New best friend…

Things have been busy for our family. Mom and Dad finally got around to getting a dog. They’ve been thinking about that for sometime and finally made the decision. They’re getting a Goldendoodle from a breeder in Minnesota. The dog is three years old. They will fly up this week to get him.

Their plan to get a dog made me rethink about my interest in getting a dog. Last time it just didn’t work out but I decided I was ready to try again. I looked around and found this girl needed a home.

Her name is Meiyo and she’s a three year old Akita. Her family was moving and couldn’t take her with them. A couple of weeks ago I got in contact with them and got more information on her-good with cats, knows commands, etc. Last Saturday I drove from Tucson to Chinle, Arizona to meet her. She was very friendly and took to me immediately. I adopted her and brought her home. It’s a good thing she loves car rides as it’s a seven hour drive from Chinle to Tucson.

The cats were less than thrilled with her arrival, but have gotten used to her. Only issue she has is separation anxiety, but I come home at lunchtime and am giving her all the attention she can take. She’s very well behaved and seems to be happy. I look forward to walking her in the morning when it’s nice and cool. She isn’t bothered by traffic or people, which is important since I live downtown and the streets we walk along include very busy ones.

She’s a great exercise partner too. Weekdays we walk twice a day roughly 30 minutes each. Weekends we walk twice a day, maybe an hour in the morning and half an hour in the afternoon. My pedometer shows a significant increase in the number of steps each day since she arrived.

She’s a very fine dog. Her previous owner was very sad to have to give her up. Fortunately I own my place and State Farm doesn’t care what kind of dog you own if it’s well behaved.
