Rutland Manor Australian Labradoodle Puppies Arrive in their Forever Homes Across Australia and the World in 2011
MEES Arrives in Belgium to Pia and Australian Labradoodle JOOP 2011
|
Dear Beverley,
Mees arrived safe and sound! He is Gorgeous!!!!! And a bit timid in the beginning. I had him on my lap the first hours, waiting for all the administration that had to be done. He relaxed quickly, I could tell he was very impressed by everything he experienced. He loved his chicken with rice and carrot. In the car home he slept a lot and cuddled up to me, so cute. He is not so impressed by Joop, didn't lay down with his paws in the air, Joop is very enthousiastic as I expected and wants to play all the time. In the house they are still relatively quiet, don't know how long that will take:). Mees slept the whole night quietly in his crate next to my bed!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to send us again the greatest pup we could ever want, Big hug from Mees, Joop and all of us, Pia XXX= |
NINJA Arrives in Hong Kong to Sally and Family

Hi Beverley
I had to write to tell you something I know you already know, Ninja is a magnificent dog. Not only is he the handsomest creature to ever walk the earth, he is also the most intuitive, intelligent, calm, affectionate, companionable, gorgeous dog and we love him to bits. :) ha ha. In fact, everyone in my building loves him too. So much so we have already started talking about number two.
My husband who has never been “a dog person” is so in love, we are all having a private chuckle behind his back. Ninja has lots of dog friends (puppy and adult), lots of play and exercise and he is so social little kids are now knocking on our front door for a pat. The Vet is more than happy with him (4.7kg) and says he has great bone structure etc etc which I am sure you already know.
We do love him. We have mauled him and checked his ears, paws, tummy etc etc, bathed and showered him no problem! Thank you. When I pick him up he snuggles right in. He loves the crate but ‘with the door open’ so will have to work on that one as he has a lot to say about the door closed. He has already found ‘his’ spot at the end of the kitchen where he can see the living room one way and the whole kitchen the other way. And another remarkable thing, as I still have poor balance and have difficulty getting up from the floor etc (as a result of being paralysed for 3 months in hospital) he seemed concerned and came over licking. Once up, he was happy and smiling and standing at my feet. Could be my imagination .....
He rarely has accidents inside as we have a good system going – he barks at the kitchen gate for attention if we forget or rings the bell on the back door. He mostly wees on command now which is quite convenient. So far, he is doing: sit, down, come, fetch, drop, gentle, roll over, go to sleep, lets go and of course, NO.
This afternoon has been amazing. He is completely relaxed, had a couple of sleeps, playing in his special area with toys, smiling, obedient, even does sit, down with only a little encouragement, walking well on the lead. Potty has been good too. Ninja has been to the Vet for a check-up. We took him to the vet for his final vaccination on Thursday and the vet is very complimentary of his behaviour, stature, nature etc etc. He is eating a bone nearly every lunchtime and is eating well otherwise. It was worth the wait, Ninja is a beautifully balanced dog – he has added so much to all our lives and we thank you for that.
All the best for the Christmas season

We have only had 3 wee accidents and they were all on the first day. We are all in love. He has met so many people and is a real crowd pleaser. I am sure you will get a lot more enquiries as everyone keeps asking me where I got him from!
DOLLY Arrives to Ronald & Pam and family Perth Western Australia.
DOLLY at home in Perth
|
Hi Beverley,
We picked up Dolly yesterday afternoon, from Perth airport, safe and sound. We are most grateful for the bundle of joy that you have produced. Pam is over the moon and did not waste any time showing off Dolly to friends and relations. They were most impressed with how stable and friendly she was after her long flight. Dolly has an appointment with our vet, Dr Lamond on Friday. I believe you both met whilst in Perth on your last visit. We have used his services for at least 15 years. We will be sending photographs as and when they become available. Fond wishes, Pam & Rod |

Hi Beverley,
Dolly has made herself at home immediately. You can tell by the photos I have attached. We took Dolly to meet my daughters Labrador and she was soon chasing it around the yard! The vet gave Dolly a clean bill of health. A vaccination and a worm tablet were administered with no fuss. More photos soon Regards Rod & Pam W |

ELECTRA Arrives to Leonard & family Las Vegas
|
Dear Beverley and Helen, I picked Electra up at LAX and she was incredible. She was tentative at first but once she had time to move around a bit, became very playful. I took her on another plane to Las Vegas in a pet carry-on. She was so quiet that no one even knew she was in there.
I got her home and the family bonded with her right away. She is everything that was promised. Sweet, playful, smart and unbelievably at ease with people. She visited my office where no less than 15 people were around her and she didn’t shy away at all. When we hold her, she is still and content and when she is playing, she does it with a lot of energy and fun. I will keep you updated on her and send a few pics along the way. I think she will be a very happy dog. Leonard |
One Week Update
Beverley, we have had Electra for one week and she continues to amaze us. She is pretty much housebroken already. Whenever she wants to go, she runs to the front door, sits and waits.
She has shown that she is amazingly intelligent, calm and playful. We can’t thank you enough for bringing her into our family. Also, both my wife and son are very allergic to animals and have had absolutely no problems with her. I am attaching a few pictures for you.

LUNA ARRIVES HAPPY AND WELL IN FINLAND
Dear Beverley and Helen,
Luna arrived according to schedule yesterday. She was in perfect health and mood. We are VERY HAPPY.
She is everything we expected and more. You know her... she is curious, smart, friendly and beautiful. We all fell in love with her immediately. My mother who has been breeding cockerspaniels saw her today and she sent her regards to you:
It can clearly be seen that she has been accustomed to people and other dogs.
She said that you have done perfect job related to these issues. This is not "a usual kennel puppy" as she has received enough human attention and care at all stages.
Luna has been eating well, her stomach is working well and even the first night went without any problems. She is a happy puppy without a care in the world.
Luna is the most adorable, wise, beautiful, patient - and much more - puppy in the world! She has stolen our hearts forever :) She is such a quick learner - as my mother in law said: she is perfect and the only thing that could spoil her is us...
So far she has learned the boundaries of our yard and that she should prefer to go outside for a pee. Yesterday she met my brother's dog. She is around 11 months old toy poodle/pumi mixt breed and around the same size as Luna. They played very well and will be the best of friends. Luna has met veterinary already and had the worming again (as instructed).
We will keep on updating images gradually. She brought the festivity season with her, first the Easter, next weekend Labour day, then Mothers' day...
Best regards,
Mikko, Merja and the Girls. Finland

LUDWIG ARRIVES FULL OF PEP IN NORWAY
Hi Helen and Beverley
We have now come home a few hours ago. We had a 6 hour drive from the airport, with frequent stops for playing and stretching of feets. Ludwig was in terrific condition when we got him, we could hear him wagging his tail like a drumstick inside his crate when we carried him outside. When we took him out he leaped right into my lap, and was very playful and full of life immediately. He ate a good portion, and lapped some water, before we took a short walk, and got on our way. Well home he seems to settle very quickly, and he won't be missing playmates as his to legged brothers and sister are very eager. I'm sending some pictures attached to this mail. One from where we picked him up, and two from a pit stop. All pictures is with Axel. Thank you for our wonderful puppy. We have all fallen in love with him allready! Warm regards, Tor and family |

GEMMA'S FIRST WEEK HOME WITH GILLIAN MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA 2011
Little Gemma is living up to her name and is a real little gem:-)) She's an absolute delight and is certainly going to win Ziggy over completely as she grows. I can definitely see her bossing him around.
I made a little video of them playing tug of war last night. It's hilarious. He could easily swing her around the room but doesn't and when he wins the rope toy she's back in there for another go. He dangles it in front of her to give her a chance to get hold of it again and continue the game.
She's happily sleeping next to my bed in her own bed and takes herself off to the newspaper if she needs to during the night. Clever girl. She was eating very little for the past few days and I was getting a bit concerned, but this morning she attacked Ziggy's breakfast of sardines with gusto and ignored her own of chicken frame pieces. He happily swapped and I didn't argue.
Love from Gemma and one very happy doodle mum.
