Toula
Congrats to: Teresa and family from Plymouth, MI on this Black Bi-Color F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"Simply stated—she’s absolutely amazing! It’s incredible how quickly she’s adapted to her new surroundings. She does a wonderful job sitting, will lay down and come when called. She’s also doing a great job playing catch with us. She gets into her bed willingly and hasn’t cried once and from the second night home, she’s slept all night! Her vet appt went great and the dr and nurse immediately fell in love with this baby girl. She definitely gets puppy crazy time and has an affection for shoelaces and anything else we don’t want her to have haha We expend her energy by playing fetch and working with her on walking with a leash on. We also have several treat puzzles that she loves. She’s also mesmerized by the tv and will sit quietly and watch for several minutes. We couldn’t be more happy with this sweet girl and are so thankful that Awesome Doodle and Shannon gave her such a wonderful start." "We thought you might want an update on how very much this girl has enriched our lives. Toula is one of the smartest sweetest babies we’ve ever met. She loves everyone and has many many friends. We’ve retired and moved to Tennessee where Toula has a huge fenced yard, lots of wildlife to watch, and has embraced boating! She loves to take walks and still goes to daycare one day per week as she is very social. Her vocabulary has increased dramatically and she follows commands easily. She definitely has a sixth sense and can tell if someone is upset or ill and will stay by that person’s side, kissing them the whole time! We just wanted to say thank you for your wonderful program and for giving this sweet babe such a perfect start. Know that she is in good hands and is loved completely."
Mabry
Congrats to: Joseph and Olivia from Atalanta on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
Mabry is 11 weeks and doing great. She has sit, watch me, leave it, down and come. She struggles with stay but can do it sometimes. She just had a bath and did great! She surprises us every week with a new thing she’s curious about and getting in to. We’re having a great time with her! Thanks for the articles! - Joseph
Binkley
Congrats to: Max and family from Los Angeles, CA on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Binkley has been home for a little more than 24 hours now. She is unbelievably sweet and smart and brave even when being sniffed inquisitively by a cat four times her size. She was offering calm behaviors (for chicken treats) right out of the gate and slept in her crate almost seven hours straight the first night. Hopefully we’ll be lucky again on the second. Thank you to the wonderful folks at AwesomeDoodle for raising such great pups."
Juliette (Jules)
Congrats to: Dorothy and family from Aliso Viejo, California on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Juliette (Jules) is doing so great! She is growing so fast. The vet says that she will be 40+ lbs which is great. We thought she would be around 25-30 due to her small size compared to her litter mates. She is incredibly intelligent and is doing very well with “Sit, Stay, Here, Come, and Leave It” as well as Leash training. We have been reminding her that barking is not allowed. She loves to jump so we are working on reminding her not to jump up on people. She is such a love and snuggler! Please let Natalie know that she is doing great!"
Buster
Congrats to: David and Robin and family from Centennial, CO on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Welcome to our home sweet little Buster. He is so smart. He came potty trained! Thank you Dana for your special care."
Cooper
Congrats to: Samantha and family from Trumbull, CT on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Cooper is doing great with his commands! He is crazy smart and will do just about anything for his chicken treats lol. He definitely tests us with his crazy puppy time though. Lately if we tell him “off” or “no” or “leave it” when he’s biting on something he’s not supposed to he goes ballistic and growls/barks and bites at us. We know it’s not forever but those sharp little teeth sure do hurt! But he is such a love and truly a good boy when he’s not acting like a maniac. We couldn’t be more thankful to Natalie and Kris for the wonderful work they did from the get go with him!"
Massimo
Congrats to: Lexi and family from Chicago, IL on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Just wanted to share a Massimo pupdate :) He's been doing great! It was hard to get adjusted the first couple of weeks, but now we feel like he's been a part of our family for much longer than (almost) 3 months! We love him so much and so do his grand-pawrents haha! He plays well with everyone! Including children and other dogs, which is super important to us coming from a large family. His Likes: Cuddling with his snuggle puppy Running along Lake Michigan Watching TV - March Madness, Dogs 101, Say Yes to the Dress, and Crazy Rich Asians are some of his favorites Getting his chin pet after a long day of exercise Playing fetch and soccer Playing with his other doggy friends, Luca and Jasper! His Dislikes: The blow dryer Hot temperatures Going to the groomers When we leave him alone :( We're currently enrolled in training courses, but he can make eye contact, give paw, sit, stay, wait calmly for food, go to his crate when instructed, and he's fully potty trained! Thank you for all your help!"
Cody
Congrats to: Kathy and family from DeKalb, Illinois on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Cody is 7 months old and is the smartest most loving dog I have ever owned! He has sailed through puppy and advanced puppy class and is now working on Canine Good Citizen! We are hoping to take him all the way to become a therapy dog!"
Twix
Congrats to: Wendy and family from Humble, Texas on this Black Phantom F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"Twix Thunderpaw is the cutest little busybody around. He is learning how to walk on a leash without tripping us left and right....definitely a work in progress ? but he’s mastered sit, down, and shake. Smart little guy (Thank you Martha❣️)"
Willow
Congrats to: Seve and family from Fort Worth, TX on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We love our little Willow, she's great. - She loves rope toys and playing fetch. She also enjoys going on walks/hikes and travelling. She loves playing with other dogs and meeting people! The vet called her one of the most well behaved dogs he's ever worked with. - She does not like greenies or going potty with the sprinklers on haha. - We take her almost everywhere with us. We love going out for food and drinks at restaurants and breweries with patios and she enjoys watching other people and dogs and getting loved on by anyone who passes by. - She learns commands very quickly but she is also stubborn so she will stare us in the eyes and disobey when she feels like it. But she's too cute to get angry at! - She works well with commands but we are working on backyard barking and pulling on the leash but other than that, she does great. She started sleeping through the whole night the second night we had her! We will find some videos to send but her instagram is @_willow.doodle. Thank you so much for being there for us!!"
Ellie
Congrats to: Tony and family from Brunswick, Ohio on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We welcomed home little Ellie today. She is everything we had hoped for ? and Dana did an amazing job with these pups."
Sparky Miguel
Congrats to: Paola and family from Ypsilanti , Michigan on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Sparky is doing great! He is pretty good at sit, stay and focus (eye contact), he’s also loving his crate and learning how to ring a bell for potty breaks ❤️, he is so smart! We are doing online training and so far so good, still trying to teach him some leash skills that’s what he struggles the most but we are on it!"
Okra
Congrats to: Emily and family from Washington, DC on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We picked up Okra one week ago today and he has absolutely stolen our hearts. The pickup process was so smooth and easy, and Okra slept in our laps or calmly watched the road the whole 8-hour drive home. He’s already learned “sit,” “down,” “drop it,” and his name, sleeps in his crate through the night without issue, and has never had an accident in the house. We are still in a bit of shock at what a smart and eager-to-please pup he is! Thank you so much to Morgan and Diane for raising such amazing puppies and to AwesomeDoodle for making sure the whole process was seamless, and for sending all of the helpful training articles and videos. These are such smart dogs!" - Emily
Hendricks
Congrats to: Sara and family from Huntington Beach, California on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Hendricks(kindle x rocket) at 4 months! 1. He loves his swim class, playing fetch on the beach and CHICKEN. 2. He does not like to get into the ocean ... yet.. his harness.. but loves walks 3. We take him to puppy preschool every weekend and puppy play dates throughout the week. 4. He rings bells to go outside, he is really good walking off leash already & he is top of his class for puppy school!"
Snickers
Congrats to: Tyera and family from Baltimore, MD on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Snickers is BRILLIANT! At 21 weeks, he is already house broken. He knows how to tell me that he wants to go outside, he wakes me up at the same time each morning (give or take a few minutes) by hitting me with his paws, and also knows to use the pee pad if I don't get him outside on time. Snickers is crate trained but can also be left alone in the house for a couple of hours at a time. He knows where is toy box is and where he is allowed to sleep. Snickers does know some basic commands like "sit", "stay", and "wait". He is also making good progress with the "heel" command when walking."
Tango
Congrats to: Kreg and family from Belleair Beach, FL on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"It’s been a while, but I wanted to acknowledge the incredible experience we had with your Awesome Doodle team and the fabulous care and environment Nancy provided the litter that gave us Tango. He is an amazing puppy and has become a vital part of our family. Thank you for all you do!"
Daisy
Congrats to: Julie and family from Huntsville, AL on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Daisy is a bit over 1.5 years old now. She is 10.5 lbs and full of joy. She continues to love training and learning new ways to impress us. Daisy goes everywhere with us to include planes, boats and trains. She is an expert travel companion and taking her on our adventures has been so much fun. Thank you AwesomeDoodle for being a careful, caring, nurturing and all around excellent breeder that puts the pups first. Daisy’s start to life was positive and carefully considered!"
Maple
Congrats to: Dan and family from Chagrin Falls, Ohio, OH on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Maple is a playful and rambunctious little gal! She loves playing and snuggling with her brother Miso."
Miss North Dakota USA, gets an AwesomeDoodle
Congrats to: Congratulations Jaci and her Husband Kolt on this Blue Merle w/White puppy.
"The reason I chose AwesomeDoodle for my new little AussieDoodle puppy wasn't just because they have pretty puppies. In fact, when I signed up, my puppy wasn't even born yet. I chose AwesomeDoodle after I studied their website, and saw how much time and energy they put into their puppies. AwesomeDoodle offers a unique experience, allowing you to know exactly how and where you puppy is being raised. I valued having a relationship with the people raising my puppy. Not only did I get that, I got to SEE my puppy being raised, and bond with my aussiedoodle before I even met it; I watched him every day on the puppy cam. I saw everything. I saw Tom, Diane, & Morgan getting in the puppy box - petting him and loving on him. I saw how he played with his litter mates. I felt like I knew him so entirely before I even held him or brought him home. There's no other breeder doing anything like this. We're hooked."
Lincoln
Congrats to: Elizabeth and family from Manhattan, New York on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We hope you’re well! We just wanted to say thank you and update you that Lincoln is doing great! He is such a sweet and calm little love, with of course healthy bursts of fun and adorable puppy play. We can absolutely see that he was very well taught to keep all four paws on the ground, to be calm around kiddos and all people, and to potty outside or in the litter box, although he definitely prefers outside. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
Oliver
Congrats to: Amanda and family from Falmouth, MA on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Oliver is growing up fast! He’s a ball of fluff, fun and love! I/we couldn’t be happier. He’s 15 weeks old, ~14 lbs"
Ziggy
Congrats to: Paola and family from New York, New York on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I’ve had Ziggy now for about 6 weeks and he’s truly a gem! Getting him was the best decision I’ve made. Ziggy was crate trained by day 4, potty trained within a week and he can now sit, go down, give his paw, high five, leave it and stay for about 12 seconds. With your guidance, he’s really become such a well mannered pup and will be starting puppy development classes when he’s done with all his shots. Ziggy is so smart and so loving. He’s got such personality and he just makes the days so much brighter for my family and friends."
Maverick
Congrats to: Matthew from Arlington, VA on this Blue Merle w/White F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"My Maverick is ~13.5lbs and handsome as ever. It has not even been a year since I got to take him home, but it feels like it has been forever. I 100% believe part of this is the time I spent watching him and his littermates grow from 2-9 weeks. I cannot thank you and your team enough for the AwesomeDoodle process. Special thanks to Maverick's mom's human mom, Nancy. I told her that I promised to continue to nurture and grow the love that she instilled in them their first few weeks of life. I like to think I have kept that promise. Thank you again for everything."
Cosmo
Congrats to: Stephanie and family from Seattle, WA on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Cosmo is doing great! He has quickly learned to sit, up, stand, down, leave it and watch! We are amazed at how fast he is learning."
JakJak
Congrats to: Tracy and family from Kiowa, CO on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"He might be the smartest puppy ever ? you might think I’m biased but I’ve barely had to work with this guy or teach him things…he just gets it almost right away…sometimes I think he speaks English because he just knows what I say. So far he’s mastered in any environment and with the other dogs here, sit, down, enough, go potty, eat your own (food), get a toy, off (except the dishwasher), give it (unless it’s food), he plays fetch if the other two aren’t around so he does – ready – go get it – bring it here – give it really well, and gentle…the other day he bit on me a little hard and I said gentle and he just held my hand in his mouth super soft and looked at me. We’re still working on leave it…he’s great at it unless he just decides to ignore you a little and then you may have to go help…it will come with time and look is mediocre but we really just need to work on it more and I say “leash” when we put collars and leashes on…sometimes he’s good and sometimes he can’t not try to bite it. he’s great at wait at the house door but we struggle at the gates and at my husbands work he did when I had to go out the door but he barked at me a couple times to say he wasn’t happy about it ? He's really just about the best little guy we could have asked for…he’s just calm and mellow, he plays great with the other two…if he’s not with them he’s super happy to play on his own with toys, he loves when you pet him or give him attention but if you don’t that’s fine too! He barely jumps on anyone, he lines up for treats with he other dogs and waits his turn (unless it’s a sardine…then he’s not polite…but it’s improving). He’s just a super easy guy and just happy almost all the time! We totally love him and enjoy having him…I’m sure some things will pop up along the way but if the first 2 months are any indication working through them will be a breeze with this guy! If we had him first I’d probably get 5 more!! Just joking…I’m pretty sure we are done! Our clan is all happy, mostly very nicely trained, and they all enjoy playing together really nicely and have so much fun!! He loves his big brother and sister but I love that he’s super independent too and doesn’t need them for support. Enzo and Lexi both do well apart too except that Lexi gets bored and needs attention if the other two aren’t around, but outside of that we’re super happy with our AwesomeDoodle clan!! Individually they are all almost perfect..all together in public a little less but not horrible…our goal this summer is to fix that!! I wouldn’t trade them for anything!! And when we go out I almost always have someone ask where we got our puppies and write down your website…so hopefully some other puppies can find super nice homes!"
McCloud
Congrats to: Shauna and family from Brookline, MA on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We are so in love with McCloud. We’re so impressed with him! He is so well trained for his age and knows to use a pee pad when indoors. He’s so smart, I can’t believe it! He’s also doing so well at home adjusting and didn’t even cry in the crate last night at all!"
River MKC
Congrats to: Kimberly and family from Noblesville, IN on this Blue Merle w/White F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"AwesomeDoodle changed the way I view the process of having an adorable new baby join my family. AwesomeDoodle dotted all the I’s and crossed all the T’s with every step of the way being a meticulous journey. The entire experience was stellar and allowed me to bond to my new baby before ever bringing him home. The 24/7 customer service and webcam put my mind at ease as I anxiously waited for my turn to have him in my arms. The personalized weekly photos and videos from my reputable breeder permitted me to see his transformation and growth. I was also thrilled that AwesomeDoodle promoted and established training and care after I pick up my baby. The entire experience was outstanding and one that reassured me that I made the right decision. Thank you for the gift of my baby River, he is the love of my life."
Nauset
Congrats to: Emily and family from Collegeville, PA on this Chocolate Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"First off, thank you for making the process of getting a puppy (a first for our family—we have never had a dog) so enjoyable. Second, the guides and videos, suggestions of toys/treats/crates were invaluable. And lastly, thank you for giving us the missing piece to our family puzzle. My husband and I have one daughter, now 9. We fell into our routine and were very happy just being the “three musketeers”. It’s a hard transition to go from your uninterrupted daily schedule of 3 to having a puppy (aka newborn). But we literally can’t imagine what life without her would be like. She’s SUCH A GOOD DOG!!!!! We stuck to all your advice and training and everyone says she’s a polite puppy with a BIG personality. Nauset does her commands flawlessly (sit, stay, “more”—taps our knee with nose instead of jumping for food)—unless she’s mad about something then she acts a tad sassy which is still cute?. But she loves us too much to hold onto it. She is absolutely gorgeous—we get stopped daily and asked where we got her and always point them in your direction. Most of all, Nauset knows we are her people and she is our family—we would do anything for her. We love her so much and she shows us love everyday. My daughter got her fur sister and Nauset has completed our family without a doubt."
Blue
Congrats to: Azalea and family from Palmetto Bay, FL on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Thank you so much for all the tips & info.. it has helped so much. We truly appreciate it and AwesomeDoodle is absolutely amazing. I already told the fam “we should think of getting another one” lol Blue is doing amazing, he is growing by the day!! A little out of hand with the barking but thanks to the Facebook group I've gotten great advice that seems to be working. Your pups are amazing..so smart too!"
Scarlett
Congrats to: Patricia from Oakwood, OH on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Scarlett is 8 months old and is wonderful - awesome actually. She's sweet and spunky and loves meeting people and especially kids. Our daily trip to the local dog park is the highlight of the day and helps wear this puppy out. She goes to daycare one day a week while I'm still working from home. She can't wait to get out of the car when we get there. She can barely keep her eyes open on the drive home. Thanks! I refer to the website often and appreciate all the information there."
Lexi
Congrats to: Tracy and family from Kiowa, Co on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"We’ve had our Aussiedoodle now for 3 ½ weeks and she is super sweet, fun and smart. We finally had good success with potty training by the 3rd week, she’s 100% outside or in the litter box if we aren’t quick enough. Lexi thinks everything in life should be approached with eagerness and excitement. She has mastered sit, look, leash, let’s go, go to bed, her name and here even under distraction and off leash almost 100%. She’s still working on not jumping, she gets a little over excited sometimes and just can’t quite help herself yet, but it only takes a little ignoring before she is sitting politely. She does bark and ask for a treat though if you take too long when she thinks she deserves it! She’s had her first haircut and did really well with everything, she loves the blowdryer and bites the air when it hits her face! She’s happy to go get a toy and play by herself while we are doing things around the house…she throws it around and chases it by herself. She’s great at her crate, she puts herself in bed at night without a peep about 9pm, she has a small playpen with litter box and 2 toys in her crate and we don’t hear from her until we get up around 6, she’s always laying in her bed when we get up so not sure how long she would actually stay in there. She’s happy to stay in her crate patiently when I need to go outside for a bit or take the other dogs out, she does very well. She’s very sweet, well-adjusted and even at her most excited moment you can still get her attention about 98% of the time and help her be productive. We’ve had so much fun with her, she’s just a little bundle of happy."
Mowgli
Congrats to: Annie and family from Wantagh, NY on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"First week in the books with Mowgli!! He’s such a smart, fun, cuddly little man. Feeling so lucky to have him, especially during these times❣️" - Annie
Earl
Congrats to: Barbara and family from Ponte Vedra, FL on this Apricot Bi-Color F1b BerneDoodle puppy.
"We took him in for a check up and he’s perfectly healthy. The vet was also impressed with his amazing temperament and sweet nature. ❤️ Thank you for raising such a happy healthy awesome doodle!! ?"
Sadie
Congrats to: Kelley and family from Parker, CO on this Blue Merle w/White F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Sweet Sadie has been an amazing addition to our family. She loves to go for motorcycle rides, meet new people and never be too far from her humans. Even after getting injured while she was very young in a meet and greet with some other dogs, she is fearless and loves everyone she meets."
Greta
Congrats to: Katie and family from Spicewood, Texas on this Black Tri-Color F1b BerneDoodle puppy.
"We are so happy with Greta and are so glad to have this crazy loving girl as part of our family!"
Moku
Congrats to: Brett and family from Mountainside, New Jersey on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"On our 10 hour drive back from Kentucky to pick up Moku we can already tell this guy is going to be a ball of light and happiness in our lives for a very long time. Words can’t even begin to express our gratitude towards AwesomeDoodle and especially Diane and Morgan who played such a HUGE role in shaping Moku into the young lad he is today. The boy is 5/5 for pees on the pad and has been an absolute treat in the back seat with Elana and I switching play buddy roles the whole time to NJ. Could not be happier and for anyone waiting...it’s worth it." - Brett
Indie
Congrats to: Amanda and family from Middletown, CT on this Black Tri-Color F1 BerneDoodle puppy.
"Indie is very smart. She is goofy. Indie is calm and loving. She is great with children and other dogs."
Finley (Finn for short!)
Congrats to: Lori and family from Sea Bright, New Jersey on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I just wanted to send along a note letting you know that we literally have the BEST dog on the planet!! No joke - I feel like we won the lottery with Finn. He’s beyond kind, playful, loving, smart. The perfect mix of everything!! Every time we go away (twice now), the whole trip is about how much we miss Finn!! Anyhow, thought this might brighten your Monday. You guys run a great business and I thought you should know!"
Tessa
Congrats to: Paula and family from Noblesville, IN on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Just wanted to let you know Tessa is amazing…. 25 pounds of sweetness. Well behaved, gentle, loves any age people and dogs. Easy to train. Silly and goofy… We can’t write enough of what joy she had brought to us. We would recommend Darla puppies and AwesomeDoodle with confidence."
Rocky
Congrats to: Alexa and family from Indianapolis, IN on this Phantom Blue Merle F1b BerneDoodle puppy.
"Rocky has been doing great! He loves chew toys, blankets, cuddles, and treats. He’s even sleeping in his crate better at night. The only thing he dislikes is a mixer, but I’m sure he’ll warm up to it the more I bake. Rocky has been a pro at using the litter box and with behavior shaping. He’s also good at warming up to new things (i.e. grooming, car rides, walks). Can’t thank AwesomeDoodle enough for giving me my best friend and being an excellent resource!"
Joey Drew
Congrats to: Louise and family from Washington, Virginia on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Joey Drew is the most amazing dog I have ever had or trained. I have no issues with crazy time or biting. He has lots of chew toys! He wrestles with the cat in the morning and the evening. He plays hard with his two Rhodesian Ridgeback siblings who are very gentle with him. He always comes, and sits, lies down, stays, knows “off” and “no” and we are working on roll over. and shake. He starts with an in-home trainer next week. He loves his crate - has been amazing with his potty training (there is a litter box and a potty pad in two showers in the house - and he always remembers to go there). He sleeps in my bedroom and has not had one “accident” We wake up every few hours to use the shower potty. He is very polite with his food (sitting quietly and waiting until I put the bowl down) and really good with the other animals’ food - and never tries to get into their bowls. Great with strangers and children too! Even my one year old grandson - he never jumps on anyone no matter how excited he is. He is not fond of grooming - but I am hoping the trainer will help me with that. I am very grateful to Awesome Doodles - best breeder training I have ever come across - My puppy was so well prepared for life! And I think he will be the puppy love of my life."
Zuko (Zuzu)
Congrats to: Brooklynn and family from Tulsa, OK on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I thought I'd send a little update because we are very proud of our little Zuko! He is sleeping peacefully through the night, mostly only pottying outside, and has learned his name, Sit, Wait, Come, Down, and is currently learning how to sit and wait at doors instead of bolting out ahead of us. He's also been to Lowe's and Pet Smart a few times and has had a few playdates with other dogs. Thank you for all the helpful resources, we've learned so much from your videos and articles! I just wanted to send an update! We love AwesomeDoodle and already recommend adopting dogs through y'all to everyone we know, haha!"
Angel
Congrats to: Kathryn and family from Parkland, FL on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We chose the name Sparkle before our puppy arrived. When we realized how sweet she is, we renamed her Angel. This being our first pup, it is hard to believe how sweet and well behaved she is. She truly is our little Angel. We are grateful for the joy that Angel inspires in us and in everyone she meets. The VIP information on the Awesome Doodle site has been a big help with bringing Angel into our home, and in training us how to be Angel's people. Many thanks to the Awesome Doodle Family!"
Barley
Congrats to: Haley and family from Windham, NH on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Barley has been great! She already knows sit, down, roll, spin and handshake and has been loving her puppy school! She has moved from puppy preschool to puppy kindergarten and is working on leave-it and loose lease walk now. She loves playing fetch with her balls, and we are staring to introduce a frisbee which she also loves. She is still picky with eating her kibble, but the vet says her weight is okay. Otherwise, she has really been the perfect puppy!"
Adley
Congrats to: Patricia and family from Brunswick, MD on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Thank you so much for the continued support and information! Adley is doing so well and starting puppy classes tomorrow! We have been thrilled with how sweet he is and how quickly he adjusted to the routines of our home! It will be fun to introduce him to some new puppies and continue learning basic training techniques! We have been keeping up with you training suggestions as well, which has been a huge help! Thank you again for helping us bring this perfect addition into our home! We are grateful!
Pebbles
Congrats to: Ron and family from Fort Wayne, Indiana on this Blue Merle w/White F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Pebbles is just over 20 pounds at 16 weeks. Hopefully, the rate of weight gain slows and she ends in that 35 to 45 pound range. She is now sleeping later, 9 to 7 as opposed to 9 to 4 or 5. She has been excellent in her nighttime crate, with any accidents from day one! She understands poops go outside, occasionally in the pine pellet tray, but peeing in the house is still a problem (luckily we have hard surface flooring and not carpet). We occasionally put her in her daytime crate and go out for short periods and she does great and just quietly naps. She likes to chew on a small squeaky toy. Sometimes we’ll throw it and she has learned to bring it back and drop it for a treat. Another favorite is knocking around an empty 1 litter soda bottle. She’ll run into it a bump it around, trying and trying to get ahold of it. For socialization we often bring her to several of the stores that are pet friendly. We get her together occasionally with dogs we know. We are also looking forward for her 4th shot next week so we can broaden exposure. She is very smart and picks up on things like sitting and waiting. Except when she’s overly excited or has the zoomies. We have two food puzzle games that she likes. She also has a ball that treats drop out of that didn’t take long for her to figure out about rolling it around."
Beppo
Congrats to: Christine and family from Belfast, ME on this Black Phantom BerneDoodle F1 BerneDoodle puppy.
"Beppo is doing so great. Some of his favorite things: sticks, the first moment when he sees me in the morning, hikes with the family, laying outside on the back deck or in the yard. Dislikes: doesn’t have many! He’s so happy go lucky! He does sometimes barf in the car, but it’s not a big deal. Socializing: Beppo comes with us wherever we go, he’s just part of the family. He is so well adjusted that when we had our fire alarm system go off at 1am, he didn’t bark, howl or act scared. He’s happy to meet other dogs, people, etc. And he finally doesn’t whine in the car! How he’s smart: Beppo is just so intuitive. He knows when he’s done something we aren’t happy about, like chew on the baseboards, and usually comes right over and sits down almost like an apology. That said, he’s almost 100% potty trained, and has had only one accident this week. He likes to be “off leash” in the yard, which he was trying to tell me by carrying his leash in his mouth. At first I thought he was just teething or being obnoxious, but when I let the leash down, he started trotting proudly beside me, head held high. I was curious and walked away from him, turned around, called him to come, and he came flying back to me, leash in mouth, did a lap around me and sat down for a treat. It’s now a game of recall that we play together. He sits, lies down, stays, does look at me, is getting so good at leave it, and we can’t wait to teach him more in his upcoming training classes. We will try to shoot a video of his awesomeness soon! I can’t say thank you enough for this wonderful creature. He has brought such joy to our family!"
Georgie
Congrats to: Tim and family from St Paul, MN on this Apricot Bi-Color F1b BerneDoodle puppy.
"Georgie is weighing in at about 8.75 lbs (almost 14 weeks old), and is so darn smart! He is learning things so quickly...not all of these things are good things, but it has been pretty easy to redirect his attention to more positive behaviors. We just love this little fur ball so much!"
Sestra
Congrats to: Kim and family from High View, WV on this Black Tuxedo F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"It's hard to believe we've had Sestra for 9 weeks already. It's been a lot of fun watching the dynamic between her and Hemi and they've fast become the best of buds. It's been amazing getting a second AwesomeDoodle. The challenges I had with Hemi are virtually non-existent with Sestra, and I give Hemi all of the credit for that as he is the one that takes the brunt of Sestra's puppy crazy time and incessant biting. Hemi has been a real trooper and because he's the one to burn off her energy, she's quite the lovable, calm, snuggle bug with us. It's been absolutely great. Her training has gone extremely well and I'm still shocked at how well she listens for a 4 month old puppy. I attribute this to Hemi as he seems to have taught her the cues to the behaviors we're expecting. She has a fantastic "sit" and "down", a very strong "leave it", "stay" and "release" and a pretty good "come" (excellent without distractions, and pretty decent when outdoors with distractions). She understands and complies with "off" and "enough" (used to calm her when she becomes exceptionally rowdy with Hemi) and is spectacular with our "no bite" command which has prevented many holes in us, Hemi, and our blankets! She's been taught to ring bells to both go out and to come back in and she's been consistently utilizing them for several weeks now. She's only met a few other dogs so far and was a little timid with my sister's humongous 100+ pound golden retriever and incredibly tall and rambunctious mixed breed shepherd, but after her initial reluctance, she was accepting, if not fully appreciative, of their attention. She absolutely loves people and her little tail starts wagging when she sees people even at a distance. She's a wonderful traveler and has adapted fabulously to traveling and living in our camper. She rides on our ATV with us and did absolutely great on a recent trip to an ATV park; she wasn't scared at all of the noise and commotion and would just wag her tail when other people rode by. She has developed a respectful relationship with my chickens and is able to mingle with them while they're free ranging. Stuart the Rooster has accepted her into his flock and she has a healthy understanding of which hens prefer she stays further away so she wisely keeps her distance from them. :) We couldn't be happier with her and we're so glad we decided to get a second AD. She has a great personality, she's a nice size, she's been a wonderful friend for Hemi, and a lovable and attentive companion for us. We love her to death and pray she lives a super long and healthy life with us and her big brother, Hemi Doodle. I also wanted to let you know that our second experience with AwesomeDoodle was even better than the first (this time we got to watch the puppy cam!!) so thank you for being a wonderful resource and a great breeder. A special thanks to Michelle and Mark who we have no doubt influenced the snuggly personality and foundational training for Sestra. You guys rock!"
