After a 2 year battle over a dog, I finally got my puppy! We decided to get a Goldendoodle because Josh has bad allergies. If you haven't heard of the breed, it is becoming very popular (just do a google search). The mix is a golden retriever and poodle. We drove out passed Warrenton (Josh was shaking with nervousness the entire time) to look at the puppies. I always wanted a girl dog but the breeder only had boys available (his daughter was going to keep the two girls). When we got there, the girl puppies were still with the liter. However, our little Cody ran up and jumped in our arms. The girl pups were much more aggressive with the liter and less cuddly (I found this very surprising). Cody won our hearts the second he sat in our laps. We brought him home and the rest is history. He is our little boy and we are so in love with him!
