I feel really bad. My Mom's little dog (well, she's 9 years old, but she's still little), Babie, had a still born puppy last week and is really mourning for that puppy. She just cries and looks all over the house for her puppy. It is so sad and my Mom is just really torn up about it. Well, Mariah being the ever so sweet and caring person that she is, found out that my cousin's dog had puppies about 4 weeks ago and won't feed them, so she thought if she got one, Babie might want to take care of it. When she went to get the puppy, evidently she and Dakota went hog wild and decided that we needed one, too. Well, I can tell you that we do not need a puppy right now. So anyway, they get back home with the two puppies and Babie wanted nothing to do with either one. She bit the little puppy's nose! She was not happy and neither was I. We all decided that it would be best to take the puppies back, but Dakota did not want to hear that! He wanted those puppies so badly. He begged, he pleaded, he pitched a fit. He said, "But Mommy, I'm going through changes and I need a puppy!". What? Going through changes? Where does he get these things from?! Sometimes I wonder if this kid isn't really older that nine. He just says things that are beyond his years. Well, the puppies went back home and he's not very happy about it, but maybe one day soon, he will be ready for the responsibility of a dog of his own. Meanwhile, he's being a little nicer to Milo :)
