DOODLES HAVE ARRIVED!!!!!

THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL!!!!
8 BLACK  AND BLACK/WHITE DOODLE
PUPS ARE HERE!

This is what they look like now...

And this is what they'll look like in a few weeks:

Aren't they gorgeous???

Average size at adulthood:  50-55 lbs. Female
60-70 lbs. Male.
These are gentle, affectionate, smart dogs with no-shed or low-shed qualities from the Poodle side. Sweet-natured, used to children and good with other pets. Parents are both AKC registered. 

Interest list has begun. Price: $600.00

My theory has always been that good, smart, gentle dogs pass those intrinsic qualities on to their offspring. 

Puppies will be vet-checked by Apple Country Veterinary Services in Hilton.
Call 585-392-2763 to be put on interest list.
Deposits not necessary as yet.

Thank you!

Puppies Being Born!!!!

Got my coffee.... And three puppies so far! We started delivering at 12:22 AM, and we've just delivered #3!!!

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!

Sadie is being her typical wonderful Mom-self and taking great care of each new arrival. Puppy #1 (a girl) is in a cozy box by the wood stove to stay warm while Mom takes care of #2 (male) and #3 (?????)  I won't check #3 and do a weigh in until Mom's had a few more minutes with him/her.

SO EXCITING!!!!!

No Puppies Yet!!!!!

But we can see them moving inside.... And Mama is acting like she's ready. Hunting for a spot... Digging holes because her instinct tells her she needs to make a "den"....

My instinct says I don't want to fish puppies out from beneath the shed, so I've limited her digging opportunities!

Silly dog.

Here's a pic of the birthing center, ready for the moment:


And here's a picture of Sadie.... And Maple, our house calico who gave birth to six tiny kittens In The Kitchen.... Yes, she likes to be around people, she's a social cat.... three days ago. She and Sadie were due within a few days of each other, so things are happening here!


And here's a pic of Maple with her babies... In the laundry basket, in the kitchen.  I'm glad my animals love me!


Aren't they adorable????  All are doing well. And they're waiting for puppies to play with!

I'll post again once the happy occasion has occurred. We're praying for a safe and sound delivery for all concerned.

At this point we have five people on the "Interest List" for Sadie's litter, and we're grateful for the continued interest in our little endeavor! God bless you all.

We've had it on good authority from the canine stork that Sadie....

This is Sadie... 


And Mick....


Will have puppies in about two weeks time. Sadie tends to deliver around day 58-60 so we're on puppy watch after March 16th!!!!!




Sadie's litter for 2011
We will post the birth announcement right here when the happy occasion occurs. We're praying for a healthy and happy delivery for all!


If you'd like to be put on the "interest list" please call us at 585-392-2763. There is no obligation on your part to be on the interest list, it just serves as information for us to know how many people are interested in a given litter. No deposits are accepted until pups are born.  E-mail is hearthsidekennels@gmail.com

ALSO!!!!!


Libby ....



our beautiful chocolate brown standard poodle... One of the best dogs I've ever owned, smart, affectionate, well-mannered...


AND MICK AGAIN!!!!!

Are expecting as well and their puppies look like this little guy right here!  Isn't he adorable?  Their puppies are due about a week after Sadie's due to whelp. This is a Golden Doodle. Yes, he's black. And mom is dark brown. And Mick is red/gold. 


I do not know how this happens, but I'm assured it's quite normal in Dog World.


We are beginning an "interest list" for the upcoming Doodles as well. If you'd like your name on the interest list, please call us at 585-392-2763. Puppy choices will be determined by your placement on the list but no deposits are taken until puppies are born and you're sure that you'd like one. Thank you!
