She's an Australian Labradoodle.
Most people have heard of Labradoodles by now (1/2 Lab 1/2 Standard Poodle). There are tons of backyard breeders that have popped up all over America trying to cash in on this "designer breed" or "mutt". However, the authentic Australian Labradoodle originated in a specific breeding program out of Australia. They are bred for "intuitiveness, temperament and wonderful personality that will capture your heart." Specifially, they've been developed for service work because of those qualities. You can read more about them here....http://www.rutlandmanor.com/ There is a big difference between a Labradoodle & an Australian Labradoodle. My girl was bred with a purpose.
Her name is Sydney, after her country's infamous city. She's 65lbs of doodly, poodly-springy, dreadlocks. Mostly black fur with some chocolate trimming in her beard. She's unique in her looks & although I think she's beautiful...her mug is one only her family (us!) can love....
I just love her crooked little smile & pearly teeth! She's my big baby!
When Ben isn't using her as his bean bag chair.....
She loves to run & chase her country cousin dog, Bella, a great pyreness.
don't they look like an oreo cookie playing together? Bella guards a herd of Zebu cows on her family ranch. Sydney wants to play & run with the bulls....silly girl.

Cats are public enemy #1 and squirrels pretty much rank right up there! She loves being my 3rd kid & playing. Especially catching bubbles & popping them in her teeth... 
She likes to keep my days busy wiping rainy, wet, mud filled paws...
She both laughs with me & laughs at me....
She is up to greet me the minute my feet touch the floor each morning. She's my prayer partner & lays by my side while I read the bible. She's my exercise buddy, gardening guard & spare kitchen floor mop. She toodles along in the "Mom Taxi" taking Jo & Ben here & there. She's my best girl & I love her much...she gives the sweetest kisses & brings great joy to my life....

They (the Animals dogs cats and other family pets as well) Are All the Evidence we need...of his presence! All Is Good! It's Nice sharing life's true joys with others who know his love too! :)
