MoMo Ries Cruz

 I decided i need to tell the world. I have 3 pets. A cat,dog and bird. All names where from previous owners.
     Anyways don't tell my boyfriend but my dogs the best man i have in my life. He is 5yrs old and this coming up January he will be 6, time flies so fast!He is a miniature chihuahua,dark brown with a litter brown belly and eyebrows. He is a lazy, overly attached baby :] and i wouldn't change a thing...but the fact he doesn't play with toys, he plays like a cat. He loves playing tag tho which has to be one of the cutest things he does. 
      The background story about Momo is that i was never apposed to have any animals after my brother left and too all his lizards and un-furry animals out of the house i decided i wanted a dog instead of a car when i was 16, my parents did not like that idea but my mom caved. We went to my brothers cuz his dog had puppies thinking i would be able to pick one out most of them where sold but this skinny lil thing that didn't want to get away from under the table... so i chased him down, he didn't wanna be near me but after a good long trip back home from NYC to PA he loved me! and i loved him!
     When he was 2yr old he got lost in Codorus State Park for two weeks straight. I was so scared he was eaten by foxes or picked up by a bird that's how small he is. After the first couple of days we found a camp site and a nice camper man that just got there and was staying for a week. We asked him if we could put a no kill trap out for my dog in hopes we can catch him that way. He said sure and we set it putting one of my shirts inside with some food.Since we already notified all of the rangers we could we decided to tell everyone on the camp sites as well,after about five more days the man told us that something was trying to pull the shirt out and that the trap never went off but the camper mans wife shooed it away thinking it was a cat, they where an old couple so a lot of things probably look like cats. After thinking this is the end of ever seeing my dog and being annoyed at the fact my moms yelling Momo over and over again and shes doing it again i turn around to see this skeleton like little puppy running towards me! The worst he had was that he lost a pound and had a tick on him. What he got at the vet was kennel cough,should have just taken him home.
     About a week after we finally had him on a schedule to help him gain weight. I'm watching and he cant move his neck or go down the stairs. I cried every time he would yelp in pain so back to the hospital we went finding out he has a slipped disc in the back of his neck so he put him on pain killers which he didn't cry out as much be he still couldn't sleep or eat right, so depressing but i never left his side as i carried him up the stairs onto my bed and around the house. He fine now but he wont go down the stair without the lights on, which i find out but he wakes me up to turn on the light and i know I'm saposed to run this house but really he does.

  1. AWWWWWWW!!!! I'm so happy you found him--that is so lucky. Poor little guy...I also laughed at "They're old so a lot of things probably look like cats."
