To ALL OF YOU OUT THERE WITH PETS, who LOVE PETS, who have had or do have pets, who post pictures, videos etc of pets, tell super stories about your pets, THANK YOU !!!!! You probably do not all realize the effect you might have had on me and perhaps if not for facebook, I would not have moved so far along… ;-) I have observed for years this amazing unconditional love that all of you have and have talked about. Personally, I did not quite understand it. Anyone who truly knows me knows that having a pet has not been on my ‘bucket list’ or my list of need to have or want to have. Ever. Not as a child, not as a younger adult, truly never had that ‘feeling’. Siena Mia has been asking for well over 7 years for a dog. Has asked Santa Clause EVERY SINGLE YEAR and would gladly take any dog but had a ‘wish list’ every year on her dear santa letter. One never came. ;-(. Both her dad and I have our reasons for why not yet and truthfully, for me it was we won’t have a dog Siena but remember your dad said one day he will gladly get you a dog. (He has wanted a dog as an adult for a very long time but the time had not been right. ) Siena has 2 cute cats at daddy’s and we have had hermit crabs, and now have had our fish that she won at a festival for over 3 years. But a DOG she has wanted for so so long. I could tell over the years that it might be a bit life changing for her if she did have one. For me I had a list of reasons why I don’t need a dog or can’t see having the time for a dog. But seeing over the years ALL THE LOVE YOU ALL HAVE FOR YOUR PETS AND VICE VERSA has been intriguing for sure. The amazing stories of adoptions and rescues and the people who do foster care, and the companies that help to match animals with families, or seniors or special needs people. The training centers, breeders, boarding business, veterinarians, groomers etcs.. all the pet store owners (and awesome pet bakery here in Severna Park). It’s been so fascinating to watch over the years and yes much of it over facebook if not in person. I could list so many of your personally and your awesome stories that over time settle into a big part of me to make a shift. Make a shift to open up myself to the possibility of getting a dog for Siena and Dominic (and me and Chuck). Chuck has always had dogs.. He has had many. Dom has been in and out bust mostly into the idea of having a dog and Siena has been planning for, educating herself and just wishing and praying for a dog. I could tell over the years that it might be a bit life changing for her if she did have one. So I started to shift about a year ago. The biggest point of ‘turning’ was probably having Bruno here are our guest a few times. Bruno is a beautiful pitbull. We had the pleasure of living with our daughter Lauren and her boyfriend Mario for many years. They are just awesome people. When they got their own home, they decided it was time for them to have a puppy and along came Bruno. Knowing how he has affected both of them is just awesome and seeing the interaction, just so sweet. Then hosting him here at his ‘grandparents home’ a few times was just plain awesome. While he is a tad big for me, I quickly got over that and seeing how much Siena and Dominic loved being around him was interesting. SOOOOOOOO I have shifted. Chuck and I agreed that for our ‘first dog’ we could start with a puppy. I felt strongly after a ton of research that getting a rescued would have been SOOOOOOOOOOOOO wonderful to do, but personally I was not ready to take that on. Many reasons why, but starting with a baby, just made more sense to me. Maybe next time . So please welcome our newest family addition and meet little Coco. She is a sweet, spirited 8 week old bundle of joy that I picked up on Friday. A Shihpoo (Shitzu and Poodle). She is black with brown coming in here and there. She is so playful and amazingly has instinctively done ‘her business’ ever time on the puppy pads!!! That is just amazing to me. Her night time home is wonderfully cool and it’s called a puppy apartment.. (but Modern Puppies).. it’s the bomb!!!!! Lots of visitors this weekend (thank you all) and she has been great with all of them. It’s been so so cool. Dominic and Siena have been amazing with her.. AWESOMENESS.
