Pets are a wonderful addition to humanity if you ask me because they embody empathy, loyalty, friendship, comfort and all of that but at the same time, they should be treated with respect love and care.
I have been opportune to live with pets and I cannot count the numerous times I have had to laugh out loud through their funny gesture, the only thing left for my pet is to speak haha.
There's never a boring moment with my beloved Shadows, she's so vibrant and full of life and more to that she's so observant, it's funny how our pets can tell when something is wrong, the way she whimpers when she misses me or needs my attention makes me smile so much.
Shadows is very obedient and intelligent, she listens to simple instructions and she doesn't joke with her momma (me), you dare not mess around me or else you'll see crazy.
I bought her when she was very young and naive, I had to train her from scratch, how to sit, shake, attack and defend( for protection), I taught her to never eat from the floor and never eat with another plate.
Shadows would carry her cup to the middle of the balcony if it is she thirsty and I forgot to fill her cup with water.
If she's not satisfied with her food, she carries her plate with her mouth toward my direction and when she decides to be naughty, she begins to bark unnecessarily and sometimes hides my slippers.
These times have made me feel so loved and have given me a sense of responsibility to care for and cherish her in return for her loyalty.
I bought all sorts of things for her to keep her healthy, like her cream, soap, lice powder, and mouth guard when we are on a walk, she has her comb and I pamper her so much that if I am about to leave the house, she begins to whimper.
As a fashion designer, I make some beautiful outfits for her like bowties and panties and she loves to wear them.
I remember a particular day Shadows was so sick, I took ill too, cause the whole house was so quiet, I had no person to play with as she was the only one who looked for my trouble at home, I felt better when she got better too.
I remember when I was sad, she would try to kiss me and comfort me, haha she looked me in the face and just wanted to make sure I was fine.
She loves to eat biscuit bones so much and loves to play, Shadows doesn't stay quiet unless she's sick but she's sometimes shy when she's around a stranger, she begins to be so aggressive and when I speak to her, She'll just stay quiet and try to hide her face. haha.
I believe having a pet has some health benefits as their beautiful qualities can reduce one's stress and keep one happy.
Nobody will love you unconditionally more than your pet, except God and your mum, the next person you can count on is your pet, they will love you to the moon and back and they will show you they truly adore you.
Shadows has a good manner, she greets me in the morning with her gestures, she prostrates or stretches whichever you'll call it, she hugs me and she's very clingy.
If I ask her to sit, even if you try to entice her with food, she would rather obey her master than anyone else.
She doesn't like to bathe, or maybe she doesn't like to get wet, but after she bathes, she begins to walk in her element and wag her tail, I do not bathe her every day, I bathe her once a week although I ensure she's free from tick and lice, as I check her fur every time using her brush and applying her lice powder and cream.
Just recently about a month and some weeks ago, I had to travel for a project and before I came back I heard the shocking news that my beloved dog died of parvovirus, despite all the vaccinations, I suspected she was missing me too cause I spent a long time away.
Do you notice that if someone is sick and the person they love is away, it makes the sickness worse? Well, I miss her so much and now it's hard to start all over with another pet, but soon when I finally get over my beloved Shadows I will get another pet cause I've come to see life is beautiful with pets around.
