One of the biggest fear about liking or getting used to someone or something is that it would no longer be there one day and you would have to go from been used to having it to not having it around, I think that's my state right now I once had my baby around but now it's been sold out, well that's a background story for another day but today I would be sharing with you all one experience I had with Rio which I can never forget up till today, yeah his name is Rio but I usually call it my baby atimes, so why not scroll with me as I gist you about this pretty doll right here.
Taking care of Rio was like taking care of a small baby, it was some month old so no doubt it's still a baby, one experience I can remember was when I had to bath him with cold water because I was too busy to put water on fire for him so I just wanted bathing him and move onto the next chore, immediately I finished bathing him he started shivering like someone that's catching cold, the shivering became worse that I had to wrap a wrapper around him which did solve anything so I had to take him near the fire for him to get warm, after some minutes he was back to normal and was now playing around,on a norms we don't bath him with normal water we have to mix it up to get alittle bit hot so if not for anything I learnt something that day.
Another experience that made us all scared was when we tried chaining him but he always didn't like it so he would keep barking and shouting at us until we release him, one day he got what he always wanted we didn't put him on chains as usual so he had the opportunity to go out of the house without anybody noticing, but he hadn't gone far when another local dog attacked him and dragged him with it's mouth, all we could hear was Rio's cry from a distance and we ran to save it from the mouth of its Lion, immediately it was set free we all saws Rio ran back home with speed and went under a chair, he didn't come out for the rest of that day just hiding under that chair as if it was hiding from someone or something, I felt that was the best experience he needs to know that we wants the best for him when ever I choose to chain it at home instead of releasing it out like other dogs.
My take on pets having dreams is that why not, I mean if they practically behaves like us they definitely have dreams too, I can remember Rio doing something movement even while asleep where he would be moving some part of his body and it would just be fun to sit and watch him, I never thought those where him dreaming at first but thinking about it now I know those where his dreams and his way of responding to whatever were happening in them, whether they were having sweet dreams or night mare I wouldn't say but by the smiles I can say for sure that they were good sleeps but with the karat and all I know they aren't good ones, atimes when I notice his discomfort while sleeping I will try to change it position of sleeping or even wake him up, my feelings sometimes is that am scared or am just smiling looking at it doing his thing.
I love that we had a connection and that he always recognizes me even in public and that he was attached to my scent and me, I miss my baby and I hope to get one like him in the future when am ready to get one. Thank you all for reading through with me 😘.
