Digby


Digby is a Labradoodle bred by Kate Schoeffel from Kate's Family Pets in Condoblin. His parents are Fred, a miniature poodle and Enid, a Labrador. Digby's birthday is 7/7/03. Being the first 'child' Digby went to Puppy PreSchool at Struggletown Veterinary Hospital where I used to pretend I was a Vet Nurse. Then he went to 'big school' and learned about clicker training with Karin at Get S*M*A*R*T Dogs. His younger brother Clancy, was completely neglected. As a result he is a canine delinquent who has only graduated from PreSchool!

You didn't really pretend at being a Vet Nurse...you were very good at it!

Hi Lucy, Followed your link here from the Labradoodle discussion forum. Great site! Just wondering if you can tell me how the 2 dogs compare. I'm looking for a perfect companion for my 1yo and 4yo daughters. I originally wanted a Cavalier but I am minding one of Kate's Labradoodles for a friend at the moment and I have fallen in love! Does Clancy moult a lot? and is he more odorous than Digby? From the Cavs I have met I would assume that they are less easily trained than the labradoodle- do you think this is so? Thanks for any insight you can share. Su

Hi Lucy, I'm Tanner's mum, he's Digby's half brother ! Somewhere I've got a picture of his dad, Fred - we went to Condobolin to pick Tanner up and got photos of his mum and dad. I'll have to post it somewhere for you to have a look :)

I really enjoy your site. Sometimes it is purely because of the interests with chooks and so on and sometimes because your faith is inspiring and gives me hope when I feel down. Anyway, reading through more of "About Us'. I just love Digby! I should have taken Angus to puppy school. He is a Spoodle! I am sure he and Digby would be great mates :)
