Who's that girl?

It's Bella! I was trolling the internets looking for a new lady friend the other day when I saw this gal:

Young hot blonde and spayed? My kinda girl! So I sent momma to get her yesterday and now she his hanging out here at the Moose Lodge!
I was a bit surprised that she did not look anything like her profile photo (isn't that always the way). She was quite a bit chubbier in person but I do love a set of curves on a lady so it's all good.
I was soooo excited to meet her when momma brought her home! She was named Paula by the shelter but I guess they never told her that was her name so I told Momma to call her Bella instead.

Here is a little video of our meeting.

She is a very nice girl I suppose but she is not really into me or any of my really awesome toys so I am not sure what to do with her. She is crazy into my momma though. I told her I would share my momma for a little while but she said she wants my momma all to her self! Sheesh!

Since she is a little on the chubby side Momma stopped at the store with her and got some special diet ('Healthy Weight') food.

She was not too excited about it though so momma put some of my super terrific kibbles in and she decided it was not so bad!

Remember the other day how I said it was going to be doubly important to have a fenced yard? Well unfortunately the fence did not get put back on Friday so momma had to jury rig the pieces back together. It is not pretty and Momma says we still have to be chaperoned the whole time but at least she does not have to keep Bella on a leash. As if! That little girl has not left momma's side so I am not sure where momma thinks she would run off to!

Note from Momma: Bella was one of five (unrelated) labbies that appeared at animal services this week and were set to be put down because they were not adopted in time. The wonderful LRRoF coordinator for Miami Dade managed to find foster homes for all five which is a major accomplishment since we are always at capacity here in SoFla. I can't tell you how heartbreaking it is to get emails from her with pictures of these beautiful labbies ready to be euthanized while people are going to puppy mills or breeders to get new ones. I get these emails a couple of times a month and wish I could foster every time but can't always do it. If you know of anyone looking for a lab please tell them to try their local lab rescue or check the shelters before shopping for them. If you want to know more about Labrador Retriever Rescue of Florida or would like to help support this cause please visit their website. I know lots of you bloggers have your own rescue causes which is wonderful, they all need your support so wherever you chose to give or volunteer I know it is most appreciated!
