The adults in the room look on in delight as the girls realise that their Christmas dream had come true.  

Mr Clark, a company director, said: 'We wanted to surprise them on Christmas Day initially but didn't want any dog breeder to not take us seriously.

'After all, a puppy's for life, not just for Christmas.'

Mr Clark wanted to make sure that the girls would be ready for the addition to the family and took Leah and Macy to visit Bella first.

He said: 'We wanted to see how they reacted and interacted to help ensure it was the right thing for everyone. 

'The girls thought the puppy was arriving the following week but we arranged the surprise with their grandparents.

'They were shocked and stunned initially, a bit of disbelief too, but once the reality had kicked in the emotion just turned to pure joy, love and happiness.

'Now they are inseparable, we have to remind them that when the puppy's asleep they need to let her rest so she can have the energy to play with them when she wakes up.'
