Gibbs fka CP Citron Celebrate his 1st Year Gotcha Day! |
Good
Morning! Gibbs here! A year ago I was pulled from a life of
fighting Naval crime and… Oh… wait… That’s
the real Gibbs. Ok: A year ago I was
adopted by two really nice people. Initially, I
have to admit, I was a bit frightened, but once they got me to my new Forever Home,
I found Lots of new toys, treats, and all the loving and belly rubs I could
handle!
I
quickly learned I could trust my new Mom and Dad as I settled in. Dad then took me exploring my new
neighborhood. It was pretty interesting,
and I even found a girlfriend on the corner, though I do still like to play
hard to get. After I earned their trust,
Mom and Dad allowed me to sleep at the foot of their bed. I like that - a lot!
Guess
what? My new home also came with a
brother, Alex, a funny kind of dog – I think Dad called him a “cat”? My brother Alex and I are constantly chasing
each other and playing. He doesn’t play
fair, but I usually win.
It
isn’t all fun and games, though. Dad
took me to this thing called “Obedience
School”. At first I wasn’t too sure about all these
strange dogs - most of which were larger than me – but, after a few classes, I
started socializing with them more and more. I received lots of praises from the instructor,
but what I really liked most was the treats!
In the end, I got the diploma, but I think, truth be told, that Dad got
trained pretty well too.
The
other thing I like to do is watch TV, especially when dog shows are on. I’ll watch from Mom or Dad’s lap, next to them
on the sofa, or up close, so I can see all the action.
All
in all, it has been a fun year! I got to
meet lots of new people, too. I got to
go on a long car ride to a place called “Tampa”
to meet my cousin, Carrie. I like going
for rides, and get excited when I see my crate being loaded in the car! I just celebrated my 2nd birthday
last month and I got Lots more toys, biscuits, and treats! BTW, have I mentioned I like squeaky toys??!!!
Thank You,
Col. Potter and my Foster Mom & Dad, for rescuing me and preparing me for my
Forever Home! Mom & Dad say they
couldn’t be happier!
Gotta
go! Till next time then… Alex and I will watch for what comes next and
I’ll bring you the full report next year!
