This is Dexter! He is nowover 1 year old, (born May 13 2008), and is an Australian Multi-Gen from Spring Creek Labradoodles, Legend x Virtue litter.
He weighs 45 pounds already, I think he's done growing. Bigger than both mom and dad by far, but that's fine with me!
He knows sit, stay, down, shake hands, roll over, come, IN BED, and, his favorite, GO-GET-IT! Heel, we're working on... not so much yet. He also now can catch a frisbee, tennis ball, treats, and whatever else is thrown his way.
Absolutely LOVES to swim, especially if there's a stick involved!
Wow! Dexter looks so grown up now! His coat looks like it has a lot of curl now, or maybe it just looks that way in the pictures... Is that his permanent coat then? Did you have him shaved or cut? I'm anxious to get Chloe groomed, she really needs it. It'll definitely be in the next month. I wonder how fast before it starts growing back... He looks great!
Dexter's getting big! Very cute boy - the new pics are great! It's crazy how fast they're growing, isn't it? I take it you haven't taken him to get his first haircut yet? I'm still researching groomers in my area - Chloe could really use a trim... As much as I hate to have it done :)
We took her to Petsmart to be groomed a couple of times, but I wasn't impressed with them at all. She's only had the hair trimmed around her eyes once, we haven't actually had her coat trimmed yet. I'm actually a bit nervous to have it done. Are you looking to just trim his coat or have it cut short? I prefer the longer, shaggier look so I'm really aprehensive about having it cut! We brush her every other day, but so far the matting is very minimal.
So, I think my mom has decided to get a puppy from Spring Creek. It will probably be from AgapexJames Brown litter or if that doesn't work out from the litter that is due in October. We looked at a lot of different breeders and were most impressed with her. Thanks again for your feedback.

Dexter looks a lot like our little boy Crosby. Want to see what he will look like when he get's older just take a look at my photo's. Crosby just turned 1 Sept 11th. He is now 52 pounds.
Thanks for your answer. I got my dog locally and have heard mixed review from various people about shipping dogs in general. But, that is good to hear that you had a good experience with it.
