Retired Girls
Penny is mother, grandmother, great grandmother, great, great grandmother and great, great, great (!) grandmother to many of the pups here at Aspen Hill Doodles. She's a Golden Retriever. She sadly passed over the rainbow bridge when she was 15. At that age she still actively participated in raising our pups. She is Luna and Gucci's mom (see below on this page). Penny is one
of those dogs that never needed to be formally trained, she seemed
to have been born with good manners. We just showed her what we'd
like her to do, and she did it. She also acted as interpreter for
some of the other animals in the house, if someone needed something
(like to go out), and they didn't know how to communicate that to
us, Penny told us. She was incredible! Some of her siblings were the
same way. She was a super mom, and grandma and produced
some wonderful puppies! She is Bindi, Maggie and Botza's grandma, Naiya's, Granby's and Rio's great grandma, and Casey Bear's and Rusty's great, great grandma. She is Mango's great, great, great grandma, and Winnie's great, great, great, great grandma. You'll find these dogs below and on our PARENT DOGS page.

Luna is
one of Penny's (see above) puppies. She's a Golden Retriever. She loves everybody
and if you're not careful, she'll try to creep up into your lap.
She is happy and likes to be silly, and she's always ready to play.
She really enjoys carrying things and she teaches us to pick up
our socks because if we don't, she will! One time her mouth was
extra full and we counted 10 socks! When she finds things around
the house she carefully brings them to drop into the puppy box for
the pups to explore. She is Lulu and Bindi's mom (see below), and also Maggie's mom and Naiya's grandma and Casey Bear and Rusty's great grandma, and Mango's great, great grandma (on our PARENT DOGS page). Her coat is a lustrous red that shimmers in the sunlight.
She has retired to her family and is using her puppy raising skills
to help raise her new human baby! |

She lives in a loving guardian home and her favorite place to be is in the middle of the family activity, especially with her human mom. She's a beautiful girl, with a strong, blocky structure.

leash she "stacks" it together so that there are no long
dangling pieces! She's not allowed on the furniture, but early in
the morning she makes her best effort to slip undetected up under
the bed covers with her guardian! Her mother's bloodlines are purely
American, her dad's purely European so that her lines are diverse,
contributing to her robust good health. She is living out a happy retirement here in Lakewood, Colorado.

She's got excellent manners, staying in the parts of the house where she knows she's allowed, and only going potty in the potty area of her yard. She is the trusty companion of her four year old human "brother", cuddling with him, playing fetch, and listening attentively while he sings original songs that he creates for her.

Semi-Retired
Boys
Some of our older boys are enjoying semi-retirement in their guardian homes. They will occasionally come out of semi-retirement to sire a litter for us.
Tino
Tino is our first poodle.
When he joined our family he was 8 weeks old and only weighed 3
pounds! We can't believe how much dog we've gotten in such a small
package! He's acrobatic and loves to be up on the back of the couch
with the cat. Nobody told him that he's little, so he plays with
the big dogs and keeps them on their toes. We had heard that many
red poodles have health problems due to inbreeding (red is a tricky
color to breed). Tino isn't inbred, you have to go back 4 generations
to find another red dog in his pedigree, his genes were carried
along by silver and black dogs. As a pup he was a lovely deep red
color, he has matured to a beautiful dark apricot. His pups are
light apricot/gold to a deep red and often have a white spot on
their chest. He is the father of Gucci and Lulu (see above) and Naiya (see our PARENT DOGS page). He's Botza's, Casey Bear's, and Rusty's grandpa (see our PARENT DOGS page). He's Granby, Mango'sand Rio's great-grandfather (see our PARENT DOGS page). Our dogs from his line have his loyal, cheerful disposition.

(where's the toy or treat?) under one of three cans, or in which hand. When he wants something, he will come stare at his owner with his head tilted to one side while she goes through a list of possibilities: "do you want a drink of water? To go night-night? To have a party? To get a bath? To play with Tyler? To go for a walk? A cookie? Some puppy chow? Your crocodile? To get a haircut?" and much more! He will bark at the right suggestion.

trying to say words. When it snows he tries to catch the flakes
in his front paws, like a kitten! He loves to play with empty water
bottles, and can catch them as if they were balls, then he tosses
them and crackles them until the crackle wears out! His playfulness
is infectious. He's attentive and never misses anything.

His daughters are Hazel and Zinnia (on our PARENT DOGS). He has a lovely soft coat and a delightful personality. His favorite game is fetch in the lake, he's a great swimmer! He is eternally positive, even convincing grumpy older dogs to play. He loves hiking and camping and cuddling. He takes treats very gently and actually chews all of his food! He enjoys blowing bubbles in his water bowl through his nose! He brings his leash when his "mom" puts her shoes on, knowing it's time for a walk ( like his grandma Hallie.) He watches smiling out the front window for his humans to return home. You can see a photo of him as a puppy with the rest of his litter towards the bottom of our PUPPIES page. He's enjoying his retirement, especially visits with his daughter Zinnia! |
