Hopefully everyone else’s day will shine with brilliance 🌞

My day started with thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, crash.

My one labradoodle slept in my sons room and when he went to walk down the stairs in the morning he fell down them and crashed into a child safety gate I have set up (so my dogs stay downstairs unless the kids are watching them up there) and broke the gate in half (really it's toast and busted to hell).

He's super cute and affectionate and likes to lay on top of you, but so clumsy.  He is a chonker.  Hes like a sticky Labrador body type,  He's always last to go outside and usually takes a detour through the kitchen on his way out.  Last to come in from outside.  I took him jogging with me once and he made it about a mile before I had to slow down or else I was going to drag him.  I gave up after 1.5 miles.  I was practically jogging in place.  His favorite thing to do is lounge around the house.  Doesn't really like to play with me or toys (unlike my other two labradoodles).  He would never make it in the wild, lol.

I can take him out in public, though.  He's great in public and great with people.  He will just go and lay down.  My other two will whine and my other male won't stop.  My female will calm down after while and I can take her sometimes, but I usually just take the chonker cause he is super chill.  Other two are whiny in the truck, at first.  The chonker just lays down.  He's been naughty (gotten into the garbage in my kitchen and he counter surfs) before and I've smacked his butt and he just keeps wagging his tail and is all happy ... doesn't even phase him.
