After a time of big changes and deep sorrow from suddenly losing my husband, something lovely also happened that I haven’t talked about until now. For several years, I had been planning to welcome a new brown Labrador into the family. I had to wait a little while for her from the kennel I chose, Lab Adventure’s in Denmark, and just before my vacation this year—when I had planned to travel to Denmark to pick up my new girl—my husband passed away.
But knowing myself, I knew I needed this little girl to help me process everything that had happened. I also know that he would have wanted me to bring this little brown girl home, so even though it was very hard, I went to Denmark with the help of my good friend Marie. Together we visited Helle and Noa, and yes, we brought Stina back with us. And oh, what a good girl she is. But the yellow girl I had also booked from Kennel Farbourne in the Netherlands I had to cancel; it would have been too much to handle by myself: two young dogs and then everything that comes along with that. So I hope I can bring a new yellow girl into the family next year or a little later.
Introducing her to the rest of the pack was a bit difficult with the girls at first, but the boys fell in love with her right away. As I suspected, she is now best friends with Freya and Maja too, and Freya has become her favorite playmate.
She is such a good girl. Normally a puppy is a real handful, but this little lady is so well-behaved—she listens when you say no and doesn’t damage anything. This is of course thanks to Noa and Helle, who took care of her a bit longer because of the import rules.
My 2 black boys who are now years old, and offcourse are having there issues, are totally in love with her and it is so nice to see how they keep an eye on her.
Here some pictures of my new girl Lab Adventure’s Java also called Stina ❤
A big thanks to Helle and Noa from Lab Adventure’s kennel for letting me having this wonderful girl!
