Dexter

Gurmeet- Hi friends! How many of you are dog lovers??

Debina- Our city has many actually and now we are proud parents of one ourself!

Gurmeet- His name is Dexter. And he became part of our family just when he was 27 days old!

Debina- I think one's name affects them in several ways and so we chose this cartoony name. Dexter in fact resembles my previous dog, a she, Elpa a lot! She was a boxer I had as a kid but she is no longer

Gurmeet- But you now have Dexter! And it is really wonderful how you look after him even though he cant obviously express much

Debina- Ya my sleep cycles been accustomed to his! Although I anyway need to wake up by 7 for dance class.. Dexter used to initially start making those very cute puppy sounds early morning!

Gurmeet- And then he realized your wake up alarm was set to a few minutes after he would start his siren and now you both rise together!

Debina- Ya! Isn't it surprising how dogs understand everything and get habituated easily?!

Gurmeet- True.. Whenever I raise my voice at him, he goes to one corner quietly and has a very sad look on his face. Especially his eyes! Its like he will start crying any minute!

Debina- Dexter is just the best! Except when I have to potty-train him when we go outdoors!

Gurmeet- I think it's the excitement of stepping out that gets him really jumpy

Debina- Totally! He bounces and sniffs around, doing everything but what Ive taken him out for.

Gurmeet- Dexter is a little unruly too though. Just like a kid!

Debina- He has this unusual liking for sleeping on the cold, bare floor which only gets him a cold!

Gurmeet- Most dogs are fond of soft, comfortable beds but I guess Dexter is special in this case too

Debina- He sure is!!!

Gurmeet- What about you all, friends?

Debina- Any pets you have and their peculiar habits??

Love,

Gurmeet and Debina
