As I've mentioned before and as some of you already know, Laura and I picked up a puppy on Monday. Here's a picture of the new girl Lyla (click for larger image):
Awww, she's cute! We should have a dog get-together at Mom & Dads and trash the place! LOL

I forgot to mention she's a Cockapoo in case anyone is interested, not a cockatoo like Mom originally thought I said on the phone. :)

So she's a poodle mixed with a cockatoo? :)
Marc said about 14 hours later
Yea, can't you see the mohawk? Except it's a little off center.
GJ said about 15 hours later
The crest, you mean? I'm a bird dude who happens to have a dog.

I think It's a cockadoodle. As for trashing Mom's and Dad's, we can bring Sam and Smokey too, though Smokey might eat Abby, Lyla, and Rascal......
Steve said about 21 hours later
Probably best we leave them home.....
GJ said about 24 hours later
Sam and Smokey would have fun with Lexie--the three of them could wrestle! Gosh knows I'm getting tired of waiting for her to grow up. :)
GJ said about 24 hours later
But then again, they'd probably throw us out of Radisson.

Lyla kind of looks like a cockadoodle, as she almost has a golden retriever face, but I guess that's what you get when you mix a cocker spaniel and poodle. I've seen quite a range of looks on them, but it mostly has to do with if they're a first generation or 2nd generation. Ours is first gen (meaning cocker spaniel and poodle), some people go a bit more of a dangerous, in terms of health for the dog, route and get a 2nd generation which is a cockapoo and cockapoo. They tend to look less curly and even more like a golden retriever...at least as a puppy.
Also, if I brought Lyla, the only way she could stand a chance playing with the other dogs is if I give her pupperoni. She goes absolutely bonkers for that stuff.
I would love to hear three guys describe this scene. Preferably after each has drained a six-pack.

Best car chase ever. Only a woman would drive in circles during a "high speed chase." The people calling the action were hysterical too.
GJ said about 18 hours later
You just know I'm going to have to share that comment with Laura. LOL!!
Marc said about 19 hours later
I'm banking on you forgetting by July 4th, or whenever we all get together again. :)
GJ said about 20 hours later
At my advanced age, that's a pretty good bet. We're shooting for Memorial Day, though. I might still have a few of those brain cells by then, but if you're not there it'll all be for naught.

my favorite part, getting out of the car to yell at the officers...would have been great if the car got going a little faster and she was finally caught chasing after her own car.
