The kid has had some good ball-chasing sessions these days…
…and long car rides…
…that take us to places with nice parks.
I finally found good containers for her kibble…
…and won a hand of Apples to Apples on New Year’s Eve.
The pup was zonked from all the NYE celebrations…
…and so was my husband.
I got tired of throwing the tennis ball and hid it, but Bella found it.
She pouted because Daddy was sleeping again…
…but we took her to Lowe’s so all was forgiven.
We’re camping in our guest room to see if we want to switch beds…
…but my husband got the flu so Bella and I escaped to Home Depot.
Of course, Bella had to guard her ball until Daddy was well enough to throw it for her.
Sorry for all the mismatched filters I used on these photos! Instagram makes my daily life a little more colorful, but sometimes my favorite Amaro filter just won’t cut it for Bella’s dark face. And then there are the times she moves before my phone finishes processing…technology is a beast sometimes.













Seems like going through a training. Trained German shepherds are very useful in day to day life and also in some emergency situations.
