While I was home I got to visit with my mom and my dad’s dogs. I really look forward to this since they all have very unique personalities and they are fun to play with. I don’t have any animals of my own yet so it’s nice to visit with them.
My mom has 3 dogs. A lab, a doxen, and a chihuahua. The lab is still quite young and a bit crazy despite being well behaved. The doxen is getting so old and he reminds me of an old man, I just love him to death. I think my mom got him when I was 16. The chihuahua’s age is unknown. she belonged to my mom’s mom and when she passed my mom adopted her. She grew up in Texas and I think she had some adjustment issues leading to her premature aging (she looks older than she is). The 2 little ones love being warm so I had fun cuddling with them while I was visiting my mom.
For Christmas I made my mom a doxen charm and then of course I had to get a picture of petey wearing it.
My dad just a got a beautiful german shepherd just over a year ago. Last Christmas is when I met him for the first time. He is so well behaved but when you have a dog that large he must be. It took him a while to want to play with toys but now that he does he’s quite funny. It snowed all day one of the days I was at my dad’s house. Since I was leaving the next day I went outside to catch snowflakes in my mouth and then decided to make a small snowman. Mago came out to play in the snow too and when I pointed out the snowman he bit the head off and destroyed the rest. My dad and I were laughing so hard. I constructed another one to see if he would do it again and filmed it on my camera.
I can’t wait for my next visit home to play with my little “brothers” and “sister”.
