"It sounds like Doc and Bailey are still running pretty close to the same. Doc was 62 lbs right at 9 months. Although, this weight was right after we had him shaved down.. He probably lost 5 lbs in hair! LOL! He is 27 in. tall at shoulder."

I have wondered if it would pay for itself though. If its that good, it may save in trips to the groomer. I will look into it for sure and tell Gabby what you recommended.…"

Every dog is different though. Do you have the Les Pooches brush. If you don't it is a life saver. Tell your…"

"Oh Diane, he is so handsome! I love his face, I may take his pic to the groomer next time! His coat does look very similar to Doc's color and texture. What products/brushes have you found work best for Hurley?"
Stephanie & Doc replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming"Thank you all! The groomer did say something that I have been wondering about.. maybe someone here knows. When I attributed his matting to loosing his puppy coat and said that I hoped this one shaving/with more regular brushing after would take care…"

Diane replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming"I admire you for going ahead with the short coat. I just cannot bring myself to do it and yet I know Hurley is going to need a shorter coat for summer. I am taking him to a groomer today just for the usual groom but plan to talk to her…"

Debb, Lucy & Oscar replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming"Ditto to what Linda said. Before taking either of my doodles to the groomer I spend as much time as needed to make sure I can comb through the entire coat tangle-free. That's the only way I can insure having no shaving…"

Melissa Couch replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming":(
I am waiting on a chocolate. After reading all these posts about puppy to adult hair transition.......I am sure dreading it. Is there any precautions to take to avoid having to shave?"
Debb, Lucy & Oscar replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming"I think they do enjoy being shorter (and cooler) in the Summer months. This will be Oscar's 2nd full body cut, actually. His hair grows so fast! He's much curlier now too, than he was before that 1st cut. I'm kind of looking forward…"
Linda Carel replied to Stephanie & Doc's discussion Doc's new do in the group Doodle Grooming"I like the short cut. You may be surprised how fast her coat will grow! Keep combing or brushing, Barb says that you still need to comb out her puppy coat! I keep Loo's coat fairly short, especially in the summer, and I was amazed at the amount…"

I am blessed beyond measure!

Thanks for the friend request! Sorry its taken me a few days to get to around to accepting it... very busy time of the year, not to mention having a puppy to watch... CONSTANTLY. So time consuming... Have a great holiday!

Matt Dodson said… I'm just trying to find out what coat type I want and how I'll be able to select the right pup to fit that coat type. But basically I want one that is similar to my profile picture.

Thanks. I just joined trying to get some more info on Labradoodles. I'm looking to get one coming this summer and I'm trying to find out as much info on them as I can. As far as the doodle on my profile pic, its just one I found on the internet, actually from a place here in Arkansas. So if you have any good info for me just let me know.

Lynda Kamrath said… Yes, Stephanie, Hondo did have a dark brown coat when he was a puppy. He looked very much like Doc. His eyes were a green color. His eyes turned darker and his coat lighter. I tried to find some puppy photos this morning, but the old photos from 2003 were on my old computer and not saved on the hard drive. His mother was a yellow lab and his father a black standard poodle. He ended up 105 pounds. There are many photos of him on my page (the older ones). Definitely the best dog I have ever had!

Hey, Stephanie and Doc - Welcome to the Heavyweights group. Looks like Doc will definitely be a great little heavyweight. Love your photos. Hey, I am going to try to attach a photograph of my late labradoodle who Doc remind me of. He was rather a smooth-haired pup also.

Samina Monakey said… Hi Stephanie, thanks for the warm welcome. Snickers is an absolute joy & total mama's boy! He's been great & my husband, who wasn't too thrilled at the idea of a dog again, is smitten too! That's says plenty!

Linda, Charlie Brown & Beau said… Hi Stephanie ~ you asked what Beau weighs now. He is 14 wks and weigh 15.5 lbs. He is a medium size ALD, so I expect him to weight about the same as Charlie at maturity - probably 38 - 40 lbs. We had a standard poodle in the past and decided it was just easier to travel with a little smaller doggie (not thinking maybe we would have two some days). We are having fun though - and laughing at these two clowns every day. That makes it all worth it! Your new photos are all beautiful.
