Rebba is here!
Our new dog has arrived, just today...!
We are so excited!
This afternoon, we went to visit a lady in Holland. She keeps whippets and Italian greyhounds. There was one whippet she was willing to let go, to a family that could give her the attention she desperately needed. We entered the house and the first dog that came to greet us, was so appealing to
us. No surprise that was the dog she had in mind for us..
Her actual pedigree name is Frontrunner's Midsummer Love but the family calls her Martha. We decided to call her Rebba though and I believe Martha agreed, because she already listens when we call her by her new name.
What a surprise that the owner was willing to let us take her home right away. I was so thrilled and Rebba behaved perfectly well in the car. She loves to ride! That's great, because I know I will take her everywhere.
Our eldest daughter came home from school and she started to tell us about her first school day when all of sudden, a dog's nose poked her leg. She screamed and yelled and ran off! She did not expect a dog in the house. She's rather scared of dogs, but they became friends in half an hour.
The one that is not so happy with Rebba, is Arthur, our tomcat.. He is very upset indeed. He meows and cries and doesn't like her at all. So he's outside when Rebba is in and the other way around. They'll get used to one another. At least, Rebba is not at all cross with Arthur, she even ignores him completely.
We have been running around the yard and went for a walk. She's so tired now. Hubby had to give up his spot on the couch, although we bought Rebba her own bed. O well..
