I got an e-mail this evening from one of my puppy buyers telling me that Joey, a F1 Labradoodle from my kennel, made the newspaper.

Isn't he a cutie

Ahhhhh!!!
You must be so proud, way to go Doodle,good reader.

Dalton Allison, 8, reads to Joey, a Labradoodle owned by Barbara O'Conner, at the Dog Day Afternoon program, Thursday Feb. 15, at the Joplin Public Library. John Hacker | JoplinDaily.com
Raven's brother, Dalton, 8, said he enjoyed reading to two dogs, a Labradoodle named Joey, owned by Barbara O'Conner, and a Golden Retriever named Lucky, owned by Teddy Steen.

"I love dogs, and I love reading to them. That's why I've got two dogs," Dalton said. "I read to Joey and to Lucky. The fun thing about Joey is (that) he is a big dog, and he listens a lot. The thing about Lucky is that he listens a lot, and there are a lot of pictures in the books that are just like him."

[Dream Dog Mom]

That is wonderful, He is a gorgous dog, just the reason I fell in Labradoodles myself, and reading with children, it doesn't get any better than that.

I know someone who is beaming with pride!! Congratulations on bring such a charmer into someones life!!! :lol:

It is so nice when your buyers do such wonderful things with their Doodles. Joey goes to nursing homes and hospitals, he's quite the guy and brings lots of smiles to many people and children. And, yes, I am busting with pride :wink:

 

[Guest]

Congratulations! Joey is gorgeous! You should be proud! Think of all the lives you have touched!

 

[Chesterpal]

What a great story. Could Joey sitting with Dalton be anymore huggable?

 

[MaxandMe]

That picture has so much expression in it. I can almost hear that cute happy boy reading aloud and almost imagine JOEY the doodle going"' Shhhh he's reading my favorite part now MOM." :wink:

There's something that keeps me coming back to view that picture over and over. I lov it!

 

[Dextersmommy]

Di, Joey is gorgeous and you must be the proudest mommy around. What a great program too! It seems every civic program where dogs are invovled is a big hit. And since doodles are such natural stars, of course they should be heading up the show!

 

[dixiedi]

His look is so intense and serious like he knows he has a job and his whole purpose is to do that job and do it well We breeders have the best and most rewarding job in the world. It doesn't get much better than this :wink:

Diane! Joey is stunning! What line is he from???
Wow! Aren't you thrilled? You must be!
Congratulations, my friend! This good publicity helps to show the world that Labradoodles are not only here to stay, but that they are exceptional pets!
I am so happy for you!

Thanks Jac, Joey is an F1 out of my Pooh and Johnson from 4 Paws. He's 2 1/2 years old and I just love his look. He is a half brother to my Winnie and Hannah. Thanks for asking

 

[Jac]

Wow! What a great look, doesn't look like our average F1 dogs!
Even better than looks, though, is the fact that he has a great temperament and is very intelligent...you have done well!

 

[kim26]

That is fabulous Diane! Joey is a gorgeous dog!

 

[dixiedi]

If all F1's looked like Joey, I wouldn't even bother with any other generation. I get so many people wanting that look. If I could only clone 'em :wink:

 

[Jac]

I can see why! He really is a beautiful dog...perfect! (And...do I see a liver colored nose??!!! If so.....I WANT ONE!!!)

 

[Raleighsmom]

Joey is one handsome Doodle! I would be thrilled if Raleigh grew up to look like him! You must be so very proud! Do you know if any of his siblings turned out like him?
Kathie,Raleigh & Molly

 

[dixiedi]

Yes, his siblings all look like him. 3 of them come to our Doodle Romps each year, I'm hoping that Joey will be able to make it this year since it's going to be in Howard.
Here's 2 of his siblings:

Jac, if you want liver noses, I can get you liver noses
