Queen Bella (13w 1d)

Andie and I drove to Red Bluff to pick up Bella this afternoon. She is as sweet as can be, very happy, well adjusted and socialized. Bella and Leo's introduction was interesting. They did the obligatory sniffing and circling, then their behavior progressed to playing, followed by a bout of snarling and growling. By the time we left and got them outside to a patch of grass, they were playing like puppies should. Andie sat in the back seat with one on either side of her. As the drive progressed, they eventually ended up on the same side of the seat. They played, swatted, and gnawed on each other the whole way home. It was sweet.

Then we got home.

We put them both in the play yard and stayed there with them the whole time. They played HARD, chased each other, bit each other, etc. She is mellow while Leo is a total spaz. Leo just won't give her a break...so she let him know that she wasn't going to be bullied. There were some snarls and bared teeth tossed around, along with tackles and shoulder pushes into the fence. There will be an adjustment period for sure.

Here are some first photos:
