Chevrolet


As I was leaving school today my grandmother called to tell me that my puppy has passed away. :( He was only 3 years old so he is still my puppy to me. I cried for a few hours and then finally brought myself to look at some pictures of him. Memories of him have been flooding me and are helping me cope. My son told me in his gibber gabber "Ma, all dogs go to heaven" :) I know that my ChevyChev is in heaven :) I miss the days when I worked at Hooters and I would bring him home some buttered shrimp. mmh the best shrimp I have ever had. To keep a job there you have to be really fit and we would go jogging together everyday. :) I got lost a few times and he always led us back home :) He use to love racing me to see who could stay in the lead and then if I was winning he would nudge me and knock me sideways hahah my little cheater. Afterwards we always wrestled in the front yard. Oh how he loved to jump on my shoulders and knock me down so he could lick my face. :) Sometimes my father would join in and Chevy thought he had to protect me so he would grab my beltloop and yank me on the ground then sit on me so nobody could get to me hahaha that silly doggie. His favorite thing to do was stand over me and sit on me on the couch so nobody could get near me hahaha if I was in my bedroom nobody could walk down the hallway or use the bathroom; he would stand guard and let nobody pass. It sure got me in trouble sometimes; however I would still do it all over again. I miss him being a bedhog; somehow I always ended up on the foot of the bed or asleep on the loveseat in my room. He didn't like sharing anything even the couch. hahaha he loved to get behind people and then lay down and press his feet against the couch and push with his body until whoever was on the couch would end up in the floor haha. He was very well behaved though; waited his turn for everything sat in the next room while we ate and always listened when commanded to do something. He loved balloons! We were in trouble if he saw a balloon it was done for; he could not sleep until it was popped. We played a trick once and hit over one hundred balloons throughout the house. It took him three hours to find them all :) When my brother was deployed and I was left home alone during those months it got scary sometimes. My neighbor who was a retired sniper in the FBI came over one night during a very bad storm and found us under the kitchen table together. Hahah I was a 16 year old girl bawling my eyes out and he was howling his head off hahaha. I bet that was a sight to see....My family ended up adopting 10 cats and at first he barked a lot at them. He got in so much trouble he learned to be like a sibling to them and aggravate them when he thought we weren't watching. One night I was on the couch watching my favorite show, Law and Order: SVU, when I kept hearing teeth hitting eachother. I looked over and there was my Chevy up on his hind legs at the kitchen counter with 3 cats cornered and he was...you guess it!! Silent Barking is what I call it hahahha. He was opening and closing his mouth as if barking but no sound was coming out. hahaha the funniest thing we ever saw!....I remember riding his back around the house and yard. He loved getting inbetween peoples legs and lifting you up with his head then riding you on his back. I got to ride him and thankfully my little boy got to ride his back a few times before he went home to the Lord! Now that you have heard all about my baby who is in Heaven now..Tell me some stories about you and your fluff balls :) I would enjoy to hear stories from everyone :)
