I have decided to make my observations on my very old dog since I know she doesn't have much to live anymore, I would like to pay close attention to her last moments in this world with us. From observing my dog for a whole good two weeks now, I have noticed that she's not your typical energetic dog that's always waging her tail. She is more on the chill side and she spends most of her time sleeping and away from everyone. Since my dog is a chihuahua you would expect her to be full of life and everything but she's the most calm and collected animal I know. Even though she is a very relaxed dog, she can also be very vicious and aggressive if you get close to her or if you try taking something away from her. In many ways I see myself through my dog because I prefer my own company and being in solitude.
Her fur is all sorts of colors such as black, brown, white, and grey. I noticed that my dog always has this melancholy look on her face most of the time. I wanted to give her a hug but if I do she would try to bite me. She isn't aggressive but if you try to touch her she will attack. What I really like about my dog is that if you howl, my dog starts to howl as well. below there is a picture of my dog howling. I think my dog looks like a miniature coyote.
I really liked how you described your dog and gave her a character. You let the audience know that although she is old and calm, she was also violent when needed. I look forward to reading more about her and what she does.
ReplyDeleteYour last sentence is impressive on more than one level.
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of your blog. Like you, I am observing my dogs as well, however, I just got a new puppy, so I'd love to see the contrast between your's and my blogs. My other dog is also becoming old and I see how she's not as active and more chill compared to my new puppy. Also I'm sorry about your dog. Live in the moment with her because after all, all we have are memories!
