She looks like a little sweetheart! I hope she gets used to her new home quickly and brings you guys tons of joy. Congrats!

aww congrats. Im sure she will be a perfect fit.

So cute :) It looks like she's smiling in the last one !!

Congratulations!! Bella is adorable!! Im glad it worked out that you got her!! What a compliment from the vet referral! Means Bella is going to have a wonderful fur-ever family!!:D

We're really enjoying getting to know Bella. She's a silly girl.
I don't know if you can tell from our pics but she's a tall, leggy girl & there's not any "fat" on her anywhere. I believe she'll probably be putting on a few ounces or more in the next few months...she's kinda puney right now.
She's a pretty social girl & enjoys meeting & greeting people & pups we meet. ( I was sorta worried she wouldn't like Tuffy but I'm happy to say they get along great)
We're working on outdoor potty since pee pads in the semi truck is a bit of a pain (BUT she uses them :D )

We were having dinner in MILs dining room. MIL has CDs EVERWHERE there's a space ( I swear she has over 2000 movies :eek: ) Bella found this tiny little space between 1 of the CD racks & the china hutch, laid her head on a portable CD case & promptly fell asleep! I seriously think in her previous life she'd slept sitting up many times :(

Our babies do some of the silliest things don't they?

I thought I'd update everyone on Bellas' transition to our family.

She's more wonderful now than when she came to us (if that's possible). She ADORES Tuffy :) & he has a blast playing with her too. There have been no problems between them which was a huge relief for me because Tuffy just has such a great upbeat kind of temperment I was concerned that Bella would feel overwhelmed. They sleep nose to nose or side by side a lot :thumbup:
The other big concern we had was pottying; I was told she'd only go in her ex pen & worried she'd have problems transitioning to outside. Well, again, I'm blessed or something because we've had no big problems at all. She uses her pee pad if she must ( stuck in traffic with absolutely no where to take her out at :eek: ) & has learned what "outside" means real quick. She does this 6 tight circle dance when she has chosen her place to poo & circles just a few times when she has to pee :D
She's a chewer...we've thrown out 3 plush squeakie toys. She's removed the embellishments of off one of her dresses so we'll be sure to not get any that have things she can reach on them. She now will sit & come when asked to.
Bella is not going to be a long distance traveler like Tuffy. She has nervous spells in the truck & will go to either my pillow on the bunk or an ottoman we use to store their stuff in. I did get her travel anxiety stuff but it didn't help her. (Maybe you noticed 1 of the pics in my avatar is of her wrapped in a t-shirt?...that's mine but she's claimed it as hers & will burrow into it when she's upset.) I'll be coming off the road so this won't be a problem any more.
Healthwise, she had an ear infection which is now gone. She tears & has staining so I'll be asking the vet to check on tear ducts etc. I wonder if there's not something nasty in her saliva (her canines are yucky where her lip lays against them). She also has a pea sized knot of a fatty substance under her skin on top of her head which the vet has said we can have removed.

Here's a few more pics of her & Tuffy; I'll be adding more pics to her album too so come check out our pics in my profile if you'd like too.

Congrats! She's a beauty, and Im sure will bring you much joy!

great news!!!!!

Congratulations! She's such a little cutie! I'm so happy for you!

Congrats on your little gem. She sounds like the perfect addition to your family:)

Oh my I absolutely love that last picture.

She is very beautiful. I wish we were you SB for this GE.

Thanks everyone for all the nice comments & compliments! Once we get home I'll try to get a little video of her "dance"; it's the funniest thing I've ever seen a dog do :)

I am just now seeing this! What a lovely girl! She is lucky to have found such a wonderful family! Congrats to all of you! :)

awww Congrats!!!! I just found this thread and really enjoyed the updates and all the pics!! I just ADORE Bella's face!! She's just so sweet!! I have read that if they have weepy eyes..it can be caused by what they are eating...I noticed a big change when I switched my girls to a premium quality dog food!!

Looks like Bella is quite happy in her Forever Home!! Thanks so much for sharing!! :D
