The story of my new best friend... The boss lady's baby.

A couple years ago (early 2012,) as I was getting off parole, the boss lady and I were moving in together, and getting situated... She was going through her divorce, and had separated everything. Allegedly, things were fine, amicable even. And then "Your dog ran away." It crushed her...

We got our shit together, and were on our way to a 3 year move plan. That got accelerated with a serious family illness (we moved a year and a half in) -- so, back to New Mexico. Looked for work, looked for a new baby for my baby. No luck, and so I headed up to Colorado Springs (crisis averted, mostly, in the desert.) So, I'm in the Springs, we're setting up business and nearing launch date, boss lady's getting odds-n-ends wrapped up in the desert, and regrouping for a new move. When all was collapsing, quite literally, around us, she got a text. It was a joke, including the wink at the end "Recognize this little guy?" Well, she did. It was her baby. Bad ass little Yorkie survived at least a month on the Western Mesa, and along the bosque, making his way to the south valley, where he was caught, a bit worse the wear, but still kicking strong.

Boss lady's little Yorkie, weighing in at a vicious 4#, proud little Purse Prince is back! He used to bite me, he really disliked that I took over his special pillows. Now, we're best buds... I almost had to shank a pitbull last night cuz it was talkin' smack to my buddy.

A savage softy. LoL -- it was somewhere between a month and 6 months he was out there. Coyotes, packs of feral dogs, foxes, snakes, and then there are the man-made dangers! Dude's pimp, he's earned his spot in the boss lady's Coach, and I try not to kick him off when he falls asleep on my legs...

I'm the first pic. ;-)

Yeah, my beard grows out white. Talk about a weekend appearance changer!

I tried going legit and cutting my hair, to work for The Man again, but they apparently are still upset about that whole felony thing... So, back to hair!!!

Boss lady likes the Van Gogh, she says it tickles.

What a stoke of luck! A similar thing happened to me when I returned from holiday. My Father and I searched high and low for my German Shepherd, the police had heard nothing and our chances were diminishing. All of a sudden a young man walked into the pub with my dog. I ran at him (my dog) and my Father took him off the guy.

Whats meant to be!

Thank you guys/ladies... It's a crazy survival for sure! The rabbits on the mesa are almost twice his size! And, I don't mean the Jack rabbits! While we were staying over on the west mesa, I drove by two different coyote just chowing away on dogs twice his size.

He's hilarious too... he marks so aggressively he'll pop a nugget out on accident. Won't respond to his name unless he wants food, potty, petting, or to play... he'll decide when you've got the comfy lap... and, he actually instigated the argument with that pit yesterday, tried to go back and mark it's gate...

I'll post one of him and his new girlfriend later...

And, I'm certain that this thread'll draw the boss lady back in!
