Sitting on the couch with my boy. Still utterly amazed by him. This canine by my side. Even after five months of being here, Chevy still surprises me every day by how much love he has in him.
When I lost the 24 Paws, I could not fathom a dog that could match them. Yet, here we are with Chevy doing just that. The 24 Paws are physically gone, but they are still here in spirit. And they are in Chevy, but he is his own dog. It is weird. I'm constantly doing a mental double take. Chevy has smoothed all the rough edges of that loss and made me fall in love with dogs again.
This boy is the most loveable dog we have ever had and that I have ever met. Chevy loves to snuggle and is always open to attention and affection. He loves everyone he meets and everyone he meets loves him, including his four doggie girlfriends. He wants to do a meet-and-greet with all people and dogs he comes across. Which is one of our challenges when out and about with him, not being pulled towards potential "new friends." lol He has such a hard time controlling himself, but we are working on it.
His training is coming along great! We are working on a solid "stay" and "come." 10 to 15 minutes is all he needs for training until he's rolling on the grass or grabbing a stick to let me know he's done. lol
Chevy is just such a good dog overall. I still find myself in disbelief at just how good of a dog he is. We have been more than blessed with him. ♥
