We have been wanting to get a dog for a long time. We are both animal lovers but our last house didn't allow pets. We were fortunate that our landlord at the new place does allow pets but we still hadn't found the "right" dog. She found us! Justin happened to be talking with a patron at the bar that had an 8 month old all black German Shepherd puppy that she wasn't able to care for anymore and was looking for a new home for her with owners whose schedules weren't so busy. We met her and immediately fell in love. We arranged to pick her up about 2 weeks ago. We changed her named from Freya to Maiyah. She is a big "puppy"! She weighs 70 pounds already!
We have been enjoying getting to know our new pup! She has a great personality and is very smart...she is picking on new tricks quickly. We are working with her on walking close to us when we go for long walks...she likes to lead and at 70 pounds she can be a little difficult to persuade away from whatever it is she is wanting to smell! We are very hopeful that we will get her into a good routine before the baby arrives and we add a stroller to the mix :)
Maiyah's first day at our house
Sleepy puppy!
She loved playing in the sprinklers...she is definitely a water lover!
She does this "dopey" expression a lot...how can you take her seriously!
