Valkyrie

I thought I would blog some personal stories over the next couple of weeks. My husband and I have recently moved to Las Vegas so there are plenty of stories to share. Every day is a new adventure in the Lee household.....everyday is different.

My husband and I have one child.... well, one dog. She is like our child and her name is Valkyrie. She is a 4 year old Belgian Malinois (almost like a German Shepherd). She acts like a 3 year old toddler and is a total DRAMA QUEEN! I spend most of my day at home working in the office, meaning Valkyrie and I spend A LOT of time together. She is VERY protective of me. And when I say very, I mean VERY!!!! To the point that when my husband even points at me, she starts barking at him. I think it's funny, but I'm sure my husband doesn't like it when he really is trying to show me that he loves me and she starts growling and barking. However, my husband has trained her to do this. I love the fact that she protects me and I always feel safe when I'm at home. I trust her instincts more than I trust my own.... she can hear a million times better than I can. And she always gives me a good laugh when she barks at the doorbell ringing (especially when it's on the TV). Valkyrie is very much like her daddy - Her love languages are physical touch and quality time (the same as my husband's).... and she wants both from both of us!

I know that most people probably think that we are crazy because we treat our dog like our child, but oh well! They can get over it. She is an important part of our family and I can't imagine living in Las Vegas without her.


Have a blessed Wednesday!
