We love dogs – after a pandemic move back to Texas, unfortunately, our yellow lab of 9 years passed away. We were planning to wait some time before getting another dog, but when we saw Winston, we knew he was meant to be part of our family! We got him from Gracie’s Goldendoodles in The Woodlands.

 

We are big New Girl fans – and while his name is Winston, his nickname when he is feeling mischievous is Winnie, the Bish, just like the character on the show. He has a lot in common with his namesake!

 

He is definitely more Golden than Poodle – he constantly wants to retrieve things for anyone who will throw them again. He is an expert in cuddling and has never met anyone he didn’t like … except the squirrels in our backyard.

 

He is pretty laid back for a puppy and is the perfect teddy bear for Nate to play with. They really are best friends!

 

Winston is an avid hunter. He specializes in hunting squirrels, rabbits, birds, bees, spiders, even fish in the pond. So far, Winston has not bagged any prey, often as a result of announcing himself or being outrun.

 

Winston is pretty spoiled – he is our travel companion and so far has been making a tour of Texas and looking forward to another trip to his favorite destination soon – the beach!

 

There are so many words to describe Winston – funny, lovable, smart, silly, and sometimes “a mess,” as Nate likes to call him. He is a true companion and loves being with his family.
