Macho Gwapito Elmo!


Cool Slideshows


The one thing that keeps me sane during my hormonal mood swings is Elmo. Elmo is my 1 year old American Bulldog whom I simply adore. We take long, lazy walks in the afternoons. I enjoy the breeze and watch the sunset, while he munches on all the foliage he can find. Yes, he loves leaves - the greener, the better. Let's just say he is very particular with his diet.

Every afternoon, when I come down for a drink or a snack, he always sits in full attention knowing that I'm there. Then when I peep through the door, he always gives me that adorable cute puppy look, complete with the bending of the neck to the right, to make him more irresistable.

I like walking with Elmo, because he doesn't leave my side. When we get to a lonely street, where there are hardly any pedestrians, cars and houses, I let him loose. The first time I did it, I was expecting that I would be running after him,shouting for him to come back. But surprises of surprises, it seems like he maintains a 2 meter radius from me. That when I try to walk away from him, he instantly runs to my side. He's such a big baby.

When I sit down and give him time to check out the new greens in the area, I talk to him. Maybe in a weird way he understands, because I told him about how the neighbor's roosters were getting to my nerves. Well, when we got home, maybe he felt I was irritated by all the noise the roosters were making, he was ready to pounce at them. Thank God he listens to my whistle or there would've been one dead rooster that I would have to pay for.

"Elmo sneaking up on the roosters."
