Our family foster-failed, with Bella, last summer. Bella is a sweet girl, who loves swimming, playing fetch, chasing sticks, and making Eedan Brown take her for walks (even on icy, winter days).
Outside, on the porch, at JeJe's house, Bella has a heated doghouse. She really enjoys spending some nights on that screened-in porch! Bella sleeps inside, in Eedan's room, during cold snaps, like this one or whenever the mood strikes her.
We are working on teaching her to stay in the fenced yard Eedan built for her, but she's an escape artist at heart, especially when our neighbors' dogs come over and play with her through the fence!
Update: Ella is snuggling with Bella, on this wintery East Texas day, so I added a few pictures.
