~E's Best Friend



So this is Oscar. He is our 4th dog. His birthday is sometime this month so I thought I would share a little about my furry "little heaven" (when he is bad he is "little he!!"). First I have to preface by listing the other dogs from our past. Billie was a lab, not the smartest dog but she was a baby with gracie and they used to snuggle together. She is now with Aguado's sis. Bobbie was our next dog. She was a boxer. We LOVED her. She was a huge part of the family. When Aguado was put over the state of Nevada he was gone a lot. She was my companion. Always slept with me and kept us safe. One morning she bit this guy that was looking in our front door, so sadly we had to put her down, it devastated all of us. Our next dog was St. Pepper Jack. He was a black mini schnauzer, sadly he fell through the ice in an Iowa river and drowned this past January. I don't think I have ever or will ever cry so hard, it was harder than the tornado. I watched him drown, and I couldn't do anything. I would have jumped in, but I was pregnant so I couldn't.


Now Oscar, he was peppers best friend. He had been through 2 other families when we got him. When pepper dies he was so sad. He became glued to me. As you all know I got really lonely sometimes in Iowa he took care of me! When my sugars would go low, he'd lick my face. So in Oscar's short 2 yrs he has been through 3 families, moved to Iowa, Lost his best friend, survived a tornado, moved back to Utah then welcomed a new baby in to the house. He likes Lollie, but, he doesn't like competing for my attention! He feels a little neglected.LOL, I am posting a pic of him in Lollies chair, and Lollie is on the floor! He thinks he owns it all. Happy b-day oosk!
