We have a new outdoor adventurer in the family. His name is Mater and he is our 11 week old Aussiedoodle. Rachael’s allergic to nearly all dogs and cats, so we had to find a hypoallergenic breed. Those are mostly poodles and the new “designer dog” poodle mixes. When we went to look at puppies, I had no idea we would end up bringing Mater home. My love for Australian Shepherds was the clincher, though. Mater seemed to be the right fit for the family. He has been so well tempered and he’s quite smart. He’s healthy, too.
We bought him a PFD (personal flotation device) because, like it or not, Mater is going to be a kayaking fool. We also got him all of his other goodies, too. Chew toys, food/water bowls, crate, etc. NO other clothes.



Hi Mater!!!!!
Mater is a cute one isn’t he? I didn’t know they had hypo-allergenic dogs. I’ll have to remember that.
