What's this? A new puppy?



Yup- she's a goldendoodle. Julie made the mistake of coming home yesterday and telling me that "Top Gear Dog" was a goldendoodle, and then she started looking at breeders in the US; big mistake. You'd think that after this much time together she would realize that I'd interpret that as a big ol' green light to get a puppy. When she came home today, I'd found a breeder only 45 miles away that by an amazing coincidence had puppies that were just old enough to go home today. She valiantly tried the "I was just curious" defense, but Ronnie and I prevailed. We named her Sookie, after Sookie Stackhouse (it's really hard to come up with a strong female dog name, especially when your daughter persists in throwing out "Princess" every 15 seconds). I'm really curious how many people are now doing google searches for "Top Gear Dog" and "Sookie Stackhouse", in addition to "goldendoodle".
