(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 !!!
