Nice, they are about in a few different adverts, I spot them every now and again.
Special moments
-
I love it when the weather's nice and we sit out on the front porch early in the morning. Abbey climbs up in my lap and we watch birds and talk about stuff like squirrels and cats. Good Mom and Dog time. Or, before I get up and I think she's still asleep under the covers but then this soft little tongue starts licking my feet! Her tongue is so soft it's like being tickled with a feather!

Wouldn't all these special Basenji moments make a wonderful book!?
I've had one 'go' but here's my husband's special moment.
Bernie a Basenji we fostered was afraid of men when he came to us (difficult for him in a 5 male household) - after a whole year of refusing to acknowledge my husband, Bernie jumped on his lap one day and from then on they never looked back. Bernie has long since gone to the Basenji hunting ground but my husband still remembers that moment.

I would buy that book! Love all your special moments..
I've got another one, but this one with Lycia, our little brindle princess we had in our family for eight months.
When she came to us, I knew it was only for a short time, so I decided I wasn't going to loose my heart to her and get too attached.. (yeah.. right..:rolleyes:) We spent one entire week together, because I still had vacation. The weeks after that, we brought her to doggy day care with Tillo a couple of days a week, they loved it both overthere
BF picked them up most of the time, but in week three or something like that, I was the one who had to pick them up. I got there and saw these cute little B's waiting for me. They came running towards me and I got a big yodel from Tillo (aww..), but more special for me was that little brindle girl that was dancing around me, wagging her curly tail like a little propellor.. (Tillo never wags his tail..) I just felt my heart melt… And I'd been so strong... So, from that moment she was my princess We still miss her! -

We got Ella as a six month old pup that had no socialization and was afraid of everything, including me. One of the few joys in her life at that time was chewing. We had several chews toys for her, but she had apparently never been given a toy and she was very suspicious of them. Mainly, she had not figured out how to hold the toy in her paws to keep a grip on it, so she would chew on it just for a few seconds until it got away from her.
One day she was sitting on the couch next me–a rare event. I decided I was going to teach her how to play with her toy. I mouthed the toy as if I was chewing it then gave it to her as I held it between her paws. After multiple attempts she figured it out and was holding the toy in her little paws and chewing with a contentment that was pure joy to behold. She stopped for a moment and looked up at me with those golden eyes before resuming her bliss. I was hooked.

Aww, Tillo is so cute!
Maya is all adorable when im driving too. She also sits on the passenger seat and she has this weird habit where she has to "hold hands" while im driving. She puts her paw on my hand on the steering wheel and thats how she sits for the journey - how cute is that

We have had a very stressful and upsetting few weeks.
My eldest girl Dobe Jovi nearly died from bloat, and has had to have her spleen removed and stomach stitched to the side wall. Her and Cooper usually have an understanding that she growls he runs !!!!, as she is def the alpha bitch ( after me that is !!! ).
However she has proved us all wrong and survived, after spending 2 days in the vets she came home. She curled up on her fav sofa. Cooper came creeping into the room, normally he wouldn't even get up on the same sofa, slowly but surely he crawled up onto it and edged his way over to Jovi, she looked at him as if to say OK you can stay, he then sat right up next to her just watching, as if he was taking care of her. Once she had gone to sleep and he was happy she was Ok, he then came over and sat with me, could sense that I was worried sick. Now Jovi is well on the mend, he knows he has done his bit. What a special, special boy.

I'll never forget my very first (all mine) puppy- I was 16 and convinced my father to get a dog- his requirements were that it has to be white and has to be small and has to hair hair and not fur, I think he said this because he didn't think I'd be able to find one. Eventually after talking with breeders I came across a peekapoo puppy. Long story short- my dad took me to the airport to pick up my puppy and on the drive it started to snow for the very first time that season; it felt like a sign (that maybe I was in over my head but all be it a sign nonetheless). He was the love of my life and every year since and even in his passing the first snow of the year always reminds me of how special he was to me. Hopefully I'll have some new memories to share with the new puppy!
