Mojito Mojo

Bonk was 6yrs old and we finally moved into a home that had a nice, big fenced yard.  Dog time!!  *I* knew all about puppies, but SM hadn’t a clue.  I am a cat person, by heart, but it was time for some protection.  Little did I know what was in store for me.  My WAM and I were at Ralph’s and some lady had a truckbed full of puppies.  I made the mistake of peering inside and instantly fell in love with you, the runt of the litter.  I told the lady I’d be back after I went home & talked to my husband.  She probably didn’t think she’d see me return.

I called SM and he said yes, readily, to my surprise.  I went back & paid the lady $40.  I didn’t know if you were a boy or a girl, I just had to have *you*.  OMG you were so frickin’ adorable and SUCH a good girl from the first moment I touched you!  Never have you ever, ever peed or shit in the house.  You are such an agreeable lady, wanting only to please us and make sure we still love you, lol.

I had a hard time naming you.  It had to be perfect.  I don’t know where Tejah came from.  I knew I didn’t like the spelling Tasia tho so I looked back on my Arabian horse experience and spelled it Tejah.  Most people see your tag and say “tay-ha”.  “No, it’s Asia with a T”, I say.

You *LURVE* your toys and love catching the Frisbee.  God forbid if any other animal comes close to that or your ball.  You listen to everything we say, you’re so smart and make us so proud that you are such a good dog.  You may look like you mostly have the Rottie in you, but anyone who meets you instantly knows the Lab is in your heart.  (I think the only part the Shepherd went to is your tail!)

You’re getting up there in age, old bag, and we know it will be a sad, SAD day for us.  We see you limp around with stiff hips and your belly getting fatter, but we still love you, Tejah.

First day home!

Being lazy

I told her that Hoodies were all the rage, but I still don’t think she liked it.

One of my faves

I’m trying to get thru all four before I go on vacation for a week.  Vixen said she would post my HNT entry me but other than that, you won’t here from me for a while after this week.  I should have some fabulous drunken stories to pass along tho!
