If there was ever the crazy puppy of the litter, it was little Nigella. Don't let the cute face and tiny stature fool you, she oozes confidence and was such a little firecracker for her short time with us. She was our fifth born, and last girl, and such an independent pup from the get go. She was the first to pick up toilet training (within hours!) and always the first to work out whatever challenges I threw her way. Nigella a lovely petite black and tan girl with bold tan points, and reminds me a lot of her great great aunty Lexie (sister of Vader's mum Alleria). From the moment she could walk, I knew I would want to keep tabs on her, but had my reservations about finding the right home. I expected her to have sass like her grandma Vader, so wanted to make sure I made the right choice from the outlay. She loved to tug and chase and was so confident in every environment, new people, dogs, unfamiliar places, at the vet, nothing seemed to bother her at all, and she was always eager to please. Such a lovely combination of both her parents.
I had been chatting with Cheyenne who works at a doggy daycare and was looking for the 'right' pup, so had loosely kept her in the back of my mind for little Nigella, pending how she developed. Assessment day rolled around and Nigella was my first choice, but I hadn't had any discussions around the possibility of co-ownership. Cheyenne had informed me that she'd begun her studies to become a dog trainer, which immediately made me excited...who better to channel the sass I was already seeing from the little pipsqueak! I explained my predicament and asked if she would be open to the idea of co-owning her and the answer was a resounding yes. I was so happy I actually cried!! Apparently we were both soggy messes LOL.
Nigella is the second generation of our breeding and without even realising it, we've managed to keep a tradition. Vader kept her litter name from her breeders at Caleebra, who were nicknamed after star wars characters, Teyla kept her litter name, so chosen for the Atlantis character Teyla Emmagan, and little Nigella has followed the tradition of keeping her litter name, inspired by the chef and food writer Nigella Lawson.
I'm so excited to be able to follow her adventures with her amazing new owner. She'll be joining the pack at home with big brother Charlie the old man Border Collie, and big sisters Sheba the German Shorthaired Pointer and Poppy the Mini Fox Terrier. She'll be having all the adventures at the local daycare and may even make an appearance in the show ring or sports ring one day, and whatever they decide to try their hand at, we'll be there to cheer them along.
