Tee & me

When Aja passed I was mourning her for a long, long time. It was like a window in my heart where the wind blew me apart. In the middle of the emotional storm I manifested that I needed to honor her by expanding my heart, and I decided to foster a dog in need. Divine synchronicity again... I come home, I turn on my computer and there's a message for my friend Sylva Kelegian, devoted rescuer extraordinaire. She sent me a picture of a dog looking straight at me with those eyes, you have seen those eyes, you know what I'm talking about! A few hours later Sylva is in my yard with Tony, rescued from a landfill in North Hollywood. A few litters later, surviving scars on her forehead, Tony has a broken leg with a cast on it. She has no manners. She doesn't really know what a house is. Sylva is leaving. Tony howls. She knows that her life savior is not coming back. Oh boy, another misfit, she's gonna be a hand-full. Great, now what am I going to do? "Well, it's just you and me. I'll keep you until your cast comes off young lady, and I am not going to call you Tony, even if it's for a few weeks, it'll be Tee. Yeah, that's right, don't look at me like that, it's Tee now. Don't ask me why." Tee knew right away that she could persuade me to never let her go. The seduction game was on. She worked at it and worked at it, and she relentlessly worked at it until my guard was down. Tee's magic was stronger than my resistance. She wrapped me around her paw like a pro. Thank you Sylva. Tee's an amazing dog, and I need more than a thousand words to describe our extraordinary bond.
