Everyone who meets Eloise falls in love with this 'Thumbelina' version of a Labradoodle. For lack of an official size category, I am calling her a 'Micro Labradoodle'. At 8.5 lbs. +/-, what else fits???
Eloise at 2 years old. |
Ellie has a lot of Poodle in her genes but her grand dam was a very small Labrador of just 40 lbs., so considered very small for her breed. Her grand dad was a Toy Poodle and it is very obvious, Miss Ellie takes after her Poodle side. In any language, Eloise Moppet is the 'cat's meow' (and just as big!). Although Jaxon had been her initial intended stud, he grew too big for such a tiny girl. Hence, I made the sad decision to have Eloise spayed and retired with never having a litter. Finding a qualified, micro mini, well tested stud to use with her became an overwhelming obstacle. It is more important to me to allow her guardians to spay her and be the Little Princess she is without dealing with all the hormonal effects of remaining intact.
What her guardians say about Eloise:
Eloise at about 1 yr. |
Ellie loves
to chase a ball or a little Frisbee but she also enjoys sitting near us
when we watch TV or read. She will frequently go right up the the TV
and bark when dogs come on the screen or a door bell rings on TV.
She does well when she is home alone but prefers to be by our side at all times. We adore her and couldn't ask for a better friend.
