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!

Waiting for a Crumb to Fall


Posted by Picasa
We wait by the table and occasionally, we get a bit of human food. Mmmm-mmm-good!

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!

Mama Donna's Friend with Her Poodle

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

Amelie Loves Poodle & Doodle

Today Mama Donna got a note from 2 1/2 year old Amelie's mama that said how much Amelie loves her Poodle & Doodle book. Here's what she said:

"Amelie is currently obsessed with the Poodle & Doodle book. She cracks up at the dogs drinking out of the toilet page and likes to show it to Jack (her dog) and say, "Look Jack, follow me, pay attention - dogs don't drink from the potty!" 

She also likes to wear a hat while she reads it because the girl in the book wears one at the tea party and she thinks that's funny, too." 

Here's a picture of beautiful Amelie wearing her tea party hat.
Amelie, I'm so glad you like my book and Mama Donna is, too! You're right to teach Jack not to drink form the toilet. Yuck! I would never!

She also likes to recreate scenes in the book - like the one where the poodle gets under Scruffy to keep from getting wet when it rains.
Amelie has so much reading her book. That makes my tail wag with happiness!

Tucker, the Singing Schnoodle



I always knew my relatives were talented - even distant ones like Tucker who warms up and reads music.

Oodles of Poodles

Pictured above are Mandy and Cassie. Both have gone on to Doggy Heaven, but they live forever in Mama Donna and Leah's hearts.

Hide the Chocolate from Sadie!

Did you know that chocolate is one of the most lethal foods a dog can eat? Now, I'm too little to reach the counter, but Sadie can. Mama Donna and all the family have to be really careful where they leave their candy, cookies, cakes, and anything else with chocolate in it. Sadie has been known to open a box of donuts, remove one, and close the lid afterwards leaving no one the wiser – until they go for that chocolate crème doughnut and it's nowhere to be found!

Here's a link to an article on chocolate poisoning. Check it out – especially if you have a big dog like Sadie!

Big Paws Only - Everything Big Dogs

Eatin' from the Big Bowl

Cash is waiting patiently in line for his turn to eat. He and I are eating the big dog (Sadie) food. We sneak into the laundry room to grab a few bites every chance we get. Shhh....don't tell Sadie!
