Love Is Liberty Doodles

Debbie, Dave and Chelsea,
Pinkie was great during the ride back to San Francisco. Just wanted to let you know, she is absolutely amazing and we couldn't be happier. We decided that none of our names exactly suited her so we are still working on that. In this picture, she has made herself at home under the kitchen table. I can send other pictures as she grows if you are interested.

Thanks again,
Angela

Debbie & Family,
We've settled on Baci (pronounced bachee) as a name. It means "kisses" in Italian, and it trully fits her personality! Baci had a great visit with the vet yesterday and has an appointment in two weeks for her vaccines.

Dante, our youngest, loves running with her......it's like I have 2 puppies! It's very cute. There are two pictures attached. I took these after she "helped" me "sort" the laundry. She needed a rest...

Talk to you soon,
Angela & Family

Dear Debbie and Chelsea,
Sorry that I did not get back to you sooner. had a few computer problems. Cassidy went for her 16 week check and weighed in right at 28 lbs. She is doing really well. She and Abbagayle get to visit each other and have not yet seemed to have forgotten who they are. Every time, they are very excited to see each other like they are long lost friends. I have been working with Cassidy at home on training but we will begin official dog training classes on Sunday. I am also checking into seminars for therapy dog training and licensing as I feel that Cassidy would be a great therapy dog. She is so calm and good not only with other dogs but also with everyone that she meets. That does not mean that she cannot be VERY active sometimes. Often she never seems to stop. But she does understand when it is time to play and when it is not. I love her Dearly. Thank you so much for your gift to me. She is helping to fill a very big hole in my life.
Thanks again,
Jenny

Thanks for the birthday wishes!!!! I do not have any current pics available right not but will send some soon. Cassidy is doing GREAT! She currently weighs 45 lbs. She is still black but with a lot of gray in her under growth. She also has a grey face and gray legs. She looks much different now than her sister Abbegayle. She looks bigger than she weighs as she has very long legs. She and her sister still get along every time we are together, just as though they have never been apart. They love to visit each other.
For many months now Cassidy and I have been working on dog training. She is in training to be a therapy dog for the Delta Society. I have been working with several trainers who all think that she is perfect for the job. She just loves people and is very gentle with everyone, yet will tolerate a lot of noise and commotion with out stopping her from doing what she has to do. I take her every where with me, and have found many public places that will allow her in, as she is a real friend maker, and everyone loves to have her.
Thank you for keeping up with her progress. I will have to bring her to come visit some time.
Sincerely,
Jenny and Cassidy

Hello everybody,
Dan and I took Kahlua to the vet today for her last set of shots and rabies vaccination. She has a clean bill of health and weighs a wopping 23.6 pounds. I am curious to see how big Kahlua's brothers and sisters are. She has lost her two top front teeth and her two bottom front teeth. She does not potty in the house (which is great) and we have lots of stuff for her to chew on so she doesn't get in trouble for chewing on stuff she shouldn't be. We have two more puppy classes left and she has learned to come when called, sit stay, down stay, and we are now combining cues and testing her by dropping a treat on the ground while in a sit or down stay, etc. She is doing wonderful! We couldn't have got a better dog! I have attached a recent picture for you. Tell everybody Kahlua says hi and that she is having fun being a puppy.
Talk to you later,
Amber, Dan, Shasta & Kahlua

Hello everybody! We received the birthday card you sent via e-mail and Kahlua absolutely loved it and says thank you! We threw a birthday party for Kahlua today and we all had so much fun. I ordered a cake with her picture on it and it turned out absolutely adorable (a picture is attached). The bakery also gave her a free 6" cake because it was her 1st birthday so that was nice. I also attached a picture of the birthday girl sitting next to her cake. My mom and her dog Sasha came over for the birthday party and Kahlua's sister Shasta also joined in the festivities. Kahlua got to go on several car rides today (which she loves to do), play with her sisters, play fetch, AND she got treats everywhere we went. She also got to go to her favorite place (PetSmart) where she picked out some treats and we weighed her. She weighs 48 lbs. We have only met 2 other labradoodles in our area and 3 goldendoodles. Kahlua is a hit wherever we go. Kahlua also got to go camping this summer and she was so excited to play in the water all day that she completely wore herself out and passed out in her food dish. She is a GREAT dog and she brings a lot of joy and laughter to our lives daily. I have 3 more pictures to send you but I will send them in a separate email so the emails are not too large.
I also see that Kahlua is going to have some half brothers and sisters...CONGRATULATIONS!
If it is not too much trouble I would love to know how big Kahlua's brothers and sisters are compared to her. Can't wait to hear from you all. Hope everyone is doing well and kiss mom (Liberty) for us.
Love,
Amber, Dan, Shasta & Kahlua

Hi
Good to hear from you. We are all doing just fine. Lola is a very important part of our family and we love her a lot. She is so much fun, we usually refer to her as being filled with the joy of life. She has been very healthy and is fit and trim.

It's fun to take her on walks as she is quite the attention getter. People often stop us and ask about her. Of course, she loves the attention. We are still working with her on being better behaved on her leash, but she is trying to be better.

She and I are going back up to Tahoe tomorrow for a few days. I'll take some new pictures of her and send them soon.

Congratulations on Liberty being with puppy(s) again. Looking forward to seeing pictures of the new pups when you post them.

Rick

Hey!
It's been too long. Things have been CRAZY!
Pups just came back from the vet with Stellar reviews.
Good weight, good confirmation, joints, muscles, testicles (hee...they're so tiny!!!), EVERYTHING
And the vet was astounded at the care you took. The dewclaws and chipping and worming and what not.
You let us adopt two phenomenal babies, and we thank you every day.

They are doing SOOO well, except for a propensity to eat wood, which we're working on. Lol
Also, will be starting Puppy school in the next week.

My camera's been giving me fits, but I'll try and shoot them and send you updates. They are absolutely beautiful. And kind and SOOOO smart...

Thanks again, and I hope everyone's doing well there. Please give Liberty a hug for having such perfect babies.
And Happy Holidays to everyone there!!!!

Kerri, John, Paris, Maggie & Milo

Debby,
Tahlulla is growing like the proverbial weed! She just had the last of her puppy shots and is free to leave the house and back yard. On Friday she weighed in at 22 lbs. The vet didn't measure her height so Steve and I tried. She is somewhere between 17 and 18 inches at the hip, but we can't give you an exact because she thought this was a great new game.
We simply adore her, she plays well with her "little" sister and all of her new cousins, truly believes she is a small lap dog, and cuddles wonderfully at night. Thank you so much!
We will keep you posted on her progress.
Dee and Steve

Hi everyone,
We were worried. Tallulah sent an email and it came back! Probably that lack of thumb thing. Tallulah is fine. She is frisky, fun and friendly. Her best friend (Lulu, a standard poodle) comes to play once a week, and she has cousins that come stay for the weekend frequently.

We are beyond happy with her and she is the happiest dog ever!

Dee and Steve
