Firstly let me wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

A little late – but it’s been crazy here!!!

It only seems like yesterday I was posting Goldendoodles in the snow photos!!!

A year on and little Millie (ok not so little lol) still loves the white stuff!!!

Although snowmen scare the pants off her!!!

They say never work with kids or animals…

So typically the day I took the video camera…

Our Goldendoodle was brave as can be!!!

If only we could have captured her first sight of a snowman!!!

It truly was hilarious…

Millie is very excited at the moment…

Not I hasten to add that we’re off to Goa for two weeks very soon…

But more because she gets to spend a whole fortnight with her greatest friend…

Biddy and Millie together means trouble!!!

A special thanks to Paddy and Lynn!!!

We’re going to miss her terribly but she’s in great hands…

And sure to have loads of fun!!!

OK I’m off to pack my bikini and sun tan lotion…:)

I shall leave you with some photos of Millie the Goldendoodle playing in the snow…

C’ya…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Millie!!!

Yes our little Goldendoodle puppy Millie is one today!!!

And my how she’s grown!!!



This Is My Rock Chick Look

No Pictures I’m Famous!!!

Seems like only yesterday this little bundle of fluff arrived…

She has been an absolute star through house moves – builders you name it…

And all that life can throw at a baby puppy Goldendoodle!!!

House training was a complete breeze…

There’s been no chewing – OK we had a little “mouthing” as a 3 month old pup…

She isn’t fussy over feeding – has excellent table manners!!!

And as she gets that little bit older maybe the “dog people blindness” might stop!!!

As in – “Oh dog / people ” Millie charges over to say Hi!!!

But truly she has been an absolute angel – a real pleasure and a real intregal part of our family…

She shall be celebrating her first birthday with what else but a swim in the local river!!!



Goldendoodle Puppy Millie Swimming In River

She just needs to learn how to get out gracefully!!!

If you’re looking for the perfect loving soft fluffy family pet…

I shall keep saying it – BUY A GOLDENDOODLE PUPPY!!!!

IN all seriousness we got Millie from Gundogs UK…

And we can only highly recommend them…

They really are superb breeders…

So now there really are no excuses!!!

Right we’re off for her birthday swim…

C’ya x

THERE’S A TIME WHEN ALL GIRLS NEED THE HAIRDRESSERS

How to groom a Goldendoodle…

Or more’s the point when should you or even should you…

As the summer arrived little Millie was hidden behind a floppy – albeit trendy – fringe…

There were times she was mistaken for an industrial mop such was the shagginess…

We tried the hair bun but it would never stay in…

We even tried the David Beckham Goldendoodle hair band…

I’M NOT GOING OUT WITH THAT THING ON I LOOK STUPID

But as the days got hotter she became more and more uncomfortable…

Seeking refuge in any shade in the garden…

A GOLDENDOODLE IN THE BUSH IS WORTH ONE IN THE HAND

And so we called the dog groomer…

“Ummmm…” she said…

“Never done a Goldendoodle before – make sure she’s tangle free else I shall have to shave her…”

We all shuddered – we love Millie’s mad crazy Goldendoodle curls and fluff…

Now tangle free sounds fair enough – however Millie had tangles on tangles inside an enigma of tangles…

And so I popped her in the shower with me and conditioned to my hearts content…

As there was a glimmer of sunshine – and she hates hairdryers – I let nature take its course…

WAKE ME WHEN YOU’VE FINISHED MY BLOW DRY AND SET MUM

She’s so big now the only way to comb and brush her through is literally on my lap…

As you can see she’s pretty good with the whole thing…

Mostly…

We even managed to snip a bit off her fringe – and boy did she need it!!!

A BIT OFF THE FRONT AND LEAVE THE BACK PLEASE BARBER

The day of the grooming arrived…

Millie apparently took it all in her stride whilst I waited outside a nervous wreck…

I prayed I had got every single knot and tangle out…

I really didn’t want a bald Goldendoodle!!!

And so it was with some relief I saw her…

Nails clipped – jacuzzi – bubble bath and 2 inch clip all over…

“She needs a firm hand with a hair dyer…” barked the groomer ” don’t take any nonsense…”

I smiled and thanked her…

I’ll show you the photos next time…

Until then…

Let’s just say I wonder which bowl the groomer used to cut around her fringe!!!

WooHoo Snow Day!!!

And oh boy does our little girl love the snow!!!

She now stands at the patio window looking expectantly at the sky…

She’s miffed to say the least if there’s not a single flake to be seen…

If there’s snow – as soon as the door’s open she’s out like a blur!!!

Racing around the garden barking her head off!!!



I Love The Snow I Luuuuurve SNOW!!!!



I Mean I Really REALLLY Love it!!!


And a blur is exactly what we mean haha…

There really is something so cute about a doodle in the snow…

Particularly when she enjoys it like Millie does…



Can I Bath In It..? Can I Huh..?



Nope But You Can Take A Snow Shower!!!


That’s not me kicking her I hasten to add…:)

More a little game we HAVE to play…

It involves kicking as much snow as possible at her as she catches it…

Good exercise for my thighs I have to say and little Goldendoodle Millie loves it!!!



I’m Ready For My Christmas Card Close Up Now


On a more serious note – though how’s that possible with a Goldendoodle puppy!!!

Millie has – according to the vet – reached adolescence…

Aaaarrrggh if having a teenage son isn’t bad enough (joking honest)…

Then a puppy..?

Well we haven’t had her teenage health check yet – that’s next week…

But we have certainly noticed a few changes…

Obviously she’s growing fast and filling out…

But she also likes to test our resolve…

Where once she was quick on recall…

Now she thinks about it and eventually rushes towards us…

Before skidding away at the last minute!!!

A little pirouette later and madam eventually sits nicely in front of us…

Frustrating – definitely – but consistency will win through we hope…

She also seems to be sleeping more…

That could be the amount of exercise she gets – very healthy walks and runs…



A Bath Together..? It’s Our First Meeting!!!

It really does feel like we’re losing the puppy and seeing the dog…

Although put a ball in front of her and the pup is back!!!

Fingers crossed we’ve had no serious teething/chewing issues…

But we are not resting on our laurels…

We absolutely adore our Goldendoodle pup…

Can’t imagine life without her if I’m honest…

She’s sassy funny cute mad crazy gentle clever and pretty as hell…

I say it every time but if you’re looking for the perfect family dog…

There can only be one – A GOLDENDOODLE!!!!



How Could Anyone Resist..?

Go See ALL MILLIE’S Photos In The Gallery – It’s A Page In Progress!!!

FROZEN CORN ON THE COB YUMMY!!!!


The dreaded chewing and teething puppy!!!

Millie is being fantastic and not chewing too many bits of furniture…

Apart from the brand spanking new kitchen bistro chairs that is haha…

We have had to resort to all kinds of wild whacky and wonderful teething toys…

From rope pull toys soaked in stock and then frozen – Millie gives that a 5 out of 10 haha…

Expensive teething toys just sit there ignored – she’d rather eat the wrapper!!!

Teething chews are sniffed and then pushed aside with a look of utter contempt on her face…

So it was with some relief we tried frozen veg…

Carrots (whole) were nibbled nicely then spat out…

The same with apples – pears were at first munched on then ignored – but it was corn on the cob that was the big hit…

Frozen whole and Millie absolutely guzzles them down…

The iciness soothes her gums (so red and sore) and the taste drives her nuts!!!

A highly recommended and healthy teething treat – and it makes the poo interesting



MILLIE IS GROWING SO FAST!!!



As she’s starting to grow so is her world…

Though saying that the house has been in turmoil as workmen trapse in and out of the place…

Meaning we have been relegated to the kitchen – which wont be fitted until after Christmas…

Millie has taken all this in her stride and quite likes the men stopping work to fuss her to pieces!!!

Our walks have become far more adventurous with long free runs over the beautiful Comyn…



NO WORRIES MUM I KNOW THE WAY FROM HERE!!!


Millie simply adore the Comyn…

So many smells so many places to roll in the mud…

And of course tons of other dogs of all ages and sizes to play with…

The rumour that all Goldendoodles love water seems a little odd with our Millie…

She has been known to walk around puddles – but is also quite happy to paddle like a lady…



THAT’S THE BIGGEST BATH I’VE EVER SEEN!!!




MAYBE I’LL GET A LITTLE BIT WET…IF THAT’S OK MUM


Judging from our last trip to the river she’s only a few days away from jumping in!!!

It really is a a joy to see after our big long walks…

What was once a little ginger tinged bundle of white fluff…

Resembles a proper muddy mucky pup!!!

The ritual of the warm towel down the two hour sleep and then warm bath is an absolute pleasure…

All in all and given all our little Goldendoodle has had to put up with in her short life…

She’s an absolute little dream of a dog…

We love her to absolute pieces…

She’s funny – sweet – clever and has such a fun loving character…

Anyone looking for the perfect family dog…

Could do no worse than a Goldendoodle…

But then we are a little biased!!!

Millie Digs The Garden



Me Dirty..? Naw…

So little Goldendoodle puppy Millie digs our new house – LITERALLY!!!

What a fantastic little pup she’s been amidst all the chaos of the house move …

She’s handled it like a little star but got a little upset when she saw the removal guys…

They were absolutely HUGE and to a little Goldendoodle puppy it was a long way to go for a cuddle!!!

As you can see the new larger garden certainly meets to her approval…

The previous owners had emptied all their garden pots into the flower beds…

As so as Mille was let outside to “busy busy” she made a beeline for the manure…

And dived head first into it – we were laughing too much to tell her off…

And the look on her face afterwards – as you can see – was pure comedy!!!

Goldendoodles Find Flowers Delicious

Speaking of gardens – we think we have some work to do with her if our garden will survive…

She gambols outside sniffs the air and studies each bud as we would a menu…

Before chomping as fast as she can on the late Autumns blooms…

NOT GOOD!!! But it sure makes for great photos!!!

However the after effects – as in windy gas – sure makes the evenings aromatic…

And we can certainly see little Goldendoodle puppy Millie is getting bolder as she grows…

Now the stairs have become one of her favourite places for “adventures…”

Going up is pretty easy as she skips quite happily…

Hits the landing then sits patiently outside my youngest son’s room…

However if there’s only myself and Millie in the house she tends to “sneak” up there…

I spot her mid flight and call her back – normally superb on recall – the stairs is a different matter…

She eyes me with an aloof haughty look as if to say “ok mum what ya gonna do about it…”

After two or three “Millie come…” she tends to bark yap and tail wag…

It takes a lot of self control not to laugh…

Coming down worries me but not her!!!

With her cute little ass up in the air and her nose to the stairs she bounds down…

Worrying for me but fun for her – reminder to me another stairgate to be bought!!!

Gardening Exploring House Moves and Vets Are Exhausting


Yesterday was Millie’s second trip to the vets…

We couldn’t wait to weigh her after the vets concern at her arrival weight…

The little porker has almost doubled her weight!!!

Phew were we worried and half expected the vet to say she was overweight!!!

She absolutely adores the vet probably more for the treats she give her – but that is great news!!!

One week to go before our Goldendoodle pup Millie can brave the outside world…

I guess it’s time we began the lead training in earnest…

Somehow I think this is gonna be fun!!!

“We need a puppy…”
And that’s how we came across Golden Doodles…
She’s Millie and one look at that pic convinced us…
We’d researched all types of breeds…
Hunted the internet and local breeders…
Looking for that certain dog…

With Golden Doodles I think we’ve ahem struck gold!!!
At the moment our baby girl Millie is with her mum…
We’re getting regular updates and pics…
And are literally counting the days ’till we get her…

Her bed toys and bowls are bought…
We have the colar and lead…
Sought out a vet planned our walk spots…

Come back often…
And enjoy the adventures of our little Millie…
