A Dog's Nickname

August 2002

Six months is long time for a dog (it's like 3 1/2 human years). In no time I grew from a cute puppy full of wonder into a stunning dog with all new tricks.


Along the way I met my cousin Sunshine for the first time. Let me tell you she is a SMART one (something I've never been accused of)! Regardless of her brain power, we hit it off great. She chased me from the word go, and I quickly introduced her to my favorite mud hole hide away.

Also over this period of time I grew to really like my nickname. Being that I was the baby in the family and the only puppy, my parents simply starting calling me "Bubby." See when you add baby + puppy it equals bubby. No not buppy or paby, but bubby, which makes perfect since if you think like a pomeranian. I especially liked it because now I had a cool nickname like Little Peeps did (her real name is Sissy Peeps, but was called "Little Peeps" because when she was little her eyes made her look like one of those peeps candies that you can only get during Easter) and I liked my nickname because it made Shaka Boo's lip snarl just a tad every time she heard it.

But in reality it was just one more stir of the pot for Shaka Boo's grand plan she brewed against my best friend...
