Thanks Leeshie, she's very well loved but also being started on some very firm rules. She's been allowed to be a bit of a brat by her previous owners so I'm working daily with her on what is allowed and what isn't. She knows basic obedience, just was allowed to jump and demand attention from them. Thankfully though Labs generally are so eager to bond and work with people that she's picking up the new rules with ease.

She has a neat head Diana. One thing I haven't liked over the recent years is the trend for breeders to go with big blocky square heads on Labs. Bella's a purebred but unpapered, just a home breeding (her mom is a black Lab, her dad is a yellow Lab). She's got a finer head though has a lot more jowl than I saw on my other two female Labs. Silly thing will get over excited chewing on her new Kong toy and nip her own lips...I shouldn't laugh but it sort of funny how confused she looks....

"hey did this toy just bite me back!!!!" LOL
