Proud Momma

Yesterday, as Fritz and I were walking with Vito in Urdaneta village, a car screeched to a halt and a woman opened the car door calling out to us. In that split moment as I took in her colorful outfit and equally colorful hair, I imagined a million scenarios ranging from "Fritz's ex?" to "It wasn't me!!!"

When the woman called out, "Is that your dog?" I was thinking, "Oh no, don't tell me dogs aren't allowed here or something."

"Yes he is!" Fritz and I yelled back.

"What kind of dog?"

"A Jack Russel"

"He's very active isn't he? A friend of mine has one and when she throws the ball up in the air he catches it even before it bounces on the ground..."

As the woman rattled on and talked about her friend's Jack Russel, I couldn't help but think: "Wow, my dog stops traffic!"

I am soooooooooo proud of this uber cute canine who has come into our lives and taken over, much as we try not to let him!
