When I decided to retire after 37 years in education, I knew I wanted to bring a puppy into my life. I specifically wanted a female, black Labrador Retriever sired by Wendi Huttner's stud dog Balrion Weathertop Nor'wester. Wes is an AKC Champion and comes from the Balrion Kennel in Wales. Both Wes and Hannah's dam, Bella, carry the English Labrador Retriever bloodlines. The English Labs are a smaller, more compact dog than the American Labs.
I knew that adding puppy energy to our home would force a huge shift in our very predictable lives. Hannah's presence has been felt in many ways, and she has been a major catalyst in returning me to the outdoors.
