Hi Everyone! I have been lurking for a while, but thought it was time to join in the fun! We got our pup Manny, multi-gen labradoodle, earlier this month when he was 8 weeks old. Things have been going really well as all adjust to life together! My husband has always had dogs, but this is my first since I have pretty severe allergies. I haven't had any allergy issues with him, so we are thrilled! This seem like such a helpful and fun group, I am sure we will be here often with stories and questions!

I think I figured out how to post pictures so here goes:

Thanks for the warm welcome!!

His eyes are not as blue as they seem in the picture. They are dark, dark blue, pretty much appearing black.

His father was about a 55lbs labradoodle and his mom was 45lbs poodle, so he could be around their size. He does seem to be on the smaller size (5 lbs at 8 weeks), so we think he might be a little smaller. He is growing quickly though, so we'll see!
