Wietse and I are proud parents of a brown labrador beauty. We have wanted a dog since living in Chicago. Knowing that we would be moving 3,000 miles away, we thought we should wait until we were in our new homeland.
It has been 2 1/2 months since my arrival in Holland and Wietse could not wait a day longer. We ran out of reasons why we shouldn't get a dog. After Wietse's extensive research and preparation to bring our little one home, we set out on Saturday morning to Cow-land.
We arrived and were pleased to see dog loving people and a nice home. When we came upon the 5 puppies (4 brown girls and 1 black girl), I was overwhelmed with so much excitement, that it froze me. They were all so adorable, but only 2 seemed really interested in Wietse and I. We admired "Bella's" indepedence and constant eye contact. She was fun loving and playful with her sisters, but never took her eyes off Wietse or I. We were sold on those beautiful brown eyes and so excited to bring Bella to her new home and surroundings. Based on the family tree, she is 98% labrador and we think the other; 2% bear. She looks like a little cub bear.
Puppies are the most innocent loving creatures anyone could ask for. And to date, 30 hours later, our 8 week old puppy has not had any accidents in the house. She is a bunde of joy and has already stolen our hearts. However, I do look forward to a full night's rest.
