Oodles of Fun: June 2011

About Me!

I'm Angel, a purebreed poodle. I know the book is called Poodle AND Doodle, but this blog should be all about ME. I'm the true star in the family, you know. I go every few weeks to the groomer to get beautified, and I do my nails every morning. The other dogs don't even go to the groomer. Mama Donna adopted me after my first owner's cat tried to treat me like a mouse. After getting shook around a few times, I was ready to leave. At the time I only weighed about three pounds. I'm up to about twelve pounds now, so that makes me a lightweight in this house, but I'm still the boss. Just ask me.

My owner, Donna Shepherd, wrote the book Poodle & Doodle. It's about me (of course), but I have to admit, just as much about the 'new' dog, a labradoodle. In the book, she is a 'he' named Scruffy, but in real life, her name is Sadie. Just her head is almost as big as I am!

Poodle and Doodle is published by Guardian Angel Publishing. The publisher has a page for Poodle & Doodle. Click HERE. It's on sale on Barnes & Noble. Click HERE to order! To order directly from the publisher or get the eBook, click HERE.

This Poodle Love the Smoosh Faces

Every chance I get, I sneak into Leah's room to play with Cash. When we get tired, I get up on the bed and sleep side by side with the BT's. You'll notice that Cash is on his favorite blanket.

I look a lot different, but since we are more the same in size, we get along really well. Just goes to show that even though dogs (and people!) sometimes look very different from one another, they can still get along. Ruff!

Boston Terrier Fun

The first Boston Terrier in this video looks a lot like my BT brother, Cash. Mama Donna says she loves his 'smoosh face.' Of course, she give me lots of kisses on my much longer nose!

Mama Donna's Friend with Her Poodle

Mama Donna goes to church with Miss Betty. Here she is with her 'baby girl,' Taffy.

Mama Donna Is a Turtle?

For Oodles of Fun that has nothing to do with dogs, check out this video of "Whispering Wally" called "The Trouble with Treasure." Mama Donna plays Torrie, a tiny sea turtle. Torrie might even be smaller than I am! Based on characters developed by Kevin S. Collier and Kristen Collier. Isn't Torrie cute? Not as cute as an oodle, but still cute.

TORRIE THE SEA TURTLE learns many lessons from her guide and mentor Wally the whale in their story time adventures. Torrie represents the curiosity of youth in all of us as well as the drive to explore and discover new things in a unknown environment. So, it's good to know that the young at heart with a huge guardian like Wally the whale can experience wonderful discoveries in the oceans with safety and security.
