Here is the latest addition to our family next to our 8 year old Newfie/Lab mix, Bella:
Her name is Evie, short for Evelyn. She's named after a song by my favorite band, My Morning Jacket! :fro:
We had a chocolate lab mix who passed away about 3 months ago and prior to that, Bella had never been an only dog so she was kind of lost without him. We hadn't planned on getting a puppy right away, but we just happened to be in a local puppy store and there she was, the last of her litter left and she just looked at us like you can't possibly leave me can you??? So, lo and behold, she came home with us.
Bella took a little over a week to warm to the new puppy but now they have become fast friends! Here is a picture of the two of them recovering after one of our morning walks:
