Bodega was named after Bodega Bay. In California. Where "The Birds" was shot. Apparently, my boyfriend's parents went there on a vacation and loved it so much they named their dog after it. When they moved to Paris, right after buying the dog, my boyfriend had to keep the dog. So, after they moved back home, I refused to give the dog back. Hence, I now own Bodega. So, if my boyfriend and I seperate, I always say, "We will draw a contract for visitation rights for you." Many times I tell my therapist, I only stay with my old man for the dog. I keep trying to talk my boyfriend into getting a greyhound or a malamute. He refuses to get a malamute, as we recall all the problems we had with Bodega as a child. He even tore up our couch once..... He was feisty!!!!

Cool!
Yes - I think you should definitely make a point of keeping Bodega no matter what!
Yes, huskies can be quite feisty, even when grown. Greyhounds can be trouble as well - I have a friend who petsits for two greyhounds her former boss got from a rescue group for former racing dogs. They are so sweet - but the female has major separation anxiety. The man has had to have his back door (the one he uses more often) replaced more than once b/c she will chew at the frame and the door to try to get out when he's not home. She sleeps in a crate at night, but he doesn't want to keep her crated all day too, so he lets the dogs have the run of the house. He's thought about a doggy door - but it would have to be big enough for a person to fit through, so wouldn't be safe. He tries to not leave them alone for too long at a time, but doesn't always have a choice, and he lives alone.
Oh my...
And my lil' Penny was quite a troublemaker when I first got her too. She taught Puddin' to chew things up (had never had a problem before getting Pen) and she joined in, and for a while, until I started crating them when I wasn't at home, I was having a lot of trouble. But now that they're a little older, I don't have to crate them anymore and they're fine. Though I still don't leave plastic of any kind laying around where Pud can get ahold of it when I'm gone! She loves to eat plastic if she can.

Thank you, dahling.
All of the dogs we've had have been such good babies. I really miss my Jake, though. My parents decided for my 12th birthday that we could get a small dog to stay in the house (now the large dog is in the house too, but not back then). I wanted a puppy - but the shelter only had large breed pups, so I decided to get Jake. He was so quiet and in a pen with 2 yappy terriers and he looked petrified. My parents were like, "are you sure? he's not a puppy..." and I said, "Yes, I'm sure." So we took him home. He was such a good dog. My dad, who wasn't much of an animal person, was changed by Jake. Now their dalmatian, Lucy, is really more my dad's dog than my mom's! And Doogie is her little shadow.

That wasn't her actual name, but I was trying (unsuccesfully probably) to maintain some privacy.
That little dog was the love of my life. If there's an afterlife, I want to spend it with her at my side. She was my happiness.

Go back and look again. I threw caution to the wind and I included the photo of me from my time of troubles. It explains a lot! :P
But I'll probably chicken out and remove it, though I'm probably more recognizable to those who know me from my dog pictures. :)

your 'darlin', who I have declared the cutest dog.
And I loved Harry and the crown!!!
Awwwww....Dinah!!!!!! What wonderful dogs!!!!! And that little spaniel pup is such a doll.
And, might I add, that I find your childhood pics fantastic - those crystal blue eyes, and such a sincere, kind look - you look, Dinah, like the kind of person that I take you to be - a warm, sincere, caring individual.
Thanks for sharing.

Anyone who finds that little dog the cutest (which she was of course) is a forever friend of mine.
I loved her soooo much.
Very sincerely,
