Goldie's and Bo's F1 Standard Goldendoodles Born on July 6, 2025
Goldie's and Bo's had 6 F1 Standard Goldendoodles on July 6, 2025.
Goldie was labouring all day Saturday and ended up whelping throughout the early morning hours into the later morning on Sunday. All a part of being a breeder is supporting your mamas through their labour and delivery, through all hours of the day. Many mamas do well on their own and wait when you have to leave for a bit to give birth to more pups, and Goldie seemed to be one of those moms. So, I would then watch from my surveillance camera instead. She, too, has settled into her role as a first-time momma. She is very attentive and loving to her babies.
There are two girls and four boys in this litter. According to the size Bo, I expect the majority of this litter to be 40-60 lbs. They are all a solid, darker apricot colour at this time; some may fade over the years. It is too early to know what their coats will turn out like at this time, but we will know more when it comes time to choose.
The puppy evaluations are scheduled for August 27th, and their vet appointment is booked for August 28th. Selection can start happening on August 29th. They are 8 weeks old on August 31st and will be ready to go home then.
The theme for this litter is Pain Relief. The backstory is that my sister works in Spiritual Care at Foothills Hospital. She was introducing a therapy dog, Murphy, to one of her patients’ family members who may have been a little hard of hearing. The lady responded, saying, “Now, who would ever call their dog Morphine?” When Dean and I heard this story, we laughed so hard because we both thought the same thing, and said, 'We've got to do a theme on pain control.' After all, dogs can be the balm to many kinds of hurts. It took me a while to settle on some names that just ‘felt better’ than others. Lol. Coming up with names has certainly sparked some great conversation at the table.
The girls are Gabby (Gabapentin), and Morphy (Morphine). The boys are Cody (Codiene), Endo (Endorphin), Ty (Tyenol), and Mo (Motrin).
We are taking more deposits for either Posie’s or Goldie’s litter. Please contact me if you are interested in one of these puppies.
