Want your life to be whole, and a house full of joy? Have a dog!
OUR PRECIOUS
Regardless of what breed the dog is, its love for humans is pure and genuine.
People with diamond hearts can love dogs as their own. Hello Hivers! This is our Bebe, the love of our lives. A half Shih Tzu and a half Chihuahua dog. I just want to share with the whole world how lucky we are to have Bebe in our lives. She was given to us as a Christmas present to our daughters, the three musketeers last January 17, 2021. She was 9 months old at that time. Now, she is 2 years old already. Isn’t she pretty? She’s so adorable. Owning her brings endless happiness to us. And this story is all about BEBE the AWESOME DOG.
STRESS RELIEVER and COMFORTER
She is not just a pet but a four-legged family member, one of my stress relievers. We love walking with her in our province.
Being a mother of three and a teacher is pretty tough. I need to wake up early in the morning so I can do all the necessary things that we need like, cooking, cleaning the entire house while cooking the food, and afterward setting up the table for the children. These are my daily routines. Due to the hectic schedule that I had, it is undeniable that I am vulnerable. Sometimes I lacked enough rest due to the reports which were bombarded to us at school and brought home those unfinished works thus, I was tiresome struck, depressed and anxiety attacked. My body was knocked down. These are some of the emotional and physical effects that I have been suffering.
But these stressors are instantly gone with the genuine smiles that my Bebe had shown. The unexplained gladness can be seen in her actions like wagging her tail, circling my legs, and asking me to carry her. These are her ways of expressing how happy she was when I am home. One hug from her removes all my worries and tiredness. Our charming dog has bottomless intelligence that can notice automatically how’s my day. If everything was not okay and I’m so worn out and liked to take a rest, she loved to sleep by my side.
Dogs can help take away our wearies. There was one time that I was ill for 2 weeks. She never left me. She watched me the entire day and slept behind me. How supportive this beautiful creature is. If only she can talk, probably she will say “I am here for you”. She’s expressing her emotional support by licking my face and always taking a look at me.
Being blessed is God’s gift to us. Having this baby is more than a blessing. The emotional support she had shown to me was incredible. What I appreciated most about her is the soothing effect especially when I am sad. She cuddled me by tilting on my lap and doing the usual thing of licking my face. These are unforgettable for her. What a feeling!
I am flattered by the love she gives me all the time. She is very sweet.
A FRIEND
Friends can be gained if you have a beautiful heart. She possesses this positive character. At home, and at school, she is a friend to anyone. One time I rescued 3 kittens that were thrown and abandoned at school. Of these kittens, one was close and needy to her. They were still nursed by their mother. Since they have been brought home without their mother, Bebe answered the need for one kitten, acting as his mother by nursing him. Such a heartbreaking scene (It's so cool to be kind). A dog nurtured the helpless kitten. They have grown up now, sometimes they have the same likes like watching tv and sleeping together.
In school, her tempting charm captivates the hearts of the people there to appreciate and love her for being so friendly.
OUR GREAT COMPANION'S UNANTICIPATED HAPPENINGS
Dogs are known to be the most loyal of all God’s perfect creation. And they are the best companion too. I used to bring this lovely creature to school every day. She loves dogging me all the time. She loves schooling. Until one day, an unexpected happened.
She was strolling on the second floor of our 2-story building without my knowledge. I was watering the plants in our garden thus she went there alone. She met one of my co-teachers together with his dog and a stray dog. It was on her mind that they will give her trouble. She was trapped in the corner of the lobby, and to stay away from them, she jumped off from the second floor of the building.
She landed with her four legs. Praised God she was alive. I rushed her to the clinic because she was traumatized, cannot stand and walk, and was pale. She has been admitted for 2 nights and 3 days. Different lab tests were given to her. The x-ray result had shown the fractures he had committed. She was advised for an operation that cost from 40,000 pesos – 50,000 pesos. I don’t have enough budget for it. Prayer is the best weapon that I had, luckily, with the fierce character she had, and with the love and tender care from us, she defeated Mr. Death😁 and was able to recover.
She was placed in the dog cage for 2 weeks to have a total rest of her two broken hind legs. She was doing great and was able to recover easily.
TRIP TO MOTHERHOOD
Time flies quickly. Bebe had recovered fully after 6 months. Until it’s "heating" time! We were all excited for another chapter of her life and that is being a mother. She had mated with a dachshund. It was a success! She got pregnant. She used to sleep all day good thing, we were on summer vacation. Everything was pampered by myself. After 2 months, she gave birth.
Welcome to the world cuties! I assisted her during the delivery. Congratulations to us! All of them are healthy. We named them Blossom Bebe– the pure white Buster Bebe- the black-white; and Bailey Bebe – the white and brown one.
Look at them! They are all fluffy and pretty! Who would have thought that God will give us these lovely babies after Bebe's trials?

Some of the true essences of joy cannot be brought by money, others can be given by the tender, unconditional love of the dogs. Our love for her never fades. Every day with her is very special. Everywhere we go, she’s with us. We never leave her at home. Although she’s nursing her puppies, we still brought them with us. I know nothing will last forever in this world and I know that their lives are too short thus, we cherish every moment that she's still with us together with her babies. Our love for them is priceless and nothing can equal it. Happy and contented.
My heartfelt gratitude to all who have exerted their time reading my write-ups about my awesome dog’s life. Take care and God bless everyone, from our Bebe Love!
