Beyonce

It was six years ago this October that I purchased Beyonce. I went to the pet store at the college station mall. I had no intentions of purchasing a pup, especially a chihuahua. I have never found them to be cute dogs, and had no desire for one. BUT, when I walked into the pet store and asked to play with her, she stole my heart. She walked up to me and kissed me on the nose. I handed over my dad's credit card right then. (I did have to pay him back later) I took her home. I thought my roommates would be delighted, but they were basically jerks about it. One roommate had recently purchased a Collie without asking us so I figured a chihuahua would be no big deal. Not so much. They weren't happy and without the moral support, my desire to own this dog died down a bit. That night at about 3 am I was awoken to a horrible cry. It was Beyonce. She had had diarrhea all over her cage and had rolled around in it. So, at three am, I was up with my dog in the shower cleaning her up.

Well, like any normal person would do the next morning, I returned her. The man at the pet store did not appear to be thrilled with the idea, but he kindly said that he would rip my check up. I went back to Dallas that weekend to hang out with John and see my family. All I could think about during that time was Beyonce. I had abandoned this child:) because she had pooped on herself and because I didn't like waking up early in the morning.


So, once again, like any normal person would do, I went back to the pet shop that Sunday and kindly asked the man (who rolled his eyes when I walked in) if the black chihuahua was still available. He said yes with a sigh and went and got her for me. John was with me and when I handed Beyonce to him he looked at me like "you have got to be kidding me" and kind of held her with one hand.

Life since then has been bliss. Beyonce is the best dog anyone could ever ask for. She lives up to her name, but is super sweet and cuddly most of the time. I love her and she will always be my favorite dog in the entire world.

I know that this was a random post but someone mentioned that I needed a new one, so this is what I decided to post on:)

I remember that following Christmas when you picked me up from the airport and John had B poking out the top his sweatshirt :-)
