Elvis Valentino is his name. We named him that because he was a Valentine's Day present from my husband and soulmate, Carroll. One day I saw Carroll looking at the classifieds and I asked him what he was doing. He said he was looking for a little male poodle to give me for Valentine's day and also to use as a sire for breeding to our Cocker Spaniels to get Cockapoos. We adopted Elvis first, a black tuxedo type, but he had a little sister that I could not quit thinking about. She was a light cream color and just adorable. We ended up going back a couple of days later to get Tiffany. We brought Elvis with us to pick her up. It was just soo cute the way he was so glad to see his sister. He couldn't wait to get to her. Elvis was a kinda shy little puppy.. Elvis said. "Mommie I yam so gwad you adowpt ma sista, I NEED ma sista to twake cawre uf me. I yam jis a wittle bit fwad of da "bigdogs', but ma sista isn't fwad a NUTTEN en she twakes care uf me. I yam jes sooo gwad en happy yall didn't sep rate me fwom ma sista"
Elvis is a grown dog now, still a little shy, but he is now a proud PAPA, because he, along with Gracie, a Cocker, have given us his first litter of Cockapoos..... and they are all sooo precious. One little girl looks just like him. His sista still takes care of him. Once in a while she has to "put him in his place" as most sistas do, but he knows she still loves him, because afterwards she always lets him know she is sorry and kisses him. Elvis has become a real Momma's boy. Momma takes care of and loves him. too. He is always nearby...... |
