I refuse to call my lil boy a dog. His name is Kaju and he is my first child. Because of him, I am able to understand and respect animals like I never had before. They cry, laugh, feel pain, feel guilt and every emotion us humans feel as well. He has made me more empathetic and compassionate person overall. I have gone through times of teething and walking miles with him as a puppy to well now, administering medications and taking care of him post surgeries. My lil guy is living with my parents for now in Chicago so I am trying to sweep up every opportunity I have to interact with other furbabies :o)! Your dog will get all the affection and love with me !
