What Its Like To Own a Pug
Kaylee Teets

I learned a lot while being in a relationship with Dom. As you read in my previous article, we are living life in Hawaii and the happiest ever, but I don’t think we’d be the happy people we are if it weren’t for our pug, Gerald.

You’d be surprised, having a dog in your life and being a pug mom and dad is so fun and exciting. Obviously at first, having a brand new puppy wasn’t the easiest thing, but it still was so fun. Ask any of my friends or Dom’s friends, I think the constant snapchat’s of Gerald got to be a little much, but that didn’t bother me. I mean, how could you not love him and want to post pictures of him constantly? He’s the cutest pug I’ve ever seen!

Being a dog owner at this age is like having your own child, honestly I think with everything that is going on, a dog is more than enough to have around. That being said, being able to come home to his smiling face right at the door each day is so great.

I think the funniest thing about Gerald is the fact that he has his own personality, I know that is the case for any other dog, but his pug personality is even better than any other dog I’ve had or met. He can definitely be a you-know-what sometimes, but that’s what makes him who he is. For example, when I came home not too long ago, someone had left the bathroom door open and all I could see was the look of pure shame on his face when we caught him in the act of his mischievousness.

All in all, I couldn’t thank Dom enough for pushing to get Gerald when we did. He fills our life with happiness and joy each day, and I can’t wait to continue going on adventures as a whole fam! Thanks for making us so happy, Gerald.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
