To be so utterly totally head over heels besotted and in love with the baby dog?
Third dog so used to hair, weeks, poo bags, needing to get up early and all that dog stuff. Never had a little baby though as dog 2&2 were both older when they arrived.
She sleeps all night without even a whimper, only a few floor accidents if not watched closely - mostly when the designated baby watcher (DH) isn’t watching closely enough. Trots along on her lead like she’s been doing it for years. Swaps a foot for a toy when asked. She is a total babydog dream. Obviously I’m waiting for her to destroy something expensive.
She is jolly and playful and confident and sweet and cuddly and clearly the most beautiful pup ever.
So no angst whatsoever. No puppy blues, nothing.
And I do love the other 2 but not like this, maybe because they aren’t mine (very much other family members). And even old dog (lost him suddenly last year) who was mine and I adored wasn’t like this.
I just love her so much I fear it is too much. Is it? I cannot ever remember feeling this way about my human babies -although perhaps the sleep deprivation and nipple pain may have something to do with that. But I really do love her.
I have had wine.
