Shadow

✎ Where did they love to sleep?
For several years, Shadow slept on different dog beds, then one day we both discovered that he enjoys sleeping on blankets A LOT. It was so funny because I woke up to him missing from his bed, only to find him on my blanket I set on the floor in the corner of the room. He looked so cute cuddled up in it. He also had a habit of taking way too long to "fix" it before finally laying down.

Shadow did NOT like the snow, but he looked SO adorable in it.

Shadow LOVED to dress up and his favorite holiday was Halloween!

Shadow's first and only time taking a picture with Santa. Poor Santa struggled to hold Shadow because he kept trying to come back to me and he almost ripped Santa's beard off! Santa had a laugh though, he was a good sport.

✎ How brave were they at the vet?
Shadow hated being at the vet and everyone in it. He didn't like being held by strangers and often growled, especially when getting his shots and temperature taken (ouch). His tiny growls were so cute though!

✎ What was the very first moment you saw them?
I met him in March 2010. He was only 2 months old and I was 15 years old. My Mother wanted to get me a puppy that I had wanted since I was a kid. My Sister knew a friend of a friend was giving away puppies. Shadow was the last to be adopted because he was black and the runt. They all missed out on the best, goodest boy. They brought him home and I saw him in our backyard. I fell in love and asked my Mom if we could keep him immediately. She turned to me and said "He's yours."

Shadow had many great birthdays. He absolutely knew it was all for him and he loved it, especially the cake!

Since I was a kid, my family and I love to go to a hiking trail every Fall to see the leaves in their beautiful colors and feel the great weather. Of course Shadow came along too once he became part of our family. He enjoyed the breeze and smells of nature.
