Meet: Brody!

Little B

If you somehow happened to miss my news yesterday…we got a puppy!  His name is “Brody”.

He is a Mini Schnoodle (which is a mini Schnauzer and mini Poodle mix).  He is tiny now and will be about 10 pounds when full grown.  We’ve been looking for about 4 months and finally found him.

I’m already in love with him!

So is Madison.

M and Brody

We all are.

New Puppy

Honestly, who could not love this guy?

Brody

He loves to play.

Big Sister or Mommy

Although he showed no interest in the 15 other toys we bought for him (most of them look like they were made for a GIANT dog next to him so I’m not surprised) but this little raccoon, he’ll chase this thing around the room and play tug of war for… well, for 10 minutes.  Let’s face it, who wants to play tug of war for hours?

He loves to cuddle!

He also does fine just by himself in his “pen”.

Brodys First Day

 

Madison has wanted a dog her whole life and I’ve always said I will NEVER have an inside dog.

Well…  😀

Despite the fact that the climate here is not “harsh” and contrary to our original plan to get a fenced yard and a couple Labs or Retrievers that could live in the basement and outside, we ended up in a house with no possibility of a fenced in yard and found that the climate here is “rain with a chance of downpour” with hot and humid summers and wet and wetter in the winter.

So, I changed my tune and Madison changed her “dream dog” from Golden Retriever to something very small and that doesn’t shed and is “allergy friendly”.  (Both Wes and I are allergic to every animal under the sun.)  We spent time with my sister and her daughter this summer, when I went to help her get her house ready to sell, and they had a Mini Schnoodle who Madi and I both fell in love with.  I had NO allergic reaction to at all so we decided that’s what we wanted.

We’ve been looking for about 4 months and finally found him.  He’s perfect for us (And I hope we’re perfect for him.)

 

I’m looking forward to many happy memories like this:

  1. We have some furry guys in our family, but they all live outside. They’re full size dogs and would tear the house apart if they were allowed inside.
    My daughter has also wanted a dog for her whole live, so when we moved over to the Philippines last year she got her wish. Five of them: Buster, Jack, Nugget, Cookie and Cupcake, the only girlie.

  2. You will love that dog! We have a schnoodle! Despite the fact that she violates every rule of schoodledom – she sheds like mad, and is a porky 30 lbs, (watch his weight – both schnauzers and poodles tend to be overweight) – she’s always believed she is beautiful and that the world is her oyster. She considers herself the neighborhood social director an injects herself into every human gathering she can manage – all for the purpose of getting attention! EVERYONE in our town knows who Ella is! Congrats.

  3. So Cute! Congrats on your new bundle of fluff! :O)

  4. Oh my! – what a cutie. I, like you said I would never have a dog in the house and am allergic to many animals. That changed about 15 years ago when Schnitzel came home with my husband and daughter one day, then 2 months ago – same daughter brought Kindii home from Africa with her. She is back in Africa for a few months and Kindii is with mom and dad. She is a sweetie.

    I look forward to hearing all about Brody in your posts as he grows.

    Enjoy-
