Chiomba Dayo


  • Chiomba (god is good) Dayo (God has arrived)

    Chiomba is a rescue and is my little princess. She's about 5 years in age and I've had her since she was about 6 months. She is the joy of my life and a huge pain. We do every thing together, from watching tv, hanging in the sun, eating breakfast, running and i even take her into the woods where we build jumps for our bikes. She is awesome! But she's a pain! She doesn't like when my girlfriend is on my lap or laying aside me in bed, so this causes an awkward moment. we live with my parents and younger brother, but she only shows this protectiveness over me. It's as if I'm only Chiomba's and no one else's. But all around i love her with all my heart!

    She is absolutely adorable!! Our B comes and wedges between my boyfriend and I all the time….

    Saw your other post about wanting a Brindle... We adopted Saavik(who has a little brindle on her) from BRAT... There is another Brindle on there now... If you contact the coordinator I'm sure they can give you the back story....Saavik's owners had to give her up so no weird issues with her that we know of.

    Best of luck on finding a new a B :)

    I love her outfit! Too cute!


  • Amazing you could get that hat on her! Mine won't stand for it and immediately shakes it off! Very cute pictures.


  • I love the hat picture! She actually looks happy to have it on. :) Isn't it wonderful to have such a great bond with a dog!


  • Oh! I didnt see the pic link! Ignore the request for pics in the comment I made on her story! lol. Such a pretty girl!!


  • She loves wearing my hats!! I think it because she tells me, with those eyes, to take it off my head…... and put it on hers. The spoiled princess that she is!

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.
