Gravy was rescued and adopted in 2019, and had a good life for several years. Then another dog was added to the family, and after 6+ months of living in peace, the dynamic changed for some reason. Gravy and the new dog just didn't seem to be capable of getting along any more and we can't say why. We agreed that Gravy should come back to Bluebonnet so we could find a new home for her.
She is a very sweet, affectionate dog. She gets along with other dogs, just not with the one new female added to her family. She had lived with other female dogs here before adoption, AND with another female dog in her adopted home. So it's not a same-sex issue. It seems to be specifically these two dogs.
Gravy is house/potty-trained, crate-trained, and leash-trained. She's a very easy dog to have around. DNA results show her to be 50% Poodle, 12.5% Boxer, 12.5% Husky, and 25% mix of various breed groups. She seems to be fairly low-shedding and quieter than the Husky part of her DNA would suggest.

ORIGINAL BIO - 2019
Biscuits and her sister Gravy landed in a small shelter in rural Oklahoma after being picked up as strays. There are several Doodle breeders within an hour's drive of the shelter, and our best guess is that these girls had a good home but somehow got lost. We've looked at lots of photos and read the descriptions for several different types of Doodle, and it's hard to say which variety these girls might be, but they do look more like Doodles than like any AKC breed. One Oklahoma breeder's website has photos of "SwissDoodles" that look similar to these girls; those dogs are bred from a BerneDoodle paired with an AussieDoodle. Another Oklahoma breeder's website has photos of GoldenDoodles with brindle coloring similar to the coats on Biscuits & Gravy. We didn't find an Oklahoma breeder advertising Doodles from German Wire-Haired Pointers, but the wiry texture of their coats makes us think that's a possibility. We can only guess about their breed mix, unless you want to donate a DNA kit so we can find out for sure. :)
We can tell you that personality-wise, Biscuits and Gravy remind us very much of some Doodle pups we rescued last year. They are sweet, affectionate, full of energy, very playful, and just all around good-tempered dogs. They get along with other dogs and seem well-socialized with people.
