My previous dog died a couple years back, and my dad's been hankering for a new mutt, ever since. My mum isn't much of an animal person, so we had to get the dog on her terms (she picked the breed, gender, etc.).
In the end, we got a (hilariously named) cockapoo, her name's Sadie:


We've had her for a while, now, and these pics are a couple months old. But, without eliminating my masculinity, I cannot get over how cute she is.
