im-a-big-boytext1
bigboyreggie-frame-200x200

There comes a time in a puppy’s life where his mind and body grows and matures and Mother Nature gently caresses his face – bidding a fond farewell to his puppyhood and lovingly welcomes his new place in this world – a place where he has more responsibilities – to himself, to the earth and to mankind – where he leaves innocence behind as he moves out of his house, starts a family of his own and looks in the mirror to find…… an adult dog.

What?! Ummm…well thank goodness for me that hasn’t happened yet! Whew! I mean…that sounds stressful. Just thinking about it made me bury my face in Nibble and take a lil’ bite – hee hee. Then I rolled onto my back with Nibble still dangling from my mouth and started wiggling on the floor! Ahhh, that’s better.

But really, I am seeing changes in myself. I’m bigger than I used to be – my ears are bigger, my body is longer and I get to do more neat stuff. For example, I get to go outside now. I have all my shots and can go outdoors on the ground and feel the delicious squish of the grass on my paw pads. There are so many amazing sights and smells out there; it makes me want to run!

Speaking of wanting to run, my legs have been getting less wobbly. I can walk some without falling over every time now…but I need to take breaks often. So I walk a few feet and then I sit down…walk a few more feet…sit down. My human momma laughs and says I look really cute.

I’m getting older now and have been having some big boy thoughts. It’s time for me to move into a bigger place. Momma and the Chihuahuas are great, but Momma needs a break and she has a friend who wants to take me into her home where I would have my own bedroom as well as the entire house! I’m considering making the move. Nibble and I need more space and it’s the right, big boy thing to do. I’m a big boy now and it’s time to start acting like one…now where’s my wee wee pad? I have to tinkle.

I have to go now (if you know what I mean) but I’ll be back soon – and maybe even from my new home.

See ya guys!

    I so love little Reggie and I wish I could afford to contribute to his surgery. Our dollar difference doesn’t help either. But I know he’ll get the best of care and come this summer it’ll be time for him to have his surgery and become the tail chasing little guy he was meant to be. But for now all he has to do is lie there and be cute!

    Hi Reggie, my name is Toni Daniels

    I have been reading your stories and I see that you are getting bigger everyday. I am also praying for you to get big and strong so you can walk and run! :-)

    Where can I help to donate? on the site or can I mail the donation in? if I don’t hear from you I will research myself. I wish I can take you home with me.

    Love You ~ Toni

    Reggie,

    I just read your latest blog; outside doing grass wiggles. You and nibble are a pair. You look marvelous. You’ve come a long way baby. Isn’t amazing what miracles love can bring?

    Stay strong, and cute…..and have the wonderful, funfilled, love filled life you deserve.
