Hi Valois:
It certainly has been a long time since we've talked. I wanted to finally send you a few photos of Tucker, who is now 15 months old! He was from the Lacy/Toby litter born in January 2008. Tucker has been an incredibly wonderful addition to our family. He has such a great temperament and a very fun personality. He LOVES to play ball, especially soccer and is quite adept at trapping the ball plus he has amazing speed! He really enjoys playing keep away. Tucker now weighs about 60 pounds. Shedding is pretty minimal which is really nice. We keep his coat at about 3 inches and my husband has become quite the groomer. We get compliments everywhere we take him! Thank you again for such an awesome dog.

Valois,
Kaia is a great dog, very vigorous, healthy, friendly, very trainable, and wants to please. She always wears a "smile". She is about 50-55lbs, loves to fetch and swim. One of the greatest features of these doodles is NO SMELL! We previously owned 4 goldens which we loved, but they were always pungent even soon after a bath. Shedding is only a problem after the all too infrequent brushing I give her. We love the long hair look of these dogs but will probably have to break down a get a haircut soon. Lots of stuff likes to get tangled in her hair. Here coat is mainly straight with a slight wave.
We are very happy with her,

VaLois,
Here are some pictures of Maggie. She was born on 9/6/06. Her mother is Clover and dad is Toby. In the photo gallery she is in the picture that has the green background first row last puppy (blue &.white checkered scarf) with "Female SOLD CALIFORNIA). At four months she was 27.5 lbs and at five months she was 33 pounds. She thinks she is a lap dog! Most people assume she is a full grown dog and she is only 6 months old. The vet expects her to be 60-65 lbs. She is very, very smart. (The picture of her bringing the newspaper was when she was 3 months old and she gets it for us each morning!) She such a huge part of our family- very good with our four young children. She definitely loves water a lot and loved it when she played in the snow in Tahoe.
She goes into her crate at night and cried only one night. We keep the door open and she hangs out in it during the day when she wants to be alone. We take her everywhere with is and she is extremely well behaved.
She does not shed at all, after brushing her the brush has no hair in it. I do need to brush her a lot though as her hair sports the shaggy look. I bought a dog grooming kit at Costco as her hair does grow very fast and she lets me groom her.
We too get stopped wherever we go and she loves the attention! Thanks for Maggie!

Hi VaLois,
Well, I have been meaning to send you a note along with some current photos of our precious Sadie to show you how adorable she is. She is 4 months old now and has just been such a joy and wonderful addition to our family. I think she is one of the smartest puppies I know. She knows 8 commands so far (sit, stay, come, down, rollover, sit pretty, shake, and crawl). Not bad. She adjusted so quickly when she arrived to her new home and had no problems with being in her kennel at night time. She makes us all laugh so hard with her silly/playful personality.
I just took her out to a dog park for the first time this morning and what a blast that was. Everyone thought she was beautiful and asked what kind of dog she is. My neighbor around the corner has an 8 month old male who she loves to play with. She gets along with everyone and thinks everyone wants to play with her when we go for walks. I do have one little issue with her. She loves to drag my toilet paper from the roll all over the house when I am not looking, can't help but laugh at that one.
VaLois, thank you so much for such an awesome job you do with your breeding and for how professional and attentive you were in dealing with me long distance. Your dogs are truly the best and I have recommended your puppies to everyone who asks. I look forward to many years with our Sadie Doodle. We will be taking her on a road trip with us to Montana this summer! I have attached some photos.
Sincerely,Kerri Kerr
