And so I decided to purchase my own domain today. I felt like for so many years, I have been squatting over the internet, devouring over so many social networking sites and just depending my online character on them. This time, this is ME. This is my site. I have my own identity. Plus, this gives me the motivation to seriously blog as I paid for this. HAHA.

Now, for my first entry, I’d like it to be something that defines me most as  a person and as creature of God. I will share with you the biggest blessing I have ever received so far. It is much bigger than my college or law school diploma, even more important than my license to practice law. It is none other than, Sheldon. My first ever baby dog. 🙂

Nobody thought that I could ever, in my lifetime, take care of a dog. I was bitten by 2 dogs at an early age and I didn’t really like them. Things changed, however, when Kyle and I got together. He is a complete dog lover. And I could say that I kind off developed my fondness of dogs as I see him pet and take care of Amber and Hachi.

Sheldon was one of those purchases that I didn’t really plan. It was an impulsive decision. I saw an ad on facebook with his picture on it and that instant I was sure, I am gonna buy that dog. And really, I did.

He was 2 months old when I took him in. At first, I made him sleep on my bedroom floor and before I knew it he’s sleeping beside me already. Grooming and feeding him was hard but it was most challenging to toilet train him. My baby, however, did not disappoint. He is so sweet, he doesn’t bite and rarely barks. He calls attention when he needs to go and voluntarily heads to the door.

I love how he races with me each time I had to leave the house because he wants to go with me too. I love the wiggling of his tail and kisses when I get home. He is always excited to see me. He makes my sad and stressful days go away. He is such a joy to be with.  He is my happy ball of fur.

Last December 28, 2014, he turned 3 years old, 21 in dog years. I cannot thank him enough for  teaching me how to love in its purest form, unconditional and selfless. He made me love without need of affirmation. It has been a wonderful experience and I have no regrets taking him in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I call him my first “born” because my love for him is no less than the love a mother has for her child. Sheldon fills a huge part of my life that I could state for the record, that he completed my life. His loyalty amazes me, his sweetness warms my heart. Never had I experienced this state of happiness. I am a better person and it’s all because him. I love love him so much. Beyond words.
