Sounds to me like you are doing everything right. There is a cute LD in Illinois if anyone is interested

Sounds like you have done all the checking necessary, and you will be getting a great doodle! Can't wait to see pics. Iams is not the best food, but if you do switch, just do it slowly, gradually adding the new food. Congratulations.

Midnite sure is a cutie!! Is anyone else not getting email notifications?

First, I have to ask. Is anyone else not getting the email notifications?? I have to go back and find posts to even answer. I would look for a food that does not have any corn in it. Look for a food that has meat or fish as the main ingredient. A lot of people have good luck nutro natural choice, or nutro ultra. That one is a holistic food, and seems to be good. Not sure if you have a costco by you, but people also feed their doodles kirkland chicken and rice, or lamb and rice. It is a good quality food for a lower price. Also, remeber that the first few days, Belle won't know which door to use to go potty, so you will have to show her the door you want her to use. Best of luck to you and Belle, and let us know how it all goes.

Hi Chesterpal. I sent you a private message about romps. Let me know if you get it.

Good luck!! Were there a lot of applicants on him??

Things all do work out! Why on earth would someone give up such a good boy?? How old is he?

 

[Shannon(Phantom-Star)]

I thought the guy looked young. Poor baby! He's not on petfinder anymore, so that's a good sign. At least no more people will call on him.

Changing a name at that age is very easy!! Just change it, and treat him when he comes. I have changed names at a much older age. Sounds like you do have a good chance with your husband working out of the home. I am sure that is a good selling point for any rescue. I would call the shelter tomorrow to see if they made a decision on him. I think they took him off petfinder because they were getting too many calls. The doodles in Illinois never last in the shelter. Don't you just love the neutering already being done?

 

[Shannon(Phantom-Star)]

You know, some people just don't even bother to try and find a home for any of their pets. They would rather have someone else do their work for them, and to get rid of them because they are too big, is just crazy!!!

 

[Shannon(Phantom-Star)]

That is just too funny! Poor Chester probably had no idea what to make of the whole thing. I am sure they would make a great team. I know my boys love eachother! I am not surprised at any of the reasoning anymore. There is a LD in a shelter in CA and he is there because the owners could not keep him in his yard, and now this time they did not want to pay to get him out of the shelter.

No, apparently they don't, and they just let him run outside unsupervised. Not sure if they had an invisible fence or anything, but if they have no boundaries, they will run. I am sure they just did not care, and he is a real cutie too.
