Show Us Your Life - PETS

”Show Us Your Life with Kelly's Korner”

It was "show us your pet" day at Kelly's Korner. I wasn't planning on participating. (That's obvious given this delayed response.) But, I just couldn't pass up the chance to tell others about Chloe, my soon to be 4 year-old Maltese.

I got Chloe right after my divorce.  I was still living with my parents and didn't want to go back to an empty house.  My friend, Cara, had a Matlese and highly recommended the breed.  When I found out they didn't shed, I was sold. 

From her first night with me, she's never gotten me up in the middle of the night, and she lets me sleep as late as I want.  She loves cheese, car rides, shoelaces, going on walks, her little, green dog, belly rubs, going to my mom and dad's, a pile of clean towels, running the halls at school, company, and looking out the front door.



She hates going to the groomer, bows in her hair, and staying at home by herself for too long.  (She has ways of getting even!)

While Chloe is wonderful and patient with kids, I can't say the same thing about how she behaves when she's around other dogs.  She feels the need to bully them, especially bigger dogs! 

Chloe is full of energy, loving, friendly, and so much company.
It's nice to have someone to come home to!
