Well Stella (Kari) was wonderful for the 2.5hr car ride. The border was backed up and we had to pay duty on her (there's a story there.....) but she was wonderful in the car and laid down to sleep after we stopped for lunch at Panera.

My sister's name is Kerri - so we tossed around names for a while but my 10-year-old step-son thought Stella would be perfect. I'll think of a registered name for her PEN#.

I will post pictures once she stops moving long enough to get one that isn't blurry. ;) We're heading out for a long walk now - but she likes the puglets and enjoys watching the TV. :)

Congrats on adopting Stella! May you have many years of happiness.

That's funny, Stella is what my husband wanted to rename Star.But Star fits her better then Stella!

YAY!!!! SO happy to see you today Kari!!!!! *hugs* She is pacing a lot but she'll settle down - she is kissy and loving on everyone and I think highly entertained by the puglets. :D We had a great walk and she enjoys the yard!! I will get lots of pics this week!!!

Stef just missed Heather by minutes.  Then Sarah and Joaquin came in and missed Stef by minutes.  Then Tricia came in and missed everyone by n hour.  It was a hit and miss day.  Glad to see everyone.  Hey, when I said it was my last birthday, I meant, I'm not having anymore.  Not that I'm dying.  So if you were all here to say good bye............Foget it!  I'll outlive all of you.

Good to see everyone today.

We had a very quiet night last night - she slept in the crate beside me in our room. A few little squeaks but otherwise she was great. We've been for our walk this morning and she peed on the walk *yay*. She's so far refused all food but is drinking well this morning. Mom is coming to check on her halfway through my day today - I work in Sarnia (about an hour away) on Mondays and Wednesdays. Tues/Thurs/Fri I get home for lunch which will be nice for her.

Calling my Dr. Karen to get her in in the next few days. They will love her too - she's SO sweet.

Congratulations to you and your family, Stef, on adopting Stella!  Love the name.  Of course it does mean "star," so maybe that will help you in figuring out a registered name.   Sounds like she's fitting right in.  Wishing all of you many happy years together!

She'll catch on to the bed and food.  She really isn't stupid.  She just never had a chance.

So the day after I lost Tux my BarkBox arrived with this jester ball. Tux loved to sit with a squeaky in his mouth and squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak. Stella isn't so into squeaky things but she loves this ball. <3
