Nick
|
About 1 month ago I passed out in our
living room and fell to the floor. The phone had been ringing a lot so
it was on the end table next to the couch. Somehow Nick knew what he
needed to do. He got phone and placed it on my chest. Then he
started to lick me and paw at my chest a little. I woke up to
wonderful kisses and my poor puppy crying. I was shocked at what he
had done. For the rest of the day he wouldn't leave my side. He
followed me everywhere. My baby's not a fighter, he's a hero!
