Zoe...

A couple of years back my parents told us that we could finally get a dog! We went and looked at the newly born puppies and I loved them all. But there was one dog whom I just fell in love with! Come to find out, she is the one we picked. She used to be so small, she could fit into the palm of one hand. I loved her!

Zoe is a Bichon Frise.

We have trained her to do just about every trick in the book: sit, lay, roll over, play dead, dance, shake, high-five, G.I. Joe, bunny (hop up and down on hind legs), ask nicely (sit on hind legs), and go to your spot (go lay in your bed). She is one of the smartest dogs I have ever met! One of the funniest things that she does is she buries her "puppy" named Doby! Every time after she eats or at night time before before bed, she will go and bury him somewhere in the house.

Zoe and Doby!

Another thing that Zoe loves is her bed! She lays in it almost constantly! It is so funny to me because Zoe is a ton like our family. We have our moments when we love to be active and go play but we also have our moments when we like to just relax and be still. Zoe is this to the T and I love it haha.

A couple of years ago Zoe was playing with me and Spencer up on Spence's bed and Zoe ran and jumped off, she yelped really loud and then she couldn't walk. We took her into the vet and come to find out she tore her ACL. So yes, Zoe had to get surgery on her ACL :( it was the saddest thing I have ever seen! She was so sad and was just in pain all of the time. My mom stayed up with her the first night and just held her all night long. We love our dog so much and would do anything for her!

She loves us too! She is one dog who loves to cuddle! I would dare say it is one of her favorite things. If you are at home sitting on the couch or taking a nap on your bed, Zoe is always right there beside you! If you are sick, she will not leave your side all day long! She is such a sweetheart! Matt calls her, "Fluffy Pillow". Because she is so soft and loves to just snuggle in.

So if you cannot tell... we love Zoe! She has brought me through thick and thin. She is such a joy to have in our house and in my life! She is getting old and we are all so sad! I cannot picture my life without this little fluff ball!

This is just a little clip of Zoe... it cracks me up! Her toy is under the hutch... She brings so much laughter into the lives of the Baker's!

I LOVE ZOE.
