Roadside Encounters: Burger
Name: Burger
Age: 3
Breed: Labradoodle
Encountered: At Washington Park, in Winston-Salem, N.C.
Backstory: This eye-catching boy drew a lot of attention when he sauntered into the dog park with his owners, mainly because of his silky coat the color of chocolate milk.
Make that chocolate milk that you haven’t quite finished stirring.
His fluffy, curly coat, in varying hues of silvery-brown, made me wonder why he was named Burger, and not Milkshake.
It was only around his eyes that you could clearly distinguish one of the breeds within — a chocolate Lab.
Burger was the first chocolate Labradoodle I’ve met, and I found myself coveting not just his hair color, but his aura — at once distinguished and goofy.
That’s what I want to be when I grow up.
You can find all our Roadside Encounters here.

Today was a nice day to be out at Washington Park. Our 3 dogs enjoyed Tanglewood Park this morning.
