Sandy My Golden Retriver .
Well, its been 3 months since being surprised by my parents while I was having tuition on a Saturday afternoon. Well, since moving to a bigger house in October, we were contemplating buying a dog. My sister was really all for the idea. Me? I wasn't that sure that I was ready for such a huge responsibility. We went to a few dog shops, but none of the dog really caught our eye. I was told by my mother that when they were choosing a dog in the shop, when I was not there, there was this cute but not so little Golden Retriver, she was on her hind leg, tongue flapping all over the place, and pawing as them, as if to say: Bring me home! Bring me home! And so they did. The past months have been hectic since juggling school and CCA for my sister and I and work for my parents. But no matter what , we ensure that Sandy is well taken care of, and well groomed. It was filled with ups and downs, the main problem being her discipline, and toilet training. Well, I am now proud to day, that my sister and I have conqured that obstacle, except for maybe when accidents happen! Well here is an email my mother sent me about dogs.
She writes:
Also, here is a video my sister and I made , with pictures of Sandy:Dear son
If a dog were your teacher
These are some of the lessons you might learn...
When loved ones come home, always run to greet them
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your
face
to be pure ecstasy
When it's in your best interest
practice obedience
Let others know when they've invaded your territory
Take naps and stretch before rising
Run romp and play daily
Thrive on attention and let people touch you
Avoid biting, when a simple growl will do
On warm days stop to lie on your back on the grass
On hot days drink lots of water and lay under a shady
tree
When you're happy dance around and wag your entire
body
No matter how often you're scolded
don't buy into the guilt thing and pout
run right back and make friends
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm
Stop when you have had enough
Be loyal
Never pretend to be something you're not
If what you want lies buried
dig until you find it
When someone is having a bad day
be silent .....
...sit close by.
...and nuzzle them gently.
I Love You Son
