Two Years Already!

[Donna K & Quincy]

Tomorrow marks our two year doodleversary. It's hard to believe it's been two years since Quincydoodle came into our lives, the time has gone by so fast. It took me two years of research and showing DH millions of cute puppy pictures to finally get him to agree to getting a dog. I wanted a big dog that was low shedding and that led me to the goldendoodle. From the day he came home we were hooked, so much so that DH keeps talking about getting another one. Quincy has bought so much joy to our lives, he goes everywhere with us and so many of our plans revolve around Quincy. Every day he makes me laugh or at the very least he makes me smile. I took  some time off work when he was first home and when I had to go back to work I couldn't imagine leaving Quincy home alone for all day so I talked DH into taking Quincy to work with him, where he quickly became the company mascot. It got to be that if I was off for a few days, the staff were telling me to go back to work because they missed having Quincy with them. It is such a joy to play and cuddle with him and I can rarely pass him by without giving him a hug or a rub of his ears. He is stretched out under my legs as I type this and he is never far away.  Quincy is not perfect but he is perfect for me, he had made me a more calm and patient person and in loving him I find that love has grown to encompass all dogs. Quincy has also brought another added benefit, because of him I found DK and a group of friends that share a common interest and  are there to support each other through the good and bad. In two years we have gone from a house with dog rules to a house the dog rules and wouldn't have it any other way.

Happy Birthday Quincy! What a great collage you made Donna. On to a wonderful year three!

Thanks everyone for your comments, I never imagined it was possible to love a dog so much, maybe too much. Joe, I retire in less than a year and chances are good that Quincy could be getting a sibling then.

Congrats Donna. Doesn't the time fly by? So when will you be becoming a double dood home?

Congratulation!! I am also approaching the two year mark with Cooper, and although I have had Dogs my whole life, and have always loved Dogs, these two years are my first experience with Doodles.  So, I understand the feelings you expressed so beautifully.  Doodles have a way of changing all previous house rules!  Quincy is a beautiful Doodle, and it is a wonderful story on how he has changed your life.  Thanks for sharing.
