Maple's litter have all gone home. (Tillie, too!)

Another litter has been successfully placed and from reports seem to be doing very well. I want all of you to know that I am always here for you to answer questions or to listen to concerns. This is what our program is all about. Care and concern does not end just because they are no longer here at Annabelle Doodles! :+)

I spent the afternoon shopping for some shrubs to plant in our pool area and enjoyed perusing through all the brightly colored flowers. Once I finish bleaching the puppy room tomorrow, I will get to play in the garden.

Camden is enjoying her guardian family and they are learning all about puppy behavior. Severe allergies kept this family from ever owning a dog, so this is a 'first'. We are keeping our fingers crossed that all continues to go well.


This seemed to be the litter for allergic families! These happy folks are all smiles to enjoy their first doggie as well! Lots of controlled visits and perseverance has paid off. Finley will also have the pleasure of playing with her sibling, Seamus, as the two families are very close.


Emme will continue to always provide lots of smiles for her new family. She also gets to enjoy life both in the suburbs and the Maine coast - lucky girl!!


Seamus was a surprise birthday gift to this couple's adult daughter. They came to visit with their friends and ended up with a pup that became available at the last minute. There is lots to love about Seamus in size and temperament.


Funny how things happen. Diane accompanied her friend Dina, to view my previous litter as Dina was getting a pup. It wasn't long after they left that I received an email from Diane asking to be placed on Maple's list. Diane lived through the Annablog twice - once for Dina and then for her bundle of fur, Stella. :+)


What a great college graduation gift! It pays to be a good student! :+) Amy will be taking Riley with her to teach at a private school that is very dog friendly. I don't think Riley will be alone much at all with a dorm full of students who will want to walk and play with her.


Rueben has been doing extremely well with his guardian family and they love him. He left at 11 weeks to be with them. We have high hopes that he will join our stud list one day.


Lastly, little Dancing Matilda, lovingly called our 'resident duck' because she loves the water has gone to be with her guardian for a few days. We will be taking turns with her for a bit as our schedules work themselves out. Tillie is the daughter of our stud, Rumple and was my pick from a litter he sired for another breeder. She has quickly captured our hearts. It is Joanne's and my hope that she will become a Therapy Dog.
