Meeting the (dog) family

Oh boy do I have a lot of new friends!

My big sister, Bella, and I are getting along really well. At first she was a little unsure about me, being new in the family and all, but now we play together a lot! My human thinks sometimes I should leave my big sister alone, but we have so much fun!

We spent a lot of time outside in the garden where we run around and chase each other. I also like to play with balls or sticks. Or my human's feet. She doesn't want me to do that, but I don't understand why. They're so much fun when they move and I have to catch them!


I've also gotten to meet my extended family members - Tindra and Tamlin. My human didn't get a picture of me with Tamlin, but sure got one with Tindra. She's big, but she doesn't intimidate me! I'm not scared!



In fact, when she got too close I made a loud, little bark and boy did she run away! She went to her own human - Mia - and stood between her legs. I sure scared her off! I feel really brave now. I mean, look at the size of that head!
well now. At first she wasn't quite sure what to do with me, but now we run around and play all the time in the backyard. She's shown me all her favourite places and everything!

Coming Home




Friday 27 April I turned 8 weeks old, which means I'm now ready to find a new home. On Tuesday 1 May my human came to pick me up - the same one that five weeks earlier came and picked me out of the litter. She felt kinda bad for taking me away from my mom and my brothers and sisters, but I wasn't too concerned really.

To the left you can see my human hugging me. We get along really well, I tell you! She cuddles me and fusses over me all the time, and I like to keep her in my sight too. Well, most of the time at least..

I got to play a bit with my brothers and sisters before leaving of course, and as you can see... I dominate the stick!

We went on a long, long drive to my human's house, but I wasn't too bothered about that either. I take things in a stride, really I do! I was quite upset though when they were having some yummy bread and I wasn't allowed to eat since I might get car sick! What about them?! They can get car sick too.. not fair...

Once we arrived home I was quite curious to check out my new pad, and lo and behold there's a big dog there! Like.. a grown-up dog! I figured I had better lay low behind my human's feet, just in case. You never know what those big dogs might do to ya. But they better just wait.. I'll grow up too one day... and then they'll see!
