Today, I met up with Tillie's guardian mom at the Canine Ophthalmologist 's office for her eye CERF.   She recently had a grooming and looked utterly adorable.

Tillie has had numerous classes in dog obedience as well as Therapy Dog training.  I was so proud of Tillie and extremely pleased with her wonderful guardian, Joanne, for doing such a great job with her.

As you can see, Tillie is a chocolate and white parti and I am hopeful, with the right mating, she will produce several parti-patterned furry babies in the near future.

On the smaller side of medium, my plans for Tillie are to produce large miniatures in the 20 to 25 lb. range in the near future.  I would love to breed her with my little guy Jaxon for black and white parti puppies but that will all depend on timing.  Jaxon should be ready for his early testing in September.  So, we shall see!

I was pleased as punch that Tillie had a PERFECT eye examination and will be CERF certified!  :+)

Matchmaker, matchmaker...make me a match!

        As it happens every now and again, I am able to have one of my guardian girls with me for a few days for either testing or a visit.  

Fortunately, her guardian's vacation and Camden's final testing protocol coincided perfectly.


Cappy is happy as a clam to have another friend to play with and he is not aware yet, that Camden is slated to be one of his breeding partners when he is cleared for breeding.


They took to each other right away and have been playing and sleeping near each other since her arrival.  


Sometimes, I swear they whisper 'sweet nothings' in each ones ears.  It is very cute to watch as they play bow, chase, wrestle and sometimes sit together in the little yellow sandbox car to rest.


Camden has a lovely soft medium curling cream coat and is non-shedding.  I think it will be a great pairing and look forward to it in about a year.  In the meantime, when Camden comes into heat, it will be with a different stud as Cappy is not quite ready yet. 

More Cappy pics!

Can you say straight, saber tail?

How Cappy loves to play ball!

Olive has the ball but Cappy has his eye on it to steal it back!  They love to play together.

Cappy, Capi, Cappi - leads to Capriccio!

No matter the spelling or the 'nicknames', Cappy (I like this spelling the best) continues to be such an awesome pup.  He gets along with all my girls so very well and is giving them lots of opportunities to play chase, fetch and tug.  He is, however, a sock thief!  He and Willis are constantly searching and sharing them - (only the used ones, of course!)  :+)

Yes, we continue to look for that special guardian home as Cappy deserves an amazing one with a large yard; and perhaps a place for swimming nearby.  A furry friend to be his buddy would be a bonus!  I know we are asking for a 'golden egg' situation, but why not?  

    Cappy is extremely stable and would  do quite well in a city environment with all the noise and hustle 'n' bustle of one, but we much prefer a more rural placement where woods, field, shoreline and space abound.

A social boy, he gets along with dogs, adults and children beautifully and would be a fabulous companion to any family wanting a furry friend.

I am registering Cappy for puppy class beginning June 12th, as continued learning is important for a well mannered pet.  This is the kind of pup that would make an AMAZING therapy dog.  He has it all.

Cappy sits for me without wiggling when I harness him for car rides or put on his leash; he waits calmly at the bottom of the stairs when I ask; does not bark unless prompted by an unusual noise; lies quietly by your side when I am reading or on the computer and uses our dogie door routinely, with just a few mistakes - so well on his way to house training.

He is crate trained for the evening from 11 PM to 6 or 7 AM.  Cappy loves to cuddle but is not 'needy' or 'anxious'.  He is not an obsessive licker but willingly gives kisses.  His coat is soft, silky, luxurient and non-shedding.

This is a strong medium sized boy with a sturdy conformation and unwavering temperament.  He has a valuable pedigree and a healthy family tree history.  We expect that Cappy will produce some wonderful puppies for responsible breeders to enhance the future of the Labradoodle community.  Finding him a guardian with those same values is our goal and we welcome inquiries and visits.

I have already emailed my customer list to ask for a 'report card'.  :+)
