Our New Family member!


Please welcome LILY!

It seems to most this seems pretty random for us to get a new puppy out of the blue, but to be honest we have been looking for another dog since we started dating really. We have been keeping our eyes peeled for a long time, and come close a few times, but the timing or the breed just weren't right. Sunday night after our fabulous camping trip, we sifted through kijji and there she was 10 week old "Lily" the Boston Terrier Bulldog cross (she also has pug and collie in there somewhere) and we feel in love with her, she was everything we discussed we wanted and more, so we contacted the owner and went from there. Truly we didn't really expect much, and then just like that, Monday night we were scrambling our way to Westmount to pick her up!

We brought her home last night and introduced her to Ella and aside from being a tad territorial at times, things are going pretty well. Fortunately the family that had her before us also had a small dog, so she learned to stand up for herself pretty well. She isn't aggressive at all, she just knows when to let Ella know that enough is enough. Lily has a pretty laid back, sweet personality and I am confident they will be lovely playmates and sisters in no time.

The family that had her before us, also did a wonderful job crate training Lily which is helping a lot. I must say having Colin around this time around with a puppy makes life a lot easier -and I can already tell that Lily has Colin's heart!

So, here we go on a new adventure together, wish us luck!
