You know how you go on vacation and come home with a puppy?? Well, that is exactly what happened to us. For the past few months we have been looking for a playmate for Hamish; we've searched rescue sites as well as breeders and thought our search was over a few weeks ago. Ridge, a two year old chocolate Lab seemed the perfect fit… unfortunately, he hated Hamish. Ideally, I would love a puppy but they are expensive and the timing of available blonde fuzz balls was not in our favor.
Keith's aunt and uncle were visiting from Seattle so we decided to take advantage of the gorgeous fall foliage fashion show and head up to Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor, ME. Along the way we stopped in the quintessential New England town of Camden, ME and literally ran into our new puppy. She was the last female in a litter of 6 and the breeder was taking her on a field trip to the local library. We were smitten!
Why Harriet? Two days prior, while showing the family around Boston, a gentleman came over to pet Hamish. When I introduced him, he enthusiastically declared that his twin niece and nephew are named Hamish and Harriet. A classic pairing!
