FIVE YEAR OLD Update From Australia
"BONNIE"
daughter of Rutlands Stella and Shannon |
|
31st
October
2007
Hello
Rutland
Manor,
We
thought
we’d
like to
say
hello
today as
it’s our
beautiful
“Bonnie’s”
5th
birthday.
We
collected
Bonnie
from
Rutland
Manor
back in
December
2002
(Stella/Shannon
baby)
and have
had the
most
wonderful
family
pet/member
from
that
day. She
receives
compliments
each
time we
go
walking.
Our
friends
and
family
all love
her to
pieces.
She is
so
devoted
to us
and
feeds on
and
gives
affection
generously.
Once
again
hello to
Bonnie’s
birth
family
and
thanks
for a
great
friend.
Regards
Sharon

Update From Berlin Germany
"CINDY "
Daughter of Clementine and Nirvana |
Well our
Cindy has taken over Berlin. There is not a
place where you can go to without people just
falling in love with her and asking what type of
dog she is etc, etc. She is a huge advertisement
for labradooodles here and should be on
royalties.
We have to
say that the labradoodle is just as you
described them - in every way. Really great is
that it has worked perfectly with Gabriela's
allergy.
Above
all else is Cindy's relationship to our
daughter, Ashley: they are two pigs in mud.
Inseperable. It is so cute and hilarious seeing
a five year old training a dog and the dog doing
everything she says! (in the first few weeks it
was really hard going with the Cindy's biting
Ashley and other kids. We took your advice here
as well and since then there has been no further
trouble) .
Ashley is so
proud of her Cindy: in kindergarten she is the
attraction, here in the neighbourhood- the other
kids love her and Ashley knows it!
Since almost after her first week here we have
been going to dog school with Cindy twice a
week.
Firstly,
it is great because Cindy has all sorts of mates
that she can play with ( she is the toughest and
roughest of all there, dobermans etc included)
and secondly, she has really learnt. Again,
exactly as you said it she is. She really
wants to learn and it is amazing at how clever
they are.
I would say
she is very well behaved and listens well. As
you can see we are having fun! She is too!
Lots
of love

California
Welcomes
"KUMA"
November
2007
Son of
Kisses
and
Rustie
Ryan |
Kuma arrived in Los
Angeles Thursday
morning. 
So he's here, and
cute as a button!
He only peed in the
house once so far.
He learned to ring
his Poochie Bells in
one day. He
seems to know a few
other things.
I'm wondering if you
used the phrase
"Drop it" when he
chewed something
wrong. He
keeps chewing his
leash, and when I
say, "Drop it," he
stops. And
I've told him "sit"
and "come" and he
seems to know them
too.
He seems happy with
his crate.
It's in the living
room in the day and
in the bedroom at
night. He goes
in all on his own to
nap all day long.
This morning I made
him some greens,
squash, red bell
pepper, garlic,
apple, and banana in
the food processor.
I mixed it with a
little cottage
cheese, rice, and
cooked chicken meat.
He seemed to love
it, and it didn't
upset his tummy at
all. His
stools have been
fine.
I just wanted to
tell you he's fine,
healthy, and I
already love him!
Thanks so much.

Dear people at Rutland Manor,
Meggie was born on 0ctober 24 in 2005. Her mom and dad are Lil Ruby and Yogi Bear and we received Meggie on january 13, 2006 and she has been a real joy to us ever since. We love her very much and we think that she is the most beautiful dog in the world!!!!
Meggie is smart, very comical and a real sweetheart for children of all ages. We are taking her to obedience-class and she learns quickly. She absolutely loves water... she likes to swim in the river and we often take her canoeing. The sandy beaches of our Dutch coast are another favorite of hers. She likes to dig and dig and dig....
Meggie started off with a black fleecy coat and after a while she started to turn chocolaty brown/black. That must be Yogi Bear's genes!!!
Our vet was very impressed with Meggie. She is the first labradoodle to come to his practice and he thought that she was in excellent shape when she arrived from Australia. You people do a wonderful job!!! Meggie is a healthy, strong and well-balanced dog. You prepare the dogs very well for their overseas trips and they are truely bench-trained when they arrive. Wonderful.
We have never been able to keep a dogs because of the allergies in our family. With Meggie all this has changed. Her coat is fantastic. No allergic reaction. It is a miracle. And we are so blessed. Thank you.
