The Intruder

A couple of weeks ago we had an intruder in our yard. A wee puppy snuck into our backyard from next door. Was it a sign that we were ready to get a new dog? Russ, Caitlin and William definately thought so. I took her back home, and our neighbours also thought it was a sign too.

She was still a couple of weeks from being ready to leave home so at least I had some time to think about it.

On Saturday just gone Rowena (neighbour) popped over to see if we would like to have her. While I was at the door thinking, the rest of the family were in the back ground yelling "YES!".

Sunday morning, little Abbie became part of the Brown family. And here she is...



William is completely in love with her. First thing in the morning he bounces out of bed and straight outside to see her. The minute we get home in the afternoon, all he wants to do is see Abbie, which he pronounces as Happy, which is so cute!

Caitlin loves to hold her when she is sleeping, but gets a bit worried when she gets too playful.

Hayley is getting used to her new mate. They are playing better every day which is a big relief.

So there we go, a new member of the family has arrived. Wish me luck with toilet training!
