Meet Lela

A couple from our church had recently rescued a golden retriever who had puppies and they wanted to give the puppies to good homes. Well, of course, after losing Hilo, we wanted to get a new puppy. All the dog experts around here decided that Hilo most likely died of poisoning from something he got into under the house and most likely not from parvo or some other virus. Though we did take precautions and bleached everything down before we decided to bring home a new puppy. And we blocked off the hole so the new puppy couldn't get under the house!
Monday evening we went to the couples house to take a look at the puppies and we found a sweet little one that we brought home. We named her Lela. She was quite scared in her new surroundings, but after the first day she started warming up to us! She loves to get out and play with us! The first evening we had Lela, our nieces, Morgan and Bethany, came over to see her. They both crawled right into the kennel with her and held her and pet her! When it was time for the nieces to go home, I didn't think that we would ever get Bethany away from the puppy! I told her that at least I knew if I ever needed a dog sitter, I knew where I could find one!
I hope our little Lela stays with us for a VERY long time!
