Giulietta arrives

Giulietta arrived safe and sound at the San Francisco International Airport in California today, from Milan International Airport in Italy. She had to stay overnight in Paris and board the next flight because the cargo temperature was too low in the original airplane...poor thing! Air France took good care of her, though, and she was in happy spirits when we saw her for the first time. We bathed her as best we could with a damp washcloth, gave her jerky treats and water, and she slept on my lap the entire trip home!

Morgan found Giulietta

We had asked Morgan Ivaldi (Romeo's breeder) to help us find a female Cane Corso puppy, and he traveled to Rome to evaluate this litter of puppies. He picked this fawn female, who was the most robust of the litter and sent us photos he took of her. She was already named Arianna (which we didn't know until we received her pedigree months later!) but what better name to go with our Romeo than Giulietta?
