Coco, My Other Black Pup, Is Now Almost Two Years Old
Author: siggyCoco is a darling. She is a mid-sized female mongrel, almost completely black with a small splash of white under her neck. Her spirit is lovely: she is gentle and loving. She likes her privacy. She will often spend hours outside by herself. She is one of four dogs we own.
She is bowlegged and is “mouthy”: she will grab you by her teeth although she does not bite. She has never bitten anyone. She is quiet and can be quite insistent when she wants to go out.
She is confident, will not beg for attention but of course likes it. Once in awhile she will roll on her back to get a belly rub but only once in a while.
Her brother the infamous “Tilla” or “Atilla the Hun” as he is originally named, will want a belly hug almost every time he is approached but “Coco” will only ask for it once in awhile.
I love “Coco”. Don’t tell me dogs don’t have spirits and personalities. They all do. Every pet I have ever had had a distinct personality. Coco is one lovely affectionate dog. She is just not as demanding as her brother. I have fallen in love with Coco.
I love all my pets: all eight cats and four dogs. Yes, we have a menagerie. As time goes on, I will write about the other pets, too.
