Mochi



On June 3rd 2017, someone gave us a new friend; a four-legged friend. She was from Mexico and was born around Nov 1 2016.  My daughters Maya & Mira are excited to meet her. Brown medium size dog about 45 lbs, very skittish and shy.  We named her Mochi because Maya wants a Japanese name for her.  Today she is probably about 55 lbs, knows some tricks like lay down, sit, play dead, clean your feet, stand and shake. She still feels insecure around new dogs or people but a lot better now.  She ruined 2 dog beds that we got her, and made few accidents inside the house before, but hey we all made mistakes!  We give her best dog food, sometimes grilled chicken or turkey soup with rice, sweet potatoes, carrots etc.  She sleep next t me on her bed at night, and I let her out in the morning to do her business in the backyard..  Mochi still needs to learn how to walk properly, not keep stopping every few seconds to smell the flowers, I mean the ground.  Having a dog is so much work, it's like having another kid, do I need a 5th one???  Don't think so, but we are stuck with Mochi for now. She loves us all but I think she loves me the most ( I might be bias).
