One of the guys I work with is an older Italian man.He has a miniature-sized dog of thirteen years old who he calls his “baby”.I told him that I could relate since one of my dogs that I had for seventeen years I considered my bambino.What both of us additionally have in common is that we are fond of, and preferred big dogs all of our lives, but that this was the first small dog that he ever owned.
This man absolutely loves his dog and considers himself a father to the canine.
His eyes literally light up, displaying a smile on his face whenever he looks at his dog, and speaks about his Terrier breed.I know and understand his sentiment. I spent a long part of my life being a pet mommy.
