Happy Valentines Day everyone!! Bella was a good girl this morning when she came into our room, tail wagging like crazy and tried her best to jump up on our bed, but her little legs were too short. So she just stood up at the end of it and stared at us with those puppy dog eyes as if to say, "Happy Valentines Day mommy and daddy!" She is just so cute and we cant get enough of her.

Bella is getting to be a big dog! She is able to jump over the little barrier we make every night to keep her out of the living room. We woke up this morning to her laying near our couch and bite marks all over out TV remote! She knew that she was in trouble so she ran to her little bed and laid down and gave us that little "I'm a cute puppy" look and we just couldn't stay mad at her.

Bella was a crazy wild this morning! As soon as we let her into our room she was running and bouncing around all over the place! She still hasn't quite learned how to jump off the bed without stumbling over herself yet, but in time she will be a big strong dog and be able to jump up on the bed. We also noticed that she has been growing a lot since we got her. That little ball of fluff is now a big ball of fluff!

Bella is finally home!!! We picked her up yesterday night from my dads house and she was all filthy with dirt. lol. Turns out that she ran through the planter and stomped down all my step moms plants! Needless to say she was angry like no other and we owe her a new garden. She had a blast playing with Flash the basset hound! Shes back home now and we couldn't be happier to have our beautiful Bella back home with us.

The apartment is really empty and really sad this morning. The landlord of our apartments is coming in today and we had to drop her off at my dads house for now. Shes only been gone for about an hour or two but it is still really sad. I miss her fluffy fur bouncing around when she runs around or chases the cat. I miss the way she cuddles up next to me and falls asleep when I'm watching TV or playing Modern Warfare 2. Good thing we are picking her up later today. I cant wait to see my Bella again!

So Bella ran out of puppy pads this morning! I guess we are going to have to start to train her to go outside, but first we gotta be able to catch her before she pops a squat! Oh well, anyway my girlfriend and I found out that if we make a whining noise like she does, she turns her head and looks at us like "What are you two doing?" the look on her face is sooooo cute! Its like this little puppy dog look with the big ol' eyes and the one floppy ear perked up like shes waiting to listen to you. too cute!

So the puppy bowl and this thing called the super bowl was on yesterday and I couldn't help watching the puppy bowl! All those little puppies were so cute and small and I imagined Bella in there doing her thing and running around the field, tackling all the other dogs and chewing up all the toys. She would probably get flagged for unnecessary ruff ruff rrrrruffness. lol. She was really hyper this morning and was running around all over the place, sliding on the floor and tripping over her own feet when she ran too fast. A little black and fluffy blur!

Bella was a big stinker last night! Okay, so here is what happened. We went to petco later in the evening to pick up some more food for Bella and our cat oatmeal. We got there and she was getting all sorts of attention from the staff there and the customers. She was all happy and jumpy! We came across a family who thought Bella was cute so we let them pet her. Bella gets all excited so she decides to jump on the kid and nipped him in the nose! We were SO embarrassed!! Thankfully the parents just laughed it off and told the kid he was alright. Either way we are training miss Bella to calm herself when it comes to meeting other people.

Bella is finally starting to learn some actual tricks! Not like roll over, play dead or shake or anything like that, now she can sit, stay, and lie down on command! We are still training her not to nip at us but she is starting to show improvement. She also ran out of food last night so we will have to go on a food run later today.

Bella made herself a new friend last night! When she went to the puppy training class last night with my girlfriend she made a friend in a bulldog who's name was, get this, Bella as well! From what I was told the two of them ran around playing with each other the entire night. The two of them even tried to make an escape for the Petco door! Now my Bella can sit and stay and even lie down.

We gave Bella a bath and she looks soooo funny wet! Her hair is all curly and she was slipping and sliding all around the house! Shes finally starting to learn not to whine but that is still a work in progress. Coming up this saturday, my girlfriend will be taking her to a puppy training class at petco. Hopefully she will finally learn to be a good puppy! lol.

Bella is getting big!! Shes at least a few pounds heavier and a lot cuter than when we first brought her home. She is still having a little bit of a hard time going on the puppy pads but at least she is trying. We were also thinking about getting that puppy patch for her so we dont have to drop even more money buying puppy pads. Basically what it is is a little patch of astro turf that the puppy goes on and all the mess collects at the bottom and you just pour it out afterwards. Now we just need to come up with the 40 bucks to buy it. lol.

Well it looks like Bellas two night good streak was ended this morning with a lot of whimpering and whining through the night. My guess is that she is teething so we gave her a frozen rag for her to chew on and she was completely happy with that through the night. When we all woke up this morning she had a blast chasing the car around the apartment and getting all cute and cuddly with us. Now she is all tired out and sleeping by the door to feel the cool California air outside.
