Saturday post 5 - Visiting Nala

We pulled up into the driveway and at first Nala and Taffy were barking at the strangers driving in.  But as soon as we said, "Nala it's grandma and grandpa" the bark changed from the stranger bark to "Get out of the car already so I can say hello!"  There was no doubt that 18 month old Nala still remembered us.



Nala smiles after giving grandpa kisses.

 Nala also has a play friend and her name is Taffy.  She is a beautiful red/rust Doberman several years older than Nala.


Nala & Taffy

 Grandpa being a typical grandpa is treating the girls with Cheetos.  Despite popular belief, Dobermans take treats very gently.


Cheetos anypup?

 If it wouldn't be for the cropped ears, I would think this is Duchess.  Nala has all the facial markings as her mother.  Grandpa was doting on her and she was absorbing it all the way.


Grandpa Loves on Nala

 Nala lives out in the country with a huge yard.  She has strong leg muscles from running.  Look at this cool trick; she hangs onto her people's arm for balance and stands on her back legs.


"Walk like a Man"

 Being in the country has some wonderful benefits.  The large yard to run in and Nala's people have bought her all these fun friends: sheep, cows, chicken, ducks, rabbits.  Huh? Those weren't bought for Nala?  Don't tell her, she runs from one end of the property to the other checking out the cages and penned in areas.


Jealous Nala, "Pet me not the sheep."

We had a wonderful visit.  It was late and the long ride to go home so the visit was shorter than we had hoped.  It was so fun to see Nala's family and where she lives.
