I am back from Germany since Saturday. The car ride back was uneventful and Jessie was as good as gold on both rides. On our way back we stopped at Fallowfen Kennel near Newark to not only look at their litter of puppies but also to select our new family member. What can I say the puppies are gorgeous and we picked our little girl. When I saw the initial pictures of the litter I fell in love with bithch number one (see link) because of her markings. When I saw the puppies, I went for bitch number 2 inititally but changed my mind after birch number 2 continued to come and climb on my lap. It was as if she was telling me, that she was the one, so I changed my mind and picked her instead (although I was told she is much more timid then her sister). We will go back and pick her up around 8th of July and then our family is complete for quite a while.
Now the big question is what will I name her? When I thought about a pup last year, the name Faith was strong on my mind (mainly because Jessie is so faithful) but since puppies mum is called Faith, I can#t call her that. Other names that made it on the list so far are:
Aspen
Ronja - current favorite
Kaja
Cora
Sasha
I keep you updated on the name search and will upload my own puppy pictures over the weekend, as well as some more from Germany

Germany
Jessie and me are in Germany now since Tuesday night. We left at 17:00 on Monday evening and drove down to Folkstone. We got through alright, with enough stops and Jessie was doing fine throughout the journey. It was pretty hot when we were leaving, so I had some concerns about her in the car but she was fine. We arrived in Folkstone at midnight, checked in at the tunnel and then the two of us went to sleep for a couple hours in the car. The train was leaving at 5.46am on Tuesday and within 30 minutes we arrived in Calais, France. It was a bit chilli over there and we drove via France, Belgium and Netherlands over to Germany. Things went well until about 100km before we arrived at my mums. That’s when the car broke down and we had to be rescued. So we arrived very late at my mums on Tuesday. Jessie settled in very well, she follows me everywhere and puts her nose into everything. Here are some pictures from our journey so far.
