LULU

LULU is my new friend! She is a golden doodle, although as you can see, she is more swarthy than golden. She is a second-generation golden doodle, which means that one of her parents is a standard poodle (her dad, by the name of Big Kid Rock) and her mother is a golden doodle (Ruby Rose). She is very sweet and soft and she lives with me and we are friends! We met yesterday at a farm in Colorado. This farm was ever-so-much more the middle of nowhere than North Platte. It is a couple hours from the interstate, on County Road KK, which is paved with dirt. There were actual tumbleweed crossing the highway, desert-y Rocky foothills, and a snake that truly slivered across the road like live mercury. The past day has been very exhausting for Lulu--I don't think she'd ever been in a car before (and she had to start out w/ a three-hour tour--and she barfed, although maybe it was b/c of the allegedly stomach-calming medicine her breeder gave her). I think this is also her first time in the house of a person, and she is getting pretty good at going up and down stairs. She doesn't like being on the leash very much but she's getting used to it. She's awake now, time to go outside.
