And as you can see he’s growing into a gorgeous young ‘doodle…

There’s little doubt he’s going to be huge and very very strong…

And that is the main reason I am taking the lead in his training…

As he gets bigger and stronger I will need him to respect me for his and my good lol…

He will be able to go for his first walk outdoors next week – should be fun lol…

And the week after I’m going to take him to puppy classes – watch this space!!!

Millie didn’t do puppy classes as Neil took charge…

She’s such a well mannered and well behaved dog because we – Neil in particular – was very strict with her as puppy…

I used to worry we were maybe a little too hard – but oh boy has she turned out well…

MILLIE SHOWS WALLY HOW TO WAIT

Now to our Wally – and oh dear do we have some “issues” to sort out…

None more so than his behaviour at night – or come to that when left alone or I leave him – even for a few minutes…

I have known dogs that whine and bark when left alone – and regulars will remember Millie’s pup “Dave…”

Boy did that little ‘dood howl at night lol…

But with Wally it borders on hysteria…



WALLY THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY LOOKING CALM BEFORE THE STORM LOL


He cannot be left alone for even a moment without his almost manic behaviour appearing…

If I leave he throws himself around the house wailing and with much gnashing of teeth…

He cries whines barks and generally works himself up into such a state…

It’s even worse at night – last night it was 45 minutes before I had to comfort him…

I’m not joking when he say HYSTERICAL…

Neil has tried – just once – his tried and tested “pack leader” approach – but Wally became absolutely petfrified…

He yelped shook cowered and hid from Neil despite him holding out his fave treat…

It took half a day for Wally to even relax in a room with Neil…

I felt for them both lol…

So it’s going to have to be the long steady gradual way with Wally…

That means a heck of a lot of work – but I’m sure it will be rewarded in the end…

Now where did I put the Dog Whisperer book haha…

God bless her Millie is doing more than any of us to settle the little chap…

She really is a star and he and she adore each other…

It’s not all bad – Wally is a gorgeous Goldendoodle – funny cute and very loving…

And we all absolutely adore him – but for his sake and our sanity we have to crack this lol…

OK I’ll love and leave you all – thnaks for you kind messages very much appreciated…

And just a quick mention to a very clever Goldendoodle Doodle-Lu…

She was giving birth to her first litter the other night…

Mum was a little worried about things but luckily I was on line and able to take on the role of Cyber Midwife lol…

I’m pleased and proud to say mum and pups are doing great…

Until the next time…

Loads of love licks and wags – Millie ~ Kate and Wally

Got myself a new ‘doodle lol…

Say hello to Wally a strapping 12 week old Goldendoodle puppy…

I’m delighted to say Millie absolutely adores him…

Bless her heart she hasn’t left his side since he arrived 2 days ago…

OK here’s the story of Wally and me…

Neil and I had gone away for the weekend as it was my birthday…

We were in Liverpool to visit my eldest son and do the whole “Beatles thing”…

I’d spotted “Wally” on line and had fell in love immediately…

I mentioned it to Neil and he kind of shrugged lol…

After plying him with a few beers at the Albert Dock I suggested we got him…

What could he do but agree lol…

So the next day at the crack of dawn – and a bad hangover for Neil lol – we set off…

That’s a drive from Liverpool to deep into the fens of Lincolnshire – a very long drive…

Long story short we both fell and love and before we knew it he was home…

The first night Millie was staying with Biddy – Paddy and Lynn…

So we hoped he would settle easily and quite quickly after such a tiring day…

We were both absolutely knackered lol…

Wally made it quite clear he was not happy about sleeping alone…

He actually screamed – and I mean – screamed the place down…

I tried to ignore it but he’d had such a day I settled on the sofa and he thankfully slept through…

So to the grand introduction…

Wally was very stand offish – and not at all sure about his new surroundings…

However as soon as Millie appeared this scared shaking little chap went into “doodle mode” big time…



As you can see Millie was a little bemused by this little noisy upstart…

But soon took charge and gently put him in his place…




MILLIE AND WALLY FRIENDS FOR LIFE ALL READY

As I said – since then she hasn’t left his side…

They play so very well together and he follows her around copying all she does…

He has really taken to me but was a little unsure about Neil at first…

But thanks to Millie showing the way he’s now coming out of his shell a bit…

So there you have it – a new dood to my brood…

Could it be the last…haha…

I have two weeks off work so plenty of time to get to know him and him me…

And plenty of time to update you all with the news and photos…

I have a ton of photographs from the last two ‘Doodle Meets…

So until the next time…

Lots of love – Kate ~ Millie and little (not for much longer he’s gonna be HUGE!!!) Wally XxX




SLEEPING OFF YET ANOTHER MAD PLAY SESSION

MILLIE TAKING A WELL EARNED BREAK IN NORFOLK

FIRSTLY my deepest apologies for the total lack of updates…

No excuses other than life has a nasty habit of taking over lol…

And there’s certainly a lot of “dashing” about lol…

The good news is I promise the Goldendoodle Diary updates will get back to normal !!!

OK the last time we met I was saying a sad goodbye to my baby boy Dave the Doodle real name Max lol…

Oh boy has he grown into an absolute honey monster…

WOW I MEAN THAT GUY IS HUGE !!!


You might also notice that some of the galleries are missing…

Neil assures me they will return – but he upgraded the script and well – Mr Techno Head not lol…

I also have to say a big hello to all our new readers…

Some don’t even own a dog let alone a ‘doodle…

But they seem to enjoy all the adventures Millie and me have…

So hi and don’t be a “lurker” leave a comment maybe – we don’t bite honest lol…

(only when riled lol)

OK onto what’s been happening…

As promised we took Millie away for a week or R and R…

She really did need it after 9 puppies and that terrible case of mastitis…

We chose Norfolk as it is most definitely the most dog friendly county out there…

Lots of amazing wide deserted sandy beaches and almost 100% dog friendly pubs – bliss…

We were delighted to meet up with Murphy and his wonderful family and had a fab day…

We met at Brancaster Beach – just wow what a dream place – and then had a lovely lunch in an olde worlde pub…

Murphy is an absolute star and a total credit to his family…

He was a little nervous around a very excitable Millie at first – but soon sorted her out…

MURPHY IS GROWING INTO A LOVELY BIG GOLDENDOODLE

MURPHY AND MILLIE AT THE PUB

MURPHY SUDDENLY REALIZED THAT WAS HIS “GRANDDAD” LOL

MURPHY THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY CUTE AND CLEVER!!!

Murphy was absolutely amazing…

Completely bombproof and ran his little heart out…

Like all pups with “new folks” he was pleased to see us – but a curious thing happened…

After about half an hour or so of play and fussing us – he suddenly stopped in his tracks and stared at Neil…

There was a classic double take and he launched himself at his “granddad” lol…

We’re meeting up with him – and a few more of the little “doods” later this month – more on that at the end of this post…

Millie absolutely loved her week away – we had a fab cosy cottage and walked ourselves silly…

The weather was absolutely perfect for a quiet week away…

The days were fresh windy and sunny and the evenings dark and cold…

After a day exploring we’d return home – log burner on and relax in the leather layZboys lol…

We also met up with old friends Gary and Sue and their Boxer dog Rosa…

After Rosa asserted herself the two dogs got on really well and we had a fabulous day on the beach…

99% of the families who had Millie’s pups have kept in touch which is great…

As the weeks go on I shall keep you all updated…

COOKIE GROWING INTO A TRULY BEAUTIFUL GOLDENDOODLE


Big news for us is our little Molly won a cute pet competition – wow!!!

She always was the “little princess” of the pack – remember her as aloof little Red..?

MOLLY THE BABE AND HER WINNING ROSETTE


A quick update on all of Millies pups – (more details next time honest)…

Digby was a little tricky over his first few weeks – trying to assert himself somewhat – but I’m pleased he’s settling well…

Lulu continues to be a crazy little madam – but in a truly lovely way lol…

Mazola has settled into her new life so very well and adores the children…

Murphy as you have seen is an absolute star…

Max is the life and soul of the family and a very big boy…

Cookie is blooming into the most beautiful ‘doodle you’ve ever seen…

Lilly is the cutest naughtiest little thing you ever did see…

Tilly is absolutely doted on by her family and is absolutely gorgeous…

Molly the “Essex Girl” is on her way to becoming the next top dog model lol…

OK that’ll do for this update – and yes I shall be doing this more often…

So the Midlands Doodle Meet is arranged for November 20th at Coombe Abby…

We’re so excited to see that a lot of Millie’s pups are coming!!!

If you need more details leave a comment here – check out Doodle Mania…

Lulu was there last time and had a whale of a time lol…

It’ll be fantastic to meet you all and the doods have an amazing time running themselves ragged lol…

GOLDENDOODLE PHOTOS OF THE WEEK

LILLY THE CUTEST NAUGHTIEST DOODLE OF ALL LOL CHECKOUT HER NEW BLOG!!!

MILLIE ON THE LAPTOP LOL

Remember you can upload use and keep all your goldendoodle photos HERE…

Right that’s me off to work – until the next time…

Lots of love Kate and Millie XxX

MAX AND KATE

MAX (aka “Dave the Doodle”) leaves us tomorrow…

To say I’m sad is an understatement…

Not only is he the last of Millie the Goldendoodle’s litter of pups to leave us…

He’s also my boy – the little ‘dood that has won over my heart…

Of course I loved them all – but Max – Blue Collar – was always my little lad…

MAX HAS BECOME A REAL CUDDLY PUPPY


As soon as he hears my car pull up he rushes to the door…

It’s been wonderful to be greeted by the “doodle dance…”

Max prances and pirouettes and his tail goes a thousands miles an hour…

Then later in the evening he gives me the hound dog eyes – who could resist !!!

I scoop him up in my arms and we “snuggle” for an age…

Unless of course Millie wants to play with him – which is often ha ha…

MILLIE AND MAX WRESTLING AS USUAL

TIRED AFTER A LONG PLAY

Millie absolutely adores him and has really been fantastic with him…

She was a little down after Mazsola and Lulu left…

But with Max around she’s had plenty to keep her mind off things…

I have an awful feeling she’ll take his leaving very badly…

We shall of course be there for her what ever happens…

Though it does beg the question “should we get another doodle…”

All I can say to that is – Neil (Millie’s Dad) now has Sky Sports (bribe..? nah lol)…

And I have my eye on a gorgeous 4-month-old Goldendoodle puppy that needs a new home…

When we talked about it Neil shrugged and said “No worries…”

I’m really thinking on it lol…

Back to Max and he’s become a real little character…

So much so he got into a bit of a mess in the garden the other day…

The mud and 8 weeks living with piddly pooping puppies meant he was a little “smelly…”

BATH TIME!!!







To be honest there was little or no fuss…

After Millie’s first bath I was expecting the worst !!!

Millie of course helped and became extremely excited !!!

Apart from the odd whimper Max took it all in his stride – good lad !!!

Afterwards and once he’d been towel dried Neil said “his coat makes him look like a guinea pig…”

I had to laugh – his hair had dried “against the grain” and he did indeed look like a little guinea pig lol…

GUINEA PIG OR GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY !!!


We’re really going to miss this little chap…

He just loves company and is never too far away…

He was a little lost without his brothers and sisters…

And really does crave loves and cuddles…

His new mum text me last night to say they arrived back in the UK 8am today…

They are so excited and are simply bursting to get here to collect him…

I’m thrilled for them – but very sad as I shall miss him terribly…

I was going to add some pics of the rest of the litter…

But a sudden change in plans at work means I have a two hour drive to a meeting…

So I have to dash and promise to get more puppy news and photos up soon…

Until then loads of love and keep in touch – Kate ~ Millie and Max aka Dave the ‘Doodle XxX

12kg HIlls only £29.99 & FREE DELIVERY

SUBSCRIBE TO MILLIE’S GOLDENDOODLE YOU TUBE CHANNEL FOR MORE VIDEOS

And whilst I write this there’s only one – our little Max (or Dave as he’s known in these parts lol)…

Well I say “little” – he has a squawk as big as his feet !!!

It was his first night alone without the litter last night…

He howled for 2 hours – he was in such a state I had to come down to him…

He eventually fell asleep – but he really is missing his brothers and sisters…

Millie totally ignored the noise lol – well she is still shattered from the mini Midlands ‘doodle meet…



MILLIE TAKES A MUD BATH LOL


As you can see she had an absolute ball and loved seeing her best mates Biddy – and of course Paddy and Lynn…

OK onto the last of the little ‘doods…

They had a whale of a time their last week with us…

I think they enjoyed the more personal touch and loved the “sit and beg” game…

…aren’t they just clever little ‘doodles !!!



MILLIE JOINS IN THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY TRAINING CLASS

The last day with the three puppies didn’t start too well lol…

We were woken around 4am to a noise of real distress from all three…

Convinced someone had broken in and was trying to steal them we raced down the stairs…

Some how and no idea on God’s earth how – a black kitten had got into their room…

They had obviously woken and spotted it…

She was a beauty and sat bold as brass staring at them…

The three amigos were in a dreadful state lol…

It took us a long long time to calm them down…

Big tough guys I think not lol…

Our little Lulu (White) was the first to leave us yesterday…



LULU CUDDLES HER NEW BIG SISTER (we love the collar and tag!!!)

She has been a complete star this past few weeks…

Always helping with the cleaning up (lol)…

And always first to come for a cuddle or lick and fuss over any pups who were sad or distressed…

I just know her new family absolutely adore her and she’s going to have a fantastic life…

Word reaches us that she already adores their Labrador Stanley and he her – that is really sweet…

We were both a little sad to see her go – but Millie’s Dad in particular was very quiet…

Maz and Lulu have both been his little “angels” (sometimes the “sisters of sin” lol) since they were born…



MAZSOLA OFF TO PASTURES NEW – AND SOON TO BE BI LINGUAL !!!

Mazsola’s family arrived late afternoon and mum and dad were very excited…

Little Lilac seemed delighted to meet them again and even allowed a lot of tummy tickles from her new dad…

Now THAT is a rare honour…

They were always hoping for a mischievous puppy…

And with little Maz they have got that in bucketfuls ha ha…

If Millie’s Dad was quiet when Lulu left – I swear I saw a tear in his eye when his little Mazola left…

I have to admit this past week the two girls have gotten to me too…

Both absolute stunners and everything you would want in a dog…

Smart – pretty – loving – naughty – feisty – they have it in bag fulls…

OK that leaves us with our old mate Max (Blue/Dave)…




DAVE THE ‘DOODLE – HE LIKES BUCKETS AND DRAINS LOL

He kind of eyed us all suspiciously when we opened the puppy gate giving him the run of the downstairs…

He spent a long time sniffing around and playing with his mum…

But it is at my feet he wants to be – and still whimpers when I leave the room…

He’s the strong sensitive type I reckon lol…

As I mentioned earlier we put him back in the puppy room at bedtime…

But he was having none of it…

We have some work to do there I feel lol…

Max leaves us on Friday (his family are on honeymoon in the US)…

I shall be extremely sorry to see him go – we have a real natural bond going on…

Until then whilst I’m at work Millie’s Dad will have the hound dog howls ha ha…



GORGEOUS GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY MAX

WHERE ARE THEY NOW..?


We have received lots of calls emails texts and photos of the little ‘doodle pups…

I can’t tell you how happy it makes us to see they’re all settled in and happy…

I guess every time I pop a blog post up I’ll slap a few photos/movies on too…

Please keep them all coming we love to see and hear all about our brood lol…

And just a quick note for those using GOLDENDOODLES PHOTOS…

Please check the little message at the end of this post lol…

OK here’s an amazing video showing Cookie’s (Purple) first few days at her new home…

It brought a tear to my eye I have to say – and thank you so much for sending it us !!!








It’s obviously very tiring playing with Cookie the Goldendoodle puppy – don’t they look absolutely adorable !!!



LILLY IN HER I MUST NOT CHASE BOYS T-SHIRT LOL!!!


Lilly is absolutely loving her life in Wales…

And with that very apt t-shirt looks like she’s headed for the dog cat walk lol…










MURPHY THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY HAS BECOME MUM’S LITTLE HELPER LOL


Please keep them coming and I’ll pop more up next post…

OK Millie’s Dad says those of you using GOLDENDOODLES PHOTOS might want to download something…

Photos off digital cameras are HUGE !!!

So before uploading them to the site – firstly download – EASY THUMBNAILS – it’s completely free…

Under the settings go for 600 wide 800 high…

Under New Name add prefix tn_…

Then choose the photo from the window and click make (if you are doing lots click make all)…

You’ll now get resized photos with the prefix tn_ (thumbnail)…

So big JPG.1 would now be tn_JPG.1 – it’s smaller and fits nicely into forums !!!

OK enough techno speak I’m off for a girly morning shopping and coffee with Millie lol…

It was always our Saturday ritual and she loves the butcher’s shop !!!

So until the next time much love KATE MILLIE AND MAX XxX

My deepest apologies to her and her new family…

Today has been a little hectic at home and on the blog…

We moved to a new host (excellent) but as always with these techno things…

There were hitches all the way – at one point I lost all the photos !!!

So our little Cookie is happy as could be in lovely Surrey…

I don’t think she’s tried the swimming pool just yet !!!

And I hope she hasn’t dug up the carefully filled in fox holes yet lol…

She’s settled in extremely well and adores her family…

It seems she’s doing very well being left alone for short periods…

Mum and the kids hide behind a door listening to see if she’s distressed…

She isn’t lol and on their return she absolutely jumps for joy…

Mom’s feet seem to be the favourite spot for little Cookie to snooze !!!

I’m so pleased all our pups have such amazing homes and families…

So a very big thank you to you all…

And sorry once again Jane for missing darling Cookie in the first post – I hope I’m forgiven

Life is very very different with just three…

Quieter far less poop and piddle and dare I say a little boring lol…

That’s not to say the last three puppies are boring – far from it lol…

The three in question – Lulu – Max (aka “Dave”) and of course Mazola…

Are enough for anyone to handle – real characters lol – you gotta feel sorry for our Max…

Outnumbered by two of the strongest willed little girl pups you’d ever meet lol…



MAX CAN’T GET THE PIGS EAR OFF THE GIRLS !!!

Their routines haven’t changed much but oh boy are they growing fast !!!

Far more independent far more inquisitive and totally ready for one on one training…

All went to the vet for health checks and their first injections…

Most didn’t like the crate in the car at all !!!

The vet was very pleased with their health and all were well behaved…

Except of course little Mazsola – she really did growl ha ha…

I’m pleased to say none showed any ill after effects…

I know they’re ours but they truly are amazing little dogs…

So very well mannered little pups – always clean to newspaper and extremely gentle with kids…



16 MONTH OLD OSCAR HELPS FEED MAZSOLA THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY

So to this weekend and what a mixture of happiness sadness relief (lol) and pleasure…

To see everyone so happy and extremely excited to collect their puppies was fantastic…

It all began on Friday with out little Lilly (aka Yellow) leaving for Wales…



LILLY WAS SO VERY PLEASED TO SEE HER NEW MUM AGAIN

As soon as her mum arrived in the garden and as if by magic Lilly jumped all over her…

Talk about being pleased – she was truly ecstatic lol…

Lots of licks wriggles and of course tail wagging !!!

The news from Wales is Lilly has settled in amazingly well and adores pigs ears !!!



DIGBY THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY SURPRISINGLY SWEET THAT DAY (LOL)


Digby was up next and his mum and dad had hardly been able to contain themselves all week…

Being the Alpha Male Digby surprised us all by being a proper little puppy…

He wriggled licked and cuddled like his life depended on it lol…

It truly was a pleasure to see him so pleased with his new family…

And the word is Digby is asserting himself a little but otherwise behaving very well…

He’s got intense training and the “snip” in his future plans lol…

Having only 7 overnight didn’t make much of a difference…

Though of course we totally missed Lilly’s antics and Digby’s smouldering presence…

Millie spent a few minutes whimpering and looking in particular for Lilly (they played a lot together)…

But she was fine really and received extra fuss and love that night…

MUM KEEPING A FIRM HOLD ON MURPHY’S HUMPING HIPS HA HA!

Saturday dawned and rain was in the air – the magnificent 7 doodle pups got very wet and muddy…

Murphy was next to go and the whole family arrived early…

They really had been a state of excitement for weeks…

We’re pretty sure they were camped in the car around the corner this last few days…

Had they have had to wait another day I reckon they’d have burst lol…

Murphy was amazing and played with the kids and loved his new mum and dad…

He’s a gorgeous solid little dog who is going to be loved so very much…

News reaches me that “Shabba Mr Lover Lover Man” is up to his old tricks…

He really will hump anything with or without a pulse that boy…

He’s a real ‘Doodle Stud Muffin – sounds like a good life…

“Bring me that cute poodle washed – I’ll be half an hour…”



MOLLY SNUGGLES UP TO HER WONDERFUL NEW MUM AND DAD (scratches on arm are courtesy of Dave lol)


Our special little Princess Molly was next to leave the nest…

And a quick wash was in order as she’d said goodbye to her special hole in the garden…

Yeah it had been raining and white Molly was a dirty brown Molly lol…

But mum and dad didn’t care they just wanted to take her home…

Friends (even tough guys) and family were eagerly waiting to meet her (she’d like that lol)…

However they were soon distracted by the remaining pups and stayed awhile to play !!!

The news reaches us that our little princess has settled in superbly and is loving her new life !!!

Down to four and we decided to bring out a special treat…

Four little pigs ears for them to chew on…

Holy crap – they absolutely adored them and much fun was had by all lol…



CUTE LITTLE PUP TILLY AND HER LOVELY NEW MUM

Our little Tilly was the last of the weekend puppies to fly the coop…

She has been an absolute joy to watch grow up and develop…

By far the smallest but by far the biggest heart – she was a little tired on Sunday…

She really had packed a lot of fun and fuss into the previous three days lol…

Her new mum and dad had brought almost every conceivable piece of puppy paraphernalia !!!

Tilly was just delighted to be going home to such a lovely family…

She has a great life in front of her with a really big extended family…

That evening as we let Mazsola Max and Lulu out to play it really hit us hard…

All our little Goldendoodle pups grown up and leaving home…

Millie was quiet and more than a little sad…

But “Mad Maz” soon got her out of her quiet mood by jumping all over her until Millie had to play !!!

Millie has taken the loss of her pups extremely well…

On Monday she went for a doggie spa day and had a lovely time at HANDSOME HOUNDS…

Millie has bubble bath pedicure cut and blow dry !!!

We think she looks absolutely stunning and truly deserved the treat…



MILLIE THE GOLDENDOODLE BACK FROM THE GROOMERS

We’re off for a mad Midlands Doodle Meet tomorrow night…

Millie will get to see her bestest mate in the whole world Biddy (and Lynn lol)…

If she knew she’d been unable to contain herself lol…

Millie truly deserves the best of times – she’s been through a hell of a lot…

We can’t wait to take her for a much needed break in September…

AND with the prospect of meeting up with Murphy and his family – should be brilliant !!!

I know the families of the last three Goldendoodle puppies are equally excited as everyone else has been…

Mazsola and Lulu leave us this Friday with Max (“Dave”) staying an extra week…



MAX THE GOLDENDOODLE I LOVE HIM TO PIECES !!!

He’s become my very special little boy – he even howls like a wolf when I leave him…

Funny but Millie’s Dad is none to impressed lol…

I know I’m going to be upset when he leaves – not just because I adore him…

But more because he’ll be the last…

We had considered Millie having another litter in a couple of years time…

But her proneness to mastitis and the fact we could’ve lost her says a definite NO !!!

We shall have her spayed in the very near future and maybe – just maybe get another ‘doodle down the line..?

That’s something we shall be considering as we have decided when the time is right to hit the country !!!

OK I’m blabbering on now to avoid thinking to hard about missing the pups lol…

Phew what a journey – what an experience – what an incredible time this has been…

I sometimes sit back and think bloody hell did we really do all that…

I’m so proud to see Millie’s puppies doing her proud…

By all accounts they really are little ladies and gentlemen…

What more could anyone want..?

OK the blog has been going long before the puppies came along so don’t be strangers !!!

There will be plenty more tales from Millie and her babies…

And we still have three here lol…

Thanks for the flowers plants and wine – very very much appreciated !!!

And please do keep all those emails texts and calls coming – I’m a puppy news addicit ha ha…

Lots of love ~ KATE ~ MILLIE ~ MAZSOLA ~ LULU AND MAX (aka Dave lol)

5 AM TODAY THE PUPS WANNA PLAY !!!

5 MINUTES EARLIER SLEEPY LITTLE PUPPIES READY FOR THE DAY

(sorry for the delay in posting – madness here lol)

IT REALLY is the last full day with the whole litter of Goldendoodle puppies…

I said yesterday the time has flown by – it really truly has…

I’ve been awake since 3am listening out for them kind of hoping they’d wake early lol…

But no – they’re sleeping soundly and have been since 8 pm last night – good kids ha ha…

OK I shall be writing this on and off this morning – and hopefully adding some nice photos too…

So as promised – and the girls first – I present Millie’s Goldendoodle Puppies…

TILLY – aka Pink – Pinky – Tiz




We call her the Doodle Dynamo lol…

She’s the smallest but one of the toughest…

She grabs life and runs with it at high speed…

Everything is exciting and a challenge…

She was the first to take to solid food…

As cute as she’s nutty Tilly is first one folks pick up and fuss…

She’s always the first to trot over to say hello…

She’s fearless and never backs down in a squabble…

She absolute loves Lilly – those two are inseparable…

And together they kick some ass lol…

The “Scouse Mouse” might be tiny…

But she has bags of heart and spirit…

Bloody gorgeous…

If Tilly Could Speak: “It’s amaaaaazing!!!”

Voted The Puppy Most Likely To: Break a bone by jumping from great heights !!! Hold her tight !!!

LILLY – aka Yellow or see below !!!



Lilo Lil’ as she’s been affectionately named…

Those old enough to remember the TV show Bread will get it lol…

“She is a TART!” was the cry ha ha…

And our little Lilly just loves cuddles kisses and love…

She absolutely seems to spend 50% of her time on her back !!!

Always helping to clean the boys bits – she’s also a little madam…

If there’s trouble Lilly will be in the midst of things…alongside her best mate Tilly – what a pair !!!

This last couple of days she’s begun to assert herself somewhat…

The bigger pups are quite startled by her growls and yaps lol…

Millie has a tough time with her as she never keeps still !!!

She will race outside whilst being cleaned with Millie hot on her heels…

Lilly will then squeeze under something and yap at her mum…

It drives Millie mental ha ha…

I absolutely adore her coat – making her look like a sleek marmalade tabby cat…

A petite stunner she’s going to be a very very pretty dog…

If Lilly Could Speak: “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours !!!”

Voted The Puppy Most Likely To: Be the first to ahem conceive ha ha…

Lulu – aka White – Whitey – GetOff and LeaveIt !!!



Began life as a quiet little pup who’s eyes used to bore into you…

Almost as if everything was your fault lol…

With her oversized white collar we called her the Little Vicar…

These days we seem to call her “Hey StoppIit” !!!

She really is a proper little puppy – fluffy pretty and plump…

Don’t be fooled she’s a feisty little soul…

The shouts coming from the puppy room are hilarious…

It usually means Lulu has…

…ran off with the newspaper – sat in the water bowl – grabbed the kitchen roll OR…

Attacked the mop !!!

You cannot clean in her presence she just wants to help !!!

I’ve lost count of the amount of times we’ve chased her down the garden to get a cloth back…

Even the hoover holds no fear – most pups scatter she rushes it !!!

Despite that streak of mischief she’s a very loving puppy…

Always there or there abouts when it’s cuddle time…

She’s going to make a very solid beautiful Goldendoodle – a bombproof beauty…

If Lulu Could Speak: “Chase me – go on catch me !!!”

Voted The Puppy Most Likely To: Have the vets scratching their heads as to how she could eat a whole hoover !!!

Molly – aka Red – Princess and Molly Malone




Within days she stood out as a true beauty…

As she grew older she was also the most aloof…

Always slightly away from the litter she was the obvious litter leader…

It was a real privilege when she came for some fuss…

As she’s developed her initial standoffish behaviour has gone…

She’s a true fusspot and absolutely adores being fussed and cuddled…

She’s up there as one of the most affectionate of the litter…

However she certainly can and does (often) assert herself…

Everyone who meets her say how beautiful she is and boy doesn’t she know it…

We call her the Princess – and she seems to get that ha ha…

However there’s a real tomboy streak to her…

This little girl just loves to dig – protect your lawns (and putting greens lol) !!!

First into the mud – first into the fights and the first to truly bark…

And her latest trick is to clack her teeth together as a warning to the other pups…

It totally freaks them out !!!

I really can’t wait to see her grow up – she’s going to be breathtaking…

If Molly Could Speak: “Do you know who I am..?”

Voted Puppy Most Likely To: Wear a diamond collar or mate with a Royal Corgi lol…

Cookie – Purple – Purps – Cooks and Baby Girl



Nearly an identical twin sister of Molly…

Almost pure white and extremely attractive with a silky shiny coat…

She’s a little heartbreaker…

Cookie is the baby girl of the bunch…

The first to cry for her mommy and the first to cry when things are not to her liking…

HOWEVER…

As the weeks has passed her confidence has grown…

She is now an absolute little star and we adore her…

The first to bed and the last one awake she is deceptively big and strong…

On your lap she gives you the doleful big eyes nibbles gently and licks nicely…

Before closing her jaws in a vice like grip and grinding down HARD !!!

Many of the pups have tasted Cookie’s teeth lol…

She takes no nonsense from anyone but absolutely loves to be fussed…

She was tough to train to newspaper until we realised she prefers broadsheets !!!

She’s a little charmer who is the perfect puppy in the window dog…

The kind of puppy artists draw in children’s books…

She’s gorgeous cheeky a tad sensitive at times but absolutely full of love and fun…

A real Goldendoodle beauty in the making…

If Cookie Could Speak: “Listen I am not going to piddle on the Sun – bring me the Times – and ironed my good man”…lol

Voted Puppy Most Likely To: Win a prettiest puppy contest or eat a whole hand !!!

Mazsola – aka Lilac – Liley – Lilac Whine and Mad Maz




Regular readers will know Lilac intimately ha ha…

Oh boy did she cause mayhem in the whelping box !!!

And nope things haven’t changed lol…

Her name is Hungarian for Little Raisin – read that as little raising hell !!!

OK I’m teasing – but she’s by far the feistiest of the girls…

100% no nonsense I’m in charge or else tomboy with mischief as her middle name !!!

The epitomy of an F1B Goldendoodle she is going to have an amazing coat…

At the moment she may look like she has a permanent frown lol…

Far from it – in full flight and when the camera’s off her lol – she’s absolutely gorgeous and very very pretty…

She totally terrorizes Millie who absolutely adores her…

Those two always seem to be in the bed play fighting (with Maz winning lol)…

Otherwise she’s Speedy Gonzales tearing around the garden leaping on others backs !!!

It’s either 1000mph or complete stop with “Maz”…

But – and get this – she’s a real cuddly little puppy when the mood takes her…

I know a certain someone who has a real soft spot for her and she for him

She’s one I can barely wait to see all grown up – a real A Typical Goldendoodle…

If Mazsola Could Speak: “I’m a lover AND a fighter…but mostly a fighter…”

Voted Puppy Most Likely To: Shave her head and wear Doc Martins and boiler suit lol… (only teasing)

Murphy – aka Aqua – Flash and Smurf




About as cool and laid back as you can get apart from Max lol…

Nicknamed Flash – as in that gorgeous white streak on his head…

Certainly not for any speed he may show lol…

Sure he trots – rarely runs unless the goats milk is being poured…

Boy can that little lad run then !!!

He really is an absolutely gorgeous little dog…

Full of fluffy loves kisses and cuddles…

With more than an ounce of mischief and fun…

To my knowledge he’s never snapped or snarled – but he sure can yap !!!

He’ll grumble and let you know if you’re ignoring him…

Happy to play on his own with a ball – he’s shown amazing ball skills lol…

Saying that he was also the first one to “hump…”

At three weeks old one wonders if that’s a record ha ha…

To date he has humped pretty much everything including a plastic plant pot lol…

(well it was pink so I guess that’s OK ha ha)…

He is a gentle little soul and like nothing better than having his ears rubbed as he falls asleep…

He’s one that will be sorely missed – a real little treasure who will make his new family very happy…

If Murphy Could Speak: “Just call me Mr Lover Man and come over here sweet cheeks…”

Voted Puppy Most Likely To: Embarrass you by humping your Granny’s leg lol…

Max – Blue aka Bluey and Dave



For some reason Millie’s Dad calls him Dave and it has stuck lol…

He is the real surfer beach boy of the litter…

Laid back – lush and horizontal in the land of nod for 75% of the time lol…

There’s slow – lethargy and then there’s laid back love bunny Max…

If there’s any trouble he will seek you out for support…

Doesn’t like getting involved unless he really has to does our Max…

He is simply gorgeous and 100% totally huggable…

So gentle so kind and so full of love he’s on my lap the most…

He’s also the only one that really cries when we leave the room – aaah bless…

Saying that he can have his moments and yesterday he really kicked off…

Most of the rougher pups scattered as Max roared…

He’s going to be a true gentle giant of a dog…

I think he actually quite liked that as it meant he could sleep undisturbed ha ha…

He can and does sleep absolutely anywhere…

Not even the rattle of the milk bowl can rouse him lol…

I shall miss this little lad deeply – but hey I have him for two more weeks woohoo !!!

If Max Could Speak: “Like wow peace out man it’s just all so heavy – I need a hug…”

Voted Puppy Most lIkely To: Treat your kingsized bed as his own and rarely let you in !!!

Digby – Orange aka Orange-U-Tang and Diggers



Last but certainly not least is our old mate Digby…

Hey I apologize now for the bad press I gave the boy lol…

Readers will know all to well he was one noisy little puppy in his “younger days” lol…

He made a racket sounding like a constipated orang-outang with a red hot chilli up his bum !!!

Seriously high on the decibel level and annoying on the ears ha ha…

The fantastic news – for us and his new family is – he hasn’t done that for weeks !!!

In fact he was up until a couple of days ago the coolest little dood of the litter…

Rarely in trouble – rarely squabbling – rarely mixing…

He just did his doodle thing – ate – busy busy and sleep…

It was a rare honour for Diggers to wander over to say hello even more for him to stay on your lap lol…

He’d like to grab a hide chew and crash out at his fave spot in the garden and chill…

On Monday however he decided that Millie’s dad was his mate and no one else was allowed a look in…

This of course led to much kerfuffle in the doodle litter but none of them had faced an angry emotional Digby before…

Holy crap did he put the litter firmly in its place !!!

Over the last three days he has gone from the strong silent type to undisputed pack leader – well Mazsola keeps trying lol…

He’s going to be a very strong dog and will need that energy channelling – I hate to say it but maybe neutered too…

He’s not nasty at all – but he is showing the signs of being a future pack leader and is ultra smart if you catch my drift

He is a stunning boy who is going to be a complete bear of a Goldendoodle – can’t wait to see him grow…

If Digby Could Speak: “I’m the Godfather capiche..?”

Voted Puppy Most Likely To: Win the smartest dog competition he already tries to turn on the outdoor tap lol…

And there you have them all nine of the Goldendoodle puppies…

I’ve been as honest as I can be – and in all honesty there’s really nothing to hide…

They are all absolutely stunning bomb proof family ready little darlings…

They are eager to learn in desperate need on one to one training…

And to be given as much love as you can all muster…

There will be times when you want to tear your hair out…

And times when your heart will fill with absolute utter joy and love…

Mostly the latter

Goldendoodles are special dogs – funny crazy a little mad but so full of love it’s untrue…

They will fit in with whatever lifestyle you have…

Just remember exercise – discipline and affection…

It looked at times as if we were hard with Millie as a puppy…

But now when people say “what a well behaved dog” we swell with pride…

There’s no magic in bringing up a well grounded well mannered happy puppy…

It’s simply firm fair and consistent…

Your home your rules and they have to fit in with that – not you with them…

Remember Millie’s Dad’s simple adage – “they are dogs…”

I’ll leave it there for today…

Tomorrow’s (Friday) plans have changed a little…

I’m taking them all for their vet check and first injection in the morning…

Then at noon Lilly leaves us and then at 1pm Digby says farewell…

I shall let you know how it all goes tomorrow and probably add a few sites you might like to look at for puppy tips…

But as I shall say in the letters with the pups – we’re no experts but if you need us just call…

Right I’m off to spend more time with the litter – it is after all their last full day together…

As always much love and thanks for all your emails messages text and calls….

Kate ~ Millie ~ Tilly,Lulu,Lilly,Molly,Cookie,Mazsola,Murphy,Max and Digby the Doodles XxX

THE DOODLE PUPS BEING HOUSE TRAINED – RESPONDING TO THE CRY “BUSY BUSY ~ GET BUSY !!! ”

(Millie eventually shows the reluctant ones how to piddle lol)

IN LESS than 72 hours the first of our Goldendoodle puppies will leave us…

Lilly aka Little Yellow is off to start her new life in Wales with the lovely Katie and family…

As the pup with the most cuddles to offer she will – like all will be – sorely missed…

I cannot believe how quickly the time has passed – though there were moments there when time stood still lol…

By Sunday afternoon we shall be left with 3 little ‘doodles – one week later just one – our Max aka Blue…



THEY’VE BROKEN THROUGH THE BARRICADES ~ ALL HOPE IS LOST FIGHT TO THE DEATH MEN (Max)

To say the little ‘doodles are ready is an understatement…

They have grown and developed so much this past two weeks it’s unbelievable…

They are eager to learn and be taught – but as a pack it is difficult to do a complete job with them…

Millie has now completely stepped up to the plate and is playing a key role in their lives…

Her stitches are out – the vet is extremely pleased with her and she’s back to her old self !!!

Her early nervousness at being back with her litter has gone…

She now takes charge of them individually and as a litter…

If one refuses to lie still whilst being cleaned she charges after then…

Wrestles with them until they roll on their backs in submission…

Any attempts at suckling are met with a growl and if that fails a swipe from her paw lol…

She can now lie down and enjoy cuddles with them without the chaos that used to ensue…

It’s just beautiful to witness…

Although her and Mazsola seem to play fight all day long – Maz is a feisty little puppy !!!



MILLIE PLAYING WITH HER BABY GOLDENDOODLES

We’ve all taken them just about as far as we can as a litter…

Now they need their new mums and dads and families to set the rules and show them right from wrong…

There is of course lots of fun and cuddles with us still – but also an element of discipline…

Millie’s Dad seems to spend all day saying “No…Get Down…Leave It…Put It Down…OFF…” etc etc…

He seems to have perfected the angry growl which calms the pack down…

And when things are really “kicking off” he’s been known to bark very convincingly…

The little pups as one settle – their ears flat and their eyes down…

He then chuckles and calls them “Granddad’s Little Monsters…”

Training one little puppy is hard but NINE !!!

They are not ill mannered or naughty in any way shape or form…

Just very boisterous – eager to experience new things and ahem challenge boundaries lol…




THE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY ESCAPE COMMITTEE ~ I’LL DIG A TUNNEL YOU BULLDOZE A WAY THROUGH !!!

All perfectly normal all part of a growing puppy – it just needs channelling the proper way…

Greeting visitors for instance can be mayhem – but what can you do..?

People enter the garden gasp – coo and shriek “OOOOOoo PUPPPPPPPIES !!!”

(we do try to say please go into the garden quietly lol)

They respond as a pack and mob the person’s feet nibbling shoes and jumping up scratching exposed legs !!!

Not naughty – just excited – keen – interested – they just need showing the correct way to greet new people…

Chewing is really starting to kick in now and we have had to resort to anti chew spray…

Something we only used once with Millie to great effect lol…

Most of the litter sniffed the spot and backed off…

Mazsola however snarled and barked and waved her paws at the area – tough kid or what !!!

We were either very lucky with Millie or that one taste of the spray worked wonders !!!

These little darlings chew anything and I mean anything they can get their mouths on lol…

No amount of NO’s or scruffs or distractions can stop them moving on to the next item…

The new families will be best advised to keep a close eye on this typical puppy behaviour !!!

Favourite items to chew – houses – walls – plants – wood – lawns – concrete – cardboard – each other – us !!!

Saying that – they will chew anything lying around – except of course puppy chew toys !!!



IN A RARE MOMENT TILLY ACTUALLY CHEWS A PUPPY CHEW TOY !!!

Crocs are good – so too are really really strong hide chews…

We have got through quite a few of those – particularly the huge knotted bones !!!

So our babies are truly ready to fly the nest – to be honest circumstance meant they were ready two weeks ago lol…

We’re sad and happy too – happy they will now get the individual love and attention they deserve…

Sad as we shall miss them all deeply…

I know they’re Millie’s pups and special to us – but they truly are amazing little dogs…

They have put up with a hell of a lot in their short lives…

We have packed in as much love and fun as anyone could muster…

Millie’s Dad asked me last night if ” the kids have had a good early puppy-hood…”

I watched them charging around the garden into everything and having a whale of a time…

And said quite simply “Yes…”



MURPHY LAUNCHES HIMSELF INTO ANOTHER ROUND OF PUPPY PLAY FIGHTS


Well I say charging around the garden – that depends on the weather…

Tuesday morning saw a real downpour…

5am usually means the pups want to burst out into the garden…

However the sights smells sounds and sensations of rain put them off !!!



However with a little gentle coaxing they eventually went outside for “busy busy”…

And on their return we had a litter of very wet little pups !!!

OK I promise I shall have the thumbnail word sketch of each puppy up by tomorrow…

There’s no truth to the rumour it isn’t up yet in case the new families back out !!!

Simply time really – we get maybe an hour in between feeds/play and stuff…

And there’s a lot to do as I’m sure you all understand…

Enjoy the new photos and videos of the Goldendoodle puppies – and gasp at how big they’ve grown…

Until then – much love as always and thanks for all your calls texts and emails…

I can’t tell you how much it means to us all !!!

Lots of love ~ KATE ~ MILLIE and the GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY PACK !!!
