Don't Worry Brady...It's A Girl...

We're dogsitting again. This is Bella. She is a Vizsla.

She will be staying with us until June 16. She's a hunting dog and helps her owner lead hunting expeditions in Montana during the summer.

It was a rough start because Bella is just a wee tad protective of the 'ol food bowl and just about chomped Sofie's face off when Sof dared to take a little sniff of her food. But once we figured that out, things went much better. They play together well, and Sofie just stays away when she eats!

It's funny because she definitely has a different personality than Sofie so it's funny to see them interact. It's also funny that she interacts so differently than Sofie and Brady do. There is significantly less kissing. Actually, I haven't seen them kiss at all - so don't worry Brady - Sofie is saving all her kisses for you!

The first night was rough because they played all night and we didn't sleep a whole lot, but the next night - this is what they did - from the time we got home until we made them get ready for bed!

Cute little Bella! All tuckered out!

And Sofie found this little nook in next to Papa's legs to sleep.

It's always an adventure...
