Halloween
Royalty came to visit Riverbend Labradoodles this Halloween!
Even a Princess can't resist a soft furry hug from Laguna!
Moxie is respectfully waiting for his hug!
What a good puppy!

After a day with him, we decided he really wasn't a "Freddie" so we re-named him. He is now Bailey and already responds to his name. He is doing well with potty training and caught on to the bell on the door very quickly - the only problem is that he rings it often just so he can go outside.
He caught his first squirrel his second day here. It got away and went up a tree and of course Bailey tried to climb the tree as well. He unzipped the cover and chewed up the foam rubber pad for his crate, but except for that he has been very good about only chewing his toys. We love that he sleeps quietly through the night because he makes our days pretty busy.
He came home from being neutered yesterday and acts as though nothing happened. I have narrowed down a list of trainers and will be calling them today to choose one and get started. He is a big boy and we need to control the jumping!! he is very smart so I am sure he will respond well.
Again - thank you. We love him already!

 I had a pretty intense doctor appointment today and, of course, Bogart went with me as my Service Dog. While waiting for the doctors, I sat on the floor with him for comfort. Look at this fabulous doodle from Riverbend! His coloring is absolutely gorgeous! He turned 4 on September 26th, 2011 and he just gets better and better! Look at the love, tenderness and compassion in those eyes!! Bogart now not only serves me, but works as a volunteer for Royal Oak Beaumont Hospital. He also works with Autistic and Downe Syndrome children. Everyone just LOVES him to pieces! Little children just wait for him to show up at the Hospital annex. One little boy, Kevin, had a really bad speech problem and he hated going for his therapy. BUT! He met Bogart! He looked forward to seeing him AND his speech actually was more clear and slower in Bogart's presence. Riverbend is nothing but the BEST!! Here are his pictures with me at the docs office today. Don't let the collar scare you. It's a Martingale and just hangs there.......no harsh treatment for my little man!! Thank you so much for being in our lives and bringing Bogart to us! Linda, Walt annnnnd BOGART!!  |

Just thought I'd touch base and say hello to you and Chad and I hope all is going well in Ohio. Believe it or not Harry is going to be two in December and he is such a big big boy! He is 79 lbs and I have no doubt he will probably reach 80 lbs by his birthday. He gets shout outs wherever I take him about how beautiful he is - and his finest feature - is of course his big black nose! He is such a good good boy and I love him dearly!
Thank you again for breeding such fine Doodles!

had a great fetching am today. FINALLY the rain stopped. wasn't able to get any great pics but i'll get some this fall for you to put on the blog.
i'm so glad he got in the wagon! he's used to standing on the lip in the back of the van and looking out the window. in the wagon he just lays there and can see everything! and no dirty nose prints on my back window :) it's the little things in life, ya know?!
have a great day!
