G is for GRRRRR

We have a new little bundle of joy...um, yeah...a puppy!  Her official name is "Rhossili Breeze" after the most gorgeous spot we've seen on the southwest coast of Wales (Rhossili) and the fact that it was quite breezy when we were there.  Her pet name is "Tegan" which is Welsh for beautiful, darling, pet.  Born on November 24, she is still in that gawky stage where her legs and feet get all tangled up when she plays.  It has been so long since I've had a puppy that I'd forgotten how grueling it is to have to be up at the crack of dawn and stay up to make sure she doesn't get into everything.  Oh okay, we do gush over her, giggle as she galivants around, and grin when she gyrates trying to catch her tail.  However, I admit that I gnash my teeth at her constant in-and-out, gasp at her gaseous poofs, and grumble that I'm not getting enough sleep.  But then I see her innate gentle yet gregarious nature, her giddy glee at being with us, and her golden glamour.  Overall, we are like gleaming new parents grooving with gratification that she has made "two" a family of "three."  I mean how could you resist this?
 Hopefully, this little dog won't grow to be a giant and will become a bit more genteel as she ages. And please forgive my gushing and gurgling over my gorgeous little goober.

    Oh, what a GORGEOUS little canine! I agree that they can be a handful but you are correct to GUSH over this cutie. Her GOLDEN coat will probably deepen in beauty and GLISTEN and GLOSS as she GROWS. Lucky you to have such a beauty. Happy ABC Wednesday to you!
