My foundation girl, Annabelle.

I can't believe Annabelle will be 11 years old on January 12, 2014.  This is one amazing Labradoodle! She is a character in so many ways and the most loveable creature on this earth.
What better time to celebrate her than at Christmas 2013.

 

NELLIE BLY has her permanent home - THANK YOU, Santa!

Merry Christmas to me and this family!
Nellie has found her permanent Guardian Home.

There is a wonderful ending to the sad event of Nellie's first placement having to give her up due to family circumstances.  I am sure Ro will be happy to know that Miss Nellie Bly is happily bonding with her new family. This lucky girl is now living in a private school campus surrounded by other dogs and doodles, tons of kids and activities with a stay at home mom.  Everyone is smitten by this special girl and she is getting lots of attention and playtime with her human siblings.

Going for lots of walks and experiencing all kinds of new smells and sights, Nellie is a happy girl. She loves playing in the snow with her kids and especially catching snowballs.

Christmas IS full of miracles and we all just witnessed one.  Thanks so much for every one's support and I know that all of you will have smiles on your faces when you read this updated post.

PS - As stated above, I so appreciated every one's positive comments when an 'anonymous' poster was rude  but have eliminated the original post now that Nellie has her permanent home.

What a shot to welcome the holiday spirit! (FELIX IS RETIRED)

Tis the season..... and our very debonair and handsome stud, FELIX GUMSHOE wants to be the first to wish everyone the merriest of Christmases and most healthful and safe NEW YEAR from the ANNABELLE DOODLE family.

Felix is the perfect candidate for my Home Page holiday pic as he is a black turning silver - and what better color to ring in the festivities.  :+)  If I ever keep a girl from him, I think I will name her 'Silver Belles'.  :+)

Thank you so much Deb for capturing this terrific pic and sharing it with me!  KUDOS!!!
