I love... (part II)

[Buddy'sParents]

this is part II of my originial "I love" post found here. While these may not be as sentimental, they ring true in my heart and I thought Chazhound could use a dose of love again.

I love...

...that at nearly a year old Buddy continues to battle things with an intense fire inside of him- a desire to live

...that Buddy has grown and matured into such a handsome fella despite the illnesses and compromised immune system

...that I can look into these eyes and feel whole

...that Buddy has turned into a lovely older brother, showing the ropes, the ways. Putting up with a younger puppy, being gentle when given the command.

...that Buddy is capable of such love that he was able to open his home and heart to another four legged friend with only minor squabbles.

...that Buddy is night from Banzai's day, how unique they each are

...that Banzai is the biggest love bug this side of the pond. Oh, how he loves attention and to give kisses!

...that Banzai is such a sweet, gentle boy after being put in home after home, after being rejected...I hope he realizes he is in his forever home.

...that I have opened my heart, yet again, to another furry four legged friend

...how I wonder what in the world I did before I had these boys in my life.. how did my life ever feel complete? was I ever capable of so much love?

...that God made the reverse of his name (sorry, I stole the phrase, Grammy ) what would this world be like without our furbabies? I don't even really want to know... just be thankful is all.

AWWWWWW that is SO sweet!!!!!!

 

[Squidbert]

I love..

Squids mannerisms.. his attitude... His joy for life.. and happiness to lick my face each morning..

Squids belief that he can protect me from the world and a half..

Squids stubborness.. though it's easier to hate it.. he's just SO good at it..

Squids love to cuddle.. on my lap at the computer.. and when we sleep.. and how he just loves to sit on my lap while we both look out the window at people passing by..

I love..

Tiki's love for camping as much as mine..

Her ability to always make me feel better no matter what..

Her patience with the Squid.. heehee

Her obedience and her ability to catch on to things so fast!

Her intelligence..

Her kisses.. she gives them very rarely.. but when she does they mean SO much!

 

[Kase]

Awww this is sooo sweet *sniffle*.

I love everything about Casey.

I love the fact that she greets me with her 'smile' everytime we meet after being parted.

I love the fact that when we go for a walk in huge groups she will wander off to the front but will constantly come back and ask me how I'm doing.

I love how I get to wake up and see her face every single morning.

I love how she will press her head into my chest and I will tickle behind her ears and we will stay like that for ages.

I love walking in the woods with Casey, just me and her enjoying ourselfs.

I love the fact that I have complete trust in her, I know she will protect me whenever I need it and she knows I will protect her.

I love how we can lie together on the floor for absolutely ages just listening to each others heartbeat and breathing and it only feel like a few seconds has passed.

I love how she sometimes sits on my knee in my chair and we have a cuddle.

I love to see her happy face when she is enjoying herself.

I love the fact that she is there for me whenever I need her.

I love playing hide and seek with her too, I always end up laughing and she charges up to me sooooo excitedly.

I love our little games we play, one time we played with a bit of wool for half an our.

I love playing the game where we are walking to a different room and I send Casey infront of me and dive into loads of hiding places, this game can last for ages with me hiding everywhere when she walks infront of me. She gets sooo excited and then gets ahead of me and walks infront whilst looking behind because she knows what I'm gonna do.

I love how she knows a whole variety of little sentences which I didn't even think she understood.

I love it when people give her attention as she loves it.

I love it when she gets to play with her 'best' dog friends.

I love how she falls asleep and when she wakes up she darts her head round the room just to check where I am.

I love spending all the time I have with her.

I love going on holiday with her.

I love the fact that she curls right up against me when I get cold when we go camping.

I love looking into her knowing eyes.

I love her little howl when she gets super excited.


But mostly I love the connection I have with her, I know she knows I love her more than anyone in this world and I know she loves me just as much.

Here are my additions to my first list:


I love how I feel safe when she sleeps with me in my bedroom.

I love she used to watch my hamster crawls about in his cage, with that adorable inquisitive look on her face. Her ears would be all pricked up but she would never try to harm in.

I also love how she used to kiss my old hamster Eryn and let him walk all over her.


I love how puzzled she gets when watching fish swimming.


I love how beautiful her personality is.


I love it when I'm lying on the floor and hide my head and call her to me. She starts smiling and knows that I'm playing with her, I keep calling her and she will snuffle her nose near my head and under my armpit trying to get to my face.


I love how strong and brave she is, she has taught me a lot.


I love how she has taught me the meaning of this quote:

'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.'


I love that she is always there for me and how she will wait and watch over me when she passes.


I love how unique she is, there will never be another Casey.

I love how she gets excited when she sees she's getting an egg and how she will watch you break it and put it in her bowl.


I love how she does her 'puppy' excited gallop to her food bowl when she knows she's getting a special treat.


I love how she knows the phrase 'here you are then'. One minute she will be sound asleep and I say here you are then and she shoots up.

I love just quietly sitting with her and being with her.

I love everything about my heart dog .

 

[Lizmo]

Oh I did not know we were supost to do that.....yeah!!!


I Love about Lizzie...

She always comes up on my bed and wakes me up and gives me kisses.

Her obedience and high intelligence to learn things fast!

That I can look into her eyes and she look back at me and just see right into each other!

That She loves to walk with me on my walks and would walk anywhere with me!

She would protect me when I needed and at the same time comfort me when I need it!

And that she is my first dog and is the best dog I could have ask for!!!

She loves to play in the water and hopefully will like the beach when we go(I know she will)

I love everything about my head strong, playful, pup at heart border collie Lizzie!!!!

Yay!

I love Ripley's attitude. It causes some problems at times, but it's ultimately what makes him Ripley.

I love Dakota's peaceful personality. He doesn't seek conflict and isn't quick to react sternly to puppies. I've had both Lucy and Nika piling on top of him and he just moves away when he gets tired of it. All day, he will keep an eye on them for me.

I love Ripley's little sleepy moments, like when he crawls under the covers with me in the morning. It's such a change from the usual demon dog, and it's so sweet.

I love Dakota's devotion. No matter who his friends are or how busy he is, he never forgets about me. He can be socializing in a big crowd, getting fed, petted etc and still know exactly where I am.

I love when the boys can get along. It's rare, but when they can peacefully sleep on the same bed, I'm ecstatic.

I love that Ripley is more social now. People really enjoy him and he is learning to enjoy them.

I love that Dakota is very subtly protective. I trust him to protect me if the need ever arises, but he has never flown off the handle for something that wasn't a threat. I love that he can size people up and still be polite to them.

Lucy isn't mine (though she thinks so ) but I love her too. I love that she is so HAPPY to be alive. She loves everyone and everything, and every day she is just thrilled to be here. I love how she finds amusement in the littlest things; picking up an oddly shaped weed or blade of grass will send her into zoomies all over the park.

I love that I get to spend my time with all of them. They brighten up my life.

What can I say about my Chloe

I love that she knows how I feel and will do her best to please me no matter how I am feeling...

I love that even when she is getting attention from everyone else, if I get up to go somewhere even ifs it another room she is right by my side in a second

I love that she knows how to behave towards people in public :lol-sign:

I love that she taught Zyzy a few things when he was with me, and that she was a good big sister to him, and I am sure she will be again..

Kona.. what can I say?

I love it when we have been gone for a bit, even if it is 5 minutes, she greets me as if I have been gone forever, pawing at my feet to get some pets.

I love it when she rolls on her back and starts wiggling like her back itches to get my attention.

I love how she looks at me when I say "Wanna treat?"

I love how she will play fetch endlessly

I love how she starts "huffing" when I scratch her belly.

I love everything about my Kona. I love her so much I can even try to put it into words. She is my best friend, my dog-daughter, my snuggle buddy. I don't even know how life would be without her. These past 10 months have been the best with her around.

KONA, I LOVE YOU!

[sweetbassets]

This is great!!

Lawson,

I love that he is always there for me!

I love how he won't go to bed unless I go too, just so he can always be with me!

I love that he trust me!

I love how he sleeps with his ear over his eyes to block out any light.

I love that even though he is a 60 pound dog, he still insist on laying on my lap.

I love knowing even though his eyes alway look sad, his tail always shows how happy he truly is!

I love how he gets the zoomies and knocks down almost everything in sight, but at 4 years, it still shows he's still a puppy at heart.

I love how he is so gentle with my daughter and shows her all the love a dog can give!

I love how he can love everyone and act as though they are long lost friends.

Titus,

I love that he insist on sleeping on my pillow at night and snoring in my ear.

I love how he does the wiggle butt dance everytime I talk baby talk to him.

I love that he can make me laugh in some of my saddest moments.

I love when he sleeps his tounge hangs further and futher out, and I can judge how deep of a sleep he's in by how far his tounge is out.

I love how everytime I buy him a toy, he plays with it for hours like its the best gift in the world.

I love how he gives great big bully kisses everyday!

I love them both because they are my best friends!
