Emma Brown Dawg is a year and a half brown Labradoodle, who came to
our home last spring, 2006. Em's a witty, smiley girl who LOVES
people (even little ones), gets along well with all dogs (even the
not-so-nice ones,)
enjoys swimming with a bright orange life vest, is an excellent
catcher, and rides with her head far out of the car window while
wearing bright pink "doogles" -- dog googles. We call this act
"spreading Emma joy" -- we can't help but notice how many people
look, smile, wave and laugh when they see Emma flying by. People
have stopped their cars to watch, snapped pictures with their cell
phones, and we even had one lady get out of her car to tell us that
Emma in her doogles was the cutest thing she has ever seen. Emma
doesn't seem to realize what the fuss is all
about, and is just happy to have people talk to her! We get comments
from all kinds of dog experts about her intelligence and sweet
disposition -- the vet, her dog walker, groomers, the folks at her
doggie day care, and her overnight kennel -- all say the same
wonderful things about her, and how she is one of their favorites.
As any proud
doggie momma would admit, I don't find this surprising at all! I
keep teasing my husband that Emma needs her own dog, and trust me --
if we decide to get another one, it most certainly will be a doodle
from Buckeye Kennels. However, we can't imagine any other dog being
as great as our Emma. That said, if the new pup had even half of
Emma's charm, personality and wit -- it would still be a great dog.
A word about Buckeye Kennels -- I have to tell you why we choose you
in the first place. Your place was the ONLY kennel that encouraged
visitors -- on your website, and you reiterated the invitation
when we spoke on the phone. You needed virtually no notice time,
either -- you said we could drop in whenever. This meant a lot to us
as nervous new dog parents, and spoke volumes about your practices
as a kennel. You made us feel 100% confident in our choice. Thank
you for giving us Emma Brown Dawg! We are fortunate to have her in
our lives.
