Jacoby

Our new goldendoodle's official name: Jacoby
He is so much fun. I am exhausted and he is a lot of work. But, it is so worth it. Matt is absolutely in love with him.

We brought him home on Friday in the morning. We went to the breeder's house around 11 and were hoping to spend some time with her but she had very recently been in a serious car crash and was about to go to a doctor's appointment. That was okay though, we asked all of our questions very quickly and go out of there.

The car ride was interesting. Matt held Jacoby but then he began to cry. So, he put him on the floor by his feet and he calmed down. When we arrived home, we immediately brought him to the potty area and he peed! Since then, he has figured out that that area is the "potty area" and goes there when he needs to.

He has had a few accidents but they were small and corrected quickly. He loves his crate and puts all of his toys in there and sleeps with all of them. He doesn't like it for the first few moments right before bed time, but he calms down quickly. He sleeps well, but does need to go out a few times during the night because he is only 9 weeks old.

He gets along well with everyone and absolutely loves to play. Gracie is slowly getting used to him being around and actually has played with him a few times. Hopefully they will be friends soon.

Jacoby is also growing out of control. He weighed 8.6 pounds the week before he came home. I weighed him yesterday and he was 13.6 pounds! He is already taller than Gracie and weighs almost as much as she does! He also has huge paws. I have a feeling he might get BIG.
