Finally... More About Stanford



Finally someone has commented on my Stanford. O.K. I'll will now tell the never before told story of "Stanford". Oh and if you can't really tell Stanford is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

Let me begin at... well the beginning. Stanford was to big for his mother(Lily) so she had to go through a C-section. When the vet got out Stan he wasn't breathing so the vet literally took him by his back legs and swung him until whatever was obstructing his breathing came out. After this Stanford was pretty much O.K. and he also has a much smaller sister named Roxy.
My mom used to watch over the kids of the owner of Lily and so one day my dad got an Idea...
It was December the winter was cold and we were watching Lily and her pups. My mom really loved Stanford, as he was a really unique little pupper. Anyway on Christmas Eve my dad got a call he had to go into work (I guess there's crime on even the Holiest of days... Just so know my dad is a State Trooper). I was so mad, I HATE criminals! In my mind I was totally steaming off, I was thinking every word that I would never think of to say of out loud. My dad was all in uniform and said his goodbyes and I love yous, then went out the door. I later found out that my dad is a pretty good actor.
It was less than a half hour later when we saw a car come up the driveway, my dad came through the door with a wonderful surprise for my mom in his hands he had the (not so)little Stanford bundled up in a Christmas stocking and my dad said "Merry Christmas" and that was the day Stanford became an official part of our family.
Today Stanford is 4 years old and he is very "special" I know how everyone probably believes their dog is special, but I;m not saying that I saying that Standford is "special". I think that something must have came loose when the veterinarian swung him on the day of his birth, as of every time he meets someone new he has to look them straight in the eye, sniff them for about a minute, and then walks away and treats them as if they weren't even there. He also runs straight into things and acts as if nothing happens, whenever he sniffs something he always has to put his face right on it, and many other strange things that I've never seen another dog do.
Well thats all I have to say about Stanford for now. If you have any questions just ask.
Well Thanks For Reading.
