Introducing our newest addition,
Now and Then Vanderbilt with McCrystal
Vander made a very brave journey from Germany, under the care of our good friend Melanie Portz, whom I will never be able to thank enough for taking such good care of him. His trip in a crate was approximately 15 hrs, one stop in Frankfurt.
I picked up Melanie & Vander at LAX airport. We both looked at each other and looked at Vander and started crying. It was such a joy to see such a happy content puppy after such a long trip. We stopped by a nearby park so I could clean up his crate and Mel could give Vander a drink and have him do his biz. He hopped out of that crate on the lead like he was at home already. Happy and a very curious confident fellow. Melanie bonded with Vander for 2 days before he came and then thankfully she spent a week with us here, which was the perfect transition as Vander was very fond of Melanie, and vice verse. Melanie during the week taught Vander to love the water at the beach as well as our pool. Thank you Melanie without you this would not have been possible.
Also many thanks to Sylke and Helga Werner for allowing me to have their precious boy. He is everything I had hoped for and more. He has fit in perfectly with our family.
