A face you simply cannot help but love, with a little soul behind that face that said "love me... I am yours". I'll admit, I was terrified of this kind of responsibility and knew it was a possibility that hubs and my folks were planning to give her to me (well all of us really, she is part of the family) for Christmas. This terrified of puppy parenthood feeling went away fairly fast when I realized she just simply made me a better person, I was happier than ever knowing her little wet nose and wistful deep dark eyes would always find me and remind me how awesome life can be when you just decide to play or go for a walk.
I first met her here when our friend Brian brought her around, he definitely thought we would make a good family for her, and I'm glad I listened.
Just seconds before this next one, she looked up into my eyes and said "are you my mommy?" Yes little one, yes I am.
Sure enough, Christmas Day came and she was ours.
She slept a lot in the beginning, slept and ate and pooped a lot. But then she was a baby ;)
Then she got her final shot and started to be able to do all kinds of fun stuff... like out and about for brunch.
And to puppy classes...
Learning to play nice.
And now she has a best friend... Cricket from downstairs ;)
They chase each other around all day when they can...
Nowadays she loves games... any games... all games. Fetch, tricks, using the backyard as an obstacle course... I know I'm biased... but she is the smartest dog I've ever known ;)
Play.
Sleep.
Love.
