Whew, it's been a busy week!







Wow, my first week has been so much fun here! I've got a lot to share with everyone! I got to meet a new friend last Friday, his name is Baxter, he's a little older than me AND a little bit bigger but I wasn't scared...he might have been though! :)





I was taking Baxter for a walk!



Meeting my big brother, Remi, was a whole different story! WOW! He is really big!!! I really enjoy playing with him, but getting swiped across the room with one paw isn't so much fun! I also learned not to try and sneak any crumbs from him either! I think he tried to eat me!!!!! I ran and hid under my mommy's bed until I thought it was safe to come back out!



On Monday I got to go to the doctors for a puppy check up! I weighed a whole 9 LBS!!!! I got a clean bill of health, however I didn't really like what the doctor was doing and I kinda nipped her nose when she tried to kiss me...guess I showed her who was boss!




There is a cat in the house where I live, my people call him George...I call him FUN! I love to sneak up and pounce on him or chase him through the house. He thinks he's being tough when he hisses and meows at me, but I think he knows that he is in a losing situation! I will soon be MUCH bigger than him!




I'm growing more and more everyday. I am also pretty smart, I've already got that whole sit thing down! Playing with Riley and Emma is also alot of fun...I'm going to figure out how to get on the couch and bed pretty soon and then they will never be able to escape!

That's about it for now, tomorrow I get to go to a triathalon, whatever that is...it should be a fun day...look for pictures!

Hi everyone, let me introduce myself. My name is Remington's Sterling Cabela....but you can just call me Bella. It's a lot easier to remember! Anyway, I just came to live with my human family 2 days ago and already have so much to talk about!
Before I came to live with my mom and dad and my brother and sister, I lived in Huntsville where I was born to my dog mom Salt, I had 3 other sisters and 5 brothers! Boy did we keep my mommy busy! My humans there took such good care of us and all the dogs that lived at the Ducks in A Row kennels...if you ever want someone like me, I suggest you go look there first!

Thursday April 23rd was a BIG day for me and 2 of my brothers! First of all it was our 6 week birthday so we were feeling pretty important! Also, we were on our first big adventure on our way to live with our forever families! My adventure wasn't as big as my brothers they were getting on something called an airplane and flying (and I always thought birds were the only ones who could fly!?) to North Carolina where they were going to live. I was so excited and also a little scared...what was it going to be like where I was going? Finally after meeting my new family in Livingston I was on my way to my new home...here are a few pictures of us!















This is my human sister Emma....she is awesome and SO much fun to chase!!!

This is me and my new human mom, I have a feeling I'm going to be good and spoiled!













This is my Aunt Kelsey, she came also to pick me up and takes care of me when my mommy has to leave.



After I got to my new home, I was pretty tired and slept alot. I needed to build up some more energy to keep up with my brother Riley and sister Emma and all of their friends! I also met George, he is a cat, I don't think he liked me very much at first...I kept feeling like I was being watched and stalked! He is warming up to me now, not much for playing though! My dad was happy to meet me too, I think he was trying to act like I wasn't the cutest thing in the world (because of course I AM!) but it didn't take long until he was cuddling me and loving on me too!

On Friday my mom kept saying I needed a bath...I didn't know what a bath was. I soon found out! She put me in a tub of water and started to rub soap all over me...even though I wasn't really sure I liked it, I do look really clean and I smell so good now! I think I might get used to baths!






I liked being wrapped up in the warm towel!!

I'm starting to really like it here, I know that I have such a great family and so much to look forward to! I have a big kennel to sleep in and lots of toys and stuffed animals too. I haven't slept in the kennel yet, I prefer to snuggle in my mommy and daddy's bed for right now! They don't mind, I'm not taking up too much room....yet!

This morning I got to meet Remi and go out for a walk with him! Remi is my very BIG dog brother! He scared me to death at first and I ran crying to my mom, but once he calmed down and gave me a big kiss I was all over him...really. I tried to climb over his back, but that's going to take a little more growing from me!!! When we came back in from our walk my mommy gave me something that smelled really good. She called it an antler and said I was going to find a bunch more. I don't really know what these antlers are yet or where I'm going to find them but I have a feeling it's going to be a lot of fun and I'm going to be really good at it!!!
