Ziggy and I did not have love at first sight - in fact, the opposite. She was not impressed with me and I tried to give her up because she was so overwhelming.
We love each other now, but that took months. I now feel her as like an extension of me, or I of her - we move in rhythm that works for us. I mean, I'll be glad when she's no longer a puppy and wants to nap more than play, but I love her enthusiasm and cheer.
But meeting my best friend for the first time - oh good lord, it's like the dog and her had been BFFs since eternity. Instant bond. And Ziggy adores her sister - who when taking a nap, Ziggy climbed up and laid beside her, putting her head on the sister's shoulder, and the sister held her paw. Ziggy doesn't let me anywhere near her paws since I TWICE cut her to the quick and hurt her.
The nieces are more meh. They're young adults and Ziggy thinks they act too cool.
Also, I did not fall in love at first sight with the animals at the shelter.
I just love my dog. I wish all the other dogs well, but they stink.
