I
had always wanted a dog. I had a couple when I was really little but I
hardly remember them. One day my parents said that a friend of the
family's dog had a litter of puppies. So we went to check them out. There
sure were a lot of puppies and we played with them all and finally the
soon-to-be-Blue was chosen! We had to wait a couple of weeks for them to
be ready to leave their mother but the day finally came when we could pick
up our pup. He is a German Shepherd, Husky, Golden Retriever mix. At first
we were going to name him Buddy but it seemed too common. So we named him
after his icy-blue eyes. Since then it has been seven years. I remember
some good memories like how Blue used to hate going for walks as a puppy
until he met another dog who loved going for walks. Now if you say 'walk'
Blue runs for his leash. I also remember not being able to sleep one night
so I had started down the stairs to sit with my parents for a bit. I
overheard them talking about getting rid of Blue, I was so upset that I
ran back to my bedroom. The next day my Mom told how someone almost broke
into our house the night before after they went to bed. Blue barked and
growled until my Dad had come down to see what was wrong. When they look
in the back yard there was a guy dressed in dark clothing trying to get
back over the fence. Who knows if they guy was dangerous or not, either
way Blue saved us and he was allowed to stay.
Blue is a big dog, he doesn't meet many dogs his size and when he does he
does he acts all surprised. Sometimes he is afraid of little dogs and will
hide behind me but he eventually comes out to say 'hi'. He thinks he is a
lap dog and loves to sleep on my lap. It started when he was a puppy and
he just never outgrew it the habit, although he outgrew my lap a long time
ago. He is friendly, calm & loyal as well as my best friend. Blue has
always been there for me when I was angry or upset and never once has he
judged me. He is getting older now and our walks are getting shorter but I
am cherishing every moment that I have with him.
