Hi Tammy,
I’m 6
months old now and I’m sooo happy with my new family.
My Mommy
says I’m beautiful and that’s why she calls me “Bella”, and
she says I’m very intelligent because I can sit, drop, come,
down, and sometimes “stay” when I’m asked to.
Of course I'll do anything for a training treat.
I love my
big brother Rocco, and I love to play with him, and we go
outside every day and we chase the squirrels in the yard for
hours and hours every morning, then we come inside and eat
and take a big, long nap together.
I have
lots of toys at my house and I even share them with Rocco
and Tia. My very favorite toy is a yellow
squeeky ball and me and Rocco and Tia each have one of our
own. Me and Rocco throw them around the house all day long
and we chase them all over the place. We run so hard
through the house that my Mommy says it sounds like a herd
of elephants in here.
I love to
go on walks with Mommy and Rocco and Tia: Mommy has to put
a halti on me and Rocco so that we don't pull and so we'll
both learn how to have good walking manners like other
civilized doggies. I get a little nervous when we explore
our neighborhood but when Rocco and Tia walk with me I feel
better and I just copy-cat what they do. Mommy says I'm
learning good manners from them and, again, that I'm
learning lots of stuff from example from my brother and big
sister.
I do love
my little cousin "Radar". He's a Boston Terrier and even
though he's a little tiny dog he's big in my heart and when
he comes to stay with us I follow him everywhere and I kiss
him all over all the time, and he lets me chase him and play
with him too! I like having a doggie cousin.
I'm NOT a
barker!! Mommy's so glad because Rocco barks (talks)
constantly, about everything. I like to get his
attention by biting him in the rear end and then he starts
barking and chases me all over the house, and I get a big
grin on my face and I run and run and run. Mommy says I
look beautiful when I do that because my bushy tail curls
over my back and my head stays up high and I seem to just
fly through the air magically.
Of
course I'm very clever and a quick learner and I love to
please my Mommy and Daddy and they're really so proud of me;
I know that because they tell me that every single day!
Mommy always gets on the floor with me and we cuddle for a
long time. I like to sit on her lap too and kiss her face
all over, and she really loves that even though I've gotten
so big. I weigh about 36 pounds now.
I love to
get up on the BIG bed with my family every night before I go
to sleep; we all play and bark and goof around until I'm so
sleepy that I just have to get off the bed and get down into
my own little bed and fall right to sleep, then my Mommy
comes to me and kisses me and tells me I'm a girl girl and
that she loves me so that every morning I wake up knowing
how special I am.
I'm a
jumper! I can jump over almost everything in the house,
even Rocco! But he can't jump over me even though he's
bigger than I am has longer legs, that's because I have a
special jumping ability almost like I have springs in my
legs!!! Mommy and Daddy are talking about setting up a
special doggie obstacle course in our yard because I have
such special talents.
I love
the snow too!! Mommy calls me her little
"outdoor princess" because I’ll stay outside for
hours just jumping around in the snow and sticking my head
in it and just laying in it. I LOVE to be out
when it's snowing hard all over and my Mommy took
lots of pictures of me playing in the snow, and playing in
the snow with Tia and Rocco, but she
accidentally dropped the digital camera that had about 103
pictures of me and my family in it, now those pictures are
lost forever and that made my Mommy sad because she had some
great pictures she wanted you to see.
But how do you like the ones I sent you here?
Tammy,
thank you for finding such a wonderful home for me; I feel
like I was born here and belong here and I'm soooo happy
with my wonderful family because I know how much they love
me!
When we get another camera I’ll send you more
pictures....
Love, Bella
