Happy 2nd birthday, Nova!

[.sarah]

It's really hard to believe that she's two already. Nova is such a wonderful dog and I can't imagine life without her. She has introduced me to an obsession of Labs and a hobby of showing. It's because of her that I've learned so much. She is my first competition dog and will most certainly not be my last.

Here she is the first time I met her at 10.5 weeks

Here she is on her first day home. Look how tiny she was! (Ignore my work clothes please :o)

This is still my favorite picture of us together. 3.5 months old on my friend's farm.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ONE OF THE PRETTIEST GIRLS I KNOW!


I had fallen in love with Nova through pictures, but she's even 10x more beautiful in person - and such a sweetheart! Hope she had a wonderful celebration today. Here's to many, many, many wonderful years together.


I love that first puppy picture, she is too precious.
