Feel-good Friday: Adele

Introducing Adele; our newest little family member.

Sunday July 2nd will mark two weeks since we picked up Layla’s sister in British Columbia’s Okanagan wine valley. 

she’s the one in the back

What’s extra special about this is that Adele happens to be Layla’s real sister – as in her litter mate from 7 years ago. What are the chances? A beautiful, healthy, well-mannered little delight who follows me around everywhere. And a perfect companion for Layla.

My male sheltie Jia Jia (who I’ll always miss) passed away 3 years ago in May, and I considered getting another companion for Layla about a year after that.  We heard about an adult male sheltie up for adoption on Vancouver Island so we went there and when Layla didn’t approve we later checked out a puppy – which she didn’t approve of either.

Suffice to say she was okay as an only child. So that was that and we went on our merry way.  Until about two weekends ago when we met Adele through word of mouth and brought her back to Vancouver.

Layla and I are very happy with the decision and we hope Adele feels the same way.  Judging by these photos we think she does!
