My wife and I picked up our new Labradoodle Lucy from the airport in the wee hours of the morning. She was so happy to see us, and so playful when we got home that I could not resist taking a few photos.

I have been on pins and needles waiting to see pics. She looks very happy and I'm so glad she made it finally. Thanks for posting the pictures, I was getting ready to call you but knew you had a late night and didn't want to wake you 
Kristin and Lynn, this puppy is Dex and Sandy's sister. Now we can watch all 3 of them as they grow

Ohh! Sandy Doodle has a thing in one of her pictures that looks like a traingular stake twisted into the ground attached to a rope. I need to get one of these for my chihuahua (she can squeeze out of the fence pretty easily at the gate). Does this work well? And is it something I could find at a local pet store?
Absolutely get one - We aren't fenced in (yet) so it has been a lifesaverjamesandkristin said:
I think it was around $15 at petsmart - maybe a little more? They are in the same isle as the leashes.Congrats again! Can't wait to see more pictures (hint hint)

She is so sweet. Your wife is cute too LOL I beat the guys to it
Welcome! What a great feeling it is to get them from the plane and see that they are wiggly, happy, energy filled (yet stinky) bundles of love! You get so many kisses and they are so loyal to you because your "rescued" them from the plane! You are a hero!!
Lucy is gorgeous! Congratulations!

Yes, Lucy is really cute!! I miss the little puppy stage...Coco is 24 weeks old today and that means 6 months. ....Only if I were to celebrate on the "25th of the month" as she was born Nov. 25th.....she wouldn't be 6 months old until then. I don't know how to count it....but the time flew and she is 21 inches at the withers and 33 pounds.....
Have tons of fun, even though little puppies are such challenges...they are all grown up too quick! Like kids, I guess....
What region of the country do you live in?

Update on Lucy
Sorry it has been soooo long. Lucy has been busy! She is now 30 lbs and very healthy. She was spayed a couple months ago and recovered fast. Lucy graduated from her first set of training classes (we intend for her to be a companion dog in town). She was the top student and passed her final tests in under a minute! You can see her graduation party pictures at

She has all the basic commands down, and loves to please. Our chihuahuas no longer enjoy playing with her now that they fit nicely in her mouth. They prefer to watch from the safety of the couch. My friends refer to her as the "muppet dog" and people at work first thought she was a stuffed animal. What a wonderful breed. We could not be more happy. She has these big eyes that can melt your heart, even when she has just stolen a Cinnabon off the table. We had to abandon the crate after she pooped on herself many nights in a row. She just wanted to be out and next to us. Lucy has been sleeping on the floor in the bedroom, and we block her in the kitchen during the day. She enjoys rides in the convertible, playing frisbee and barking at the neighbors. Oh, she also enjoys grabbing the toilet paper and unrolling it all through the house. Not kidding. And what a bark. If anyone knows a good way to discourage it please let me know. We tried the water gun and spray bottles, but she loved them. I think she would bark just to get sprayed. I will hand it to her, she is much smarter than we are. A big thanks to Diane for our little girl. I recommend http://www.ddlabradoodles.com/ to everyone that stops us around town.
