He's name is Merlyn, and he doesn't like the rain

This Spring started with a storm and it's still going, but I must admit I am loving it!

However, there is a little someone in my life who is not loving this weather as much as I am .

This furry, little 8lb Chihuahua mix is the king of the house (seriously, would you be able to resist these eyes). His name is Merlyn and he is 9 years old. He came to my life when he was only 3 months old and he has been the center of this household ever since. This handsome fella enjoys long leashless walks in the parks, 2-3 naps a day, 3 grilled steak meals a day, and he LOVES tortillas. But I must tell you, this is one high-maintenance canine: he dislikes big chunks of food, will not lay down on the floor, and if he is to lay down in the couch he needs his special blanket. He sleeps in the bed - inside the covers!. His favorite cologne is Carolina Herrera for Men and he has over 30 different outfits, including a boomer, fur jacket.

Many people think that we go over board with pampering our pet, but for my family and I Merlyn is not a pet, he is a family member. When Merlyn wakes up, the first thing he does is come and see you waving his tail. When you come into the house the house, he is the first one at the door greeting you with happiness - barking, jumping, and crying because your are finally back. When you are sick he comes by your side and lays next to you. When you are sad, he comes tries to heal you with his love. And on days when I am up working late he will not go to bed, instead he will sit in the couch next to me until I am done. 

It's amazing how this little guy can bring so much happiness. I love you Merlyn, this one is for you.

Xoxo,
