Bella opens her eyes to a new world

We knew Bella had finally settled in and was starting to come back to Earth this morning. Normally we follow a set routine but today we decided to get up at the normal time, let the dogs out and feed them and then go back to bed for some extra zzzzz's until 9 am. Bella came to the realization that things were different this morning and let us know by a deep sad bark. Patrick got up and turned the television on for her and put her stuffed animals on the couch. That made her happy.

Now that she is feeling more secure, we decided to start her on walks away from the house. Instead of shrinking away from the experience she embraced it. She was like a young puppy again experiencing new sights and sounds. For us it was a breath of fresh air to see the transformation. We are excited to see her progress toward her full potential. She is the best of both worlds. Perfectly happy to be a couch potato and watch life unfold in the house and exuberant as a puppy to go for a new adventure. She expects nothing but is grateful for what comes her way.
