This past week was a busy one - seven families submitted applications for a puppy, we welcomed three families to visit, and two more deposits were made plus ongoing negotiations with another breeder to take one of our girls, resulting in all the girls now having been reserved.
That means only the two boys are left - both are solid chocolate, and one has a bit larger white spot on his chest while the other has just a very small white line that won't show much once his fur grows out. One of them is still the biggest of the pups, while the other (slightly more vocal dood) has now slipped in rank from second to third largest, with one of his caramel parti sisters having surpassed him slightly in the weight department.
Those looking to take a pup who have a preference for a female should bear in mind that with early neuter, the male Labradoodles end up with termperaments little different than the females. Their hormones never get a chance to kick in, so they never really get a chance to figure out that they're guys. So the issues of heightened dominance or aggression and territory marking that people often associates with male dogs are simply not an issue. The males are just as sweet, gentle, loving and fun-loving as the females. I'm sure any of our previous puppy buyers who's taken a male would be able to attest to that!
