Oodles of Fun: pets

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.

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?

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!

Poodle and Doodle with Audio!

Would you like to hear Mama Donna read my book? It's in the November 2011 issue of Guardian Angel Kids (GAK). Click http://www.guardian-angel-kids.com/poodle&doodle.htm to hear my book!

Yet Another Kind of Oodle

Meet Mama Donna's author friend, Janet Ann Collins. She is owned by a bichon frise-poodle mix, sometimes called a 'poochon.' One of her books, Signs of Trouble, is illustrated by Jack Foster, the same great artist who did MY book, Poodle and Doodle. Here is Mama Collins with her book, The Peril of the Sinister Scientist, and her poochon.

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!

A Dog Who Cleans House

Oh, no! I'm sorry Mama Donna saw this. She'll expect me to do this, too.

Angel and Cash on Deck

Well, finally! Cash quit trying to gnaw on my back leg and we could get a bit of sun on the deck today. He has loads of energy and loves to play. Unfortunately, he really likes to annoy me!

FlatButt and Widdle

Can you believe we have another dog at our house? Cash (named after Johnny) is another Boston Terrier. He and Ariel are big buddies. Which is fine, but now they leave me out of the fun sometimes. Cash tries to gnaw on my back leg which irritates me to no end. He is pretty funny though with his big ears, and he hops around like a deer all the time.

When he and Ariel go out, they like to lie in the grass to sun themselves. Now I like to lie on the deck (I don't like getting leaves and grass in MY hair!), but Ariel and Cash don't seem to mind and turn into big puppy blobs when the sun hits them. Drives Mama Donna crazy when she's trying to get them to come in, but usually she lets them be for a while since they love it so much.

Djaingo Saying Grace

Maybe I should be saying grace for the good Eukanuba food Mama Donna give me! Occasionally, she shares her Subway sandwiches and Taco Bell burritos with me, too, but don't tell Sadie and Ariel!

Coloring Page - Where's Chizzy?

Where's Chizzy? Dotty sure looks scared, doesn't she?

Chizzy is the monkey featured on the cover of Topsy Turvy Land (Hidden Pictures Publishing) written by Mama Donna and illustrated by Kevin Scott Collier.

Dotty and Chizzy both make appearances in the other Topsy Tales, too (Chizzy's Topsy Tale, Dotty's Topsy Tale, and Sully's Topsy Tale).

Dancing Dog

This dog must have unbelievable strength in her back legs. I cannot see Sadie (or me!) even being able to do this. She sure looks like she's having fun! And I DO like her outfit.
