Wayne and Janice ,

Happy  Birthday (7-19-06) to (Brownie) Oliver Wilson! He is 1 year old and weighs 60#. We can't believe how much we love him. He is just great and he always puts a smile on our faces. So active and very well behaved.He loves all his chew toys, loves to catch and take walks. He loves to be outside and never leaves his yard even when the neighbors are out with their dogs. He went swimming in Lake Winnebego  at the cottage...  With all this activity  we do find him taking his share of naps also. The next time we are up there we will stop in to say hello. Here are new pictures for you to post to the website.

Hello Janice & Family.......
we wanted to give you an update on our new life with "Charlee Girl".......she has been such a wonderful addition and we are impressed by her more and more each day!  Now we understand "first hand" why there aren't any negative reviews on this breed.  They truely are the "perfect" breed for a family like ours.  She is fun and playful when we want her to be but can also be very calm and relaxed and she takes discipline very seriously!  We thought it would take us most of the summer to get her trained and comfortable here at home but in just a couple of weeks we have her on such a great schedule and she is trained in so many areas.  First of all she could "sit" and "shake a paw" on command within a few days of having her at home, and now she can "stay", "retrieve", and "lay down" on command as well.  She is also crate trained which is just great and the minute we open the crate door and put her in she is quiet and does NOT bark or whine except for her very first night home but we knew she was just missing her litter mates.  Another thing that people are amazed at is that she is now trained to go "p" and "poo" in a designated part of our backyard.  We made a rectangle area and put gravel and sand and after persistance on my part she is now eliminating in this spot completely on her own!!!  It took one month and we are THRILLED :)  She will run around the yard and when she has to go she runs over to the spot on her own and goes!  The area is appoximately 3 feet by 2 feet and we make sure it is clean everyday.  We have not had any "accidents" in the house now for about a week!!!  She LOVES her Nylabones and Milkbone Treats a couple times a day and she adores our children.  She is so incredibly gentle toward them and our vet is very impressed at how quickly she has learned to not "mouth" at them or when they play with her.  Your advice to gently squeeze her mouth and say "No Bite" has worked like a charm, so THANK YOU for that!  We have also found that a spray bottle with water works great for teaching her to stay out of my flower gardens......we squirt her in the face and the mist is enough to make her go lay down and leave the flowers alone!  People go crazy about how she looks, they love her coloring and her coat style and many have mistaken her for a "Golden Retriever"!  I have already given out your number a few times!  I am definitely the one who she considers the one "in charge" since I am at home everyday with her however I am surprised at how well she listens to the kids commands!  Her intelligence and loving nature are definitely what we brag about most.  She is gaining weight and changing a little now.  She also tolerates having a bath and blow drying and brushing perfectly.  She is in many ways like a doll since she lays there so nicely and lets us do what we need to with her!  The Vet has told us many times that she looks "great" and is in excellent health and everybody at the Vet office adores Charlee!  There are only a few Goldendoodles around our area so she gets alot of attention from people that's for sure :)  We are planning on taking her up to the cabin this week and we will see how she will make out in the lake and hopefully swim to fetch a stick!  We enjoy every minute with our new puppy and we are very grateful to have chosen YOU as our breeder!  It was well worth the 8 hour each way drive!  We really enjoyed driving through Wisconsin and the gorgeous landscape.  We will always treasure meeting all of you and Charlee's parents and brothers and sisters too!  Now that we have Charlee, it is so hard to imagine a life without a dog!  After just one month with her in our family, our children have bonded so deeply with her and she has enriched our lives so much we can't imagine how much we will love her after years together........all she wants to do in life is make us happy and SHE DOES!  That waggy tail of hers makes us smile and brings unending joy to our household.  We Love Our Charlee Girl and we THANK YOU for providing her with such "great roots".  Every puppy you raise with love makes such a difference in the world and every family you connect with a dog changes their lives forever.  The Mueller's work hard and in the end........MANY happy dogs and MANY happy families, so it is all WORTH IT!  Keep up the wonderful and healthy breeding Janice, Wayne and Wendy!    We thank you from the bottom of our dog-lovin' hearts........

PS....if you get time we would enjoy having some contacts from Charlee's litter mates so we could share stories and pictures!  Thank you and we will be in touch regularly.  I haven't been well again lately so sorry it took so long for some photos and updates!  Love to all of you!  Nikki

My Fiance & I purchased a female doodle from you on 4-7, that we named Zoe & we wanted you to know that she is absolutely wonderful!!! We love her to death & so does everybody she meets. She already knows sit, stay, laydown & she's trying very hard to remember to go potty outside, but sometimes she forgets.
