Well, it’s been a year since our beautiful, friendly, and quite large Great Pyrenees Houdini adopted us, and what a year it’s been! First of all, he has managed to completely take over the house as if his name is on the deed instead of ours, and as if that isn’t bad enough he bucks like a horse every time he hears the call of nature, rattling the windows and shaking the floors in the process. But let me tell you, his heart is as big as all outdoors.
Houdini has brought much love and enjoyment into our lives, and baby Madison just loves him! He’ll walk right up to her and lick her cheek, and she’ll just giggle and laugh in response, obviously adoring every minute of his attention. As for the cats, well… that’s a different story entirely. Although he isn’t at all aggressive towards them, he makes it quite plain that they are little more than nuisances to be avoided at all costs.
Yep, it’s been quite an interesting year since we brought Houdini home from the animal shelter, and even though I sometimes “threaten” to take him back, he knows I never would. After all, how else would I get my exercise if I didn’t have to climb over his sprawled-out 150 pound frame a dozen times a day?
