🐾 BIG NEWS FROM THE DOOD RANCH 🐾

If everything goes according to plan, this could be our biggest puppy season yet!

Both Honey and Peaches have been bred, and we will be confirming pregnancies by ultrasound on June 26.

🍯 Honey’s First Litter

This will be Honey’s first litter, and we couldn’t be more excited to see what she produces. Since this is her first I am unsure of her patterns, so there are still a few unknowns until ultrasound confirmation. If her patterns are similar to Peaches, then they have the same due date😂!

🍑 Peaches’ Final Litter

This litter will be especially meaningful, as it will be Peaches’ final litter. Having raised several incredible litters from her, I know her patterns well. Her due date is August 3rd.

✨ Potentially TWO litters arriving in August 2026.

Once pregnancies are confirmed through ultrasound, families on our waitlist will have the opportunity to reserve early pick positions. Most reservations are finalized after puppies are born and genders are confirmed.

We already have several wonderful families waiting, but two litters means more opportunities for families to welcome a Dood Ranch puppy.

If you’ve been thinking about adding a Labradoodle to your family, now is the perfect time to submit an application and join the waitlist.

🌿🐾 THE GREENHOUSE LITTER IS OFFICIALLY CLOSED 🐾🌿

With one final delivery this Sunday and one sweet pup staying back with us for a little extra boarding time, we’re officially wrapping up our Greenhouse Litter.

Every puppy from this litter found their forever family, and watching them grow, learn, play, and bloom never gets old for us. It’s just the best!

THANK YOU to every family who trusted us with such a huge decision. We never take that lightly 🤍

✨ Looking ahead:
Our next litter is expected in August, and the waitlist is already beginning to fill. Families who have completed applications are contacted first once puppies are born, so if you’ve been thinking about joining The Dood Ranch family, now is the time to get your application in. 🌾🐶

We hate when our house gets quiet, and we’re already looking forward to the next group of little paw prints ❤️

Last park day together 🐾💛

Before the puppies started heading home last Friday, we squeezed in one final park run together as a litter. And honestly… these are my favorite days.

The wrestling.
The zoomies.
The confidence-building.
The figuring out how to interact with the world and each other.

People sometimes think socialization only means meeting strangers, but littermate play is a huge piece of healthy puppy development too. They learn boundaries, confidence, communication, frustration tolerance, and how to recover when something feels new or overwhelming. All while thinking they’re just out there having the best day of their lives 😂

Watching them run together knowing some were only days away from leaving was equal parts sweet and heartbreaking. This litter has been such a fun little crew.

Now they’re starting new adventures with their families, and I can’t wait for them to meet 💛

Petco field trip 🐾💛

One thing we believe strongly in here at the Dood Ranch is that puppies need to experience the world together before they head off into their forever homes.

Socialization is so much more than just meeting people - it’s learning confidence, sounds, smells, carts rolling by, automatic doors, new floors, strangers saying hi, and learning that the world is safe.

And honestly? It was a bit of a gong show 😂

A few puppies were convinced they needed to sniff every square inch of the store, while the majority wanted absolutely nothing to do with that plan and preferred to be held the whole time, just watching the chaos unfold from our arms. Different personalities shining through so clearly.

That’s the beauty of doing these outings with littermates. The brave ones help encourage the cautious ones. The cautious ones learn they’re safe. They build confidence together before life changes in a big way.

They also got car treats after, don’t worry. 🚗🍖

Some of these puppies have already left us, and this week a big chunk of the litter heads home too. It’s the bittersweet part of breeding - watching them grow into confident little dogs while also knowing the house gets quieter.

So for now, we’ll soak in the cuteness through videos while we still can 💛

Bringing home a puppy shouldn’t feel overwhelming.

But for a lot of people, it does.

There’s so much advice online that puppy ownership can start feeling complicated before your puppy even comes home.

That’s exactly why I created this.

Not a rigid training system.
Not a “perfect dog” program.

Just a simple, real-life plan based on how we actually raise puppies in our home.

Because most people don’t need more advice.

They need a clear, simple place to start.

If you’re bringing home a puppy soon… start here. 🐾 Link in bio.

Socialization doesn’t happen by accident… it’s built in simple moments like this 🐾

Exploring new spaces, being around kids, interacting with some of our dogs, feeling different surfaces - these are some of the small ways they learn that the world is safe.

At this age, it matters even more and it’s why we keep our puppies until they’re 12 weeks old. They’re still with their littermates, so everything feels secure while they experience something new. We keep it short, positive, and intentional.

Also… previous families joke about our pups and their ball obsession 😂⚽️ Yeah… that’s 100% our fault. And we notice it more and more 😂

If you didn’t spot your pup here, don’t worry, they’ll be in the next group 😉 We rotate them through and only take a few at a time. We’re cool and can handle a lot, but 10 puppies at once… We’re not THAT cool 😂

Just a normal night in the Brantingham home 😂🐾

We wanted to see if they’d let us wrap them like babies…
so we tried it on all 10.

Some seemed to roll their eyes.
Some melted right into it.
And some… were a little too chunky to rock properly 😂

But here’s the part that matters…

Not a single puppy nipped.
Not one showed aggression.
Every single one let us move them, flip them, hold them on their backs…

That kind of flexibility isn’t luck.
It’s how they’re raised.

Handled from day 3.
Raised in the heart of our home.
Used to noise, kids, chaos, and love.

So when life isn’t perfect… they adjust.

The best pups aren’t just cute… they’re built different 💛

Most people think quiet = calm.
But real life isn’t quiet.

It’s vacuums running.
Kids laughing.
Doors opening and closing.
Life happening all around them.

And when puppies are raised in the middle of that… they don’t panic. They don’t shut down. They don’t get overwhelmed.

They learn.

They learn that noise isn’t scary.
That movement isn’t a threat.
That chaos doesn’t mean danger.

So when they go home with you… they’re not trying to survive your world.

They’re already comfortable in it.

This video? No fear. No scrambling. Just confident, well-adjusted puppies who know how to exist in a real home.

That doesn’t happen by accident.

At The Dood Ranch, we don’t raise puppies in kennels. We raise them in our living room, with our kids, in the middle of everyday life.

Because the goal isn’t just a cute puppy…

It’s a dog that fits seamlessly into your family from day one. 🐾

I’ve been MIA on here because it just seems like everything went crazy at once, and then we got hit with the flu 🤦🏼‍♀️

Babies are growing and have the funniest personalities. We’ve started doing small groups for the car, and you can see that some need more practice than others 😂
