Mitch’s posterous

Dudley is our new Doodle.  He's a rescue from Big Dog Rescue up in Sonoma who retrieved him from a shelter in Madera (Central Valley) where he would have been put down if not adopted.  He's about two years old and is a Golden Doodle.  He was picked up as a stray in very poor condition and thanks to Big Dog Rescue was treated for a variety of infirmities and has been getting healthy.  We speculate that he might have been in a family which was foreclosed out of their home and left behind.

Dudley is incredibly sweet and good-natured.  He's a real snuggler.  He's had some training and is rapidly learning the routines of our household.  Cosmo, our seven year old Labradoodle, his new big brother, is a very good teacher.  He and Cosmo have warmed up to each other and really getting along.  In fact, having Dudley around has increased Cosmo's happiness markedly.

Dudley learned his new name quickly, and has started to come when called.  He likes to swim in the Bay off Crissy Field and is a real ball hound.

We're delighted to have this new addition to our family.
