Kayda is home!

My husband Tim and I brought home our puppy, Kayda, on Friday night. She's been keeping us busy ever since, but we love her! She is already very comfortable and curious. I'm hoping to bring her for sharing sometime this Spring! She already looks much different from the first time we met her!

Kayda!

A few months ago my husband Tim and I decided to add a four legged friend to our life. We found a litter of British Red Labs in Inver Grove Heights, and the puppies were born on December 28. This week we finally had the chance to visit for the first time and we chose a female who we'll call Kayda! We get to bring her home in 2 weeks!
