Life As Bela Sees It

Bela is my dog and she is the first love of my life. She is a min pin and chihuahua mix and she is 11 pounds of solid energy. I think she is basically the coolest dog I've ever known, but of course I'm biased. What makes her so cool are the crazy things she is always doing and the fact that she truly believes she is a human. 

Bela sneaking under the covers to sleep like the humans do

Bela is six years old now so she spends half her time sleeping the day away. This dog loves to sleep; she even knows that the word "nap" means she can run into the bedroom and start getting her spot settled. She is an expert napper. (After all, she is my dog...)

Bela LOVES to be under the blankets!

Even though Bela thinks she is a human, she totally would never help out with household chores. This is far beneath her. One day when I was folding laundry, she sat like this the whole time and would not make eye contact with me. 

Refusing to help out around the house

She's a goofy dog who likes to make games for herself wherever she goes. At my boyfriend's house, there are little toy mice because he has cats, and Bela likes to play the game "I'll bring all the mice in the house into whichever room we are all hanging out in at the time." Fun game, it's hilarious to watch her go back and forth with these little mice in her mouth. 

Got them all!!

So at the end of the day, Bela just loves life. She is certainly a character and she makes me laugh every day. Getting her was one of the best decisions I have ever made. She's so awesome all the time and puts all her energy into being awesome that sometimes it just wears her out.
