Goldendoodle Guides and Doodle Dog Care Resources

Doodle Proud started as a blog about my mini Goldendoodle, Bailey. Now it is a tribute to her life and a home for what I am learning with my mini Bernedoodle, Ella, along with helpful articles for doodle dog owners.

Practical guides on grooming, training, temperament, and health for Goldendoodles and other doodle breeds.

In Loving Memory of Bailey

Bailey wasn’t just a pet. She was our companion through long days, hard seasons, and ordinary moments that became meaningful simply because she was there. Doodle Proud started as a simple blog about life with a mini Goldendoodle, but underneath it all, it was about her. Her personality. Her quirks. The way she made life lighter just by being in it.

She’s no longer physically here, but this space carries her memory. Every post, every photo, every story is part of saying thank you to the little dog who gave us more love than we ever expected.

Today

Life With Ella

Bailey will always be part of this story. And now, Ella carries it forward.

Ella’s story began differently. She’s mostly Bernedoodle but part Goldendoodle, and when we rescued her, she was in rough shape. With time, care, and patience, she healed. Now she’s thriving, playful, and full of life, bringing more joy into our home than we could have imagined.

If you’re searching for a doodle, consider rescue or adoption. There are so many wonderful dogs waiting for a second chance. Bringing Ella home changed her life, and ours.
