Oodles of Fun: oodles of fun

Visit with me, Angel, the poodle, and Sadie, the labradoodle, and all our friends. My owner, Donna J. Shepherd, has even written a book about us! "Poodle and Doodle" is available now on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Guardian Angel Publishing, and lots of other places. Woof!

Bringing home a new pet can be difficult for everyone, especially if there is already a pet at home! Two silly dogs learn a valuable lesson about friendship in this charming, colorful story! Both the antics and the illustrations made me laugh! - Jennifer Reed
"Poodle and Doodle is a fun read-a-loud that celebrates the gift found in differences. Loved it!" - Caroline Pignat, author of Greener Grass, WINNER of the Governor General's Award 2009.

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.

Coloring Page for Valentine's Day - Poodle and Doodle Express

Jack Foster sent Mama Donna a coloring page featuring me. Who else? Oh, and Sadie's in it, too. Happy Valentine's Day!

My Fall Ensemble

Oh, my. Mama Donna has already put me into a sweatshirt. Okay, it is a little chilly, but good grief. Well, I know I look pretty no matter what. Even with my short ears. Notice them? That's what I get for getting food in my long ears!

Mama kept saying 'treat?" so I'd look up. But after a half dozen times, I was onto her. Can't you tell?

Will You Pray for Me?

A prayer request from my Mama Donna:

I have grave news. I took Angel for an ultrasound and she has a tumor in her bladder. It is near the urinary tract which is why she strains to urinate. Because of its location, surgery is not an option. She is going to be on treatment for the rest of her life to try to reduce the size of the tumor. If/when the tumor shrinks, it will give her relief. They are slow-growing, so if the meds shrink it, it won't grow back swiftly. If it does grow too large, it would, of course, block her from urinating at all, which would be terrible. So please pray for my little sweetheart, Angel. She's lying in her little bed a foot from my feet now and is never very far from me. I can't imagine losing her. Thank you so much.

Merry CHRISTmas from Mama Donna, Sadie, and me!

Merry Christmas

Mama Donna's writer friend, Cynthia Reeg, has a different kind of 'Oodle - a Schnoodle - a Schnauzer-Poodle combo named Holly. At least she has poodle in her. That's the important thing! Here she is wishing you a Merry Christmas!

Don't Feed Me This!

Mama Donna doesn't feed me very much 'people food.' She wants me to remain healthy I guess. But I sure do like the taste of potato chips. And my favorite snack is bananas. Every now and then, she still gives me a tiny bite.

If you care about your pet, and I know you do, check out this guide listing foods bad for your pet. Now that Mama Donna read this list, I may get even fewer potato chips!

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.

National Doodle Day

Okay, I know it's a different type of doodle, but I couldn't resist posting that today is National Doodle Day. What is Doodle Day? As part of NF Awareness month, celebrity doodles are available for auction on eBay during May. These doodles have a very important aim: the funds they raise will benefit NF, Inc., an organization dedicated to providing support to individuals and families affected by neurofibromatosis (NF).
