Connell was our early Christmas present. Β We picked him up from PADS on December 11 just in time to take a photo for our Christmas card. Β Connell and his 3 littermates (all boys) are named after the vets at Burquitlam Animal Hospital who take such good care of all the PADS puppies. Β There are four vets, three are dark-haired and one is blonde. Β Connell’s litter has four puppies in total, three are black and one is blonde – a perfect match. Β All of the 
puppies attended the Burquitlam Christmas party to meet their namesakes and have their picture taken.
