Meet Brenda

We have a new addition to our household, Brenda. She is a Dutch Shepherd and was until recently Conor's work dog in Nigeria however now that he has returned home Brenda has come too to be a pet here with us. She was a little bit unplanned, it was only a decision that was made late last week and getting her back here was not uneventful either!

She flew with Conor as far as Amsterdam at the weekend but due to the rules for the UK being different to the rest of the EU she had to be flown the remainder of the way on a cargo flight. She stayed in Amsterdam from Saturday until today with a friend and then was flown to Heathrow. There were complications on her arrival as the origin country was wrong on the paperwork so she cost a fair bit to get cleared through customs but we will be claiming that back from the shipping company as it was their mistake. Anyway after a 4 hour drive to Heathrow today, a 4 hour wait for her to be released and a 4 hour drive back she is finally here! 

Brian and Heidi are happy enough with her, Kody is still a bit unsure but is doing his best to be nice.

Ill take some more pictures of her over the next few days and post them and later in the week we should have some more news to share too :)
