Hi everyone. We’ve been
pretty busy lately.
You’ve met one of the K-9
Town Chihuahua families, no nonsense (sometimes) Paco, feisty Conchita and their
pups, Lee, Lii and Luu, the puppy leaders.
Well, Paco and Conchita
came to me with a problem.
They wanted me to find
a way for Paco’s uncle, Taco, to visit K-9 Town.
They hadn’t seen him in
a long time and missed him very much. Taco had never met Lee, Lii and Luu,
which was something that weighed heavily on them.
Family is something we
treasure here at K-9 Town, so I immediately started thinking about how I could
make this happen.
In addition, the
females had gathered.
They had heard stories
about uncle Taco’s life and how he and his human Mom, Jackie Stewart, helped others
trying to keep their communities safe. As usual, the females were ready to
offer some of their one-of-a-kind nurturing.
The K-9 Town males,
stayed back, smiling and making jokes, knowing that the females would get their
way, though in this matter Paco and Conchita didn’t need their support.
All of us relished the
thought of hearing some of the “Tales of the City” that Taco would surely tell.
The next step was to
contact Ma and my baby brother, Babee Blue.
Ma agreed that we had
to get Taco to K-9 Town. She contacted Taco’s mom Jackie, who agreed it would
do Taco good to get away for a short time, though she would miss him very much.
Babee was soon on his
way. He was looking forward to seeing his little friend and getting him to K-9
Town.
When Babee arrived, Taco
was surprised to see him because their usual meetings were done travelling
through Facebook. “Hi Babee. It’s good to see you. What’s up,” he asked.
As Babee explained why
he was there. The mention of Taco’s family at K-9 Town brought undeniable
excitement.
After many kisses, hugs
and “I’ll be back soons,” to his Mom, Taco was ready to go.
Then it was up to Ma! How she does it I don’t know, because she
won’t tell.
Babee Blue and Taco got
here safe and sound. We had all been
waiting but we gave Taco a chance to visit with his family. Paco, Conchita and uncle Taco could be heard
whooping it up, until they finally were ready to share him.
Puppies Lee, Lii and
Luu weren’t happy because they wanted uncle Taco to play with them forever.
He was dressed and
looking quite dapper as he started spinning his tales. Like his nephew Paco, once he started there
was no stopping him.
A few of the females were
vying for his attention, and they were getting it. That cool rascal knew how to handle himself.
We loved it! We all wished Taco could stay with us, but he
said he’d miss Ms. Jackie too much. I
knew how he felt. I miss Ma even though we’ll never lose our connection. Ma
won’t let that happen.
As all fun stuff must
end, it was time for me to get Taco back home. We had a chance to chat.
The main thing is, Taco
knows he has lots of family here at K-9 Town, because we’re all family. We hope
he’ll visit again soon and often. He promised he would and we believe him.
Especially the Fiesta
Sisters….
Come back soon.
