The little Goldendoodle pups have really outgrown the whelping box…

As you can see the puppy power revolution continues…

We called this the charge of the ‘doodle brigade lol…



BEST VIEWED WHILST HUMMING THE THEME FROM THE GREAT ESCAPE

They really did make a bid for freedom – throughout most of the night too…

And whenever Millie’s Dad blocked it off – Millie would cry as she couldn’t get to them…

Letting her stay in the box caused her to overheat so it was a no win situation…

We’re all bleary eyed this morning to say the least lol…

I was downstairs at 3.30am letting her out…

We know the move to the dining room will offer them all more freedom…

However I’m pretty sure the puppy pen is designed for baby giraffes ha ha…

My metric conversion might have been a little out lol…



IF ANYONE NEEDS A BABY GIRAFFE PEN DO LET ME KNOW


Ah well it will fit a purpose – and I have a friend who’s a carpenter popping round…

We’d like him to build some kind of safe enclosure in the dining room…

OK what else is happening in the ‘doodle tribe world..?

Like most of England my partner was watching the crucial England World Cup game…

He had absolutely made sure the little pups were full to the brim of mom’s milk…

Millie had been fed and all were sleeping soundly in time for kick off…

“I reckon they’ll sleep for most of the game…” he’d said confidently…

How sweet and how naive’ men can be ha ha…

You guessed it – just before the referee blew his whistle to kick off – the pups er kicked off !!!

You have to laugh – sorry but you do lol…



Luckily he was able to pause the game – supervise the feeding frenzy – settle Millie and open a cold one…

The good news of course is England won – the bad – Germany…

Add that to a tribe of baby ‘doodles and my man will be a nervous wreck come Sunday!!!

We had a visit from a lovely family yesterday evening…

This was the one chance they could get to see the pups…

Such is the list they are waiting for the last little girl…

Tamas – the dad – spotted his favourite and really hopes she’s the one left !!!

He will just have to keep his fingers crossed as she is indeed a cutie pie…



NOT RABIES JUST WORMING MEDICINE LOL !!!!


I gave the pups their last splurge of worming medicine today…

Most of them took it quite calmly…

Little Orange Pup (as in collar lol) – wasn’t so keen…

I couldn’t grab the camera – but I swear she said “YUK!!!”

OK I shall love and leave you – a zillion things to do…

And I can hear Purple Pup plotting a tunnel dig ha ha…

Lots of love – Kate ~ Millie and the little baby ‘Doodles XxX

Involving a puppy revolt and worming lol…

Ok if you’re sitting comfortably I’ll begin lol…

I arrived home from work mid morning eager to see Millie and the pups…

As I walked into the lounge I saw Millie lying on the floor panting heavily…

Next to her covered in sweat and very dishevelled was her dad…

For a split second I thought something terrible had happened…

But no…

Lilac Puppy had decided to become head of the “Puppy Power Mafia”…



LILAC PUPPY PLOTS HER NEXT MOVE

At least that’s how Millie’s dad described it lol…

OK here’s how the story goes…

The routine after I leave for work is the whelping box is thoroughly cleaned out…

First the pups are popped into a laundry basket – giving Millie time to give them all a good clean…

The box is swept and cleaned with fresh bedding and then the cuddly toys added…

Once the pups are popped back into the box Millie goes in to rearrange everything to her liking…

She gives the Goldendoodle puppies a quick feed – or a splash and dash as we call it lol…

They then settle down for a good hours sleep – having been fed pretty much right through from 3am…

Millie will then eat a hearty breakfast before settling down for a well earned sleep…

However this particular morning Lilac Puppy was having none of it…

She had squawked whilst in the laundry basket – which is not unusual for any of them…

However once Millie had sorted them all out and the 8 puppies were sleeping…

Lilac Pup turned into rabble rouser…

She had walked up to each group of pups squawked loudly in their face before standing on them…

Once that group was awake and squealing through tiredness – she’d move onto the next…



ORANGE PUPPY MAKES A BRAVE BID FOR FREEDOM

Despite Millie’s and my partners best efforts – this went on for a good 2 hours…

With the decibel levels rising – considerably…

Removing Lilac Pup and placing her on a soft vets bed with Millie was the obvious ploy…

However – each time she fell asleep at the nipple and was placed back in the box – it began again…

After numerous attempts at calming them Millie and her dad left them to get on with it by going into the garden…

No joy lol – within 10 minutes the noise was deafening and Millie had raced back inside frantic…

You guessed it Lilac Pup had decided if she wasn’t getting her “Puppy Rights…” then it was a “dirty protest…”

8 beautiful sleepy yawning Goldendoodle puppies covered once again in gooey puppy poop…

Luckily (lol) Millie’s dad has experienced this before so the two of them set about cleaning up the mess…

Lilac Pup was the only one not touched by the goop ha ha…

Once all back in the box and settled Millie’s dad cuddled Lilac Whine (as he has now called her lol)…

Until she slept like a baby…

On my return they were all sleeping peacefully out for the count …

My timing is and has been immaculate – I miss all the action ha ha…



THE ‘DOODLE TRIBE GATHERS STRENGTH FOR THE NEXT REVOLUTION

Funnily enough I watched quietly this morning as Millie’s dad fussed over them…

Little Lilac Pup was the first to stumble over to sniff his fingers before licking his arm gently…

I think they’re big friends really ha ha…

On asking him if he had taken any photos or footage of the chaos – he just gave me a wry smile…

I guess the answer’s no ha ha…

OK back to the real ‘Doodle world…

Millie had her final check up at the vets yesterday…

The mastitis is pretty much cleared up and he’s very pleased with her progress…

She has also gained weight – which is fantastic news given the amount of energy she’s expelling…

RAISING A LITTER OF GOLDENDOODLE PUPPIES IS A TIRING BUSINESS

We’re feeding her on high protein puppy food and goats milk (watered down)…

With boiled fresh mince or chicken breast and scrambled eggs…

We also put a couple of spoons of glucose in her water…

Nice diet ha ha…

Whilst at the vet I also picked up the puppies worming medication…

I arrived back with the syringes of worm medicine and asked Millie’s dad to help…

He held the pups as I squirted the medicine into their mouths…



WORMING THE PUPPIES – MUCH EASIER WHEN THEY’RE ASLEEP !!!

Yes you guessed it – after a day covered in puppy poo and wee…

His day ended covered head to toe in worm medicine…

Topped off of course with the odd dribble of puppy piddle lol…

None of the pups seemed any worse for wear from their dose…

And this morning I was able to administer the medicine single handedly – that’s a woman for you !!!

The pups take the meds for three days and they all have little booklets in which I have recorded it…

I have the morning off so my partner was able to have a bit of a lie in…

I have absolutely adored this precious time with my Millie and the pups…

Watching them feed be cleaned and play has been an absolute joy…

It is going to be a terrible wrench when we have to say goodbye…

But hey that’s a long way away yet – and I really must enjoy the moment…

The new puppy pen arrives today – hopefully – so that’s my plan this morning…

Thanks again for all your emails phone calls and messages – I love hearing from you all…

So until tomorrow enjoy the new batch of Goldendoodle puppy photos…

Lots of love – Kate ~ Millie and the little baby ‘Doodles XxX
