Ever hear one of those analogies, where you start with a jar full of golf balls or something and the question is, “Is the jar full?” Of course the inclination is to say yes. Then some marbles are added to the jar. Same question, but you can see where it’s going now. Then you add sand... and so on. There’s always room for more, it’s a matter of perspective.
Yesterday my wife and I were feeling like two full time jobs, two preschoolers, dog, house, and various vehicles was just leaving us with too many free minutes between loads of laundry on weeknights. So we got one of these:
It’s a 10 week old golden doodle named Hadley. Welcome to the family! She and I slept on the couch last night, it wasn’t terrible.
Happy Labor Day! I won’t be responding quickly because I’ll be chasing one of the critters no doubt.
Our current dog is not yet impressed with our new AnkleBiter3000. She’ll come around.

Congrats! Technically, is that doggo a 2017 or 2018 model? When does the doggo model year start?

Nice choice! My parents have a labradoodle. She turned 11 this March, very good dog.

Once the preschoolers start chasing the new dog and the old dog can get some rest it’ll come around real quick.

This is a Paw Code 42, only enthuasiasts know those though. She’s virtually identical to he untrained eye from the Paw Code 38 but there are a lot of differences under the skin as they say.

My brother has a golden retriever that they are hoping to breed with a neighbor’s poodle - we’re on the list for one of their puppies (but she’s playing hard to get so far)!

haha, well our other one is pretty fantastic. A good personality, without the stuffed-animal-intelligence of a golden. I had goldens as a kid and loved them, but this seems like a good progression, so to speak. It’s funny, my wife had poodles growing up...

That’s hilarious. And you’ve made your own little “mixed breeds”. =)
We currently have a Brittany and a little lab/terrier(?) mix.
