I GOT T WHEN HE WAS 6 WEEKS OLD. A FRIEND OF MIND GAVE HIM TO ME. I WANT A SHER-PE BUT I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM THE MOMENT I SAW HIM. HE HAD THAT LOOK ABOUT HIM I THINK YOU CAN RELATE TOO. HE WAS ALWAYS LICKING YOU. WE HAD A NICKNAME FOR (LICKAMATED) HE WAS FRIENDLY TO EVERYBODY. THERE WAS NO STRANGERS TO HIM. HE LOVED TO PLAY IN WATER, SO I GOT HIM A POOL.HE PLAYED IN IT TILL HE CHEWED A HOLE IN THE SIDE. WE HAD A HARD TIME KEEPING HIM IN THE YARD BECAUSE HE DID NOT LIKE BEEING ALONE. WE TRY EVERYTHING. I EVAN PUT A ELECTRIC FENCE UP, THAT STOP HIM ABOUT 1 DAY. HE WOULD DIG A TRINCH BEFORE THE WIRE AND BELLEY CRAWL UNDER IT. A YEAR LATER WE GOT DAISY(MY SHER-PE).SHE WAS A CHRISTMAS GIFT. WE HAD NO PROBLEM TRAINING HER BECAUSE T DID THAT FOR US. SHE WOULD FOLLOW HIM WHEN HE HAD TO GO OUTSIDE. T AND DAISY WERE TO PEES IN A PODE. THEY SLEPT, PLAYED,FIGHT,TOGETHER. T WOULD MOTHER HER ALL THE TIME. BY THIS I MEAN HE WOULD LICK HER EYES AND EARS CLEAN.SOMETIMES HE WOULD CLEAN HER FACE. WE HAD TO PUT CHILD PROVE LOCKS ON MY BAY WINDOWS, BECAUSE HE WOULD BITE THE LOCK AT THE BOTTOM AND PUSH OUT THE SCREEN TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE. THEN HE WOULD COME HOME ALL MUDDY'FROM THE POND DOWN THE STREET. NOW YOU KNOW IN MY RESIDENCY IN SAID THE HE WAS MY DENNIS THE MINNES. ON THE OTHER HAND DAISY IS THE OPPOSITE. SHE HARDLY GIVES US ANY TROUBLE . THEY BOTH LOVED TO GO FOR A RIDE IN THE CAR.WHEN EVER WE RATTLE THE KEYS, HE WOULD START TALKING TO US. HE LOVED MCDONALDS HAMBURGERS. I WOULD GET HE A HAPPY MEAL. (THE TOY I WOULD NOT GIVE TO HIM.) HE ALSO WAS A GREAT WATCH DOG. MY OTHER HALF WORK A NIGHT SOMETIMES SO HE WOULD SLEEP IN THE BED WITH ME. I AM HAPPY TO HAD HAVE 13 YEARS WITH HIM. HE WAS MY MOMMIES BOY.
