MY FIWST DAY

My Sweetie Kousin Koobuss tagged me to tell evewyone about my fiwst day with my pawents, so hewe goes!


This is whewe I was bowned..a place called Birchhuwst Kennels in Nowth Cawolina..(funny I don't have a southewn dwall)..anyway..I lived hewe with my doggiemom and doggiedad and two sissies and thwee bwudders until I was eight weeks old...about a week befowe all my bwuddews and sissies left one by one..i was the only baby left..i thought maybe no one wanted me...they called me giwl,one spot..not a vewy intewesting name,but whatevew! maybe no one wanted me cause i didn't have mowe spots??

Then one day in Novembew, awound something called Thanksgiving(was it thanks fow me?) I was given a bath and told to behave nicely when some hoomans came to the doow.

I came into the woom with my doggie pawents and we chased awound till I saw this giant! I went to investigate his shoes, they had yummy laces..then I was told this was my Daddi!!!He smelled good and was vewy sweet,but dogness, he was ginouwmous..do you think I'll gwow up to be as big as him?

I was told to get my things, I would be leaving with this new Mommi and Daddi!

My new pawents said thank you and put something awound my neck and then stawted walking..I just went with them without a backwawd glance...thewe is a whole big wowld out thewe and I was detewmined to explowe it!...no pwoblem I was off!

My new Mommi held me in hew awms all the way back to a place called NewYowk City..it was ten jillion houws away by caw..but i didn't thwow up ow anything..I just sat and mostly snoozed..it felt safe
We got to this ginowmous city..(maybe that's why Daddi was so big? but then how to explain Mommi??) it was all dawk ,but with a kagillion lights on....we went into a big building and into a woom that moved,then it stopped and we went thwough anothew doow and new Mommi and Daddi said we'we home Asta! Asta! who's Asta?

Ooh this place looks awful tall...I'm not suwe about this...maybe I'll just stay hewe and watch fwom the safety of the tiny kitchen

Hey what's this puple thingy on my body..am I changing colows??what's going on.(it was cold in New York and I had knitted her a sweater)
Hey thewe's aweady a puppy hewe..no one told me that! come out and play with me! well come on!..what a twewp..she wouldn't come play!
My Fiwstest cookie...yummmm!!! I cleaned all the cwumbs
Happiness is "roaching" I didn't know this wowd yet..but i suwe knew the method
I'm pwactising fow my footuw as a bitey face champion
So many new things to munch on..I wondew what this is??
It was hawd to focus the camewa cause I wiggled so much while I chewed
Thewe wewe lots of stuffy toys to play with..I twied them all
The kitchen is at least small puppy sized,whew..
What is that thing pointedat me all the time..I guess it's pawt of Mommi's hand..it's aways in it
Aftew all that excitement and adventoowe..I was weally pooped!

I FOUND THE BEST PLACE TO SNEEP..DADDI'S BIG TUMMY!


So this was my fiwstest day..not litewally,cause fiwst I spent one night in Nowth Cawolina with some hoomans who wewe fwiends ,but it was my fiws day in New Yowk..my Name is Asta, not one spot giwl,,and I'm a new Yowkew thwough and thwough...I love my Mommi and Daddi and I love my life ..I'm so vewy glad we found each othew...I didn't want to gwow up to be a wepugnican...hehehe..this is mowe my style!

Now I'd like to tag my fwiends Ruby, Sir Bacon, and Goofy to tell us about theiw fiwst day home!
smoochie kisses to all my fwiends..sneep tight

What a sweet story Asta. It brought a tear to my pinkies eye as we read it together. Thanks for sharing your story with us.

Sorry we missed your pawty. It's the pinkies fault....they have no idea sometimes. We're going to make sure we're there when you turn 2.

Take it easy.

Asta: You were soooo cute, but then, you still are. Your story is sweet...I think you waited so long for your Mommi and Daddi because it was a match made in heaven.

Daniella said...

What a lovely story, you are a lucky girl to live in NY. I'm having my hair cut tomorrow and mentioned on my blog that if I come home looking hideous like the last time, can I hitch a ride to NY and hide out in your apartment with you? The thing is I'm an Anonymouse in NY, whereas here I will be the laughing stock of the 'hood if the groomers mess up AGAIN.

awww asta you were so tiny! it's funny, i would have thought the fewer spots you had the cleaner you look and the more people would like you. but good thing you were the last to go or you would have never found your Big Big daddy and Mommy!

ahh.. now i understand what 'roaching around' means.

love..

Stanley said...

Sweet ASta Girl!

You were a fuzz butt even as a wee puplet! Some things will never change.

I absolutely love your puppy pics, especially the one where you're sleeping on your daddi's tummy. I'm sure he felt even more at home having you there than he ever did before.

Your mommi & daddi are so fortunate you waited around for them. It sounds like you all have the same attitude about life ~ get out there and explore and live it!

You are bootiful through & through. So glad your mommi & daddi brought you to DWB and into my life.

Love from your Goober boy,
Stanley

You were so wittle! I love to sleep on my ladies big tummy too, it is so comfy. Sometimes I jump up and land on her tummy and she goes "Umpfff." Then I curl up and go to sleep. Nice.
