| Happy 4th of July |
Lada loves ...EVERYTHING. Well, actually not everything...new dogs (especially hyper big dogs) can freak her out. She loves people. She loves her siblings. She loves her neighbors (human and canine). She loves car rides, parks, playcare, her toys, her Daddy and most importantly her Mommy.

| Hi there! |
The dog that Hubby wanted is super attached to me. Now all heelers tend to bond to one or two humans. That was the first thing we were told. Peryn loves us both, but favors me more. Lada...no debate. It's all about Mommy.
Her biggest faults is her jumping. We've tried and tried and we can't stop it. She loves to jump and greet you. And she doesn't just jump up, she jumps and jumps and jumps and jumps and watch out...she's in your face. Girl can jump a minimum of 5 feet from a dead stop. She's jumped over the door at day care NUMEROUS times. They've gotten smart and keep her behind the high fence when waiting for me to pick them up. They've learned their lesson.
She is a FANTASTIC traveler. She's been my co-pilot on 3 separate trips down to Tenn to visit her Grandparents. She is the best travel companion I've ever had.
She does have a strong prey drive and has taken off after some, but she immediately comes back. She cannot stand being far from me.
Things she loves: She LOVES her Scooby slipper. Story of the Scooby Slipper. I had my favorite slippers back in 1999. In early 2000, after moving to Florida and adopting Galen--he loved my slippers too. He used to carry it around in his mouth and I let him. Which unfortunately led to him pulling off the head from one of the slippers. He then constantly played with the Scooby head for months!!
Eventually, I found the same pair of slippers on Ebay and bought them. Wore them for over ...10 years I'd say. When we adopted Peryn, the bottoms had holes in them and there was no more cushion. I gave them to Peryn. He destroyed the one slipper. Never really played with them after. Lada on the other hand LOVES the slipper. It's her go to toy.
She loves to play fetch. She loves the herding ball we bought. She and Peryn go crazy with it in the back yard. She loves Athena. Her BFF is Peryn, but Athena is her other playmate. She and Duchess have a weird thing, but it's theirs.

If you don't keep an eye on her, she will take your shoes. Peryn did the same thing, but she is so non-nonchalant about it. Currently as I write, she and Peryn are going at it and it includes the zoomies.
She's a nester. She gets frustrated if she can't get her bed in the right way. Her frustration makes us laugh. ANYTIME she gets frustrated she makes these noises and it's funny. She's a funny thing.
And...she's not any bigger. She's still around 22lbs. I'm going to do a DNA test on her soon (like I do with all them) to verify she's completely an ACD. She is--it's obvious. Everything about her (minus her size) is ACD.
She definitely does not like sharing me. If I dare call to any other pup, she either jumps on them trying to start something or she jumps on me in order to block them.
Little package--lots of love.
Other things she loves : lying on the backs of the couch & chairs. She loves to swim (better at it than Peryn. She ACTUALLY swims).
She's still the only one in a crate when we're gone. She can't be trusted and it has NOTHING to do with going in the house and everything to do with getting into everything. She's still a curious puppy and she loves to chew.

| Crate! It's what's for dinner! |
She's scared of her Grandpa, but adores her Grandma. She even loves her Uncle Jack--who is way too old to play with a pup.
My little girl is going to be 11 months this upcoming week. That means 1 month away from a year! They're growing too fast.
