Molly Has A Boyfriend

There is that time in every Daddy's life when he knows his girls will meet someone. Well, this is true of our Dog-ter as well.

Enter Poncho; a mix breed of Dachshund and Jack Russell Terrier. He is OK, I guess. He seems nice, very interested in Molly. Problem is he has no job and no hopes and dreams. All he does is run around and stare at the sky and my Molly. I mean seriously, dude...get a job or something.

Now, Molly is very smitten over Poncho. Every time Poncho is outside with his parents, the two must get together and play. It is to the point now that if we walk by their house and Poncho is not outside, Molly whimpers and cries the whole way passing the yard. That is one thing about Molly, smart as a whip, never forgets anything.

One of the benefits that Poncho has over her is that he is hardly ever on a leash. Crazy as this sounds, he must smell her coming because if he is not leashed he comes running down the street to meet her. Then they go at it having a blast. It's funny because you know how dogs have to smell each other, right? Well, Molly has to constantly check out Poncho but so help her god if Poncho tries to check her out. Molly is not too much into the checking me out thing. The good news, when we get to have a play date with Poncho, Molly is definitely tired out and therefore we always hope for an evening play date on her last walk of the night and that usually puts her out.

So, I suppose as long as he does not hurt her, I will be OK with Poncho. Basically the same rules apply that apply to my daughters...treat them right or bleed...badly.... This must be what they call...Puppy Love!
