| Me and my TUMMY |
She was given to us by my long-time
brother-in-law to-be :)
At first... I was reluctant to cuddle her
because it's my
first time to take care of a puppy.
She was a mixed breed poodle.
But in time, I learned to love
and respect this adorable canine.
She became my beloved acquaintance and I
always looked forward to going home and
taking her in my arms.
HUG and keep her just beside me.
I even wrote a poem to honor her unconditional LOVE.

| Meet my first and last pet (for now)... TUMMY |
HER name was TUMMY
"Her eyes seems to witness every turn of events in our
lives.
She seems to be a silent shock absorber... knowing every
detail that surrounds her.
That barking sound echoes in every corner of the house.
She has found a shelter within our hearts...
Sneaking around like a sheep rambling in the wilderness.
I became a lover of her kind.
Holding her gently and feeling her warmth give me some kind
of security.
She somehow lightens up my everyday.
She fills up certain space that no rational being can.
A good fellow that preserves and maintains own uniqueness
and identity.
A loyal friend in her own right."
Now only her memories linger in my mind.
She found her final destination without me by her side.
Heat stroke was the cause of her demise.
But I know that...
All dogs go to heaven.
She found her final destination without me by her side.
Heat stroke was the cause of her demise.
But I know that...
All dogs go to heaven.
It's been nineteen years since Tummy died.
I called her by that name because
her belly was so big.
she loved to eat.
She used to be my focus of attention...
But now, I'm married with three wonderful kids.
My life has never been more meaningful...
Seeing them grow up to be good children and providing them
their needs and wants
is my utmost priority.
I just want to share with you these photos
of dogs that are now part of
our family...

ReplyDeleteI always wanted to have dogs but living in condo does not permit it. hehe
Yes, all pets go to heaven. You'll see Tummy there :)
Haha Love the names Primitivo and Amparo! They speak 'authority.' Makes me remember my neighbor's rag-looking pets that are as cute as yours.
ReplyDeletewe had an askal before, loved that dog! he was also my first and last.. pero no cuddling no kisses takot pa din me e hehe.. i just wanted his presence... then he died.. super sad talaga..

Currently we have two mini pinscher and 1 lab. I hated dogs until they came but one dog really touched my heart, my dog Bruno, an askal. He was the smartest and affectionate dog I know, he died two months ago and I know I'll never love a dog as much as I love him.:(
ReplyDeletecute dogs! I love the last picture :D
ReplyDeletecute dogs! my daughter wants to have a dog too but sadly we all have allergies. :(
ReplyDeleteI love the dog family photo! Such a cute hairy pooch! My sister's Cotton de Tulear never fails me laugh everytime we chat on skype.
ReplyDeleteang cute naman!!! i ahve a dog, too, pero hindi siya cute, guard dog kasi. hehehe!
ReplyDeleteSuch cute doggies. Mine is an ordinary hairy mongrel. His name is "Piolo Askal", 8y old. Before him was "Bunso", who died at age 13. Ha!ha! I like that family dog pic. :)
ReplyDeleteIt always saddens me, losing a pet. And I have only taken cared of dogs all throughout my years. They are truly 'mans bestfriend' as they will never fail in comforting you and making you smile. :)
