When I (Timba’s spare human) go swimming, she maybe comes to the edge of the pool once or twice & stares until I speak to her—to, you know, make sure I’m still alive or whatever.
When Mr. Boots (Timba’s beloved daddy) goes swimming, she flings all 80 lbs of herself in the water & sticks to him like a giant hairy barnacle & makes huffy noises & sometimes even grabs his arm in her mouth & pulls until he’s back on the stairs in the shallow end.
Meet Kaia, our new dog. She is a Belgian Malinois mix.
My oldest found her in a parking lot and has been unable to find her a home. Like a sucker, I have decided to adopt her. This makes dog number 4 in our family. 🤦🏻♂️
4 yrs ago today, instead of going straight from my car into Marshall's to buy sneakers, I veered off into the PetCo next door. They were having an adoption event. ZOMG THERE WERE PUPPIES EVERYWHERE. I was defenseless. I brought this beautiful 9 month old orphaned bebe home with me. (She had survived parvo but her mama hadn't.) She's almost 5 now & still hasn't grown out of her puppy phase. & that's OK! ❤️ #dogs#DogsOfMastodon#BelgianMalinois#HEYLADYWHEREAREWEGOING
