Hi, let me introduce myself, my name is Cha’s Therese Thera and I'm an 5 months old labradorgirl born January 9 2008. When I was born it was cold outside, and on the ground it came something that they call snow.Snow I found out quickly that I liked, and it was fun to run back and forth on that.I live together with another dog that you might know, her name is Ona and she is old, she will be 13 year in August, but she is very healthy my humans says.In the beginning she was not that found of me, but eventually I managed to charm her, so now we are good friends. But she does not like that I bite her in the ears, strange I think.

Ona takes care of me when my human is not at home. She is firm, and once in awhile she is kind of upset with me. Then it happens that I might become a little scared, but that goes quickly over. My humans says that I have good of that, can not understand that, I sure wants to be the boss.I always tries to do new things, jumping around, sniffing and have it fun. I have taken a bath many times already this year, and I like to be the first one out. I have also been swimming a little bit, and the small water in the forest I think is rather exciting, they smells so good.

My humanmother Vibeke has got many rules. She checks that I manage to come outside quickly enough, so it is not going to happen any accidents inside, but it was not easy all the time to wait untill she came, especially when I was younger.I think self that I am clever to do many things. Mum has a strange thing that I have to climb up on to get inside the car that is named a ladder.My human grandfather Odd made it for me and Ona. It was a little bit scary the first time I tried, but now I run in a hurry when we are going on a travel. Because sitting in the car that I like, something exciting is always happening then, either a trip to the forest, taking a bath, or visit human- and animalfriends.My human grandfather has alsom made a lot of toys to me.He has made a doghouse with a ladder that goes up on the roof of the house, and a ladder down on the other side, and on the top he has made a place where I can rest and another ladder at the end of it. These I run up and down , and I have become very clever.

Not far away from where we live, there are 2 other Cha's Oline and Tina they are named, the oldest one is 8 years and looks like Ona, and the youngest one is 1 week younger than me and is brown. We are all born at the same farm in Halden.Tina and I played together from almost at once when we were born, so it was fun to see her again. It happends that we meet and play together, and that is very fun, because then we run all we can. We play untill we can not manage any more. I think that Ona and Oline thinks that it is fun as well, they are together with the humans and gets a lot of petting they like that.

In my family they had another dog, her name was Fia she was totally white and the kid of Ona, a little strange that she was white and One black but.The first time I saw her I took her toy, her bad and attention of her humans, and that she did not like, but she started to accept me after awhile.

Here a day my human grandfater bought a carriage where we all the three dogs could sit in. That was very fun. Sometimes I jumped out, because I wanted to help. Fia liked got to be on this. My humans said she was sick, so she did not manage to do much. When we came back after 2 days later then Fia was not there. I noticed that the humans where sad and they cried, then I did not now what to do, so I went to them and layed on their lap and tried to comfort them.Then humans told that she was dead, and they had laid her in something called a grave. It had the shape as a heart, and rocks shaped as her name, they had planted something called flowerst that smelled good and a figure of a white labrador. Ona and I showed our respect to visit the grave. Ona was the mother of Fia, so I think it was strange for her.

Now it is soon summer and that is good. Ona and I are outside in our garden.There we have a lot of space to run if we want to, or go inside if we are tired. I like to be with my new family, and we are coming to have a lot of fun together. I am certain when I am big, then I want to be like Ona.The humans thinks that I am rather strange sometimes, but that does not matter at all. Have a nice summer everyone.

Hug from Thera.
