Just a note to say "hi" from Kramer! Kramer has adjusted beautifully to our family and absolutely loves all the dogs in the neighborhood. We can't go anywhere without him being the center of attention (and he loves it). He's the socialite of the neighborhood, he is better known than his parents. I know it's a little premature, however, Kramer has entered a "Cutest Dog" contest - we'll keep you updated on how he does. Kramer just turned 2 years old and is 37.5 lbs.
We are moving to Pittsburgh and love Kramer so much we are considering another addition to our family. When do you expect the next mini-English doodle litter? Please let us know. Thanks!

She is wonderfull! Gracie is housebroken and learning lots tricks. She loves everyone, humans and dogs. Very interested in everything that is going on around her. We are working on her not digging under the fence.... she likes to visit everyone in the neighborhood. She has been swimming in the pool already, its going to be tuff to keep her out of it this summer. Very pleased! Thank you ~Jennifer
His name is Rusty and he is a love bug. I swear that he gets cuter every day! We even have customers at our store that call ahead before they come to see if Rusty is going to be there....it's TOO funny. He weighs about 35 lbs at almost 10 months old and his color has not faded at all. Non-shedding so far - so I really expect him to stay that way. He is everything we were looking for in a puppy. He looks like a little teddy bear and I absolutely love his easy going attitude and his coloring is fabulous and hard to find (I looked) Sometimes I think people prefer females because they think that they are more affectionate. Not true. Rusty is very affectionate and loves to give kisses (licks). They are also less expensive to neuter. I liked that Ashley is a smaller breeder and the puppies get much more human interaction and socialization than a large breeder (like Toby's) and it shows. When Rusty arrived, he was even more beautful than the pictures and smelled so good because she had given him a bath before shipping him. Rusty weighs about 50 lbs and is just the sweetest, best dog that anyone could ask for. He really loves everyone and is very affectionate. He has a very even, sweet temperment. It's hard to believe that he will be 2 years old in a little over 2 months - time flies! ~Elisa
JUST WANTED TO SAY MERRY CHRISTMAS.
I am doing just great & love it here! Missy is the best dog yet & is so friendly & easygoing. Everyone Loves her! She know the xmas cookies are in the pantry so she goes in there & waits for someone to pass & then barks.
She was a hit in the Halloween parade & because of her color she is an instant attraction.
Still no shedding & full grown weight is 28 lbs.
She thinks she needs a sister!

How are you doing? Kali is coming up on 1 year old (next week) and so I thought I would send you a little update on her.
She is very petite - only 20 lbs - and probably full grown. But for how small she is, she has a TON of energy! She loves to go on walks and play with her dog friends. She is wonderful around children and adults both.
Kali gets attention everywhere we go! Even on our regular walk around the local lake, someone is always asking us what kind of dog she is. They love how small she is, how soft she is, how cute she is! (Can you tell we are proud owners?!!)
Thanks again!

Maxy (Micah & Maddie) is growing up so fast! He’s 7 months today and around 22 lbs. He’s a big fluffy boy! Super smart and (I think) the best in his puppy class! He’s so sweet and loving! I don’t know what I’d do without him… Thank you so much for my wonderful boy! I think that maybe he’ll need a sister in a year or so! This is a recent picture of a trip to the park – isn’t he a cutie!? Thanks again so much! Take care!

Ashley: Our Oso ('Bear' in Spanish) is now a beautiful, big-hearted 7-month-old puppy, and we adore him, his sweet nature and bright, outgoing spirit. Our obedience trainer considers him "really intelligent" and it's true. (Except when he filters out unwanted commands of course.) At 7 months, he is just 21 pounds, and it doesn't look as if he will grow much more.
Oso's conformation remains awesome. He has a gorgeous, lithe form, and perfect proportions. And his jumps, turns, and runs are worthy of Westminster. More of a poodle agility than retriever, and sometimes I think a border collie when I watch him play with his B.C. friend. His legs are long as well, and he definitely cuts a handsome figure, much more beautiful than other Doodles that we've seen. I'm planning to do some agility training with him this summer. We have a great program here. I never dreamed that I'd get this involved, but Oso is so much fun.
I can't tell you how happy we are to have him. Oso entertains us constantly, loves us whole-heartedly and joyfully. He is the friend of every child, stranger, and acquaintance, and we can't imagine life without him. Thank you, Ginny
Hi Ashley, I just received a call from a gal I referred to you last week. She fell in love with Bella, and stayed in my store for about 45 minutes admiring her and asking questions.
Bella was your July 31st, 2006 litter. We love her so very much, every day my 17 year old daughter says that Bella is the prettiest dog in the world and how much everyone loves her!
I hope all is well with you. If you need my reference in any way, just tell me! I am attaching 1 of a million pics I have of her!!!
Have a GREAT day!
Bella's mom, Melissa Rinker
Hello Ashley,
How are you? I just wanted you to see how well Lucas is doing. Lucas is much lighter then when he was a puppy. Isn't he beautiful? We just love him. God Bless,
Patricia, Brian, Sarah, Hayden and Erin
Lynden is 9.5 months old (from Micah/Gaya litter of June 1, 2008) and is an absolute joy! He still is such a "love-bug” (as you and your family once deemed him). He gets non-stop attention anywhere we go and everyone adores him. He truly looks like a teddy bear with his big paws and big black noise and lips and his coat is SO soft! I’ve had numerous people stop me and ask where I got him from. Not just his looks either; I have repeatedly heard things like: “wow he’s so well behaved….what a great personality ….you’re very lucky”
Lynden is very laid back, calm, attentive and just happy just to be with you. He comes on trail jogs with me and I never need a leash, he retrieves a ball and drops it at your feet; he even starting swimming at 3 months old!! He’s a very fast learner. When walking on the leash he stays right at your side. His favourite place though is off leash at the dog park. He is such a clown, running around saying hi to every dog and their owners. When we are home he is absolutely content to play by himself with his toys.
At first he grew like a weed! He was only 7 pounds when we brought him home and he doubled that in a matter of 2 weeks! He is currently 37lbs. Still no shedding and I have absolutely no allergy issues, I can bury my face in his fur and I have no reaction!
I highly recommend you and your family as a top breeder of the English Mini/Midi-Golden Doodle. He is EXACTLY what I asked for: coat, size, perfect amount of energy and that amazing English Retriever “lay at your feet” temperament. We love him!
Thank you again for our great dog!

Loves to play. Great with the kids. Loves being part of the family.
Including two pictures of Finnegan when he was 1 1/2 old. Take care.
