Can’t believe it has been a whole year!

One year ago today, we were in Moscow – I was reunited with Yestie and her puppies and we did the paperwork so I could bring Makar home with me. We call 3 October his “Gotcha Day” because that is when he was transferred into my name.

The trip to pick up Yestie and the Pips was 4,500 kilometres up and back from our holiday house in Czechia and we did it in 6 days – it felt like a real marathon.

I think that is the longest I have ever driven to pick up a puppy!!

Then we drove to take the puppies to their new homes in England and Scotland – that was another 4,500 kilometres and another 5 days! Going to be doing something similar in a few weeks to take our guest up to her home in the North of Scotland.

Makar has been the most amazing addition to our family. And with Yestie and Belle, they still seem a family unit a year later, hanging out together and often sleeping one next to each other (next to me)!
