Happy third birthday to Harmony and the other pups of Topaz's first litter!

Harmony's second litter just went home in late March, so at the age of three she is the proud mama of 14 beautiful babies (two litters of seven each).
 
Sweet Harmony
We have also had the pleasure of seeing Brio and his family fairly regulary and Rusty a couple of times at our Doodle Romps. Darwin lives in Toronto and Sheeva in Montreal, so they haven't been able to join us. :-(

The sixth puppy in this litter, Celeste, was stillborn after a difficult attempt at delivery. We hope you are looking down on us from puppy heaven!!


All the best to the five of you! Happy birthday and enjoy those doggy cupcakes (or whatever your humans give you to celebrate!)a

Garnet's baby Arial, from her second litter, was sold to Scotia Doodles and has had a couple litters there, meaning Garnet, age 6 1/2, is a grandma too!

Galena’s baby Kiera was sold to Barksdale Labradoodles in Mississippi and has had a couple litters for them, so Galena, age 5, is also a grandma.

Phoenix’s boy Cumin was sire to Galena’s third litter, so Phoenix, age 4, is paternal grandma to those six babies (and Amore is their maternal grandma)!

Topaz, age 4, is grandma to Harmony’s puppies-to-be, which are expected to arrive in mid-June!

And Amore, age 8, mom to Garnet, Galena and Topaz, is obviously Grandma to all their puppies and great-grandmas to all their grand-puppiws!

No flowers or chocolate for these mamas - but we'll give ours lots of snuggles and a good long walk!


Happy 2nd birthday Harmony, Brio, Rusty, Darwin and Shiva

This was Topaz's first litter (and one only a few born on an even-numbered day)
Mama Topaz
 Here at DragonRam Doodles, we remember this as the first litter in which we lost a puppy during delivery. Topaz was having a hard time delivering one pup, and try as I might, I couldn't get a hold of it to help it out. By the time the pup finally emerged fully, it was no longer alive. That was a sad day when we lost Minuet.


But we don't want to dwell on that - instead, we would like to remember and celebrate the five beautiful pups that made it out whole and hale and hearty, including our lovely Harmony who is going to become a mama herself in about a month. And Brio, the lovely, lively boy who always looks like a prince (hats off to Shila for the wonderful grooming!). And Rusty Rococo, who lives with his DragonRam brother, Hershey Crispin. We haven't seen Darwin Caprice or Shiva Piccolo since they went home, as they both live Far Away, but we're glad we're able to keep in touch with the other three from time to time. 
Harmony - all grown up!
 Rusty Rococo, Harmony, Darwin Caprice, Brio and Shiva Piccolo - we wish you all a great day and a wonderful year to come!

Happy birthday Harmony, Brio, Shiva, Darwin and Rusty

You’re one year old today!

These were Topaz’s first puppies – and within a short while they’ll be joined by her second litter, due in about 10 days!


Harmon is one!
We are using a musical theme for the names we give Topaz’s puppies, which have now been joined by the new names some of the families gave them:
  • Harmony
  • Brio
  • Darwin Caprice
  • Rusty Rococo
  • Shiva Piccolo
Harmony is a regular Doodle Romp attendee, and one of our breeding prospects. Next spring maybe we’ll be welcoming her first litter, who knows? We’ve also had a chance to meet Brio a few times with his family at a couple of Romps. We’d love to see Rusty again, as he’s close enough to attend, though he and his family lead a busy life. Shiva lives in Montreal and Darwin in Toronto so the chances of meeting up with them are rare, though pictures are always appreciated.

Happy first birthday! Many spring romps through the fresh green grass!

DragonRam Harmony: Guardian Home needed!

We are still seeking a Guardian Home for our sweet girl, Harmony. She is a lovely black-and-white parti girl. Her spots are very balanced on her white fur, so "Harmony" just seemed to suit her (we used a musical theme for this litter). I don[tusually post the names we give the puppies as people like to choose their own names. Howwever, with our breeding pups, we will continue to use the name we chose, which is their registered name, even if the the family chooses another name (as they often do). We then add the name chosen by the family to the registered name. 

 


This is the description of Harmony from her temperament evaluation done last Monday:

CAUTIOUS, SENSIBLE, SWEET
Harmony is a gentle and thoughtful pup. She is shy with people at first, but warms up quickly and becomes quite social. She seeks familiar humans for safety and security. Once comfortable she is very playful with humans and other dogs. She will enjoy having a “safe place” in her house where she can be alone (such as an open crate). Rushing harmony to socialize, confront or bond would be a mistake and could cause her to flee. She analyzes new people and situations and should be encouraged to be brave, but not rushed. She is highly food motivated which will be excellent for training and desensitization.


To be a Guardian, you need to live within about 30 km of Ottawa and be willing to work with us for several years while we breed this lovely girl. You provide the loving family home and cover ordinary pet costs while we handle all breeding-related appointments, arrangements and cover all those expenses. She normally comes to us to have her puppies and you are always welcome to visit her and the pups during that time. We breed her up to four times, then she is spayed and becomes your forever family pet. Because you are working with us, you pay nothing for her; your "costs" is the willingness to make her available to us and commit to working with us during her breeding career.

If this type of arrangement might interest you, please contact me at roma@dragonramdoodles.com or 613-552-3066.
