CLANCY'S ADOPTAVERSARY (DELAYED)

Posted on May 20, 2012 at 3:00am 6 Comments

March was an important month for our household with both Ned and Clancy celebrating their 4th birthdays AND the second anniversary of Clancy's adoption. 

Ned and I got our first glimpse of Clancy when we participated in our local no-kill shelter's fundraiser Walk-Around-The-Park.

It was love at first…

ANOTHER UPDATE ON SUNNY

This is my favorite picture  - the two rescue boys.

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE FOR SUNNY:

Sunny is perfectly crate trained for more than just night time.  He hates and attacks vacuums so I crated him while I cleaned and he just napped until I was done.  Yay!

He is doing very…

SUNNY REALLY IS A DELIGHT! UPDATE

Posted on August 15, 2011 at 10:30pm 6 Comments

Sunny got off to a rough start - mats, fleas, ticks, torn off nail, kennel cough, neutering, neutering infection (had to wear the dreaded cone for three weeks!). After having him for only ten days, his 'rescuer' fell and broke her hip and was unable to continue caring for him. My daughter kept Sunny for those first weeks. Sunny and her lab quickly bonded with each other. When she had to leave to work in another town, Sunny came to us. Sunny loves our dogs too and we have doodle wrestling and…

Profile Information

Where are you located?
Riverside, California
Tell us about yourself and how we might help you:
My husband and I are recently retired elementary school teachers in Southern Ca. We have 3 grown children - 2 in college and one darling grandchild.

Clancy
Tell us about your doodle(s) and/or other pets that you have:
Our doodles were born on Saint Patrick's Day, 2008. One is a small medium apricot Australian Labradoodle that we named Ned, and the other is a apricot/cream doodle named Clancy. We had 2 other dogs - an 12 year old Lab/Australian Shepherd mix (passed 9/3/10) and a now 8 year old English Springer Spaniel. Simon, our Lab mix let new dogs know he was both boss and caretaker. Gordie, our Springer, is a sweet submissive soul who just doesn't know how to assert any authority. The doodles steal his toys.
Where did you get your doodle(s) and/or why you have chosen a doodle
We had two dogs and weren't looking for another, but we met a small Labradoodle when we were camping and fell in love. We immediately went on the internet and learned as much as we could about doodles. We ended up with a smaller sized Australian Labradoodle that my husband picked because when we were viewing the puppies, he climbed into the water bucket to play.

Clancydoodle arrived because we couldn't leave him in a shelter even though he was safe there. He had been rescued from a kill shelter by the local humane society. They had a fund raiser and wisely took him to show him off - I was hooked, but we gave others a chance to choose him. The humane society listed him as a labradoodle, but we suspect that he might be a goldendoodle.
I started off by saying we had two perfectly wonderful dogs and didn't need more. We didn't NEED more, but doodle-fever cannot be cured.
Are you now involved in Rescue? If so, how? Tell us a bit as to why you are here:
I would like to help. I think I could help with clerical or telephone tasks, and my husband and I could transport.

Hi,

I did fill out the volunteer form, i am trying to see where the doodle rescue is located . I would love to foster but right now we cant add many extra expenses to our budget and i would have a hard time having to give them away , i would land up adopting all of them.If the rescue is within an hour of where i live i would love to go in and volunteer with the doodles.

We r starting with a trainer tonight, they r coming to the house for an3 hour session?!- he was always high energy but his extreme behavior really started when I had our second baby in August-he really is so jealous of him- if I talk to the baby he is right in my face, and now that the baby is on the floor a lot Oliver will step or jump over him to get where he wants to go.  Never cautious- as of recently he has started growling, pullin his lips back n showing me his teeth, nipping and what appears to be trying to bite my husband n I if we try to make him do anything he doesn't want to do?!- I feel as if I m going on n on but there is so much bad behavior.  I m making him seem like a terriable dog but he really can be sweet!- ??? My biggest issue is now I m actually afraid of him n I wonder if training will help or if I m waist in my money on training  which is not cheap??-

Is it always the case that you don't adopt out to families with kids younger than 12?

At 11:49am on May 4, 2012, Kathy West said…

Thanks for your comment Nancy.  Yes, we have thought of working with a trainer, but I guess I didn't expect a problem with these 2 dogs so I won't be able to start doing that until the beginning of June because of time constraints.  We had a beautiful golden retriever that passed away in September and Bach got along just fine with our golden.  But, silly me, I forgot how active puppies are, so I know I should have given that more thought.  What do you think would be the best way to teach Mendelssohn not to run over the top of Bach? In a way, you can't blame Bach for being so annoyed with Mendelssohn.

Thanks guys.  we hope to find just the right adoptee.  I looked at the listings and did not notice the initials for a state, nor did I realize that adopted dogs could not fly, is that alone or can I accompany the adoptee.

Thanks for the information. I have completed the application and will start checking regularly.

Thank you very much for your welcoming comments to me joining the "Doodle" blog.  I love your doodles.  They are adorable. Great slide show.

Thank you so much for the comment and helpful aid to enhance our search. We had completed an application 2 weeks ago regarding Angelica. We felt that she was a perfect match for not only my husband and I but our little bichon as well.Kim Keely contacted  me to let me know that her adoption was pending. We are anxious to find our baby and bring her/him home. Our little Bichon is excited too as he had just returned from his week long vacation at his cousins house, Eddie & Sophie who are two maltese dogs. He is home now laying on the sofa and runs to the window when he hears the sound of a leash outside. He thinks every dog is waiting to play with him.

Hello.  Thank you for your message and for the helpful information.  I am not an ideal candidate for adoption through DRC.  I have 2 young children, ages 1 and 4.  Do you have any advise for adopting an adult dog?  I have never adopted a rescue and was hoping to adopt through an experienced group with specific breed knowledge to help me find the right dog for our young family.  I also have a dog door.  Do you know why they are not allowed by DRC?  Kaya loved going out to lay on the deck in the middle of the night.  I would appreciate any knowledge/ experience you can share.  Thanks!

Thanks so much! Definitely have been looking at all the possible dogs and trying to figure if right now is a good time to bring another one into the family. Thanks again.

Thanks so much for the warm welcome! Had an emergency out-of-state so have been gone for a couple of weeks. But, I have fabulous news. We are the proud owners of a 1 yr. old male goldendoodle named Koda. A friend of a friend had to move unexpectedly and could no longer keep him. He has been part of our family for a week and we just love him. He is pure white, long hair. Sometimes, things just have a way of working out.

maybe mentioning the adoption policies twice will get people to read them or maybe it will just give them 2 opportunities to ignore it.  :) 

Happy Easter!

Thanks for welcoming me.  I am not looking to adopt another dog for at least a few years.  Just gathering information and hoping to get involved in some capacity in rescue again.
