Love, love, love this puppy!

I don't have long to stay on here as we're giving Atty his first bath tonight, but I wanted to come back to DK to tell you what a joy having our young Atticus is! We love every inch of his little puppy body! Sweet, smart, playful, smart, stinky, smart...Did I already say smart? ;-)

Here is a photo of him on our way home from Old Mill Doodles in Staunton, VA. :-)

We took him to the vet today and he was immediately fallen in love with by the Salem Vet Clinic staff. Dr. D there is wonderful and is so glad to have another GD in his practice's family! He's a healthy, happy little boy!

I hope the other people on here that were getting a puppy last weekend are having a great time with their new additions, too! Hopefully tomorrow I'll have more time to read everyone's posts.

That's all for now. I'm off to bathe my wet dog smelling puppy! (Seriously, after all of the rain we had this weekend he smells like wetdog.)

What a cutiepie! I love his name. To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my favorite books.(and movie too) Is he named after the father's character? Aren't doodles just the best puppies? I love Beckett so much. Congrats on the new pup.

Oh man, I forgot to mention how cute he is-you must be SOO thrilled. Enjoy cause they grow so fast.

FYI- I call these dogs, "self cleaning". Our boy will come home from the dog park, wet, muddy and exhausted. I will let him sleep it off for awhile with every intention of bathing at least his feet. When he wakes up he is dry and when he stands up there is usually a pile of sand under him and he looks as good as new. So I give him a brushing and he is good to go. It's like a miracle or something.
