Hopper
Congrats to: Shae and family from Shawnee, Oklahoma on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I just wanted to update you to tell you Hopper is the best dog for our family! He is fun, adventurous, active, cuddly, a lil ornery, but so so happy. He goes off to training in two weeks to start the process of becoming a therapy dog so he can come to work with me (I’m an LPC, LMFT). He enjoys car rides, trips to lowes, playing with kids, other dogs, kayaking, and even in water. I just wanted to share that he is the perfect fit for [us]."
Valentino
Congrats to: Rhonda and family from Medford, MA on this Apricot Bi-Color F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"Valentino and we are doing great! We love him so much and are amazed at how well he is learning. We can’t imagine our home before he arrived!"
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."
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!"
Blaze
Congrats to: Patricia and family from Dallas, TX on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Blaze is an Awesome Doodle. Probably 22 people in the last 2 days stopped us and asked where she is from, and I said Awesome Doodle from Michigan! She picked an old purse of mine from when I lived in California. She has her leash, her baby and her chewy rope and blankie in there…she hops in and barks at me…that means she wants to go ridin’ in the car. If I do not respond quickly she will get the leash and pull it out of her purse and run around until she has my undivided attention. She is hilarious!!! Shannon, thank you for this precious angel!!!"
Bali
Congrats to: Frances and family from Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico on this Blue Merle w/ White & Copper F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Bali is doing great! Crazy time has been minimum, we have a 11 yr old Westie and they love each other, she is obsessed with him LOL. She learns super quick, anything you teach she will learn the first time right away. She is now about 6.5lbs, still wondering how big will she get. She has truly brought tons of joy to our home, she is super loving and such a good girl! She just got her 3rd round of vaccines so hoping to start training classes soon."
Koda
Congrats to: Lindsey and family from Alpharetta, GA on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"As we approach miss Koda’s 1st birthday, we wanted to give you an update on our beautiful pup and thank you for the experience! Koda is definitely the smartest dog I’ve ever met. She’s cuddly and sweet. She absolutely loves to be outside and loves walks/runs. She’s a very curious girl, even her normal walk/run routes provide ample opportunity for new adventures. She loves chasing birds and is hopeful one day she’ll find a way to get one. Koda loves her family and is so patient even with her two youngest human brothers who love to play chase with her. I honestly couldn’t have hoped for a better dog. She’s still on the smaller side, but she’s grown well over the past year. Despite looking smaller, she can jump incredible heights. She goes to doggy day care once a week and they all laugh at how she jumps over all the barrier walls to get where she wants to be. She even flips when she jumps sometimes, which amazes us. She was so easy to house train and so easy to love. Koda and the cat still aren’t best friends, though everyday Koda tries her best to win the cat over! We are so happy she is part of our family!"
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."
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!"
Oscar
Congrats to: Lázaro and family from Juncos, Puerto Rico on this Black Tri-Color F1 BerneDoodle puppy.
Oscar is behaving 70% to what our goal is, he stays when commanded for long periods of time, bitting is almost none, walking with leash is almost perfect, he understands down and reacts immediately as same as no, boundaries we have for him are about 80% followed, no fences. With food change we had no problem and he is SUPER with my two kids, tender and lovable. WE LOVE OSCAR !
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."
Otto
Congrats to: Bill in Colorado on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
Eight Weeks Old. So so good. Otto is so sweet and so smart. Mostly you can tell he already knows a lot of the basics. We drove back 16 hours from picking him up and got home last night. Night one was in my camper so we just let our hair down to get through the drive and that first night in the camper. Already using the litter box like a champ. So impressed with that. Dealing with a 2 hour time change for him so our hours were a little off but he went about 6 1/2 hours in his crate last night. Crashed hard, went right in there and out cold, woke up 45 minutes later so I took him out. Put him back in the crate and he wasn’t too happy about it. Cried for about, oh maybe 5 or 7 minutes, then slept for 6 hours without a peep. Amazing. I picked him up on Friday and it was a 16 hour drive back here, and today is Easter Sunday, so his first vet visit is tomorrow. Everything else is pretty much like you describe below. We will keep watching the videos and working with Otto. - Bill
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!"
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
Izzy-Bella
Congrats to: Marilyn and family from Columbia, TN on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We picked up our puppy yesterday. She has had an easy transition to our home. Put her in the kennel last night. Nancy played classical rest music at night, so we played the same thing. Within five minutes, she calmed and went to sleep. Took her to the vet and pet store today. Everyone she meets says she is beautiful. They also comment on how sweet and laidback her personality is. No accidents so far. The only time she didn’t get outside was my fault, so she used the litter box. What an Awesome Doodle. Thank you to everyone who helped us with getting Bella. Even when I was crazy puppy mama-to-be you were very helpful. I want to especially thank Nancy as she did a great job raising these puppies."
Enzo
Congrats to: Heidi and family from Brookings, Oregon on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Enzo is doing great! My three year old cockapoo is getting more exercise than ever! Enzo is learning sit and come. He has work to do with coming when called. He is sweet and learning good manners! He loves to chase and play with my older dog. He is a joy!!"
Teagan
Congrats to: Tara and family from Renton, WA on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Teagan is a sassy, fluffy ball of energy."
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."
Miso
Congrats to: Alex and family from Chagrin Falls, Ohio, OH on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Miso is an adventure loving pup! He loves to explore the outdoors any chance he can get!"
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!"
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."
Blue
Congrats to: Sophia and Family from New York City, NY on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I wanted to send you guys another small update on our sweet boy Blue aka Roku! He’s doing so well and has gotten huge! He is now 37 pounds and has a ton of hair. He loves doing tricks and was so easy to train, he is now fully trained. My personal favorite trick he does is “bang” or play dead. It’s so sweet when he rolls over and lies down. He loves playing fetch and chasing after a stick or ball or really anything thrown away from him. He’s a big fan of the ocean but not so much the pool. When we bring him to the beach he runs straight for the water and splashes around. He’s also very much a city dog and loves exploring the streets of New York City. His best friend is actually a Great Dane puppy who lives next door to us and they can play for hours on end. Blue is such a cuddly puppy and loves to roll onto his back and receive rubs. He also loves being brushed and always gets excited when I take out his hair brush. He loves treats, especially beaf and for some reason also adores receiving a cube of ice. He will try to bite at it and usually it will roll on the ground which he will then chase after it until he manages to get a hold of it. He’s an amazing dog and we are so grateful to you guys. He also has an Instagram if you ever want more photo updates on how he’s doing! It’s called blue_boy_the_aussiedoodle."
Luca
Congrats to: Doug and family from Jersey City, NJ on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Luca is incredible! She is smart, loyal and hasn’t met another dog or person she hasn’t loved being around. She is playful and surprisingly obedient when we need her to be. We are so happy that Luca is in our lives and we are still excited to continue to shape her into a wonderful full grown AussieDoodle. Here’s to 8 months… Happy new year!!"
Sgt Pepper
Congrats to: Leslie and family from Saint Petersburg, FL on this Black Phantom F1b AussieDoodle puppy.
"I had a great experience with Awesome Doodle and with Martha. I think it's great how this website can connect you to family breeders around the country who you know are going to provide a loving childhood home for the puppies to grow up in during some of the most pivotable weeks of their lives. I loved being able to see my puppy in the web cam and had it open as often as I could. My coworkers and I would watch it at work, trying to figure out which puppy was mine. By the time I went to pick up my puppy, I knew all the dogs by name. Sgt Pepper loves people more than anything, and she loves to cuddle. She was timid at first, but has become brave. We go swimming at the beach, kayaking, and playing at the park. She has beautiful copper markings that are getting more visible as she gets older. She weighs around 20 pounds and has gotten nice long poodle legs. She is full of personality and life. She is such a great dog and worth the wait."
Kenai
Congrats to: Beth & Don and family from Parkton, MD on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"I just wanted to share a quick update on Kenai. This is our 3rd awesomedoodle. Kenai, is an amazing pup. I am really shocked and super happy with his personality. He is really laid back, which our other 2 never were. He settles down very easily (except during puppy crazy time) and has slept in his crate with very little crying since we got him. He is afraid of our other dogs a bit, but, slowly that is getting better. He has hardly had an accident in the house. I just felt like I wanted to write because we have other dogs to compare him to and he seems extra special. I really hope people adopt the rest of the pups in the litter soon as they are in for a real treat. We just love him to pieces. Hats off to Christie and her family for molding him into a great puppy."
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!"
Izzo
Congrats to: Chelsea and family from Chicago, IL on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We love our Izzo so much! We couldn’t be happier with AwesomeDoodle and their transparency, communication and organization. We picked him up at 7 weeks and he already had great eye contact and was very good at sitting. He quickly learned how to lay down and roll over. We crate trained him and he was very easy to potty train. He is very loving and food motivated. Still working on extended stay and leaving sticks and things we don’t want him to pick up. He is now 18 weeks old and 16 pounds! Thank you so much for this awesome puppy!"
Oliver — Ollie
Congrats to: Susan and family from Lebanon, TN on this Black Tri-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Ollie is taking the transition like a champ! He has such a calm disposition that nothing has bothered him yet, not even the vacuum, or an indoor volleyball match. He acted like he'd won the lottery when he was introduced to our big standard poodle. They are fast friends. He has settled in so quickly it's difficult to believe it's only been over a week since we picked him up. He is a beautiful pup with a sweet, lovable, people loving personality!"
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!"
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."
Georgia (Georgie) Grace
Congrats to: Anne and family from Houston, Texas on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Thanks so much for all the updates along the way. They have been super helpful!! Georgia (Georgie) Grace is doing great! She is just the best dog! She is very social, loves all people and dogs. We have gone to quite a few outings with lots of people and she’s done really well. She’s very brave and willing to try anything. In the training department she is truly amazing. I knew she would be smart but she picks up on things MUCH quicker than I every imagined. We have sit down, and rollover and potty training is at 99.9% with doggie door and going out all on her own. We are working on come when called (with distractions) and she could play center field for any MLB team!! She looooves balls and will play forever just fetching and bringing back. We have enrolled in puppy school and had our first lesson last week and she was top of the class! I couldn’t be happier with her. Thanks for all the tips along the way!"
Luna
Congrats to: Traci and family from California on this Black Bi-Color F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Loving all these tips! Our Luna is doing amazing - she is the sweetest pup, and it seems she got mama Sydney’s calm nature, yet also a bit of spunk! We love her so much and couldn’t be happier - thank you!!"
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."
Enzo
Congrats to: Tracy and family from Kiowa, CO on this Blue Merle w/White F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"We’ve had our Aussiedoodle home now for 3 ½ weeks and he is super smart and doing great! He’s only had 2 accidents in the house since the day we came home otherwise he’s 100% outside or in the litter box if we are not fast enough. Enzo has learned sit, look, let’s go, leash, off, his name and here with success about 95% of the time even off leash and under distraction. He rarely jumps on us even when he’s excited. Chewing on everything to chewing on appropriate things got about 90% better in the first week as we just replaced inappropriate items with appropriate ones. Crate training is great, occasionally a wine or two when we first go to bed, but typically he puts himself to bed around 9:00, he gets a small playpen with a litter box and 2 toys in his crate and we don’t hear a peep until 6am, then he’s positive it’s time to get up. He takes naps in his crate during the day with the door shut and if I need to run an errand or go outside he stays in his crate, when I return he is just lying there settled. We are working on go to your bed on command and staying off the furniture…he struggles a bit with these two. He loves loves the blowdryer and thinks it’s a game when the air hits his face he bites it, he does pretty well with baths and grooming and is getting better every time. He is a little shy about new things but very quickly watches for a minute, then approaches and checks them out, decides they are OK and moves on, we rarely have to re-visit anything that was scary initially. He’s very calm, smart and well adjusted, we’ve had so much fun so far with him…he’s actually a little too smart for us sometimes!"
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!"
Pickles
Congrats to: Angie and family from Charlestown, MA on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Our Pickles is the LOVE OF OUR LIFE. I've never met a more calm, well behaved, loving and BEAUTIFUL puppy. He melts everyone's heart who meets him. He's playful and fun outside with other puppies and calm, sweet and cuddly inside with EVERYONE!! We are beyond grateful for this perfect little angel."
Bentley
Congrats to: Sarah and family from St. Louis, Missouri on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Bentley is doing well!! He is super confident and not much scares him. His puppy crazy time is super crazy and he loves to puppy bite but it’s slowly getting better. He loves to chew on bully sticks (in our laps:)), play with his stuffed bear, and go on walks. He also likes bath time, especially when I put a little peanut butter on the bathtub wall. Right now he does not like getting in his crate for bedtime, and does not like pooping outside. Both of these things are slowly getting better but they are taking a lot of time. To socialize him in the time of covid I took him to Home Depot and pet store a lot in a pet carrier, as well as going through a drive thru with him on my morning coffee runs. He is super smart and remembers things well. He also loves puzzle toys and figures them out quickly! Training has its ups and downs but he is slowly getting there. He is getting much better at sitting on command and loose leash walking. He starts puppy daycare and training in two weeks once he is fully vaccinated!! He has brought so much joy and laughs to the family already and we can’t wait to watch him continue to grow into a wonderful dog. Thank you so much for the help and guidance along the way it has helped so much!!"
Rae
Congrats to: Diane and family from Queen Creek, Arizona on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"After an 18 hr round trip🛫🛬 journey, Rae is home 😃💖 Can’t say enough about Diane and Morgan🙏🏼 Rae is confident, a snuggler, smart as heck and full of vim and vigor (lots of positive energy🤪) Couldn’t ask for for a sweeter puppy and a better experience! Makes the waiting well worth it!!" - Diane
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!"
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!!"
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!"

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!"
Bowery
Congrats to: Tim and family from Washington, DC on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"These emails have been so helpful - thank you! Bowery is doing great! We just started working 1:1 with a trainer who comes once a week. Bowery is a very fast learner and also “very food motivated” :) according to our trainer. He got his final round of shots last week and we are excited to take him to the dog park soon to run without a leash and also (selectively) play with other puppies. Bowery hates cold weather and rain. On those days he would prefer to be a house cat. He has shown awesome athleticism - he is incredibly fast and a great jumper. We have a lot of dogs in our building and he’s getting to know many of them. He also has a mini Goldendoodle “cousin” who he loves to torment / play with. The first few weeks were a tough adjustment to puppy life, but these emails made a big difference. Thank you so much! We love Bowery and are so happy we brought him into our life."
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."
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!"
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!"
Franklin
Congrats to: Neil from New York, NY on this Phantom Blue Merle F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Franklin loves playing with anything that squeaks just as much as he loves burrowing himself into pillows on the couch. He’s interested in other dogs but is still a little shy on the playing front. He walks on a leash nice and is SO good with new people. He’s been on the subway, in stores, near fountains and sprinklers, and even taken the bus in the city. He is very interested in pools, and likes to sit on the first step, but has yet to swim. He’s good in the car as well. He goes into his crate, which is right next to my bed, at 10:30 every night and nuzzles to sleep. Franklin loves frozen green beans, ice cubes, frozen towels to chew on, and any food puzzle game. He loves bully sticks. He hates the vacuum and when I go in the shower. He likes to lay on the cold tile on the bathroom floors. Thanks for all of the communication and tip/advice over the past 9 weeks since I picked him up. I am so happy to have found such a great dog, and AwesomeDoodle made what could have been a VERY stressful experience very rewarding, and the best bonding experience for me and my new buddy."
Bean
Congrats to: Karley and family from Chicago, IL on this Black Phantom F1 AussieDoodle puppy.
"Hello, thank you so much for all of your support along the way! Bean is so, so perfect and we cannot imagine our life without her. Overall Bean has just done such an amazing job, and we fully credit AwesomeDoodle! Diane and Morgan started her off with such an amazing foundation, and all of the training videos and informational materials have helped us continue to support her growth. I have friends who got a puppy the same time we got Bean and hearing their struggles with potty training alone made me feel so grateful to have gone through awesome doodle. We would truly have had no clue what to do without you!" - Karley
