A couple days ago, I mentioned that it's going to be a crazy winter around here, and I wasn't kidding!  We'll have a litter of puppies from Karma and Hudson, a litter of puppies from Reo and Hershey and then right on the heels of those litters, Tulip will be giving us her last litter of gorgeous Australian Labradoodle puppies!

We are super excited about Tulip's last litter for a couple of reasons.  First we are so excited to see what this litter will bring us.  Her puppies always have the most gorgeous color.  Some are dark apricot, some caramel and some red.  We're hoping there will be a big red girl! The second, and most important reason we are excited is simply that we are happy for Tulip that she will be retiring.  She has been an amazing mother, but it's time for her to enjoy chasing balls instead of feeding puppies!  

Tulip, or Tuli or Schmoo as we call her, has the most amazing Australian Labradoodle temperament.  She is gentle, caring, attentive and obedient as well as being playful, spunky and super athletic.  My hope for her is that we will have her certified as a Therapy dog and she can visit children and adults who will benefit from her soft, loving nature!

Here are pictures of some of Schmoo's past puppies:

A year and a half ago, this little chocolate drop came to us from Heidi and Roy at Pine Lodge Labradoodles.  We had adored her from afar for weeks, anxiously awaiting each puppy picture and video.  We had no idea just what an impact she would have on our lives.  To say she is special is an understatement.  She is tender, sweet, comical, playful, athletic,  intelligent AND beautiful.  Her eyes  are thoughtful and caring, and simply amazing.

She answers to many names....Oreo, Reo, Superfast and my favorite name for her, Smushy.
In the months to come, she will gain yet another new name.  She will be "Momma"!  We are so very excited about seeing little "Reo" puppies running around!

This week, Reo will be bred to Tampa Bay's Latte' Macchiato, aka Hershey.  They will surely produce some beautiful babies.  Some will be Chocolate and White Parti, and some will be Chocolate with white mismarks, some may be solid chocolate.  We're hoping some will have the same markings as Reo, which is called Irish Spotting.  Her dad, Ranger, has produced many puppies with these markings so we hope Reo will take after her dad.  And we're also hoping that Reo passes on her amazing temperament that is so important in the Australian Labradoodle Breed.

Make sure to check back for updates and confirmation of pregnancy, but for now, here are some pictures of my Smushy and a pic of Hershey!

We've got a lot going on here at Calypso Breeze Australian Labradoodles!  We currently have three litters of exquisite Australian Labradoodle puppies.  Some are going home in the  next couple of weeks, but we'll still have a beautiful litter of cream and apricot puppies until early November.  After that, we'll have about three weeks to catch our breaths before the next litter comes along.  It's going to be a very crazy winter around here as we're expecting three litters all pretty close together again!

Karma has been bred to CVL Hudson and should be blessing us with her last litter in early December.  We expect beautiful medium-sized fleece puppies in apricot and cream.  Karma has given us some amazing puppies in the past and we're excited to see what this pairing will bring!  Here are a few pictures of Karma's past puppies.
