Hello, I’m Dr. Maja! Learn my introduction to study extra about me and my two crossbreed canines, Lava and Hela.
Christmas time lastly! Full of pleasure, household traditions, nice meals, and laughter. Or in the event you ask my canines, tasty treats, new toys, and lengthy walks. After which it begins. With social media insanity, you’ll be able to’t keep away from seeing photos of different individuals’s pets in varied festive costumes across the tree and the like. All of them look so completely happy and content material! And I needed to marvel, what would Lava consider this? Properly, I ought to have recognized higher; she wasn’t impressed. However the look on her face was priceless.
Does Lava Hate Christmas or Simply Dressing Up?
Lava is a grump. She has a knack for making the kinds of facial expressions that present the utmost displeasure and annoyance. It’s so humorous, and she or he will need to have realized we discover it entertaining, so she retains doing it. Lava is a really cussed canine. She hates all the things that wasn’t her personal selection. And that is the place costumes are available in.
In all honesty, I haven’t even thought of getting her a correct physique costume, as she is so huge and has such dense fur that she can be too sizzling in it. However a scarf is a unique story. I discovered a cute reindeer one, however it wasn’t straightforward to get her to maintain it on. It took me days and numerous treats to get her to tolerate it for no less than a couple of minutes, and for her to comprehend it’s nothing that dramatic. However she disagreed and put up a face prefer it was the worst factor that ever occurred to her. Not less than in her reminiscence.
However She Seems So Cute
I don’t suppose that Lava cares a lot about Christmas as such. However she does care deeply concerning the headband. She hates sporting it. I did, nonetheless, handle to take a number of photos of her. Some look lovable, whereas others virtually seem as if she is being tortured. Lava is a drama queen, and that is apparent in most of the photographs I’ve taken of her over the previous couple of years, in addition to final Christmas. This 12 months, I made a decision to respect her want to not put on the scarf.
What Lava Loves About This Time of 12 months
In any other case, I do know Lava loves the wintertime. Though she enjoys the good outside, mendacity down subsequent to the fireside, no less than for quarter-hour till she realizes it’s method too heat for her, and snoozing all through the afternoon are her second-best pastimes. Third place goes to selecting up the logs and sticks that might be used within the hearth, however as a substitute of taking them to the fireside, she carries them to the couch and chews them on there. And he or she seems to be fully confused once I take them from her and attempt to clear the mess earlier than my mum sees it.
After which we typically get snow. If we’re fortunate sufficient to have sufficient of it to stay to the bottom, Lava can’t wait to be out, working round like a loony, rolling in it on her again, chasing the cat, and getting her entire head below the snow, sniffing for issues beneath. It’s a pleasure to observe her.
The Christmas Tree Is Far Extra Attention-grabbing
Lava additionally loves the Christmas tree. When she was only a pet, she tried to take the decorations down and chew on the branches. She loves a very good stick. Now she is aware of higher, however her waggy tail is much more of a hazard. It knocks down the decorative balls from the bottom and furthest branches. This is likely one of the the reason why, for this 12 months, I’m critically contemplating having the tree exterior, the place it’s out of the attain of two clumsy and curious canines, and now three cats. In any other case, it could be a short-lived Christmas tree.
Festive Season With Pets
I benefit from the Christmas time of the 12 months, however I wouldn’t say I’m loopy about it, like some. And having canines and cats limits what number of decorations you’ll be able to put up. And the place. The whole lot must be very excessive up and out of attain of those 5 creatures; in any other case, it could be chaos. But it surely nonetheless seems like Christmas.
