Lola has by no means had a proper weblog introduction, however she’s now 6 months previous and I’m sharing a few of the mischief she’s gotten into as an alternative. It’s rather more becoming this fashion.
We knew that we ultimately needed to get one other canine. When Maisey began to behave extra grandma than pet – sleeping on the sofa and simply appeared bored through the day – we figured it will be sooner relatively than later. The Pilot and I had mentioned it and knew we needed to make it occur.
He wrapped up the items to this puzzle for Christmas:


The women and I every had a chunk and once we put it collectively, the ladies squealed, and I shed a few tears as a result of I used to be excited and it was so cute to see them so blissful.
He figured we’d select a pet and it will be some time till she was really dwelling with us, however the ladies and I had Lola picked out the following day and he was flying out to Salt Lake Metropolis inside every week to select her up. (We act shortly round right here haha.)




She is a twister of pleasure and power, and has been the sweetest greatest good friend and sister to Maisey. They already love one another and chase one another round, play tug, wrestle, and nap collectively. I’m SO so glad we did it.


On the similar time, I didn’t understand that goldens are a really distinctive breed. (Lola is a mini goldendoodle however I feel they could have lied in regards to the mini half as a result of she’s already large and never performed rising haha.) They wish to eat all the things, get into all the things, and fake that they will’t hear you if you attempt to right them. I’m not tremendous anxious about it as a result of now we have a tremendous canine coach and I do know goldens are wonderful canines. (We’ve got shut mates who had a golden retriever and he was such an awesome boy.) As a pet, it’s been rather a lot!
I spotted that in contrast to our different canines, Lola hasn’t had a correct web introduction. That is largely as a result of I spend more often than not chasing her round and prying issues out of her mouth. As a substitute of a proper introduction, let me let you know about all the issues that she has destroyed or consumed, simply within the final month.


issues that Lola has performed (eaten)
Your entire spongy within a pink highlighter marker. I used to be petting her and realized her beard was reddish. I used to be like, “What did you eat?” and he or she yawned to point out off her neon pink tongue. I discovered the unhappy empty highlighter shell in her canine mattress, however all the things else was gone. She’s completely tremendous.
P’s homework. Not as soon as, however twice. I took an image so we may show it to her instructor once we requested for one more copy.
Your entire backside part of all 4 of our breakfast nook chairs. You recognize the froth beneath that provides the chair squish and help? It’s gone. Come sit with us for breakfast and your booty can sink down in your chair as you eat, too.
A number of rolls of paper towels.
A whole Eegee’s sub sandwich. P set it on the desk in between bites, Lola jumped up and CHOMP. Your entire factor, down her throat.
A hibiscus bush, which continues to develop regardless of her chomping on it daily.
A child hen within the yard. Tom needed to pry it out of her mouth and sadly the candy little hen didn’t make it.
Fruit salad. A number of instances all through the day, I’ve to ask Siri if it’s protected for a canine to eat sure fruit, as a result of she’ll steal it off the counter. She likes pears, mango, and melon. She likes all the things actually.
Tried to eat: our guinea pig. We’ve got child gates downstairs and one was open. She ran upstairs to the place the guinea pig lives and our wonderful home cleaner stopped her. Now now we have to get a further child gate for the sport room, the place the guinea pig lives.
So inform me, mates: any tips for golden doodles? She will get walked daily and nonetheless has a ton of power, however I’m hoping we will begin swimming along with her quickly.
I used to be interested by getting her some deal with puzzles in case you can suggest any! And likewise ready till I exchange all the breakfast nook chairs.
