Marlo

We've had Marlo for over 6 months now and I can't believe that I haven't told you all about her yet - she is just a dream.

We got Marlo at 7 weeks old and it was a fairly long trip home from Ballarat. I was worried that she would cry most of the way as we had resolved to having her in a harness in the back seat so she would learn not to be held in the car. We do alot of long trips to country Victoria so it was important that we have a dog that travels well. However I wasn't sure that our resolve was as good as I'd hoped and I was driving as I was definately going to be the first to break. Luckily Marlo was just fine. No sooner had we strapped her in and left the driveway of her birth home and she was asleep! Who could ask for more than that.

She was so small back then she could fit in one hand and the harness we had bought for her was as tight as we could get it to go but still too big! Here she is sleeping on the back seat on the trip home from Ballarat. We have since learnt that being on her back is her favourite position (Not a great picture as I forgot my camera and only had the iPhone)

When we got her home she was so full of beans and wanting to play we had the best time with her. Here are a few of my favourites pictures from that day
