Happy Monday, peeps! Hope you had a brilliant weekend; I spent mine volunteering at an agility event to benefit a rescue group I’ve long supported. It was a lot like a dog show. On steroids. Whoa, what a fun but exhausting day. I’ll never understand how those pups manage to keep up that pace racing over obstacles and weaving through poles barking while they’re doing it. Talk about sheer joy for their sport that these super-star athletes have! To my great surprise, one of our hospital pet therapists competed and did quite well. More on that hopefully tomorrow.
But before then, let’s start the week out with a bit of a smile. Creating hybrid dogs have become quite the phenomenon these days but it just may have gone over the top with this one. With Bern-a-doodles, Sheep-a-doodles, Labradoodles, Goldendoodles to name a few, there appears to be no shortage of new breeds being created all the time, but this may just be getting out of hand. Seems like some people will breed a poodle to just about anything to obtain a striking new variety of ‘doodle.’ While some combinations make sense, some absolutely do not. Don’t get me started on the clothes they ‘put’ on this doodle!ย Even the guy in the upper right hand corner thinks someone went a doodle too far.
Have a great Monday and week, but don’t forget to smile while you’re doing it.
Live, love, bark! ๐พ

Bet you never thought you’d see a human poodle! ๐
You are pawsitively correct ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐พ
๐คฃ Now thereโs something you donโt see every day. Handy in the Winter though. ๐
Probably just as well ๐
I was sooo not expecting that! LOLOL!
It is more than slightly alarming. Sorry for any traumatization. ๐
No worries, I think my vacation will help me get over the traumatization.
Vacays are always a good coping strategy. Have fun!
Definitely! Thanks!
Heโs got quite a pelt!
Thatโs a very polite way of saying that!
It’s summer. Just wait until you see his winter coat….
I’d hate to be his groomer.
Good job he isn’t at a sheep shearing event…he’d be next in line!
I’m guessing he’d be a real wriggler, too!
Tell that guy he needs to take that wool sweater off, it’s hot out.
Bwahaha! He does look rather wooly.
Wow! I can never unsee that one! Bahahaha!!
I know, there probably isn’t enough eye bleach for everyone, for which I’m truly sorry. But I hope it at least provided you with a smile.
Oh My Goodness!! ha ha haa!
I can never unsee that now…LOLOLOLOL!!
Umm, so sorry. I should have warned folks about this scruffy new doodle. ๐
How about the hairy man, did he dobnate some of his fur to the dooles

Iโm thinking that donation would be graciously refused. ๐
is there a way to “unlike” the hairy gentleman in the forefront of the photo? ๐
Hahaha! ๐
You’re right – it is more than disturbing: the hairdressing term “short back and sides” takes on a whole new meaning..
Bwahaha! Now that was funny!
Sounds like you had lots of fun and I can only imagine. Mom tried one day to weave through poles but I took them out and ran away with it, laughing all the way. She laughed so much she couldn’t catch me and well, that was the beginning and the end of that. ๐คฃ
I am glad I am not a hybrid and you are right when you say it’s getting out of hand. Mom sometimes doodle with her pen and I think that is the closest she’ll ever get to doodling. ๐
Mom and I just took one look at the photo and laughed. You are just so funny! ๐๐๐คฃ
Sam would laugh hysterically at me if I tried training him to do agility. Right before he called Uber for a ride!
๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ Now Mom and I are laughing hysterically this side! We can just see that little scene! ๐ ๐๐คฃ
Sam is nothing if not pragmatic about physical exertion. ๐คฃ
Whahahahah! Mom and I love Sam. He sounds a lot like us. ๐ ๐๐คฃ
Heโs the sweetest knucklehead Iโve ever known. ๐
โค๐๐
Oh, dear! ;D
Not exactly for the faint of heart, is it? ๐
Puberty and genetics were not kind to this man!
For starters. ๐
Whoa! Lamby-doodle…?
Love and licks,
Cupcake
I think that falls more in the โwhat the doodle?โ category. ๐
Quite a laugh on this one.
Ya gotta give the guy some points. I mean to flaunt your fuzzy like that, ya gotta be comfy in your own skin… Buahahaha… except in summer when you can’t remove your fur coat!
๐ Thatโs one very self-assured fella. With lousy fashion sense.
They always do. Have lousy fashion sense, that is.
Just like the fatties with the belly hanging way over their belts are the first to take off their shirts…. blech.
Nothing worse than a 60 year old in a Speedo who thinks heโs still 20.
Oh. Em. Gee.
Gross.
๐ฌmy eyes…my eyes๐ฌ
I applaud you for your volunteer work.
I need eye bleach with the hairy guy. That’s just plain GROSS. I did laugh though.
Have a fabulous day and week. โฅ
Hahaha! And I really laughed out loud with your ‘eye bleach’ comment. Yeah, it was so alarming for me too, I probably should have included a warning.
There’s a video on Facebook showing a trainer putting a cat thru an obstacle course. She didn’t have a dog to work with, so tried a cat. The cat did well for a beginner–and they are trainable despite what people think.
That’s very cool. Takes a special personality to do agility coursing.
But to think of all the money this guy is leaving on the table if he doesn’t connect with a razor company. . .
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
๐คฃ I shouldโve included a warning sign first, no doubt.
Buahahaha!
LOL, not my kind of doodle!
Not mine ๐คฃ
The man who first bred Labradoodles now admits he regrets starting the whole doodle thing.
Perhaps this is what he feared.
Kaci is a “Chestie” – Chihuahua and West Highland White Terrier.
aiieeeee I can never un-see that!
With apologies. Perhaps I should have included a warning.
Yes, we did have a wonderful weekend – lazily watching our deer and their young – as you have seen by now on my blog. We also had some very good rain last night. So, vereything’s fine.
Have a wonderful week up there in the Mile-High-City! Btw, Mary’s cousin from Denver is coming down for a few days.
Have a wonderful family visit.
Thanks!
We’re all covering our eyes, too! Lucy, Xena and Amy
I didnยดt understand at first what it is in the front! I think we are not allowed to make new breeds by mixing dogs, it feels so wrong.
Especially in this case! ๐People here are taking this hybridization thing too far and charging big bucks for what is essentially a mixed breed pet.
I am speechless BOL
Sorry for the traumatization. ๐
Yikes!
Sorry-I know that image was rather cringe-worthy but hope it elicited at least a sliver of a smile.
or a shriek!
๐คฃ
The Guyadoodle โฆ oh boy โฆ. cheers to your volunteer efforts!
Bwahaha, ‘guyadoodle.’ That’s one breed I don’t want to see gain in popularity!
FellaDoodle!!!
๐คฃ
we are with the guy in da corner LOL …omg hahahahaha
I know, right? I couldn’t stop laughing even though the whole look is more than slightly disturbing.
