited Bandit back to visit anytime.

Carole, OK (cavapoo)

Dear Janet,

Just wanted to give you a quick note on "Maggie" (cavapoo) That is her name, by the way, she's doing great! She is the sweetest little puppy and has yet to make a wimper. She's eating, drinking and doing her business outside and now fast asleep in her crate beside my daughter's bed. My daughter (and son) had a fit and love her so much. My other dogs like her too. I'll keep you posted, she is the perfect match for us.She is so smart, she learns a new trick every day. Thanks,Lisa AL

Janet,Just a quick update. Roxie is doing terrific; almost totally housebroken and learning some great manners. She is a real sweetie. We love her to death. It looks like you have a lovely new litter of cavapoos. They certainly are mild natured dogs willing to please and very intelligent. She gets groomed next Tuesday and I promise to send an up to date photo. Thanks for the lovely pup! Her vet, really loves her best! Carol

Janet,We had a great check up with the Vet! Toby was so good and the whole office staff just loved him. He's doing great with eating, crate training and going outside to eliminate. What a wonderful disposition. We are very grateful to you for letting us add Toby to our lives. Thank you

Joanne from SC

Janet,

just wantd to tell you that she is the sweetest puppy we have ever seen. Andrea named her Cookie. She thinks she looks like a chocolate chip cookie. No one in Mamphis has ever heard of or seen a schnoodle, so she gets lots of attention.

Thanks so much We love her.

Dear Janet,

I have attached a picture of Pumpkin with my youngest son, Mitchell, Pumpkin is settling in well. She checked out well at the vet, so thank you for a healthy pup! I have already started training her and she is very smart ... she can "watch me" sit, stay and come with a treat! We are so happy that we went with a schnoolde!

Thanks again Lori South Caroline

Janet

Hey - Just wanted to drop you a note letting you know how much we enjoy our Cavapoo, Scarlett. She is almost 5 months and is the best dog ever! My three kids adore her (as do my husband and I). Here are some pictures for you and you have my permission to post it/them to your website if you decide to do so.

Thanks again,

Angela Waller

While he dotes on all 5 of us, he is most attentive to the youngest, Mason (2 1/2 yrs old)...what a great bond they have! There are several other doodles in our neighborhood, and I have to say that Killian is by far the most beautiful one I've ever seen (a mother's bias, I know!) :-) You guys just did a fabulous job in breeding- along with his good looks, his temperment is top-notch!

Hope all is well with you!

Lisa, GA

Hey Janet! I thought I'd update you on Killian. He's almost 10 months old now, and weighs about 50 pounds! He's one big puppy, that's for sure! I'm sending you a few pictures of him from Memorial Day weekend on the lake. He loves boat rides, and he found out that he loves the water - he learned to swim on this most recent trip to the lake, and that's all he wanted to do! Thank you so much for such a wonderful addition to our family. He is so friendly with everyone he meets, and plays so well with other dogs!

Janet,

we are so in love with Divot! He is very smart, loving, and is the center of attention. We are trying hard not to spoil him. No people food and he sleeps while we eat. Loves the golf cart and is actually patient while I hit the ball. He doesn't really like his kennel yet, but they say it will come. He already knows sit, stay, come and speak at 12 weeks!

Regards,

Tom and Brenda

Niceville, FL

HI From Boston, Janet!!!!

Just wanted to send a quick update and say thanks!!!

Reese, our (black and white Cavapoo) we got in June is the best addition to our family!Our girls love her and she is just the sweetest, most lovable puppy around!

She came home, and just fit right in.

Enjoy!!! The Ameraults

We just wanted to say another thank you for sending us the best puppy in the entire world. Lola May is so spoiled- she watches cartoons in the morning, gets wrapped in a blanket after every bath, and loves to wake everyone up in the morning by jumping on their beds. We don't remember how we spent our time before we got Lola May! We want to add Lola May to your alumni site. Thanks again for our "puppy luv" she is the best EVER!

Lindsay, CA

Dear Mom & Dad,

I just wanted to send a photo of me that was recently taken when I went to Doggie Camp for a few days. As you can see, I was a good boy for Santa.

I love my new home here in Jacksonville, Florida. I have a big back yard to play in and lots of toys to play with. It's hard to believe it's been over six months since I saw you last.

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!

Love,

Rocky

(and his adoptive parents & brother - Brian, Tammy & David Smith)

Dear Janet

The wonderful Goldendoodle we “adopted” from you in early December for our daughter in DC is now almost four months old and a real love. His official name is “Gus” and he lives up to his name. I often call him, Gus, the DC Dog! Allie and Gus have adjusted wonderfully to city life and have found every park, field, dog park, and places to play all around Capitol Hill. Why, he has even made an appearance on Capitol Hill and in a Congressman’s office! Gus’ vet there happens to be the one the Bushes use for their pets! Judy

.Janet,I just wanted to thank you once again for the most wonderful puppy/dog. He has surpassed any expectations that I had set for him. He is not even 5 months old and is house trained, crate trained, can sit, slay, roll over, and come. He is unbelievably intelligent and I'm still shocked daily by his actions. He loves everyone!! He is great with all people, dogs, cats, and even horses. I have never once seen him show any signs of aggression. I couldn't ever imagine my life without him!! Thanks,Erin

.Hi Janet,

Just wanted you to know that we can't believe we've had Abby less than four weeks - she's such a part of our family we can't remember a time she wasn't here. She's a wonderful dog - smart and full of puppy love. She does very well on a leash, and has learned sit, down, and stay. She will come most of the time, but she's still young (and still a dog :-)

While she looks very serious in this picture, she loves to play!

Best Wishes,

Jane Farrell

Janet, I wanted you to see "Clancy Macgregor Coburn", he was one year old on May 5th. When he was 4 months old we took him on a month road trip to New England and Canada. He did not have one accident nor chew up anything he wasn't suppose to. Clancy has been a real joy and really helped me adjust to retirement. I just wanted you to know the results of your work. Our best to you and your family, Sharlene Coburn (Brooksville, Florida)

Hi Janet,I was cleaning out my e-mails today and luckily can across the pictures

that you had sent us last year of our now 1 year old Goldendoodlepuppy, Linus. He is sooo wonderful and I wanted to tell you that he isnow a whopping 75 pounds! All legs, very wavy golden/creamy hair. I

have spent a ton of time training him and am just shocked how smart he

is. We really adore him. I'm off to a meeting, but will take a pictureof him today, so you can get the most up-to-date look at him. Justwanted to tell you that he is very loved and safe up here.

Katie

Janet,

It is hard to believe that it has been two months since we picked up Harold

from you. Harry is from Holly and Dantes 12/24/06 litter. We have become

so attached to him. He is a beautiful goldendoodle (of course I'm biased),

has the perfect temperment for our family and fits right in with our little

Yorkie, Belle.

Harry is also extremely intelligent and loves the water down here in Panama

City, FL. He is proficient with the doggy door and is nearly completely

housebroken with only the occasional accident. He is also doing very well

in obedience school. He picked up quickly on the sit, lay, leave it, take

it, come, and stay commands. He is also doing well with loose leash

walking. We often take him to public places and he has no problems staying

by my side on the leash! We're actually thinking about getting him

certified as a therapy dog when he is old enough. We'll keep you posted.

I have attached a few pictures. Again, thanks for our new family member

and I would recommend your goldendoodles to anyone. By the way, he now

weighs 33lbs and is still growing.

Dear Janet,

Attached is a pic of Darby. He is around 4 months old and doing great. We are lucky to have each other. He is a love...an attraction in the neighborhood. At his recent check, he was up to 15 pounds.

Best regards,

The Brady Family

New Canaan, CT

SAMPSON UPDATE

Sampson is doing well. He is so sweet and great with Luke. He lovesriding in the car. I can't believe how mellow he is. He also is getting really big. I hope all is well in GA. We really love thistime of year and spend a lot of time outside. Take Care - Hext.

Here are Duke and Justin at home in Toronto, Canada. They are great pals and have been inseparable since they came together last March. Duke is only 17 lbs and has a wonderful, loving and very friendly temperament. He is Allie and Joey's baby. Allie is expecting more babies this November

Hi Janet

We just wanted to give you an update on how Maddy is doing. She was one of your Christmas puppies last year, so she is now 10 months old and 55lbs!!!We absolutely adore her and can't imagine our home without her. She's perfect because she loves to play and cuddle, which is the best combination. Thanks for the great dog!

The Pryors

Hi Janet, just wanted to update you on Champ. He is from Kaley and Dante's May litter. He is now 5 months old and doing great. We bought him for my son George. We got off to a rough start with him mainly due to my over eager children. They had to learn not to play too rough with him and also to be calm with him. Champ was easy to house train. I can't even remember the last time he had an accident. He graduated from obedience school and is moving on to the next level. He was the only dog in his obedience class who could stay in a one minute sit. The obedience trainer said it was remarkable for a 4 month old puppy to be able to do that. He never meets a stranger and is friendly with everyone. Everywhere we go people ask what kind of dog is he. He thinks everyone has come to see him when we go to the park. He is so intelligent and has been so easy to train. He loves to play football with the boys in the yard and also likes to play on the skateboard. He can push himself on the skateboard. He also loves to ride in the car. If he hears me get my car keys, he comes running. Thanks for such a wonderful family member. We all just love him! He will lie on the floor next to George and wait for him to finish his homework. George brags about him like a proud parent! I am sending a picture of him taken in the car.

Thanks again!

The Turner Family

thanks. She really is an adorable dog. We are training together in puppy kindergarten, and she just wants to be good. She is the star of the class b/c she is so smart and sweet. The funny thing about Ana is she relates to Golden retrievers as her breed b/c of her mother, but she is also a true lap dog. She just has to be on your lap - must be the poodle in her. Will send more pics later. We just moved.

Ariane.

Janet,

Attached is a picture of Tyson. He turned 1 year old on November 6th. He had a special can of dog food and a few extra treats. He is doing great and is great pet for our kids. He did start chewing up toys so he is back in the crate when we leave. Most of the time he goes with us now that the weather is has cooled off. He goes with me to pick up my kids at school and he loves it. People always come over to see him because he is so cute. He did well in his training. The only thing he is not good at is the command "come". If he is outside playing he never comes. He never wants to go back inside. However, if I put him out on the enclosed patio by himself he will sit and cry at the door to go back inside. He always wants to be right by everyone. Just wanted to give you and update.

Jennifer

Janet, I have been meaning to send you an email for FOREVER!!!! I wanted to thank you for the wonderful puppy Payton that you helped us with. You shipped her to us on April 22 of 2006. She is the first dog I’ve ever had and she is SPOILED rotten. I just turned 40 and I had a rare muscle cancer when I was 37. I purchased her as a rehab dog for Children’s Hospital. Well, I had her in about three series of professional training and our trainer once getting to know Payton felt that wouldn’t be the best thing for her. She’s a hair shy. She is glued to my side and she is MY rehab dog. J Our family is CRAZY about her. CRAZY!!! We are so crazy about her we are seriously discussing another dog. I told my husband that I was thrilled with our first purchase from you and perhaps we should talk to you about another puppy. We are wanting the next dog to be bigger. Maybe the size of a goldendoodle or labradoodle but concerned that we want the next dog to be like brilliant like Payton (our cavapoo). She has the perfect activity level. We walk her 20-30 minutes in the morning, 20-30 minutes at night and she’s pretty pooped out during the day. She just sits by our side. She’s a great sleeper at night. She’s PERFECT. Any ideas on another breed that your could help us with that is between 30-50 lbs. pooh mix and really super smart?

Just wanted to wish you and your family a very happy holiday and a joyous new year. We cannot begin to tell you how smitten we are with Ryleigh. She has a terrific personality, enjoys everyone and everything and has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is a veteran traveler having been in 14 states since we got her and has enchanted all of our friends. She is gorgeous (of course) and we have had many people follow us (in different states I might add) to see what she is and where we got her. Perhaps you have gotten a few new clients from her referrals... I am sending a few pictures and one of her with our Maine Coon, Niles who is her best pal. We hope in a few years to add to our family with another baby doodle but for now we are enjoying our one on one time.

Warm Regards,

Amy and Rich

Hi Janet,We have been meaning to call or write to you...but with a new puppy and the holidays we have been BUSY.Buddy is just a joy and a wonderful addition to our family. He is the perfect combination of "sweetness" and "spunk".

Yesterday, we discovered he loves playing football with the boys in the neighborhood! I think he scored something like 10 touchdowns!!!

Happy New Year!Robert, Rhonda, Hunter & Buddy

Hi Janet – please forgive my long delay in writing to you. We adopted Spotty (girl) in October 2005. She has been a joyous addition to our family. I am attaching a photo of her so that you can see what a big girl she grew up to be, and I think a perfect example of all things good about Goldendoodles from the physical appearance to the gentle disposition.

This is a picture of my kids with Wrigley. We already have the name picked out for our next boy, how many boys do you have left? Wrigley is light blonde do you think the other pups will be light? I will be happy to go online and put in some comments about your kennel, we were very pleased with the service and Wrigley is a great dog!

Janet, I regret that I have not sent you any pictures of T-Bone at 1

year. Attached is a shot that I took this AM from my phone and one that

I took last fall of him in his favorite sitting place...the pool steps.

He is a real lovable teddy bear and demands constant attention (which we

are pleased to give him). He is great with the kids and other dogs of

all sizes...he has a great attitude and demeanor...he is awesome! I

will make it a point to send you some more pictures if you would like.

Thanks again and please feel free to use us a reference. Cheers, Jimxt.

Iggy is now 2 1/2 years old and has brought so much happiness and joy into our lives, something neither my wife, daughter and myself thought was possible. He goes about 65 lbs and not an oz of fat, my wife wouldn't allow it. Every time we go out to the store or to Pet smart we spend most of our time interpreting for Iggy as about the only thing he hasn't mastered is the English language, he does however understand Spanish as my wife talks to him in both English and Spanish. As you can see by the photos, Iggy has grown up to be quit the personable young man. During the summer it is hard to keep him from cooling off in the pool. Last year some friends of ours visited us from Main and brought some live Maine lobster. Iggy didn't miss a beat and tried to herd them into the pot. Our family can't thank you enough for allowing us to have the pleasure of Mr. Iggy. If your ever in the Charlotte/Concord NC area please let us know I'm sure Iggy would welcome the visit. I hope you enjpy the pics

Sincerely, Paul, Pirris, Aura and of course Iggy

PS he has the uncanny knack of burpping like no dog I have ever known, and always gets a laugh from people. e to

Hi Janet! Here are some snaps of one of the English Creme Goldendoodle puppies born in July '07. He was one of the smallest of the litter and weighs in now at around 36 pounds. We named him Dexter. He is a fluff ball of love and fun. We ( and many admirers) think he is adorable. I just love his coat (he sheds a little) but mostly we love his personality. He loves running around his huge backyard and is very patient when the kids pile on him for regular love fests. He is a keeper! Thought you would like to know how he is doing. Thanks, The Soderbloms

Hi Janet,

We are in love with Gibson. He is the absolute best dog either of us have ever owned. He is so smart, at 11 weeks can already sit, come, walk well on a leash, fetch, and knows many commands. He is such a sweetie too, he's not happy unless he is cuddled up to us. He has been great with other dogs and all ages people. We couldnt be happier. We may have to get another one soon!

Diana and Justin Evans

Dear Janet,

Just wanted to let you know how much we love our mini-goldendoodle puppy. We named her Elly and at 9 months she weighs 40 lbs. She is a great dog that gets along with all people and other animals. She is very athletic and loves to run and retrieve her tennis ball as long as someone will throw it for her. She loves the water and went straight in the ocean on her first trip as a puppy. We take her everywhere we go and she has already made numerous trips to the beach and 3 college football games. She does not shed at all and it has been surprisingly easy to maintain her coat. We have left her coat all natural but she loves to go in our lake so we will trim her soon. Sorry we have not sent a picture sooner.Thanks so much,Mark and Karen JonesRainbow City, Al

Dear Janet,

Hi. Just wanted to update you on Milo, our cavapoo. He is now 4 months, and about 10 lbs. He is doing great; is potty trained, can do many tricks-sit, lie, roll over, stay, and fetch. He is very smart and learns quickly. He loves to tease the kids with his toys (and their things too!). He is affectionate and friendly and loves to meet other people and dogs.

Thanks for breeding such a wonderful puppy. Deanna

I hope you and your family are well. Riley is doing just great … he is so much fun he makes me laugh every-day. My daughter Meghan has been living with us following brain surgery and I believe Riley helped her morale in a big way. When we picked him up he had some stomach problems which turned out to be nothing but nerves from leaving his mom and siblings. He is now 36 lbs. We took him on a trip to Wash DC this past week and he was great the entire trip. My son in Wash DC is a dog lover and thinks he looks like a Sesame Street character. I take him everywhere I go. He is house trained, sits, stays, downs, fetches balls in the dark, shakes hands and sleeps between mom and dad all night without a peep. He loves the car and sits next to me on our golf cart like his has been riding in it for years. I can walk him without a leash and he stays within 20 yards and checks back with me every 30 seconds.He smiles a lot and so do we! Best, Bob

Here's little henry. We're getting along fine. It's quite a change to be a new mom. He's a sweet boy. Thank you Janet. Henry is the perfect addition to my family. My parents have been trying to take him to Houston even before they met him.

I hope things are going great for you and your family. I'm sure you're making more familes happy with lovely little doodles. A lot of people stop and ask what kind of dog Henry is.

Have a great weekend, Katie Grese

Hi Janet!!!

Here is a picture of Sadie Lady Duncan. She will be 1 year old on June16. She is doing great. She is my buddy ( even though we got her for the boys ). Sadie loves car rides, going on the boat, swimming, and chasing birds in the yard. She was accidentally shaved in January by a groomer so her hair is a little short still. She is so smart!!! She learned sit, down, stay, and high 5 with hand signals by 4 months old. Stay is a work in progress though because she just wants to be next to you all the time. We went to dog park near us and met Sadie's half brother. They loved each other. Thanks so much for letting us have our baby girl!!!!The Duncan's Kennesaw, GA

Hey Janet and family,

I just wanted to give you an update on Malibu. She will be turning 1 this month. I can't believe this year has gone by so quickly. Malibu is a reddish cavapoo. Everyone is always so curious to hear about her breed, amazed at how smart she is. She rings the bell to go out to the potty, caught on to that the very first weekend that she came home.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful family member that we rec'd from you. The girls love her so much and I love her the most...She is always so happy to see you and I declare she can understand English.The Steele Family

.Hi Janet, just wanted to give you an update on "Teddy". He has quickly become the central point of the family! What a kind smart, beautiful dog, it's hard to remember what life was like without him! Thank you for all your help, and for a wonderful animal, attatched is the latest picture, he is growing like a weed as you can see. Mike

Dear Janet,

We have had Wrigley for over two years now. Her parents are Dantes and Ellie. I cannot begin to tell you how much she has changed our lives and the lives of my family. She filled a spot in our hearts that we didn’t know could be refilled. She has been a true blessing in our lives and I am so thankful that I found your website and my precious girl. Everywhere we go people ask us what she is and where they can get one and we proudly say she is a Goldendoodle and give them your website. Thank you for our gorgeous girl she has filled our world!!

Sincerely, Lindsey and Tommy DeLaMare And the rest of my family.

Hi Janet,

Its diana with Gibson the Goldendoodle from your 12/7 Molly/Dantes litter. We had some more awesome pictures we just wanted to share with you. Your very welcome to do what you like with them. We hope to get another one from you in the next year. Hopefully a dark red girl? Thanks!

Diana
