It was a bright and early Friday morning when I got the news. I’m going on a daycare visit!

Hi… I’m a [Golden Doodle Mini](/breed/goldendoodle/)
 and I’m going to tell you all about my adventure to a place called daycare (for human kids). At first, I didn’t know what to think when my Pet Counselor told me about the place I would be going. She said there would be a bunch of children to snuggle, cuddle and play with! I was very happy and ready… as you can see with my lightning-fast tail waggin’ in my picture!

Being a Petland puppy, I knew I had a job to do… and that’s to love and to be loved by all I meet! And this day was going to be no exception!

I wasn’t nervous one dog’on bit because my kennel mates were tagging along with me… here’s my friends a Cockadoodle and Bernedoodle.

It was a beautiful summer day with a bunch of fresh smells and butterflies floating in the wind… – Distracted puppy Alert – I almost caught one, but it was too quick for my short puppy legs.

It was definitely a sun’s out, tongues out kind of Doodle day!

When we arrived, we could hear the excitement and laughter as the teachers told the children to sit in a circle and shouted, “The puppies are here!”

Wait… that’s us they are talking about!

It was our time to shine!

Oh, the fun we had as we ran around and wagged our tails as fast as we could! The kiddos petted us and gave us the sweetest hugs!

My clumsy kennel mates and I even tumbled over each other as we raced to see who would get the most rubs!

My friend, the Cockadoodle won!

I was a close second and the Bernadoodle… well, he flirted with the teachers too much to care about our ruff race!

The children were so fun to play with and they even gave me a name, Penny! They said I looked like a Penny, whatever that is?! My friends got names too… Apollo and Rufus!

We spent the whole morning with the kids, and they told how they all had been to Petland where they love to not only play with my fellow puppies pals, but hamsters, reptiles and birds too!

As lunch time approached for the kids, (- Distracted puppy Alert – I could smell it… they were having chicken nuggets… yum!) it was time to head back to Petland to eat a snack and take a long nap!

Paw to heart… I swear it was the best dog’on day ever! Now on to my next adventure… finding my forever family!

My man and I came by Monday, just looking around and ended up leaving with ALL three ferrets they had. We planned to get just two but the other one jumped up to us like she wanted to come too. Petland threw in a free ferret kit if we got the third one.  I liked their financing plans they had as well it’s an easy way to bump my credit. So far Matcha, Mocha, and Lottie are loving their home. They love playing with the dogs and I love their silly personalities. I only wish they came potty trained, they didn’t have a specific area for them to pee or poop In so potty training has been a little difficult for the two older girls, only reason why I’m doing 4 stars instead of 5. But we are very happy with our girls and the free ferret kit ended up helping us a lot more than we expected 🫶🏻 thank you to whoever said it was okay to throw it in. It’s also a very specious pet land compared to the one next to my job, we will probably be back.
