Thank you so much once again for entering and voting on the 2011 Labradoodle Trust Calendar, there were so many beautiful entries, each and every one of them deserving of a place.
The thing which really shined through was how much we love them and what a huge part of our lives they are – no matter how dirty, naughty, young or old.
Before we get on to the results, some of you may have read Paulines post in the ‘Rainbow Bridge’ section about little puppy Christy this week.
Christy was clearly loved and adored by everyone especially by her family, and obviously everyone that voted could see what a darling she was as well….
Christy has won the ‘scrummy puppy’ category and will have her own page in the 2011 Labradoodle Trust calendar – I really hope her family will be able to take some small comfort at this awful time and that they can see that we all thought she was something very special too.
I’m sure everyone will join me is sending Christys family our deepest condolences, and if anyone is like me, they’ll be hugging their doodles extra close tonight.

Any of you that’s ever met Fudge will understand if you have any food and are not sharing it………..

Once again, thank you to everyone that’s taken part by either entering or voting – this is YOUR calendar and all the profits will go to help any unlucky doodles which find themselves in need of rehoming.
I will do my best to try and get as many of our gorgeous doodles into the calendar (same as last year) and I believe you may be getting two different sizes – A3 and long & thin.
Please watch this space, as it won’t be long before you can put your orders in!!!
Thank you
