Bella and human friends

For those who are not subscribed to Facebook, here is a very short video of Jeremy playing catch with Bella: http://www.archive.org/details/ASimonJeremyandBella/  - clearly our first assessment of her not being a 'ball dog' were wrong; she can be quite playful, although in a very mellow way.  She reminds me how a baby elephant might play.

Speaking of play, I thought I'd share some other photos of Jeremy with his friends. You can see from the previous post how fond he is of Lola; he also has special connections with Jacob (pictured above on the rock during our hike last Saturday), Luca (a photo from his playdate yesterday, below) and other friends from school.   Not to mention our grown-up friends; Sunday night Jeremy went to Casa Bonita for the first time with friends Ryan and Brian. We are so blessed with good friends!
