I
would like to introduce Josie, my full-bred lovely dog. She is a
six-month-old beagle puppy. I have always loved dogs so when I got Josie I
was the happiest you will ever see me! My family and I have had her since she
was 11 weeks old. We got her from a beagle breeder in north Florida. When I
went to make sure Josie was right for me, Josie came right up and licked me
then I knew she was the perfect dog. Josie has a mind of her own, but is very
friendly. Josie is absolutely perfect from her muzzle down to the tip of her
always wagging tail. Josie and I have had our good, hard, and the best times
together. Josie and I are meant for each other. She lets me know that I am
not alone. She makes my life better every day.
About five weeks ago Josie was spayed. When she had finished her surgery and
was ready to go home, the vet said that they would like for her to wear the "
donut " which is really just a small blow up collar, so that she would not
chew her stitches out. The next day I came home and Josie had torn out one of
her stitches. We had to go back to the vet so she could be checked out. The
vet said that she would need to have staples put into her tummy (where her
stitches were). I can't even tell you how hard it was to hear crying from the
lobby. She was fine after that, thankfully.
Josie learns tricks so fast! A few tricks she knows are sit, down, spin,
leave it, and come. She also knows how to open doors, which isn't that good
when another member of the family is trying to sleep. It's so funny to watch
her spin in circles around and around for a couple of minutes. She also can
indicate when she wants to go outside.
Josie can tell when I'm sad or worried. On the weekends when Josie wants to
take a nap the first spot she finds is my lap! Josie will chew up a toy to
pieces in minutes. Once we gave her 3 toys before we left for the day, and
when we came home she had destroyed one of the toys to stuffing, plastic and
bits of the "head". Josie will play with a plastic bottle for about 1 hour,
but she would much rather be lying down in the sun outside for 5 hours (like
we would ever let her do that). Josie's a beagle like I said before so when
she gets out it's really scary because she could chase a bunny or squirrel to
who knows where. One thing that makes Josie special is that she listens when
I talk with her. Without Josie I don't know what I would do. I love her and
could not do without her!
