Photos and emails from families who are now the proud owners of our Goldendoodles , Cockapoos and Cocker Spaniel puppies

Below are just some of the emails and photos sent to us by our "extended family", the proud owners of
our Cockapoos and Goldendoodles. We do occasionally breed our Cockers as we are working on our
breeding program. You'll notice some of our beautiful Cocker pups as well!
We are also adding a "Brag" section below the testimonials for our Goldendoodle and Cockapoo
puppy/dog owners. So please send us your favorite photos! We love to watch our babies grow!

We got Cato from Tammy a year ago in March. He is featured on the
webpage because he is so handsome. He is a wonderful pet.
My experience with Tammy has been entirely positive. Her website depicts
a cozy farmhouse in which she brings up her puppies. When we arrived, it
was exactly as depicted. The dogs/puppies appeared to be integrated into
their family structure. I am so pleased with my experience that I have
committed to Daisy Mae's litter of teddy bear golden doodles which isn't
even going to happen until late 2011! I want to know I am getting a healthy
goldendoodle- but I want Cato to be mature and responsible before I add
dog number 2. I can't wait, but I believe it to be worth the wait.

The girls have made a great transition to our family. Our son was home
for college spring break so he got to spend lots of time getting acquainted
before heading back. They have slept through the night every night!
They are in their crate in our bedroom with their pink blankie and I know
it helps to have each other. We've had beautiful weather so they have
been loving their new back garden - esp the big old tree trunks. They have
sniffed and chewed every leaf and twig in the woods and still have more to
explore. Their first check up and shots went well. Thanks again for
breeding such beautiful and good natured pups! I hope that all is well
there.

I just wanted to update you on Linc. He is an absolutely amazing
puppy! On July 16, Linc passed the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy test! His gold
medal arrived today! He has already passed Level I Obedience, and he’
s currently enrolled in agility classes. The trainer we work with is
certified to work with Andrew & Linc all the way through the Service
Dog test, and she said she 100% knows he will be able to pass the
service dog test. The trainer has said that Linc is incredibly smart,
and the sky is the limit with what we can train him to do. He already
knows at least 2 dozen commands & tricks. Linc was extremely easy
to house train, and overall has had very few accidents. Linc and
Andrew are basically inseparable, and definitely best friends.
Thank you so much for this wonderful little member of our family!!

I realize it’s been months and months since we left with our little
Wally but we did want to pass along a few pictures of our cutie. Thank
you so much for giving us such a sweet, happy, fun pup – it’s hard to
believe how grown up he has become already! Everyone who meets
Wally just completely falls in love with him – he is so cute we have
literally had folks driving by our front yard stop to say hi and give him
a belly rub. The pics attached include Wally with his new favorite toy
(a rope lobster courtesy of my sister) and Wally having found an old
blanket in our closet (as you can see, he has perfected the puppy dog
eyes J).

Thanks again and best wishes to you and your family!

Little Bug is the most precious puppy we have ever seen, and over the past two
days we have come to see that she has a matching personality to go with that
adorable face. She has done very well so far. I have slept with her at night,
what a snuggle bug! She licks and nips my ears at 7am ready to go out, and has
been excellent about pottying outside. She has a basketful of all kinds of toys
that she loves to pick and choose from, her favorite is a squeaky purple hippo,
she is so funny! But the best part is that she loves to be loved, and we love
addition to our family
her so much! Thank you, thank you for raising her and allowing her to be such
a special Took her to the vet Monday, for her health check. She got a perfect
bill of health and so many compliments on her cuteness from all the nurses and
doctors!
Thank you,
Allison

Just wanted to update you how things are going in
Lexington. Sophie's great! I just had she and Buddy
groomed today so maybe I
can get a good picture of her so you can see what a
beautiful girl she is. The groomer adores her because
she is sooooooo friendly. I think she also make Betsy
laugh because she (Sophie) is such a goofball.

This isn't the best picture of Sophie but you can see from
it that she's a beauty (and very interested in Buddy's
food). This picture was taken before she had a haircut.
She's my little bear cub.
I'll definitely give you a call the next time I'm up that way
Love,

Daphne and Sophie

The puppy is adorable and she is now 3 months old and we have had her for a
few weeks. She is very playful and cuddly and great with our children ages 8
and 5. She is a perfect addition to our family and seems like a great family
dog. She is playful but does not bark or yip and seems very happy. No
health problems at all.

We had to go out of town recently for a week to Colorado and Tammy took
our puppy back as she was too young for a kennel. Tammy is very loving
with all her dogs and puppies and I think that helps give a puppy a great start
in life. We are so happy with Carriage House and Tammy and feel very lucky
to have our beautiful dog.

Hi Tammy,
I had to share another photo with you. We love Murphy to death and he
makes us laugh every day. Thanks for our sweet Murphy -- we love him a lot!

Jill

I hope things are going well for you. I left you a message on your phone and
just want to make sure you got it...I have a friend who is interested in a
cockapoo. She came over to our house to see Champ and fell in love with
him. I gave her all your info, told her what a wonderful breeder and person
you are. Guess what? She is now on your waiting list!!!

Champ is doing terrific. We are so very happy with him. And Max and
Champ get along terrific. Of course, Rachel couldn't be more pleased. I am
attaching a picture.

Take care.

Just wanted to let you know that we arrived safely home around
7:30 tonight. Sasuke whimpered quite a bit on the way, but then
he took a long nap. We are all having fun with our new boy but
also trying to set some limitations. It's hard because he's so darn
cute! I'll send you some pictures tomorrow. Speaking of
pictures, do you think that you could send me some of the earlier
puppy pictures of our little boy? I am going to create a photo
show/video, it's kind of a hobby of mine.

Thanks again for all of the loving care and affection that you and
your son that made Sauske the great puppy that he is.

Take Care,

Chris

Just wanted to check-in Leia just celebrated her 1st Birthday and
what a big year it has been. She is going to be a BIG SISTER, we are
expecting our 1st child together in about 26 days!! I am due on Oct.
5th. We got engaged on Christmas Eve, found out I was pregnant in
February and got married on May 2nd. It has been a very busy year
for us!! I have included some pictures of Leia from the last year so
you can see how big she has gotten. She loves my belly, I am
always joking that the baby will come out with a paw print on its
forehead, LOL. We love her so much, my dad jokes that we spoil
her and she thinks she is a person… but she is the sweetest dog, so
considerate and lovable it’s hard not to spoil her. Everyone adores
her… even my parents who never let us have a dog in the house
growing up… she rules their house when we visit, even sleeps in
bed with them, that’s when I say to my dad… you say we spoil her J.
My mom is always talking about keeping her… I tell her I know
where you can get one of your own, you can’t have ours!!

Hope all is well with you and your family.

I have included pictures from our wedding (separate email) and
many of her 1st…. day at the pool, trip to Ocean City, MD, boat ride,
and of course 4th of July (she really like fireworks) J

Hi Tammy,
How are you? We are having a ball with "Scooter!" He is so cute
and playful!
Here are a few pictures.
Take care,
Kelly

Hello and Happy New Year!

I hope you guys had a wonderful Christmas and New Years!    I can't
believe another year has passed.

He is very much a people person, loves everyone and always wants to be
right with you.    He recently went on a new adventure with Kevin down
to the barn and loves staring at the goat.     We are truly blessed that he
came into our lives.
Thanks again for everything and for giving us such a sweet and
beautiful dog!

p.s.....I'll send more pictures once I figure out how to load them to the
computer.   His photo album is almost full (o:

Hi Tammy,
I wanted to send you an updated photo of Sydney. She still looks a lot
like Gracie, I think, but with less white on her nose. She's sitting with
my husband, Travis in this photo. She has been such a good puppy! I
have never before had an easier experience with housebreaking, and I
know the way you raised her for her first 8 weeks is the reason why.
So thank you!! She really spreads joy everywhere she goes.

Good morning,

Just wanted to send you an email letting you know how our first week went.

It actually went better than I thought it would go. He has grown to love everyone from the kids, to my parents, to
my sister. We have had a few accidents in the house, but he has gotten the hang of going outside to potty and at
times he even goes to the door to let us know he has to go out. He had his first Vet. appt on June 8th.; everything
went well and the vet says he is doing good.. He LOVES feet, he likes sleeping on them, licking them and trying to
nip at them at playtime...LOL. He likes playing with his rope, sqeaky football and nylabone toy, he sometimes will
sit there and play with the football for a while then back up from it and start growling and barking at it then jump
and dive on it....another funny moment. He has learned the difference between which crate is for sleeping and
which crate is his crate to hang out in during the day. He is absoluty the smartest dog I have ever owned.

PS - I have given a few ladies I work with your website and email address. They are interested in owning a
cockapoo as well.

Thanks again!!!

Hey Tammy!
I hope you are enjoying your summer. I wanted to share some recent pics of Brady with you. He is very
happy and such a wonderful dog. He loves to go on walks to the park and play with the children. He is
also adjusting very well to meeting new dogs and is very well behaved. We are filled with joy because he
is in our life!
I hope all your other pups are doing well.
Love,
Christy

Hi, Tammy. This is Helen. You helped me get the puppy for Ivana last year. That puppy, Lucky, is the
center of their family. Even Mom, who did not want a dog, is just in love with him. I am considering
getting my Granddaughter a puppy. I am wondering if you will have puppies this summer that are not
spoken for?
So, do you think you will have cockapoos this summer that are not spoken for?
I think if a puppy for this children is anything like Lucky, they will be more than happy. Our vet still
raves over how smart Lucky is.
Hope all is well. I have a new grandson as of February, so I am in Granny heaven. Helen M

Hi Tammy!
Little Bug is getting Big! Winnie is doing great all around. Potty training is going well, she can hold it
longer now, so I don't have to constantly watch her and let her out every hour. She has had very few
accidents lately, yay! She is very smart, she can 'sit', 'shake', 'lay down', and 'rollover'. Winnie is also
excellent with small children (my sister's family kept her while we were in Boston last week, so she had
to endure my 3 year-old twin nephews and 5 year-old neice). She is still very cuddly and loving, and I
hope she never outgrows that! At night she sleeps with Steve and me in our king-sized pillow top bed,
she loves bedtime! She likes to snuggle up to my neck and in my hair. Everyone who meets her loves her,
don't be suprised if you get more puppy requests from Raleigh folks!
I need to take some photos with my camera, rather than my phone, cameras are becoming extinct
almost! Anyway, I will send you a photo of Bigger Bug when I get some taken.
Take care,
Allison A.

Hi Tammy,
Here's a few recent pictures. Ziggy is a wonderful dog. He is very smart, tolerant, and mellow - he is
going to make a great therapy dog. We love him!
Talk to you soon,
Jennifer

Hi Tammy,
I just wanted to let you know how much are are still enjoying our "Murphy". Boy does he LOVE this snow
-- and playing with the cats! I've attached a few pictures for you...he looks a little like an abominable
snow"dog" in one of them! Hope you are well!

Hi Tammy -
Just wanted to tell you how happy we are with Rudy(Cody). He is the most adorable puppy and we love
him so much. Everyone that meets him is so taken with him. My vet's office is crazy about him. (They
love his black and tan coloring)
As a matter of fact I gave your name to the vet's office to anyone who might be interested in getting a
cockapoo. Also, there are 2 people who work in the office who might be contacting you for a puppy. I
also gave your name to a neighbor who is looking to get a cockapoo in the spring. Anyway, just wanted
let you know that we are thrilled to have Rudy as a part of our family.
Take care

I don't know what you did but Stella is sooooo good! She came from a good momma and a great breeder.
She listens, and after a few days of carrying her to " her spot" we open the door and she runs out to "her
spot" on her own!
Only two accidents in the house...and they were our problem...since we were slow getting her out. She
sleeps thru the night and loves her "Summer " teddy with heartbeat bear { Found it at target} She is
great with my grand children and they absolutely Love her She plays fetch etc And she has started
chewing shoes...we just make sure she has her toys in plain sight. SHE is an amazing puppy Stella got
her check up at the Vet and passed with flying colors
So I just wanted to say that we thank you and we will recommend you to any one looking for a cockapoo
puppy. She barked her first bark yesterday.....HaHA
Best regards and we are loving Stella Bella,
lana and John N.

Tammy-
I am very sorry it has taken me this long to send you some pictures of Winnie. He is so adorable that we
have tons of them -- but I'm always hoping to get the "perfect" picture. I've attached a few pictures of
him over the past few months. He is such a joy! He is always happy and wagging his tail -- and he is a
wonderful addition to our family. We can't thank you enough for all of the love that you gave him. I will
send some more pictures soon.
Thank you again for everything!
Best,
Leslie

Hi Tammy
Well here it is a year later! Happy Birthday Freddie. The girls had fun picking out new toys for him
today.
He loves to play fetch and chase after bubbles that the girls blow for him in the backyard. Freddie is a
very observant and loyal pup. He knows when its time for my husband to come home and patiently waits
by the door - he knows he will get another walk that way. And it only took a short time for Freddie to get
full run of the house, even while we are out. At night, he keeps our feet warm at the end of the bed.
We just love him.
Hope all is well with you and your family.
truly, Maureen R.

Hi Tammy,

How are you? We hope all is going well for you.

We thought you might enjoy seeing our handsome Romeo. He's 37 pounds now
and his black fur has developed a brown sheen to it in places.

Have a great day -
Maryna, Jonathan and Hudson P.

Hi Tammy,
The vet says Zuri is in perfect health.
Zuri is growing very fast! She's a great puppy!! very smart and a very quick learner. I'm so glad we were
able to have her, she brings a lot of joy into our life!!
Melanie

Hi Tammy,
Mia is now a year old and I thought I’d send you her newest photo. She has been a wonderful companion
and loves to be part of our family. She is very healthy and sturdy. She loves her bed (crate) and goes in
with the door open when she is tired and wants to feel safe. She is the queen of her yard. No rabbits or
varmints are safe there. We have absolutely enjoyed having her.
We hope all is well with you and your family.
Mike and Becky B.

Tammy, I have attached a picture of Zoe at a little over 7 months. She just completed puppy training
and has been spayed (she did go into heat 3 days before she was scheduled to go in so I had to
postpone). Everyone loves her. Zoe is a sweet wonderful dog. I am so blessed. Please let me know when
Belle is having more puppies....Thanks, Pamela

Hi Tammy,

We adore our Daisy, she
really is perfect, or as I tell her she is "pure,puppy perfection!"

She is a real cuddler, loves everyone, very athletic and of course,
stunningly beautiful. She truly is all of these things. We were at the
beach last week and she adores the water and chasing birds, such a happy
way about her. In fact, we should have named her Happy.

Tammy,
Wow – it is hard for us to believe that Jackson just had his first Birthday April 13th! WE could not love a
dog more! I had high hopes of sending pictures sooner but wanted to share a couple with you – better
late than never! We are just so happy with him and love that he has a step-sister just around the corner
(Alli).
Jackson has grown into a dapper young pup and his Dad has trained him very well!
Enjoy!
Rob, Holly, Hannah, Alyssa & Jack!

Hi Tammy!
I hope all is well in VA. Cooper is doing amazing. He's such a wonderful joy in our lives. He's turned out
to be quite the smart cookie too. He's learned to ring a bell to go outside, sit, lie down, give paw, go in his
crate, eat when you say "Eat Coop", and he's learning to heal and roll over. It's been a highlight to my
day to come home everyday and at lunch and walk him and play with him and train him. I've spoiled
him and he does sleep on my bed and lounge on the couch. He's also wonderful with other dogs. He has
lots of play dates.Can you believe he's five months already!
I thought you'd enjoy an update. Here are a few pics as well and these are probably a month old now.
Take care!
Sue B.

Hi Tammy,
I wanted to give you an update on Kate. Can you believe she is now six months old? I took her to the vet
for her checkup She is getting spayed on March 18th and the vet said her adult teeth have come in and
look wonderful. He gave you kudos for excellent breeding!
She is the best natured dog and her tail never stops wagging. People constantly tell me how cute she is
and what a good personality she has. She and the cat get along really well and even have some short
games of chase.
Thank you so much for allowing me to adopt Kate. She brings so much joy to me, my family and friends.
I hope things are going well with you.
Sincerely,
Susan F.

Hi Tammy

Mateo and I just wanted to let you know our first week together has gone really well. I was able to take
the entire week off work to stay with him. He follows me everywhere; it's hilarious. And not to say that I
have a 'puppy Einstein' or anything, but much to my surprise, he has totally grasped the concept of
puppy pads. Today he was playing with a toy in the living room, paused and went to the puppy pad to
do his business, and came back to the living room to play. And this behavior has been consistent. Not to
jinx anything, but I keep waiting for an accident since he's still a baby. But in the mean time ...I brag to
anyone who will stand still long enough.

I've attached a few pics of him. None of them are great since he doesn't stop moving, but I wanted you to
see he is a happy city-pup.

Thank you!

Stephanie
