4 years ago today Sumo came over for a play date with Isabella for the very first time. One week later he was handed over to me with "you can have him." My neighbor was tired of chasing after this escape artist who got bored alone in the yard with the company of an old dog and cat only. For Isabella it was love at first sight, she was overjoyed, would not leave his side, never fought about food, toys or bones and eventually would squeeze herself into a corner of her bed to make space for him. But our Pretty Kitty insists too on getting close to this Pretty Boy, wanting to snuggle, to this dog's horror.
Here I had stuck him into my favorite funky carpet shoulder bag in preparation for taking him along on my scooter. He never minded hanging out inside the bag and loved sitting on my lap riding along, snapping at the air and never making a fuss, never even calling out to other doggies or endangering us in any way. He is such a good boy and we are so glad to have him.
Two weeks after his first visit, Sumo is a very happy boy waiting out a storm inside with good company and a rawhide to chew on.
