I just loved this remark! It's awesome!
Well, the moment I saw Kaji in person I couldn't wait to hold him. He had a 5 hour flight from Missouri to Los Angeles and I couldn't wait to get him out of his kennel. I was told he was a 6 lb boy and that day was his birthday. I thought great! We'll celebrate and I won't have one of those tiny yorkies (I really didn't want a tiny one). So I get there, sign for him, and rush outside. He was so far in the corner, as far away from me as he possibly could be. He looked so small, I thought he was really only 3 lbs! He was so incredibly terrified and he already acted like he hated me. He wouldn't let me touch him, he wouldn't take my chicken. Really, I was a bit heartbroken.
20 mins later, he was eating chicken and finally let me hold him. We sat on that airport bench for a while before I put him back in his kennel and headed home. I drove sooo slow hoping not to scare him any further. We got home, I gave him a bath, and I didn't put him down for the rest of the day. By the time we went to bed, he knew I was his mommy and I knew he was my baby. You should have seen how happy he was when I went to get him from his ex-pen the next morning. Now, he and I are inseparable. So much for hating me on our first meeting. That didn't last!
