I KNOW YOU REMEMBER THAT DAY LIKE IT WAS YESTURDAY. I REMEMBER GOING FROM PET STORE TO PET STORE SEARCHING FOR OUR LIL BOY CHINO. WE WERE ABOUT TO GIVE UP WHEN WE SAW THIS AND FIGURED WHAT THE HELL IT WAS OUR LAST CHANCE. WE WALKED IN AND WERE LOOKING AROUND WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE SAW THIS LITTLE FLUFF OF WHITE IN THIS DOLL HOUSE. I THOUGHT TO MYSELF WHAT A HORRIBLE WAY TO KEEP ANIMALS. WE ASKED THE SALES PERSON IF WE COULD TAKE A LOOK AT HIM. THE GUY SAID YEAH I PUT YOU IN A ROOM WITH HIM. WE WERE EAGERLY WAITING FOR HIM IN THE ROOM WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ANOTHER COUPLE CAME TO ASK ABOUT HIM ALSO. THE YOUNGER GUY WAS GIVING THEM INFORMATION ABOUT HIM WHEN THE OLDER MAN TOLD HIM NO, THAT WE WERE LOOKING AT HIM FIRST. THE OLDER MAN BROUGHT HIM INTO THE ROOM AND WE FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM AT FIRST SIGHT. WE WERENT READY FOR A DOG BUT WE TOOK HIM HOME ANYWAYS. HOW COULD YOU NOT FALL IN LOVE WITH A FACE LIKE HIS? WE HAD TO CARRY HIM OUT OF THE PET SHOP. WE STOPPED TO LET HIM GO TO THE BATHROOM AND HAD TO MAKE SURE HE DIDNT RUN AWAY CAUSE WE DIDNT HAVE A LEASH FOR HIM. WE FINALLY GOT HIM INTO THE CAR AND HEADED HOME. ONCE WE GOT HIM HOME MY BROTHER WATCHED HIM AS WE WENT TO THE STORE TO BUY HIM ALL HIS BEDDING, FOOD, TREATS ETC. WELL, HE DIDNT WANT TO STAY IN HIS BED THAT NIGHT SO WE LET HIM SLEEP WITH US. WELL, NEEDLESS TO SAY, WHEN WE WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING WE COULDNT FIND HIM. WE LOOKED EVERYWHERE. THEN FINALLY WE LOOKED UNDER THE BED AND TO OUR AMAZEMENT ALL WE SAW WAS TAIL HANGING FROM THE END OF THE BED. HE WAS WRAPPED UP IN THE BLANKET AND SOMEHOW MANAGED TO END UP BETWEEN THE MATTRESS AND THE FOOT BOARD. WE PULLED HIM OUT VERY EASILY AS TO NOT SCARE HIM AND WE LAUGHED ABOUT IT AFTERWARDS. CHINO IS AN AMAZING LIL BOY. HE HAS THE BEST MANNERS WHEN HE WANTS TO. WE TOOK HIM TO OBEDIENCE SCHOOL AND HE WON HANDS DOWN. HE WON FIRST PLACE AT PETSMART COSTUME CONTEST AND GOT TO GO TO A DOGGIE DAYCARE FOR THREE FUN FILLLED DAYS. WHEN WE FIRST GOT CHINO HE WAS SIX MONTHS OLD AND NOW HE IS 4 YRS. OLD. OUR LIL BOY IS GETTING OLD. WE LOVE CHINO SO MUCH THAT WE THINK OF HIM AS OUR SON. WHEN EVERYONE ASKS IF WE HAVE KIDS AND WE SAY YES THE FOUR LEGGED KIND. WE ALWAYS PULL OUT THE PHOTOS AND SHOW EVERYONE OUR LIL BOY CHINO. WE MISS HIM EVERYDAY WHILE WE ARE AT WORK. WELL, WE JUST HAD A SCARE WITH HIM WHILE I WAS WRITING THIS DEVOTION LETTER. I GAVE HIM A TREAT AND HE MUST HAVE SWOLLOWED WRONG AND IT GOT LODGED IN HIS THROAT, SO I GAVE HIM THE HEIMLECH SO HE WOULDNT CHOKE AND FINALLY HE WAS FINE. I DONT KNOW WHAT WE WOULD DO WITHOUT OUR BABY. HE TRULY IS AN AMAZING LIL BOY. WE LOVE YOU MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF!!
