puppies and a roadtrip
Yesterday me, Kelly and Nancy took a roadtrip to Plymouth, Indiana. Well not really. We went to a town ( I forget the name) that is probably the tiniest one I have ever seen, actually it was not even a town. There were only a few houses in the middle of nowhere. It was pretty, though.
Ok, you are probably wondering why we did that. Well, my hostfamily thinks they need a third dog and that it has to be a golden retriever. Last week they found a note in the papers from a breeder whose puppies will be ready to pick up right after spring break, when they want to get the dog. Nancy called and yesterday we went out there to look at the puppies and to pick one out.
So, we went on that almost 2 hour long roadtrip through Indiana and it was really kinda neat to see more of the state (although there is not really a lot to see). When we arrived at the breeder's house, we were welcomed by a really nice, old couple. Their house is amazing; it is a little bit like a museum. It is really old and you could tell that those people lived there their whole live. Probably even their parents.
Ok, now, it is hard to believe, but it is true. They have around 45 golden retrievers at the moment!! At least 10 big ones (and they are really big), then they have three litters of puppies, one older one and two that are only four weeks old.
The people told us, they had never had so many...
The big ones were outside, but at night they are always inside the house. You should think it would smell and that the house is dirty, but actually it was really clean and didn't smell at all.
Well, I am a little bit lazy right now, but I wanna finish the story. So I am just gonna tell you, that the puppies were sooo cute and tiny. They always fell asleep in my arms!! =) So cute!
After we spend almost one and a half hours there, we finally picked one out. The smallest and lightest one...
We are going to pick him up after spring break! Well, the house is gonna be full then!
Tonight me, Maria and her hostmom will go to the ballett. I am excited to see, how it's gonna be!
Hy Eva!
Also dass ihr zwei stunden lang gefahren seid, nur um einen Hund auszusuchen, finde ich schon erstaunlich. Ist ja nicht wirklich ein Katzensprung ;).
Du musst mir unbedingt erzählen, wie es beim Ballett war, ich wollte ja auch immer mal eins sehen (die Karten sind nur so unendlich teuer).
Hab eine Überraschung für dich, dauert nur noch etwas!!!
Das Turnier gestern war echt cool, haben den ersten Platz gemacht. Aber vll haben dir deine Eltern schon davon erzählt...
Hab dich unendlich doll lieb und vermisse dich so sehr!
Deine Alex
