Last Day

Hi - Mia here. Uben has been hogging up the blogging so far but he agreed to give me the last post of our visit together. Of course I'm going to write about him because he's taking a little piece of my heart with him when he goes home. I won't tell him that now as he's prone to flaunt my weakness and shake me down for treats.

No matter what people say, every dog has his own personality, just like you and me. Uben's personality is all about being a little wiggly butt, an "i'm just sooo happy you're sitting here" guy. His eyes are deep and sensitive; his fur is just as soft as he is gentle in spirit. His greatest day is a wide open field, the expectation of treats in your pocket, and to run run run. If he could get a tattoo, he'd have one that says "I love H20".

The following is the littany of nicknames lavished on Mr. Uben during his stay: Ubie, Mr. Snorty, Snorty Pants, Schnuggly, Sweetie Face, Du Baby Du, Little Guy, and Big Guy (depending upon Benny's proximity).

One of my favorite things about Uben is how excited he is when you get out of bed in the morning. No one has ever been that thrilled to experience my matted bedhead and morning breath. And, when he's tired, he'll tolerate just about anything. Here he is, dressed up like a babushka lady.



Well, my job here is done. I hope everyone has enjoyed hearing from Uben as much as we've enjoyed having him here!

Ubie, we will miss you.
