Lil' Z
Zara was 1 of 8 in the litter. She was actually the runt. The day I took her home, she was 4.3lbs. (I sound like such a crazy dog mom remembering that). I remember holding her in my hands and she feel asleep in them. That's when she chose me. I didn't need to see any other dogs. I just knew she was the one that moment.
Favorite Toy: Tennis balls and ropes
She really likes to catch the ball and play keep away. She will keep the ball in her mouth and bring it to your hand, but as soon as you go for it, she'll jump back. As for ropes, she loves to play tug of war. The long the rope, the better. She shakes her head vigorously and lets the rope slap the sides of her face.
Favorite Treat: Jerky, of all types
Anytime I open her treat drawer, she'll rush right on over. She does at different kinds of treats, cookies, sticks, bones, etc. However, it'll get to a point where sometimes she just won't even look at those treats. Jerky is a completely different story. She will always go for jerky! It doesn't matter the time of day, if she's playing with her favorite toys, or if she's already eaten.
Favorite Spot in the House: Landing of the stairs
Usually, dogs like to have a corner in the house to feel safe. Zara, on the other hand, loves to hang out at the landing of the stairs in the house. She'll nap there, play with her toys up there, or even bring her treats up the stairs and munch away. Ever since I gave her more access to the house, that is a go to spot of hers. Maybe it's the carpet that super comfy and the bird's eye view she has of the house.
Favorite Trick: Hugs
Ever since I've taught Zara how to hug, that's a daily "trick" she will perform. Before I go to the gym or head to work, I usually sit at the bottom of the stairs to put to my shoes. Zara will walk up to me and prop her front legs on my knees and nudge her head on my chest Sometimes, she'll rest her head on my neck and will let me just hug her, kiss her, and tell her how much I love her. It's truly a great bonding experience!
