what do you do when you miss your baby? i'm an only child. unlike most kids whom ask for a sibling, i've always asked for a puppy ( i really liked being an only child). so in grade 4, my parents got me a yorkie puppy and i named him mickey. so, mickey and i have been living under the same roof for like 8-9 years. then i go off to the university 2 hours away from home so i moved to where my school is. during first year, i never realized i missed my puppy. i guess because i had 30 new best friends. (its really over whelming coming from an only child home, into 30 new roommates). so in second year, i started to notice more because i moved out of res and into a house with 4 other roommates. when i'm in my room, i started to get lonely because mickey wasn't here. i got so lonely i got a fish. though the fish greeted me every morning when i woke up (it always swam towards me). so whenever i called home, i always asked my parents to put me on the speaker phone so i can talk to him. he'd always respond. my mom said he always runs to my room as i talk to him. But luckily, i was fortunate enough to go home every month. first or last weekend of each month. though i miss my dog, it wasn't bad because i get to see him once a month.
i've always wanted to bring mickey to london with me because he was a present to me, making him my dog, but he favours my parents over me. and my parents are worried that he might get depressed without my parents. which i totally understand.
i thought buying myself a dog will make me feel better, but i'm a full time university student with no part time job, and no way my parents are willing to pay to support two dogs and because i'm not finacially set i decided against it. (though i plan on getting another puppy when i graduate and get myself a full time job)
this summer (may-august), i am in korea, staying with an aunt's family. i am 14 hours away from my dog (14 hours on the plane that is...) and i don't know how to deal with it. my aunt's family has 2 dogs: white maltese and a white westie terrier, but they're not mickey. its been 2 whole months since i saw mickey and i miss him.
how do you deal with you being away from your puppy??? i tried watching a video clip of my mom trainning mickey to walk with shoes and it only made me cry
p.s i do apologize for a very long post. i had to pour my heart out. who'd understand better about missing your yorkie than you guys? |
