Bentley Meets Prada, A Welcome Home Story...

Within the last two days we have been traveling a total of 10 hours. Both of us took time off from work to travel down to Portland, Oregon where we meet Prada's breeder to pick up our newest addition to the family. We adopted a boy, Bentley. Bentley is her actual litter brother but his name at birth was Rolls Royce.

Driving to Portland was pretty simple and long. It got a little bit stormy in the middle but I guess that was our welcome call to the true Northwest. The drive was beautiful and a majority of the road was a long the river. There were several waterfalls as we got closer to Portland. When we got there it was too early to check in to the hotel room so we went to Petsmart to buy Bentley some new stuff. We went to the hotel and since the breeder made reservations for a discounted price it was interesting to check in. At first they tell us there were no reservations for us but then we came to find out that the reservations were under "Jason Patterson", which is Andrea's maiden name which gave us a good laugh once it was al resolved. After checking in we celebrated our Valentines Day dinner in Portland at the Ringside Steakhouse. It was all a good experience we just wish we had room for dessert! We had to rush back to the hotel to meet the breeder and pick up our little boy. We got to see a few of her other pomeranians but Bentley was the sweetest little boy. All he wanted to do all night was cuddle, even as we slept! He is a calm quiet little fluff ball. The breeder told us he didn't have a very good time traveling up and that he puked on himself so she had given him a bath, but we all thought it would be a miserable trip home. When it came to waking up at 7 AM and leaving back to Pullman we were prepared for throw up. However, the whole ride home he was quiet and just wanted to cuddle in Andrea's lap. Absoletely no car sickness just cuddle time!

We got back to Pullman at 12:30 PM today where Bentley and Prada were reunited. Here are some pictures and videos of their "first encounter":








They love each other and are very happy together already! They have been playing since they met, now their fluff is a mess and it will be bath time soon. Just look at Prada's mane (Prada is the darker orange and Bentley is the light fluffy one) :








Welcome Home Bentley!!
