- About Me:
- My husband and I were born and raised in San Diego (Point Loma) and we have two adult children. Our daughter moved back to California with her husband 5 years ago after going to college and living in NYC for 10 years. They currently live in San Jose with Luna, their 4 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback. Our daughter and her husband have a beautiful baby girl. She is named Eowyn Casey Ahern!!! (Pronounced A-O-WYN). She just turned 1 year old on Easter Sunday! Our son and his wife along with our three grandsons (9, 7 & 5) and our 2 year old granddaughter live in Dover, MA just outside Boston. Gracie Doodle has filled a big hole in my heart that I have for my grand children living so far away. She has been the best possible therapy and makes me so happy and at peace with the distance. She makes my "TAIL WAG" all the time!!
- What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!
- I have an adorable F1 GoldenDoodle named Gracie. She will be 6 years old this May 18th. Her mother is an apricot standard poodle and father a golden. She is very tall (27") and lean and currently weighs 74 lbs. The sweetest and smartest dog there ever was. Totally human, sleeps in our bed right between us and is included in everything we do. I just can't imagine what life was like before we had her!! Gracie is obsessed with balls...preferably tennis balls! She likes to track them in the air and then with perfect timing, jump up and catch them. She could do this for hours if we let her. We have to keep her balls hidden when we are not supervising her because she likes to roll them in her water bowl and then take them in the dirt and roll them around until they are packed with mud...along with her paws and nose. She is a real Tomboy! Loves the water and stands in her water bowl when she drinks. Gracie is the happiest dog I have ever encountered. She is always smiling and kissing. She has a great sense of humor and is a goof ball. Very alert and nothing gets past her. She doesn't miss a thing! We take her with us every where we go and when we are traveling by car she goes with us. The pet friendly hotels we stay in love her and you wouldn't even know we had a dog in our room!! She keeps my husband and I laughing all the time and after all these years we still can't keep our hands off of HER!!! Hugs and kisses all the time!

GRACIE DOODLE'S HAPPY DAY!!

FINALLY…it has been a long 10 months but finally I can come up for air and say that Gracie Doodle is back to her old self, healed and happy!! YAY It has been a long tearful journey but now the light at the end of the tunnel is burning bright and our sweet, silly, goofy, loving and happy girl has returned to us. We are now down to 5 mg of Prednisone every other day for the next month and then she is off the medication completely. The vet said that she has a 70% chance that the…

Boy, I am on a roll today. If Adina approves my blogs, I will have posted three today. All on mixed emotions. But this one I couldn't be prouder of. This is my daughter's new "start up" company that she has completely dreamed of and is now bring to life. She was successful launching and managing Squidoo for 7 years so I have faith in her.

Cathy C. Bennett said… Hey there Nancie - What a beautiful thing for you to say. I love writing about the boys and to know that there are people out there enjoying what I write really warms my heart - so thank you so much! Harley is doing much better, actually he's back to his ole self! He spent the weekend nights cuddled up in my bed, since DH was out of town, and I think that was the best prescription ever! Doodles are so much more than dogs (to me), I just love having them in my life. BTW - Gracie has the most gorgeous face - ever! Take care, thanks again for reading and have a doodle*licious day! Cathy and her boys!

GINI LISANTI said… - THANX for accepting my Friend Request, Nancy. Your photos & cards are gorgeous...and Gracie is a beautiful, adorable girl!!! She's big like Cody, it appears. For some reason Cody comes across in most of his photos, looking much smaller than he really is....and it drives me crazy, 'cause I like his size to show!
