"My sunshine doesn't come from the skies, It comes from the love in my dog's eyes.."

This one express what I feel for my dog exactly. 

I always wanted my own dog. When I was little we had a German Shepherd dog. I loved him but he wasn't really mine. He was a family dog. My mom tried to train him but father kept spoling him. He gave him table food and allowed him stuff that my mom didn't and the dog got spoiled and didn't obey.  I used to say "when I grow up I will have my own dog and I will train him and he will be well behaved and will love me". 

So when I lost my job for the first time I decided to get a dog because I had time for him. My boyfriend didn't really agree but.. well.. what could he do.. I'm Aries and when I really want something I always get it no matter what.

I searched for puppies online and I found a great match :) Some guy was offering 3 dachshund puppies. I called him immediately and he said I could have one for free because they were not purebred - their mommy was a dachshund but the dad was unknown. 

I had to wait for few weeks before they could be taken away from their mom and then finally we could go there and get the little bunch of happiness :) 

When we arrived, 3 sweet doggies were playing in the garden and they were all the same except one of them was smaller than his siblings. At first we wanted the smallest one but the guy said it was booked already so we could choose between the two bigger ones - both girls, both exactly the same. We had chosen one, then put it back on the ground to play with others and then we didn't know which one was the chosen puppy. So my boyfriend took one again and we kept holding her until our departure. 

While driving back home the puppy was sleeping on the back seat all the time and we started to panic it was dead but we were wrong of course :) As soon as we got home it woke up :)

I used to say my dog will never ever sleep in bed and I planned to keep this promise but.. you know how it goes.. Angie, as we named her, started crying when we left her in other room and went to bed so.. after some time I couldn't bear it anymore (she was so little and missed her mommy and siblings..) and put her with her pillow next to our bed. She kept jumping up in the bed and I kept puting her back down.. all night.. When I woke up.. she was in the bed again, silently asleep.. so.. yes.. we've had her for more than 4 yrs now and she sleeps with us every night.. and.. I'm glad because.. it feels nice.. she always falls asleep in my legs and when I wake up she is pressed next to me or sleeping on my pillow. It makes me happy that she is happy being with me and maybe it's weird but I love smelling her little paws in the morning. 

The first weeks with her were so hard and exhausting because she was such a wild dog. She always needed to chew something, she would bite my legs or hands, outside she was really wild with dogs.. as a puppy she kept jumping on them even when they were adult and huge dogs.. she was never scared of them but I was scared for her. After some time she calmed down a little bit but some of her wildness has still remained in her. Now I love her for being that way. You never get bored with her being around :) 

I was with her constantly for several months because I couldn't find a job so she adopted had chosen me as her mom. I mean I'm the centre of her universe and I love how much she loves me and how much she is devoted to me. I love my dog and I try for her not to be bored. I want her to have a great life so I play with her a lot, we go for long walks, I go swimming with her because she loves it, I tain her in dog's centre - agility, obedience and stuff.. I do everyting for her and she repays me with her endless love. The best feeling in the World is when she gets up out of the blue, runs toward me, hugs me around my neck with her paws, leans on me and licks my face. 

If you have a dog you certainly know what I'm talking about. Animals are a gift! They live with us and not for us! Treat them that way! :)
