Bella at 20 weeks

Can't believe how big she has gotten the last few weeks and Millie seems a lot more comfortable playing with her now. She has also done a few new things the last 2 weeks, she smiled for the first time (still haven't managed to get a close up pic, she stops as soon as she sees the camera lol) she is suddenly scared of the vet and her hackles went up when she saw another dog. The last 2 aren't the greatest of developments but I think its because it was the first time she has been to the vets and met another dog who ran over to her without Millie being there :S She starts her puppy training next week so hopefully that will help with meeting other dogs without millie being around.

I also need to find something to try and fix the couch up a bit while there is still some leather on it

She is very cute and great pics. Love her facial expressions. We drape old blankets or couch covers over the furniture to keep them safe.

Thank you. She is like a wee comedian most of the time lol. I think I need to invest in some covers. It was a bit battered with Millie and the cats but the poor couch is suffering badly with 2 dogs playing and jumping

Try some charity shops for throws to go on the sofas, that what we did to begin with. Looks like they are getting along just fine.

Great idea, thank you. I never even thought of checking charity shops. I hadn't worried too much about the couch before, I was just so glad to see them playing together so well

She is a clinker love the pic were she is looking up at your other dog. She is going 2 be a beaut!

she is beautiful !!

yes I went to an op shop and bought some bed sheets for our lounge... they are easy to wash and dry quickly.

She's so pretty

Wow she has grown - great pics. Also cover couches with cheap throws.

Wow lovely pics, she is so pretty

She's a cutie....great photos

Pretty as a picture...

Thank you so much, I think she gorgeous but I'm biased lol. It still surprises me every day how affectionate she is just wanting cuddles and to give kisses I'm planning on taking her into work on wednesday before her training to see if I can maybe change a couple of opinions about staffs

Good for you. I think you will definately change some peoples minds. Sometimes it takes meeting a dog and getting to know them to change your mind, she will be a great ambassador.

Great pictures. And good luck with taking her into work, that sounds like a fab idea. Let us know how you get on. Have to say I didn't really know staffies until I got tinkerbell so agree with Kathy that opinion's change when you meet a dog of a certain breed! Best of luck with it! She will be sure to have a great time!

I'm really hoping it changes some minds about the breed. I've had some really negative comments in work, one woman has said any time I've spoken about her that she hates those dogs, no reason, she just hates them. Another woman looked at her picture and asked if she was a pit bull. I said no she's a staff and got oh, those pit bulls are vicious. Trying to tell them a bit about her and that pit bulls don't deserve their reputation either just falls on deaf ears. Why people, some of them who have known me 12 years, would think I would get a vicious dog is beyond me. I know Bella is going to love it, all these new people for her to meet
