Well, I suppose I should rather start off with the day that I met my new family...

It so happened that my mom's search for me, had my grandmother's radars on alert. They...and me, were at the right place at the right time. My mom was off shopping when my grandmother saw me. Unfortunately I was still suckling on my real mom, so, I couldn't join them just yet. We had to wait an entire week and a couple of days to be united. And oh boy, how glad I am for that!

I remember that day as though it was yesterday, I was already so use to travelling that the day they picked me up (it was a public holiday to be exact!)...man, I was so excited, I was all over them and sniffing out my new surroundings.

That day they took a detour to the vet and didn't even tell me. I was a good girl though and didn't even cry....you should have seen the needle. I DIDN'T even cry!

At that time she didn't have a name for me either...my mom wanted to check me out a little to see how my personality goes and then name me by that. She did surf the internet frequently looking. My dad was in England at the time and they chatted every day online. I know she was thinking of the name Starbuck because:

1. it's their favourite coffee in all the world

2. it's a character in one of their favourite shows of all times too: Battlestar Gallactica

So, that wasn't much of a choice in both their minds...but my mom didn't think it suited me so, the search continued. I am now happy to report that I am the proud owner of the name KULA :0)

Kula is of hawaiian "descent" and it means Golden One. You should see my fur!!! And the name, perfecto. I am labrador crossed with a german shepherd...have the colouring of the lab with the attitude of the shepherd. So, keep checking my space and I'll share more with you on my going ons...woooooff!
