Christmas Puppy

Lola and I made our way home for Christmas on December 24. We left around 4pm and I put her in a box I had gotten for her ride in the car. She looked around for a few minutes, but quickly fell asleep, and slept the whole 45 minute ride home. I pet her the whole way just so she would maybe sleep better.
When we arrived home my brother was already there. We came seperately this year because I wasn't sure how long I would stay. I brought in all of our things and got her settled. She met Lucky,which is my first dog. She lives with my parents because it would have been too much to bring her with me when I left home. She's happier there anywyay.
The cats took their turns saying hello but weren't too interested when they relized what it was. They stayed away pretty much the rest of our visit.
She got acquainted with her Grandpa, and Grandma. She liked her Grandpa right away, but her Grandma assumed she would be ugly so it took a little while for her to forgive her once she apologized.
My brother tried not to admit he liked her but I knew he would have to. She's too hard to resist with that cute little face. She really liked him too. She fell right asleep in his arms.
Christmas morning we all got up and opened our presents. She tried to patient and watch but she fell asleep before we were all done. She got a chew toy from her grandparents.
In the later afternoon everyone started to roll in and that's when I saw her less and less. The kids and adults LOVED her. The younger ones fought over who got to hold her next. She was the star of the show. She even made a Reitman's commercial with my neice, posed for many pictures with her new cousins.
We left on Boxing Day, and she slept the whole way back to Ottawa.
It was a nice trip, and I can't wait to take her back to visit more often after she finishes getting all of her shots.

Here are some pictures from Christmas. Enjoy!

My new little addition!


On December 22, 2006 my new little puppy arrived at my door at 8am. She was found for me on a website almost a month earlier after I almost gave up hope of finding a puppy, and I asked my friend to see if she could look for me. Lola came from Thetford Mines, Quebec, which is like 4-6 hours away. She was luckily delivered to me for free by the breeders, so I didn't mind paying the amount they asked for her. I was in contact with them for the whole time up until she was delivered. They were really great. They sent me pictures every week, and called me if there was anything that needed to be talked about right away. I would definately recommend them to anyone looking for a Boston Terrier. So, the first day went well. She bonded with me immediately. She ate well, and slept ALOT. She never cried during the night but that could have been because she was right beside my bed for part of the night, and then she slept with me for the rest. She is a very sweet addition to my life!

Here's more pictures of the days leading up to her arrival, and day one.
