Happy 4th Birthday to our Originals litter!

Happy December yall! It’s the last month of 2024 so we really want it to count. Today we celebrate three milestones! Our Originals litter of 2020 turned four! (Happy birthday)! Today is the anniversary of our Calliope Jane’s gotcha day! She is our first doodle and she is the one who started us down the dood journey path. As our foundation girl she has given us amazing litters and we adore having her in our family. Our third celebration for today was sending Maui to his forever home. He is the last puppy from our only litter of 2024 to go home and we are so thrilled that each one of the 10 found their matches!

Maui at 6 months ; he is an F1b Saint Berdoodle born to Josephine and Swayze
Calliope Jane at 8 weeks; this was her first time going out for Tex-mex

This year we had the birth of our first F1b Saint Berdoodle litter. They were born in May and were the only litter born here at Pasatiempo Ranch in 2024. It was a year we wanted to hold back on producing puppies and really work on training and deciding where our program direction is going. While we may not have had lots of puppies born here this year we were always very busy!

We have lots of big plans for 2025 and the puppies who we are planning for. Our goal is not only to design amazing little additions to your family but also to produce service and therapy pups as well as companion animals to those who so desperately need assistance in daily routines and life in general. The reality of canine companionship is the right dog will change your life. Let us help guide you to the perfect match!

We hope your holiday season is jolly and filled with love and maybe a few sloppy kisses from your furry friend! If you don’t have a furry friend this Christmas we would love to get one into your home for next years festivities! Xoxo

Let’s celebrate

Milestones. A huge part of the first few weeks are holding our breath and crossing our paws that everything goes as planned. I wouldn’t be being honest if I didn’t say that I sometimes weigh a puppy ten times a day to check for every ounce of gain. We watch them as they breathe and of course we watch each moment to make sure they aren’t just snuggled up with mama but latched on and eating as well. Of course we watch to make sure no puppy is stuck under mama or even that the pup needs a wipe down where Mama pup missed a spot.

Multigenerational Goldendoodles
Two weeks
F1b Aussiedoodles
One Week

For at least the first three weeks of life we stay with our puppies 24/7. We work in shifts and we take this part of the process extremely seriously. Mom dogs eat constantly and it is our responsibility to make sure they are getting enough calories per day as well as ample amounts of water and lots of pets and attention to their health and well being.

We are thrilled with the progression of growth for our current litters. Our Multi generational Goldendoodles are thriving! They are starting to open their eyes and they are beginning to pull their bodies up and balance as they learn to walk. Our daily ENS protocol is going well and they are surprising us each day with their overall calmness and ability to fall asleep in our arms within seconds.

Our current F1b Aussiedoodle litter is just darling. The boys are of course giant and the girls are a tad more dainty. In fact a couple of our girls are on the tiny side in this litter and they are receiving supplemental feedings as well as nursing from our Goldendoodle Mama Winnie. It’s a beautiful thing to be able to hand a puppy from another litter over to a pup with a surplus of milk and love to give!

As always if you have questions or would like your name added to this master list for a Pasatiempo Ranch pup of your own! Xoxo

That’s almost a wrap on 2023

Hey everyone! We stay so busy that it’s sometimes hard to remember to blog a bit and update somewhere other than on the gram! We have had such a fun year with litters and then of course growing and training our pack. We are not quite done with the year yet! We have two litters due this month that will be ready to go home around Valentine’s Day! We are extremely excited because both of these mamas to be were born here at Pasatiempo Ranch! Stay tuned for updates and announcements.

Happy Third Birthday to Eloise & Frances of our Originals Litter

The cooler weather has been so nice for us – it’s allowed much more outdoor time during the day and the dogs just love the fresh air. It’s always a good day when you can play outside with your furry friends.

We hope your 2023 has been fabulous and we look forward to spending another year sharing our pups and following along with you and your family of floofs as well! Xoxo

New Year and New Ideas

On By pasatiemporanchIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Can you believe we are almost through the first month of 2023?! It’s 4:30 am and I’m writing a quick blogpost because I want to share some of the things we are doing currently in our home and as part of our program that are improving both our lives and the lives of our pets!

We have been extremely lucky this month with our weather which has allowed for a lot of outdoor playtime and training sessions. Personally I (Jenny) prefer quiet indoor sessions with the pups – typically individually but I do recognize that outside distractions are important while training also. We like to do daily training with the pack and each of us do things a bit differently which is good for working a dogs brain because change is tiring and a tired dog is a good dog. Because we have such a plethora of different personalities we do like to mix and match pups so that they learn to work in favor of their differences versus against them. For instance Bernadette our Saint is very good with commands because she is extremely treat and food motivated. I like to pair training with her with one of our more rambunctious (younger) doodles because peer pressure is where it’s at and once they see her get a consistent reward they will copy her technique so that they also get that reward.

Bernadette and Josephine

When people say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks that just simply isn’t true. Our oldest pup in the pack is always ready to learn and he has recently begun some new things like running on a leash – he has never cared for exercise but we think the other pups have motivated him to get up and get going – much like humans do in support style gyms. Again – we find peer pressure is really amazing for dogs.

Winnie – A Groomers Delight

This also works for things like grooming . Winnie is one of our goldendoodles who absolutely loves to be brushed and groomed. She would sit all day and let you comb and brush her out. By having a few others in the grooming area with her who are either very young or who don’t think grooming is a treat they see her and want to emulate her good behavior because they realize there are really high value treats to sitting on the grooming table for an extended period. High value here means licking peanut butter off a wooden spatula or fresh chicken bites that they wouldn’t ordinarily have.

If you have one dog who isn’t too motivated to do new things maybe we can help you with that?! There is always value in a friend for your pup and it might be a good time to add to your pack? We are expecting two litters for Valentine’s Day and these puppies will be spectacular little teddy bears. If you do not currently have a dog or you’ve never had one reach out to us and let us walk you through he steps of being a dog owner. There’s never been a better time to have a four legged friend! There are so many dog friendly stores and restaurants and dogs are the greatest motivator to get out and take walks and enjoy the sunshine and even rain. So many of our pawrents have made new human friends at the park and at pet establishments these past few years – common interests of the love of an animal is a great way to meet others. Plus we don’t want to leave out the most important part of a pup – all the snuggles and a non judgmental pal!

Frances & Ophelia are half sisters. They are a great pairing to train with any energetic pup because both are so laidback and easygoing! They also both like to wear clothes and bows.

We hope you enjoy your weekend. Thank you for stopping by Pasatiempo Ranch today! Xoxo

Holiday Season

On By pasatiemporanchIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

This year flew by didn’t it? I can’t believe we’ve been so busy that we haven’t posted since September! Our sweet St Berdoodle litter went home months ago and the house has been feeling empty without a puppy litter on the ground. Not too empty of course – we have lots of big pups to keep us occupied! We do still have availability for F1 Aussiedoodles who are completely vetted, trained and ready for forever homes. Reach out for more information. Must love cuddles and snacks!!

2023 will be a fun year for us and we hope to bring lots of joy to families who are hoping to add a four legged member to their home. We will be expecting a repeat breeding of Calliope Jane & Alfie which results in gorgeous and intelligent F1b standard Goldendoodles. They vary in shades of cream and apricot and parti. We also expect our first litter of F1b Sheepadoodles & Irishdoodles. It’s an exciting time for our family as we have been waiting years and years for these puppies. These pairings will be phenomenal and the pups will of course be beautiful and fluffy! The temperaments of these pairings should produce pups suitable for therapy work. We are very excited!

It’s the season for lots of extra food, family and decorations – as you celebrate be sure to keep an extra watchful eye on your pups. Table scraps aren’t always the friend to your dog that we think they are and you’ll want to be extra watchful that those pretty ornaments don’t get eaten or destroyed. We like to add a few things at a time to be sure the fluffers aren’t extra interested in redecorating our trees!

Please feel free to reach out with questions or if you’d like more information on our upcoming litters in 2023. We are always available to chat about dogs!! Xoxo

Coming Soon!

These gorgeous puppies are currently available from our Alfie x Bindi litter. They are F1 Aussiedoodles and they are fabulous! A few things we’ve noticed about this fantastic breed so far is that they are SO FUN TO TRAIN! Seriously, Aussiedoodles are smart and very quick learners. When these babies line up for training time – which is always – they catch on to new commands super fast.

We’ve trained a lot of different breeds over the years and are amazed by the intelligence this mix have! (Maybe it’s the fact both their mom & dad are super brains)! Aussiedoodles thrive with consistent engagement and stimulation. The sky is the limit in terms of what you can teach them!

We are also engaging them daily in grooming and crate training. They have not had a potty accident in over a week. (We told you they are SMART)! They are playing with our other dogs and kittys as well as working on one on one training daily. We continue to introduce them to new sights and sounds each day; today a few went for a ride in the car and tomorrow we will repeat with the other two.

All the training and learning makes for tired puppies and they spend most their hours asleep. Babies sleep tons at this young age. We enjoy holding them sometimes while they nap so that they are ready and willing to easily transition into their new pawrents arms!

These babies are ready for their new homes and we can’t wait for you to love them! Contact us today to arrange a meeting!

What’s New?!

We have four girls looking for their furever homes. Each one is beautiful and sweet. They have had nearly a week of indoor/outdoor potty training and are doing great going outside! We are doing daily training on basic obedience commands as well. They are very treat savvy and work hard to earn those and pets! We urge you to reach out if you are searching for an Aussiedoodle puppy! They are so intelligent and loyal – and of course ADORABLE!

In other news we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our highly anticipated Bernadette & Alfie litter. This is our first F1 St Berdoodle litter and we could not be more excited! Our reservation list is filling up quickly so please do not hesitate to touch base if you’ve been waiting for one of these giant fluffy babies from us!

We recently made the switch over to a new food. Honestly we had been happy for years with our PPP food but it’s become harder and harder to secure on a regular basis and along with some formula and ingredient switches we’ve been actively pursuing a new quality food for the last year.

Trusted & Fed Premium Quality Pet Food

We are thrilled with how the pups are responding on this food. We love that the the food is manufactured here in the USA and they also ship free AND you can sign up for auto shop so you never run out! There is nothing more satisfying than not having to load those heavy bags of food into the car!

Choosing the right food to feed your new pet is crucial to their overall health and well-being and should be done with careful thought and consideration. TLC Pet Food delivers the ultimate balance of quality meats, animal fats, vitamins, and minerals, TLC provides everything your pet needs to develop into a strong, healthy, and energetic companion.

With that being said while we do use and recommend TLC you are totally free to fee the best food you and your vet decide upon. We do not recommend feeding a grain free food and if you do switch please mix the new food you choose in to your puppies diet slowly with the food they go home with as to not cause any tummy upsets.

As always we hope you have a great weekend and please touch base with us if you have any questions about our program or puppies! Xoxo

Puppy packs

Puppy bags!

I know that so many people wonder what comes with a Pasatiempo Ranch puppy? That is a great question & one we love talking about! We have been handed a puppy more than once from a “breeder” along with a snack size zip loc bag of food or maybe a sheet of notebook paper that had the puppies birthdate scribbled on it. Then there was the time we were handed a shaking and sopping wet dog and no information about food or vaccine records (because there were none). We thought – we can do better than this and we have!

Our puppies are created and loved by us first and always. We want you to receive a new family member with all of the pieces of the puppy puzzle that you need to make those first weeks easier on both you and that precious fluffy baby.

That’s why each of our puppies go home with the following items:

1) Food. We provide a container filled with food for your go home bag. This way you can slowly add in the food you are planning to use to prevent upsetting their little tummy. We are currently using the TLC brand of food for our puppies and if you decide you would like to keep your puppy on that particular brand we do provide a $5 coupon for your first order. This food is made in Canada and has European standards which are more stringent than the USA. They provide free shipping.

2) Vet Documents. Our puppies are wormed from two weeks forward. They see our vet at Animal Crossing Veterinarian Hospital in Floresville Texas at seven weeks where they receive a thorough exam and their first vaccine.

3) Our dogs receive NuVet daily supplements which your puppies have been taking since before they were born. Each of our pregnant moms receive these daily supplements during and after pregnancy. You will receive 6 days worth of vitamins with your puppy pack.

5) Flea & Tick Prevention as well as the first month of Heartworm Prevention.

4) Toys that smell like siblings. We add in a few of our fave toys to their bags. The puppies love puppy pacifiers and tennis balls and we also add in a stuffed animal and blanket that your puppies litter has played with! We also include a handmade bandana that your puppy will wear home to meet you and a potty pad especially if you are traveling with your puppy.

6) Microchip information that you can easily register as soon as you pick up your puppy. It is a free service with no hidden monthly fees. We use Fi Nano for our microchips.

7) 30 days of no obligation health insurance through Trupanion.

8) Our Contract & Health Guarantee along with a picture of your puppies litter and parents.

We are always here to help guide you through any situation that could arise. We love our puppies forever. Each one is so special to us and we are so happy to have you as part of our extended Pasatiempo Ranch family!!

Land Down Under Litter

We are so in love with this group! They are so sweet and smart. We are so lucky to have this lovely and lively lifestyle that allows us to create beautiful puppies and then to share them with fabulous families that become an extension of our own.

We visited our vet earlier this week and our puppies each received their first vaccines. The puppies were so good there and enjoyed the attention they received from other patients and the staff.

The puppies are doing so good with pottying in their trays. We’ve got a lot of fun things going on for them as we are working hard to help their little minds stay busy and growing while allowing them enough sleep and rest to continue growing.

If you would like to chat about a puppy from this litter please reach out! 210-420-9486

We would love for you to be part of the Pasatiempo Ranch family! Xoxo
