I cannot begin to explain and share the joy in my heart when I open the door in the morning to let the dogs out and they go tearing out into the yard! Chloe is like a race car, but then she's only about 6 years old. Tequila, being the old man with a bad back that he is, takes his time and has to investigate and water every bush in the yard. Same when I call them in for their breakfast. She comes tearing across the yard and he is trotting along a whole lot slower. However, they both bring me much JOY! Making them happy truly makes me happy..
Even though Mr. Richard worked on the gates and I also put a block in the small gap that was left, I was very unsure about Tequila getting out of the yard. I had no fear for Chloe as I knew she would go do her thing and come back quickly for breakfast. That girl is so like Renniew in so many ways.
I went to the door and called him a few times and he didn't come so the last time I went down the stairs and was about to go search when I saw him at MY gate looking for a way out! He is such a brat! But he came when I called him because he knew he was caught! I always praise him when he does come in and am hoping it will get better as he realizes he ain't getting out! I am so much happier letting him roam the yard and investigate just where all those cats were last night.. I love him so much. Tequila and I have a new friend and companion. Her name is Chloe and she's six years old. He was so sad after our beloved Renniew died and so depressed when I had to leave him home alone, I had to find someone to stay with him. It's taken a few weeks but I think Chloe is here to stay. She's very sweet. Very loving. Gives huge tongue kisses which make me wonder if she isn't a French Poodle in disquise. The funny thing, which was the one thing that worried me most, is that she tries to butt in when I'm loving him... exactly like he did when we got him for Renniew after she lost her pal Mishka.
Chloe is a very happy living in her new home. She gets a ton of affection. Lotsa treats. She gets to run around the huge yard and yet when I call her to come in she comes a running!! She is adorable. I like here a lot but my heart is still aching for my best friend of 13 years... that will take time. |
