Dog Hair
Even though dog hair can be a pain in the butt to try and avoid getting all over your clothes, to some people it can be their security blanket. If you have had a dog all your life, even before you were born, there is a good chance that you might feel this way. Most of the time, as in my case, you would never think that you could ever miss something so annoying so much until after you lose the source of all this hair, your beloved canine. I learned this the hard way. Before I was born, my parents decided to get a dog to see if they could handle the challenge of raising a puppy before they raised a kid. If they could do that then they were going to have kids. On Valentine's Day '85, Dad handed his Valentine's Day present to my mother, a 40 pound bag of puppy chow. "What is this for Michael?", she asked him with an extremely confused look on her face. "Well, we're gonna go for a ride Rose. What do you say about that?", he replied mischievously.

Then, he started to help the dogs into the truck. She could never lay close enough to you. We say that Tia picked my mom out long before my parents decided to get her. The Colorado State Veterinarians said that she was never going to make it to four, but they were wrong. Nick and I both knew that out of all the people in the neighborhood that Raydar knew, other than the mailman, Derrick was the only one that he didn't like. Raydar was accused of biting a neighbor kid that had come over to sell magazines for a fundraiser. Other vets said that she would never live to be six, then it was ten, then twelve, then finally not through the summer. You never ever got cold when Tia was around. They are very high strung dogs and they burn themselves out very fast. Everyone had seen him kick his little poof-ball dogs all over his own yard, and secretly wished that he would move away or something. When we told the other kids in the neighborhood what had happened, they said things like, "Oh, i'm sorry to hear that. He then, went to the vet to get Ray's chest stitched up.
