On August 22 we headed to Little Paws of Iowa in Rock Valley to pick up our newest family member Mimi! We had anxiously been awaiting this day, even before she was born! We first learned about Little Paws of Iowa through some friends who have an adorable dog from this breeder. I still wasn't sold on getting a dog, it was actually kinda nice not having one for the last year. The kids were relentless and finally wore me down until I gave in. We were put on a waiting list and when she finally arrived we had the second choice of the 8 puppies. Through video and pictures we fell in love with this particular puppy right away and thankfully the people ahead of us on the list did not pick her! They had named her Mimi and partially because we couldn't decide on a name and we kinda liked Mimi we decided to keep it!
Meeting her for the first time!
On our way home!
She is a mini goldendoodle, so 50% golden retriever, 50% miniature poodle. She should only get to be around 30 lbs and the best part? She doesn't shed!
This is her favorite place to lay/hide! She won't be able to get under this chair for long!
She is super sweet and super naughty all at once! I forgot how much work puppies were and am thinking a baby would have been easier! She loves her kennel, has been a great sleeper at night and is doing great potty training. Now if we could just keep her from chewing up our house! Yikes!
All worn out!
