A new baby in our house

I've been wanting another yellow lab for many years, long before we lost our Rigby two years ago. Well, last week we were cleaning house; we thought it was for our church picnic that we were hosting, but it turns out we were puppy proofing.

Magpie, the big sister, has been needing a little sister since Rigby died. Over the last few weeks we've been talking more seriously about bringing a new dog home. We've been checking rescues but hadn't found any Yellows, so I checked out some puppies. We knew this was "the one". I'd been saying that the next dog would be Prudence (the second Beatles theme dog) but when I met her it was "Bella" that kept coming to mind. She truly is beautiful. She is a lighter yellow and has great markings on her ears. She is also a sweetie, very friendly but not too aggressive.

Anyway, ta da! here she is!


Here she is playing Tug-a-war with Magpie.
