Cocoa

This is the reason why I started a blog and then almost abandoned it. Her name is Cocoa and she is a chocolate Labrador puppy and right now is 13 weeks old. So cute and also a handful!

We were a little impulsive with this decision, we had been talking about how we got enough space and everything, and my husband wanted this kind of dog. We didn't research on what to expect from labradors and just went ahead and went to see them. Of course we fell in love right away with this gorgeous puppy! And brought her home just a little before she was 8 weeks old.

We weren't prepared, and we had to improvise her a house ( which she destroyed later). And buy her food, a couple of toys, get her a blanket, etc....

In the end, we are so happy to have her! She is our little furry baby. And she is so smart!! She already knows several commands like sit, down, give paw, come, fetch, up, stay. Some of them need practice, and some discipline because I'm sure she knows but sometimes she just doesn't want to do it. We are working on "out", "kiss" and "let go".

The biggest problem is that she bites A LOT! Hands, shoes, pants, whatever... And we don't know how to teach her not to. Seriously, I don't know what to do, sometimes I correct her and she gets mad and bites even harder!!

But bottom line, how could you not love this cutie?
I'm sure she will be a big part of this blog :)
