Penny waiting for Lindy to Finnish her job.

Proud mama!

7 down... ? To go..

Here are a few shots of our F1b mini Doodles..


Let's try something new.

I'm trying to see if this new app will let me post real time photos, here we go!

Please pass the Ice Cream!

Yes, that is what I said.... Ice cream !!! Why might you ask? According to one of our favorite whelping books there are three thing to remember when you female is in labor -they are called the Three Musketeers - Glucose, Calcium and Oxytocin.  The Glucose give energy, Calcium releases calcium from the cells and helps with whelping and oxytocin helps with contractions. 

The reason that I mention this is because its 10am here in Nashville and Lindy has officially had 2bowls of, you guessed it, Ice Cream. Then you ask what does that mean?? We are watching her pace, pant, stand up and try and get comfortable, just to decide that that isn't the place that she wants to have her little ones! 

We will let you all know when we have puppies born, and depending on how hectic it all is, we may even post a whelping video!

They are HERE!!!

I know a lot of my friends post on their blogs THERE birth story and even though I DO have a child I am more excited about sharing with everyone Penny having her first litter rather than explaining all of the in's and outs of my labor and delivery. There, is nothing wrong with that Right??
Welp(yes, that is a pun) after 16hrs of stage1 labor, 2hrs easy of active labor(stage2), our Penny girl had 6 beautiful healthy puppies, 2girls and 4boys! They rage from a Strawberry Blond color all the way to the darker boys that are more of an Irish Setter red! There weights were between 7.5oz to 10oz which for Miniature F1Bs Goldendoodles couldn't be better

We plan on starting them with our Puppy preschool tomorrow and Yes, I promise... I will be posting new photos of our Litter..
