Maxi

This is one of Danni and Cesar‘s pups, so this is Cesar’s first litter (and Danni’s last). These people have done an amazing job with this pup….they had never had a dog before, and listened to all my advise, read books, watched videos….I truly wish every pup owner would be this responsible. The end result here will be a wonderful dog that they can, and will, be proud of. That in turn makes me proud to be the breeder! Her owners wrote:

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

We are very pleased with Maxi, she has grown on everyone in the family. She is a quick learner and loves people.

On our first vet visit, the vet commented “the breeder knows what she’s doing”.

She did whine at night when her kennel was in a different part of the house. The “fix” for us was to move the kennel where she could see the stairs leading up to the bedrooms. She distinguishes her play with all our girls. She’ll lay down for our 5 year old to be petted or brushed, she responds to our 7 year olds commands/tricks in no time and horse plays with our 10 year olds accordingly. In the new year we plan but to begin classes with her (although she picks up on stuff in no time).

She has never pooed in the house, by the third day she was ringing the bell to go outside. However, now with the coming and going of new people during the holidays, she now gets excited and urinates when she meets someone new (otherwise she urinates outside).

We are all really pleased with her, and to date have not noticed any shedding.

Sully

Another update on the magnificent Sully! In answer to their question below, cutting the hair shorter (not clipped out) will help with the snow balls. Around the base of the foot and between the pads and toes, don’t clip it all out, it will be way too cold on his feet. I love the picture of his lounging on the couch! They asked:

Sully loves the snow and sleeping on the couch. The cold does not bother him. However, he does get ice balls in his paws and there has been some blood in the ice balls. Do you know of anything or use anything that prevents ice balls and protects the paws? Thanks.

Check out this great video! I can not believe how gentle Sully was with this sparrow, he could have swallowed it whole! I am going to forward this to all my dog people… these guys have done an amazing job!

—————————————————————–

Here is a quick update from Sully’s family:

Just a quick email to let you know Sully s doing great! We’ve been extraordinarily busy around here. He was great with my brother’s 10 month and 3 year old. Our son was home for a week and they bonded like bothers! Just like people you can see a different kind of relationship with different people!

Sully’s walking has improved tremendously with lots of patience, reinforcement and persistence. He still likes to be slightly in front but not pulling.
He is so affectionate I call him my “love bug”. He has made a collection of loose tree branches logs under the pine tree in the back yard. He has been house broken for months so much that the new carpet arrives this week! We are working on a surprise trick for Kylee’s return in 2 weeks from Europe.

His most favourite toy are eggs that squeek and come with a stuffie toy, in our case crocodile, that have a pouch to put them in so the dog can dig them out! He loves us to throw and he loves to fetch them. He will purposefully toss or push them into places that create more of a job to get to them! For instance, under the dishwasher open door, behind a coffee table, etc. He is pure enjoyment to watch!

Sully’s owners sent us another update, as well as the video above which features the playful Sully stealing a Kleenex!

Sully is still enjoying skiing with us. There is one designated dog trail at the ski hill. Sully will wait at a door until asked to come out. He can sit, down and wait on hand signal and verbal command. He is superb at leave it. We are having to work lots on loose leash training outside. Indoors he is perfect.

 

He really enjoyed watching and listening to War Horse the other night. He seriously looked like he was taking in the entire movie! He must remember about animals in the barn.

——————————————–

Another update from the owners of the very well-trained Sully! They wrote to tell us:

Well the training is going well. The pop can with pennies was only needed once for barking at night and jumping up when excited along with positive reinforcement of the appropriate alternative behaviours!
This is Sully, 5 months old, holding a carrot in his mouth for 3 minutes on a “wait” before he can eat it. He is soooo smart! AND cute too!

——————————————-

Sully’s owners sent us some new pictures! They wrote:

Sully is doing very well. We had a good first Christmas with him and our son in town. He picked up a few bad habits like smoking (see attached photo) Smile. He loves cross country skiing with us. Really stays close and keeps checking on both of us. He starts puppy classes in January. We have been practicing “watch me” and “wait”. He is super smart and has a strong desire to train!

——————————————-

Sully lives in Winnipeg with his happy new owners. He is from Danni and Cesar’s September litter. His owners wrote to tell us:

Sully has been keeping us hopping. He loves all the attention he can get and running around outside. He is too cute, and smart. He is already piddling in the outdoor dog pen for us. He is at 90% coming when we use the informal “here Sully.” We are holding him lots now while he is small enough. Puppies grow so fast. We dug some paths through the snow and he runs around in them. We think he smells the rabbit, but has not seen it yet. He has noticed the birds including the blue jay peering into the patio window that I have stopped feeding since I found many small dead sparrows in our yard! Our daughter is loving the company and relationship. The first few nights were a bit rough, but we moved the kennel into our bedroom and he has been fine. The best word to describe his adjustment is secure. He is so secure. We believe all of your intentional actions from the get go have allowed him to be so relaxed, confident and well adjusted! We have attached a few photos. Sully goes to the vet on Tuesday. We will definitely keep you posted every week – 2 weeks for the next while. we can hardly wait to parade him around the neighbourhood!

Deeva

Meet Deeva, the smiling F1 Labra Doodle. This girl was born here on Fur Fettish Farm on August 26, 2012. Her mother is Amber, an outstanding Chocolate English Labrador Retriever. Her father is Pluto, a now retired black Standard Poodle who is still with us, and at 12 1/2 years old is solid as a rock.

Deeva is a bit of a clown, she literally smiles, pulling her gums back and showing off her pearly whites. Her mature weight is about 65 lbs. She has a very nice flat English Retriever head and wide chest with good spring of rib. Her temperate is very much Lab, laid back and extremely loyal.

She is pregnant with her second litter of pups, due mid April 2016. She was bred to Einstein, who has produced many great Golden and Labra Doodles over the years.

—————————————————————-

Deeva, daughter of Amber and Einstein, is wishing everyone that visits our web site, a Merry Christmas….this girl just keeps looking better, I can hardly wait for 2014 when she and Cesar (Chocolate Standard Poodle) have their first pups. This is what keeps me ticking! I will be 65 this month and am hoping my old body holds together until I am 70 (for my dogs sakes) and then I will have to rethink my breeding program….until then I intend on producing some beautiful pups that will go on to become an important part of many homes! Merry Christmas from me, Margaret-Ann, and all my critters!

—————————————————————-

Check me out guys and keep an eye on this website in two years when I have my first birth announcement! I am from Amber and Einstein, I was born on August 26th. 2012, my Grandmother is Abbey and my Grandfather is Trump….all are English Labrador Retreivers, so I have a nice flat head, perfect eye and ear set and a nice barrel chest. My Dad, Einstein, is a registered Standard Poodle, he is apricot and has sired some of the best Doodle pups in Canada. I am destined to be bred to Cesar, a registered Chocolate Standard Poodle, when I am two….the results should be pretty outstanding. I am a very gentle, eager to please little girl that learns quickly…I have very good manners as that is the rule here on Fur Fettish Farm. Pictures of me will be updated as I get older, I am going to be a beauty….Margaret-Ann keeps telling me that and I am trying not to let it go to my head!

Cesar

Irving’s Travelin’ Cesar is the registered name of this awesome specimen of a Chocolate Standard Poodle….named after a man I admire ‘Cesar Milan’! This big guy just flows, he has flawless confirmation from head to toe and a gentle sweetheart personality to go with it.

His sire is Bellefleet Travelin’ Soldier and his dam is Bemine’s Someday Girl N Sanvar, both are Chocolate. We are getting ready to produce some of the best Chocolate Doodles in the country. I have three English Chocolate Labs that will be old enough to breed in the spring and two Golden Retrievers that are going to be bred to him also….so look for some well bred Doodles from Fur Fettish Farm next year.

Cesar is 1-1/2 now and has produced only one litter of pups so far, from Danni (F1 Labra Doodle). Eleven puppies and every one black….black is only a color as is Chocolate, his pups are already showing his great looks and personality. He is lanky looking now, like a teenager filling out. He is graceful, well coordinated and has great confirmation….he will definitely be bigger than either Einstein or Pluto. He will be breeding daughters from both of them next year to produce some outstanding F1B Doodles….so watch this site in the spring or contact me for an update of who he may be ‘camping out’ with next.

F1B Labra Doodle Litter (Danni) – Born September 8, 2012

All Danni’s puppies have now been SOLD!

These are Danni’s last two female F1B Labra Doodle puppies, and they are the last, Danni is now retired. In my eyes she is the best F1 Labra Doodle I have ever raised and kept back for breeding! She is so loyal that I can not place her into a forever home, she has to stay with me….she is faithfully at my side when she could be playing with the other dogs or just laying in the shade. If I come in the house she is with Mudflap, the cow dog chasing gophers or holding down the deck while having a nap but if she hears the door open she is right back to supervise my every move.

I have been leash training her last two daughters, for training purposes they are named Andi and Sadi, they have been separated now and get a minimum of 15 minutes of training every day while I am outside. They are excellent at staying in the proper ‘heel’ position and sit on command, they have almost mastered ‘sit’ as soon as I stop, then they wait for the heel command to move forward. We are working on ‘stay’ and I can circle them and get back into position to proceed with ‘heel’. We walk through all the kennel area and they are quickly learning to pay attention to me, not the other dogs.

These girls have three sets of boosters, have been dewormed three times, are well handled, feet and nails are a breeze….all they need now is a forever home. They are non shedding and will require clipping at least twice a year, I do them in Schnauzer clip with a moustache and they are adorable but there are several options in clipping, one recently hit the news clipped as a Lion.

Due to surgery, and complications afterwards, that limited my ‘sitting at the computer time’ this litter didn’t get advertized as they usually are, so Andi and Sadi are now 5 months old, BUT if someone is a working family that needs to crate the pup while they are away at work, and doesn’t have time to drag an 8 week old puppy around or wipe up numerous pees before it catches on to going outside….then this really is an option. Andi and Sadi are old enough to hold their pee and poop all night, so no getting up in the night to take them out, they are old enough to stay in a crate while you are away at work…..and they will be the welcome home when you arrive from work.

If you procrastinate on going for a walk, one of these girls would gladly accompany you and walk properly beside you. They look shaggy right now because they play in the snow and just have a blast…..there is no way to brush them out when they are wet…they, however, will be bathed and brushed before they meet you.

I am asking $700 for these pups. I am not making any profit on these girls as I have already put a lot of time and money into them, but I need to lighten my work load and they need their own family to love. If these girls turn out to be half the dog their mother is then you will have a winner and I see so much potential here for outstanding dogs. Everyone that has purchased a pup from this litter is thrilled with their puppy, this was a big litter of 11 pups, so nine have already gone on to be a valuable member of their new forever family. I have lots of references and the price of the puppy includes delivery.

———————————————————————–

Danni and Cesar had a whopping 11 pups on Sept. 8th. and 7 have gone to their forever homes, their new owners are raving about how super smart they are, loyal and clean and non shedding….what more could you want in a pup. These girls will grow into the best of the best!

They have had three sets of boosters, have been dewormed three times and dew claws are removed. They stand well for grooming and are excellent about having their feet handled and nails done. I will have to admit that because of some health issues I have not been right on top of getting these girls advertized over the holidays but that is alright, they will get into the forever home and it will be the right one when it happens.

I have started training, now I need to think up four names for them for training purposes….today they put the smaller sled harness on and tried to be like their Dad. He has been pulling straw bales around for me and has brought several loads of wood from the hay shed to the wood shed…he doesn’t quite have it mastered but is a quick learner so it won’t be long and we will be ‘mushing through the snow. It is funny to watch him sit down and look around at himself as if to check to make sure he hasn’t turned into a Husky, then he looks at me as if to say….”I am a Poodle, Margaret-Ann, what is your problem!”

These pups are $900, that price includes delivery. As I put more training into them I am going to raise the price. There are a lot of people that prefer an older pup that is well started and ready to sleep through the night. These pups have had access to a crate with the door off since they were 5 weeks old, so have no fear of a crate. They are trained to pee and poop in one area and now know how to use a dog door, so house and crate training will be fast. All they need now is their own family to love. Call 306 792-2113 or use my contact page for more pictures and information.

———————————————————————–

Danni and Cesar now have four F1B Labra Doodle females and one male left to choose from, they are all curly coated, non shedding and have sweetheart temperaments. The father is Cesar, a lanky, well put together Chocolate Standard Poodle….this is his first litter, and Danni’s last, so this cross will never be available again. In my eyes Danni is the best F1 Labra Doodle I have raised to date and she has produced some awesome pups from Einstein….this litter will be equally as good if not better.

They are well handled, old enough to sleep through the night, they were born Sept 8th. so are now 3 1/2 months old, just right to start some serious training. They have been sleeping in a crate with the door off, so crate training will be a snap and they are already trained to pee and poop in one small area of their pen, so housetraining will be a breeze.

These pups have had three sets of boosters so are now Parvo proof and ready to go anywhere you would like to take them. Dew claws are off, they have had the little ends nipped off their nails weekly and paw massages, so they are very good about having their feet handled (which will pay off when clipping time comes around in the spring).

They will be completely non shedding so if you have allergies in your family this is the route to go.

———————————————————————–

Danni and Cesar’s pups are happy, healthy and ready for their new families. They will have their second set of boosters and vet check this Friday and will be old enough to start leaving this Sunday. These are Danni’s last pups and Cesar’s first, they will be non shedding, mature at between 50 and 70 lbs. depending on the puppy, these will be taller than most of my Doodles have been, Cesar is 23 inches at the wither.

Both Danni and Cesar are mild tempered, gentle with children and other animals, clean and very loyal. Here on Fur Fettish Farm the dogs get daily runs and are allowed into the horse pasture, which also contains a Llama and an Alpaca and two Miniature Donkeys, everyone here knows the rules and everyone gets along.

I am sad to be retiring Danni, but she has done her part in my breeding program and is now going to be a yard dog and backup gopher hunting companion for the cow dog ‘Mudflap’. In my eyes Danni is the best Labra Doodle I have ever produced so my breeding program is striving to match or surpass that mark.

For more pictures of any certain pup please refer to it by the stuffy or toy that accompanies it in the pictures. You can call me at 306 792-2113 or on my cell 306 521-1371 and I would be more than happy to ‘talk dog’ with you. I strive to help put the right dog into the right home, even if you do not buy a dog from me I will try to help you make an informed decision and make you aware of how to keep your dog safe via boosters and a proper deworming program.

———————————————————————–

Danni (F1 Labra Doodle) has had her last litter of puppies, born Sept. 8th,2012. This is also Cesar‘s first litter, he is the new kid on the block, a Registered Chocolate Standard Poodle with bloodlines to be very envious of… I can not believe my good fortune to own two such well bred and awesome dogs as Danni and Cesar (named for Cesar Milan The Dog Whisperer). Danni will be spayed and retire here on Fur Fettish Farm….she is a keeper right to the end.

This pair produced 11 awesome pups, not a runt or poor quality pup amongst them….I am truly impressed! We have 6 females and 5 males, from straighter coats to curly…. this is the first and last time for this cross, Danni has done her part and Cesar is just starting to dazzle us with what he can do.

I will not even try to tell you these will be small pups, Danni has solid English Lab in her bloodlines and Cesar is a lanky, very well put together Standard Poodle who at 1-1/2 is still filling out. He is like a teenage boy trying to figure out his manliness and is just a comic in personality, eager to please and well behaved, gentle, kind with other dogs…. I can’t say enough good about this fellow. With the grandfather being Pluto, the grandmother being Kimberly, a Registered English Lab, we have a win win situation here…. if these pups would have been born Chocolate they would have demanded more money but the black genetics won out and all eleven are pitch black! In my eyes Danni is the best F1 Labra Doodle I have ever produced and I am sad that this is her last litter but I do not over breed my dogs so she is going to become a deck ornament, and back up gopher hunting companion for Mudflap, the cow dog, for the rest of her years.

If you have been thinking it is time to add an F1B Labra Doodle to your household do not pass this litter up. I will hold a puppy for you if you are not ready until later this year, and when pups stay here past their 8 weeks they are well handled and taught manners while they wait to go to their forever home. Please choose wisely, I pride myself in putting the right pup into the right forever home the first time every time. I am here to advise you and help you make your puppy into the pride of your neighborhood.

For more information or pictures of a certain pup that catches your eye, or pictures of the parents or grandparents please call 306 792-2113 or 306 521-1371 or browse our web site until you find what you need!

Dory

Dory in her new home on a farm near Melfort. I really wanted her to go where there were kids and room to be free, and she looks pretty happy.

—————————————————————–

I brushed Dory out and took fresh pictures of her. She is (hopefully) bred to Cesar (Chocolate Standard Poodle) and due to whelp in July. I am really hoping for a few Chocolate as her Grandmother is Abbey, my first Chocolate English Lab, her Mother is Misty (Yellow English Lab) and her father is Pluto….these should be some outstanding pups as Misty’s Father is the Mighty Trump. Dory was born June 8th, 2010 and this will be her second litter.

———————————————————–

Dory is Debbie‘s full sister, but they are not alike in build or personality.  Dory was born June 8th, 2010, her mother is Misty, making Trump and Abbey her Grandparents.  Her father is Pluto.

Dory is a clown.  She follows Debbie everywhere and then when Debbie takes a break Dory sits on her head, or pulls on her collar, brings her a dead leaf or a toy and wants to go play again.  She idolizes her sister but likes to be in her own pen and have her own space.  She is very much in looks and characteristic like her aunt, F1 LabraDoodle Dayle.
