Any advice is appreciated.

I just joined this site to learn more about labradoodles.  Last monday i lost my buddy Neko.  We found him at the Humane Society of Pittsburgh.

  The link is to my blog and it is a story about my buddy from 2009.

He was such a wonderful companion to us all (Me 51, Hubby 56, and Princess Pricilla Pumpkin Cat 16)

Although this past week has been painful, we have also celebrated the joy this animal brought our family.  I know, absolutely, that because of the joy he brought us, that I want to find a new buddy, not to replace Neko but to become a special part of our family.

The link below is something my husband wrote the night that we lost our Neko

Anyhow, I welcome any information anyone can give me on this beautful breed.  I know I can't afford the high prices that I have seen for this puppy, but I am going to try to find a new member for $400 or less. Is this possible?

 

We are responsible pet owners but can't spend $1600 and up for a dog.  Are we going  to be able to find one? 

I am rambling, thanks for reading this.

Sorry about your loss.   Thank goodness for our dogs.  They stay such a short while but touch our lives  forever. 

I think if you are patient, do your homework, and are willing to give this some time you will find the perfect dog again. Whether is be some type of doodle or another breed.   One that will be with you for many years to come.
