Meet Bella!


We got a new puppy! Her name is Bella, and she is a 3 months old retriever/shepherd mix. So cute! We have already had so much fun introducing her to her toys, watching her gnaw on her bone, and playing with her outside. Breck almost has her trained to "sit." We have had a few pee accidents already, but that's what happens with puppies. We had a great fist night. She whined for about 5 minutes after we put her in the kennel, but once we quieted down, she was quiet for the rest of the night! I hope this is a trend that continues! I am just worried about her not being happy pinned up on the days I have to work.
She already has separation anxiety from Breck when he is gone. When he was grilling dinner just outside last night, Bella whined and watched waiting for him to come back inside. And when Breck left fer work this morning, she went around looking for him and whining. She loves him already!
Spike isn't too crazy about her. He hisses but fortunately doesn't have any claws! So he isn't mean, just scared.
Breck and I just love the newest addition to our family!

Spring is here!

It is a beautiful spring day! I am sitting here with the windows and doors open enjoying the sun shining in. Breck is home with me now. He is enjoying the flexibility of his new job! Life is good. :)
