COOL VIDEO EFFECTS HA HA
MY apologies if you were expecting individual close ups of the pups today…
Time I’m afraid has been against me – I shall get onto it later today I promise…
And the new batch of coloured collars has arrived – so they’ll look all smart for their close ups !!!
The fantastic news is a few of the puppies have their eyes partly open !!!
It’s usually between 8 to 12 days – so they are well on course…
They are all gaining weight at an amazing rate…
SLEEPY DOODLE PUPPIES IN THE SUNSHINE
To give Millie a bit of a break last night – and after cleaning her nipples which are much better…
We brought her beloved bed into the lounge…
She was over the moon and rolled over in it like a frisky puppy…
We then brought two pups at a time to her…
Without the chaos of the nest she was able to give each special attention…
They all had a fantastic feed and very thorough top and tail…
Their squawks and squeaks were a delight as Millie washed them all over…
OK I have to dash and I promise I shall have the close ups tomorrow…
Don’t forget to keep in touch and I’ll leave you with the latest photos…
Lots of Love Kate Millie and the baby Doods…

ONE WEEK OLD AND GROWING FAST – MILLIE’S LITTLER OF GOLDENDOODLE PUPS
I CAN hardly believe it’s been a whole week since Millie gave birth…
My how time flies when your house is full of baby doodles !!!
All have almost doubled their body weight with a couple a little more than that…
I am thrilled with their progress and Millie is enjoying a little more time away from the nest…
She’s positioning herself in an alcove in the lounge – she can see them and responds immediately if needed…
MILLIE CATCHING UP ON HER SLEEP – THE YELLOW YOU SEE IS “NIPPLE CREAM” LOL
Bless her she’s always been a sleepy dog…
But for the first 5 days I think she managed the odd cat nap – with one undisturbed 3/4 of an hour !!!
She’s next to me now snoring the sleep only us new moms know ha ha…
Come to that so are the puppies – 10% of the time feeding 90% sleeping…
SLEEPY CUTE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPIES
I had to work all day yesterday and my partner took over the care…
Oh boy did I miss the little pups and of course Millie…
It’s truly amazing how quickly you bond with the litter…
They are adorable and as I said yesterday their personalities are beginning to shine through…
It seems that yesterday they all found their voices – and at times the noise was deafening lol…
It was also very chilly here and on my return the house was as warm as toast…
Not only that but the puppies were snuggled up to a child safe hot water bottle wrapped in a blanket…
The hot water bottle cover is covered in Millie’s smell and hair…
I’m pretty sure that gives the little doods much comfort…
On my return Millie woke them up and the noise was amazing – it can only get louder as they grow ha ha…
However for the little yellow pup (as in collar lol) – it was far to snug to move…
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzz SNUG AND WARM ON A HOT WATER BOTTLE
OK I have to shoot off to work…
I have a phone full of photos and movies for the staff to see…
They are all doing amazingly well – and Millie’s sore nipples are much better…
Again thanks for all your messages I truly love to hear from you…
Take care and lots of love KATE – MILLIE and the LITTLE DOODS…

THE PROUD MUM AND HER LITTER OF CUTE GOLDENDOODLE PUPPIES
POOR little Millie the Goldendoodle has a nasty case of mastitis…
It all happened so quickly…
One minute she was feeding happily and the next she became quite poorly…
She had a high temperature and became very “spacey…”
She simply couldn’t lie down – but still allowed the puppies to feed by sitting upright…
A quick examination showed one of her teats was swollen and inflamed…
Luckily the pups had fed well – were sleeping soundly and we rushed Millie to the vets…
He was fantastic and agreed it was indeed mastitis…
He gave her two injections (both safe for the puppy milk) – antibiotic and a pain killer…
Within minutes Millie was much happier…
Infact she pulled us out of the surgery to the car – such was her haste to get home !!!
CHECKING MILLIE IS NOT IN TOO MUCH DISCOMFORT WHILST NURSING HER PUPPIES
On her return she immediately checked on the babies…
Before lying down gingerly and falling asleep for a good 3/4 of an hour…
It was the longest sleep she’s had since the puppies were born…
Once awake I checked her sore teat again and gently massaged it with olive oil…
In fact I gave all of her nipples a good gentle clean…
Millie seemed to really enjoy the close attention and lay happily on her back…
The swelling had gone down considerably and Millie was more than happy to return to her whelping box…
The puppies on the other hand seemed none to concerned at mums return !!!
They had all curled up together and were all snoring in a deep contended full belly sleep…
Millie was a little miffed and eventually began licking and nosing them to wake.,..
It was a great relief to us all that the puppies immediately “latched on” and fed happily…
The vet had recommended we allowed the pups to suckle the swollen teat…
This would both gauge Millie’s pain level – and of course help bring down the inflammation…
We rotated the aggressive and gentle feeders and was delighted to see Millie showed no discomfort…
“PINKY” ONE OF THE MORE GENTLE PUPPIES HELPING TO NURSE HER MUM
The great news is Millie stayed with the puppies all night…
And I can assure you all they have gorged themselves on her milk !!!
My partner stayed with them and says it was the most peaceful night they’ve had…
I managed to sleep a little longer despite my concerns…
As soon as I came down this morning I coaxed Millie on her back to check her nipples…
I am so relieved to say the swelling has almost completely gone !!!
I have weighed all the puppies and am delighted to say they have all gained weight considerably…
They are all feisty squeaky and none the worse for yesterdays dramas…
And as you can see all happy content and coming on amazingly well…
MUM AND DAUGHTER GOLDENDOODLES SNUGGLING AND SLEEPING TOGETHER
OK I shall leave you with the latest pictures of Goldendoodle Millie and her cute puppies…
Millie and me are off to the vets this morning for a quick check up…
I’ll let you know how it goes – but pretty sure everything is more than OK !!!
Put it this was I’m a lot happier taking her today than I was yesterday !!!
As always thanks for your messages it’s really helping us all!!!
Lots of love Kate – Millie and the doods and doodettes XXX

MILLIE THE GOLDENDOODLE MUSES ON PREGNANCY
JUST a quick up date on Millie the Goldendoodle and her due whelping date…
The past few days have been hard for her to say the least…
She’s never really liked warm weather…
But this week has seen temperatures soaring and with it Millie’s mood dropping…
The good news is she’s finished her antibiotics and her cough has completely cleared up…
But her belly is now the size and shape of a beach ball lol…
A beach ball full of little Goldendoodle puppies squirming wriggling and kicking…
And boy do those boys and girls kick!!!
My partner says if there’s eleven puppies they’ll be named (temporarily of course) as the England World Cup squad !!!
She’s finding it very difficult to get comfortable and to settle…
We moved the laptop outside on Friday and placed a huge umbrella for Millie to sleep under…
It was in the shade of a huge bush she used to play in as a puppy (more on that later lol)…
She seemed pretty pleased and let out a huge sigh and literally collapsed…
However little be known to us a family of blackbirds had built a nest in the very same bush…
And you guessed it that very moment the chicks hatched…
Mom and dad blackbird began their feeding ritual and each time they crashed into the bush Millie jumped with fright!!!
I truly thought the shock would bring on her “labour” – but luckily it didn’t…
I just hope the blackbirds survive – we have enough on our hands with a litter of Goldendoodle puppies…
Without hand rearing baby birds !!!!
OK back to Millie and her bushes…
We have a feeling another bush by the shed is her chosen whelping spot…
She has been desperately trying to get behind it all week…
It might be the shade she’s craving – silly girl wont go indoors – but I’m not so sure…
Might be a good idea to block it off !!!
I spoke to Sam from Gun Dogs UK this week – she’s the breeder we got Millie from…
She’s been fantastic support through this and has become a good friend…
However I wasn’t too happy when she told me about Millie’s mom and whelping…
“She’s always exactly 5 days late…” she said cheerfully….
I nearly died – I’ve booked the whole week off work ha ha !!!
Ah well whatever will be will be – and my boss is pretty flexible over the next couple of weeks…
So fingers crossed Millie will be giving birth this Tuesday…
If not it’ll be next weekend…
I’m sure not something Millie would want lol…
OK thanks again for all you comments and messages – it really means a lot to us all…
Until next time love from me Millie’s mom Kate and wags and licks from Millie XxX

JUST CALL ME THE ‘DOODLE WHISPERER HAHA !!!
WHAT a fantastic weekend for a ‘Doodle Meet !!!
Gin clear skies – hot sunshine – great people – tons of ‘doodle’s and plenty of shade !!!
And an absolutely beautiful camp site set in the stunning Kingsbury Water Park…
It was fantastic to put faces to so many names from Doodle Mania – the best ‘doodle owner forum on line…
Unlike the ‘Doodle Meet we attended last year this time we were just day visitors…
Millie is just two weeks away from giving birth to her litter of Goldendoodle puppies…
So we felt all the excitement might be too much for her…
However after her initial thrill at seeing all her mates and of course Biddy her best buddy…
BIDDY AND MILLIE BEST MATES SINCE PUPPIES
She soon settled and seemed to really enjoy herself…
Millie was so happy to see Biddy’s mum and dad Paddy and Lynn…
She jumped up and licked Lynn to pieces !!!
As for Paddy – Millie absolutely loves him to bits – as far as Millie is concerned he’s her second dad !!!
PADDY IN A TANGLE WITH SO MANY GOLDENDOODLES AROUND !!!
We all have to thank Julie for the lovely bandanna she made for ALL the ‘doodles !!!
Pink for the girls and blue for the boys !!!
Doodle Mania are tireless in their efforts to raise cash for dog/pet charities…
This event was predominantly to raise funds for the incredible Hounds For Heroes…
They train and provide assistance dogs to both members of the armed forces…
And civilian emergency services who have been injured serving their country…
It’s a registered charity and well worth your support…
PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY TO HOUNDS FOR HEROES
We totally endorse this amazing charity and suggest either a donation however big or small…
Or to buy a set of their superb and very trendy “dog tags”…
Millie has a set and loves them !!!
OK back to the ‘Doodle Meet…
Despite the heat Millie was happy to sit in the shade and enjoy all the attention…
GOLDENDOODLES ENJOYING THE SHADE !!!
And there was lots of it – and ice cream thanks to Julie and cold drinks thanks to Lynn !!!
Everybody it seemed wanted to rub Millie’s big fat tummy !!!
The puppies are now moving and it was a joy to see people’s – especially the children’s – smiles when they felt a tiny wriggle…
We were very pleased to meet a family who intend to have one of Millie’s Godlendoodle puppies…
Jane – Kevin and children had driven up from Surrey and immediately loved being fussed by so many different ‘Doodles !!!
Millie was absolutely charming and took to the children immediately…
Especially Felicity whom Millie absolutely idolized…
MILLIE THE GOLDENDOODLE AND FELICITY
They are indeed a lovely family and the lucky Goldendoodle puppy will have a fantastic life with them…
They live very close to Doodle Mania owners Rob and Caroline…
And have already researched the nearest ‘Doodle Meet and plan to get the new pup at the first one they can!!!
Doodle Mania is a fantastic forum for all ‘doodle types – and you’re sure to get superb advice and make amazing friends – so pop along !!!
Everyone had arrived by around 3pm and were ready for the ‘doodle walk…
LATE ARRIVALS AT THE ‘DOODLE MEET
‘DOODLES COOLING DOWN WITH ICE CREAM BEFORE THE BIG WALK
MILLIE LEADS THE WAY ON THE MIDLANDS DOODLE MEET BIG WALK
Millie was extremely anxious to get going…
And being the “princess” she is…
Just had to lead the way…
We had to chuckle at her wriggly bottom – walking just like a pregnant duck haha…
Kevin took her lead and Millie was very well behaved – so much so each of the children held the lead for a while…
Once near the water we let her and the others off the leads and splish splash Millie and Biddy were in !!!
Typically my camera went on the blink so sadly no more photos – suffice it to say a few people got splashed and very wet…
A pack of wet ‘doodles shaking off the water has that effect – a much needed cold shower you could say haha…
We decided to cut the walk short to give Millie a breather…
Of course we got lost going back (it’s a beautiful place peppered with lakes – canals and woodland paths)…
And unbelievably ended up walking further than all the others !!!
MILLIE’S “BOYFRIEND” RALPH
Millie managed admirably – but boy was she ready for a big cold drink !!!
We went home pleasantly tired and very very happy…
Millie however slept the sleep of the just – we could hear her contented snores through the night!!!
You can see all the photos from the May Midlands ‘Doodle Meet on Millie’s photo gallery – as well as many more photos…
And watch this space for two new Goldendoodle and Doodle photo sites – I’m very excited at launching them very soon…
So I’m off to assemble a whelping box so Millie can get used to it before she gives birth…
So until then once again thanks to everyone who organized the fantastic Midlands ‘Doodle Meet…
It was a fab day and sorry we couldn’t stay longer…
And thanks to you the readers of this blog for your kind words and wonderful message of support…
Myself and Millie truly appreciate it – so thank you and keep them coming !!!
These are truly exciting times with Millie due to have her litter of Goldendoodle puppies in two weeks time !!!
I’m a little nervous but pretty sure Millie will be a superb mum…
Until the next time…
Love Kate and big licks and wags from Millie XxX

THREE WEEKS TO GO UNTIL MILLIE GIVES BIRTH TO GOLDENDOODLE PUPPIES!!!
Just a quick update on Millie the Goldendoodle’s pregnancy…
We have received tons of enquiries for one of her puppies…
And I have spoken to everyone so far…
It’s been a pleasure to meet so many lovely kind real “dog people” lol…
And so far everyone has the most perfect loving home to offer…
So a big thank you from me and a loving lick from Millie…
Those of you who have now met her know she really does love to lick you haha…
She has always been a loving gentle cuddly dog…
She is what we call a “floopy little girl” haha…
As in soft – gentle – loving and very much in cuddles…
Being in pup has made it more so – and I have to say I love cuddling her…
That’s the beauty of the Goldendoodle breed…
They are mad as hatters and nuts to play with…
They love long walks – free runs and playing…
GOLDENDOODLES LOVE EXERCISE!!! (taken moments after mating Millie the Goldendoodle)
However they’re just as happy lying on their backs snoring…
MILLIE THE GOLDENDOODLE SNORING
A proper mix of boundless energy and couch potato haha…
Millie the Goldendoodle is now a little over three weeks away for giving birth to her litter…
To say I’m nervous and excited is an understatement…
We’ve decided on the dining room as the “nursery”…
It’s warm and quiet and plenty of space…
I have got a whelping kit – complete with stethoscope lol…
Plenty of newspapers – absorbent puppy pads and blankets…
Millie is in great health and everything looks good for the big day…
The vet would not tell us how many pups she was expecting…
But the list of people wanting one of Millie’s puppies is growing…
Part of me feels awful for those at the end of the queue…
But Mother Nature will decide how many Goldendoodle puppies Millie has…
And there’s not much more I can do about that haha…
Thanks again to all who have contacted me – it really has been a pleasure getting to know you…
And I truly hope you are one of the lucky ones…:)
Stay tuned for more updates as Millie the Goldendoodle gets closer to giving birth…
And as for Millie herself…
She’s in great spirits and even manages a token “play every now and then…”
SO MANY TOYS FOR A GOLDENDOODLE TO PLAY WITH BUT OH SO TIRING
But we mums know only too well just how tiring pregnancy can be lol…
We have began increasing her food a little…
However the little minx will not eat her kibble…
This is worrying as she needs the nutrients…
However my partner had a brainwave – not that he has many haha…
Millie absolutely adores tripe sticks – uggh the smell…
So he actually grated tripe stick shavings into her kibble!!!
She of course wolfed them down haha…
OK that’ll do for now – I’m off to give Millie a shower and blow dry…
Thanks for all your enquiries and again thanks to those of you who have come to visit…
And please keep the messages of support coming – I do so love to hear from you…
Love Kate and Millie XxX
