This dog. I love her. She has adjusted ridiculously well to
mister J. I was worried- and if you know Kahla, you know why. She barks - a
lot, she is needy, she is easily excited, she has tons of energy, and, did I mention, she
barks. A LOT.
We have made it a point to give her plenty of attention. And
by that, I mean Tyler has made it his personal conviction that she will not go
unnoticed in our home – and I fully agree. Too many dogs get the cold shoulder
once baby arrives, and we don’t want that to happen to Miss K. Tyler takes her
for an hour long walk every single day, rain, snow, or shine. They have both
come home soaking wet on more than one occasion (thanks Ohio). Beyond that, our
spoiled animal gets treats and tons of loving attention. She even gets the
(very) occasional spot on our bed. She has a special blanket that protects our
comforter, and boy, when that thing comes out, you’d think it was Christmas!
You can imagine then why I was concerned to how she might
react to a little, screaming, vomiting, smelly creature that takes our
attention away from her. She’s been nothing short of amazing. At first she was
very curious, and I was very nervous. It wasn’t long before I could see that A)
the smelly tiny human doesn’t upset her and B) she might even like him.
This animal known to have no boundaries or manners, is
surprisingly gentle with Jackson. She sneaks kisses whenever she can- and knows
that feet and hands are fair game, however face kisses are OFF limits. She
knows this, and yet she goes for it every time we turn away.
Recently, Jackson has become very aware of Kahla's presence. He is so intrigued by her, and her obnoxious wet kisses make him grin.
Oh Miss Kahla Just wait- it won’t be long before Jackson is
chasing you around, you poor thing. Someday though, you’ll be best friends, I
just know it. In the mean time, thanks for being a trooper.
