Life with pets
by Blake / Laura Wynkoop / Baker.........................................
Back a long ways ago before Laura and I were together I wanted a Siberian Huskey really bad thought they were the prettiest dog ever. Got one her name was Chatina. Was living in a one bedroom apartment that stated NO PETS. Well back in the 70's I was that rebel that had to have the coolest dog. Huskies were pretty rare at that time so felt pretty cool. Anybody that has owned a Husky knows they dig, run, try there best to have their freedom. I finally moved and took her to my parents house. OK that was good to a point untill my parents thought that she should have her freedom. Guess what here come a litter of pups. COOL Nice looking pups but where do you put 9 pups OK keep them my mom feel in love with them fuzzy little guys and gals. I took one and he was Kolcak. 140 lbs. Best friend he was my bud. Life got hard and I had to go over the road again. Well I was living with a friend and he was taking care of him. Came home one day and he told me that Kolcak was hit by a big truck. He buried him on the side of the road. Told myself I would never have a pet again. Can't go through this again. Well NOT found a Husky named him Baron Von and a female named Nikki and had 8 pups and kept 1 called him Dameon and he was a hell raiser. Lost Nikki at 9 yrs lost Barron at 11 yrs and lost Dameon at 17 yrs. Point being I miss all of them as much as anybody or anything I have ever had. Now I feel that after I have waited so many years of not having a companion, then getting Lakota and having a litter of pups and keeping one and the dad. It's like coming full circle and picking up where you left off. Now a new family and the same old love for the one's you cherish. Don't ever underestimate the love your furfriend has it will amasze you the devotion they have for you. Pooping on the floor pissing on the fiurniture, puking on the floor, fur flying everywhere, shedding, it,s a PET THING. Don't slap them or spank them THIER ONLY HUMAN. OOPS Sorry Not They are our best friends, protectors, FAMILY, the ones you talk to when there is nobody else. They are Gods gift to us. I know all of you miss your friend that has left you for the Rainbow Bridge, I am almost looking forward to being there to see my loved ones. But I know there are things that I need to complete here on Earth before I go to see my furfriends. If I go before all of you I will let you know that everything is fine and that they are there waiting.
