JASPERITO



So when my dad got married and his wife moved in, along came a dog...Jasper. He is part min pin part chihuahua and might I say so flippin cute. He is one and a half years old, and 5 pounds 6 ounces. He is a cuddly guy who likes to sit on your lap when you have a blanket on. But he doesn't like visitors. He growls and barks like he is big enough to do something about it. We have also learned that we must make sure our socks are in the hamper and not the floor because he will run away with them and eventually want you to play tug of war with them. He also loves basking in the sun. As you can see in both these pictures he is proped up on the most comfortable thing he can find in the direct sunlight. He gets his nick name Jasperito as you see in the title from my brother and I. My brother enjoys "playing" with Jasper, and taking advantage of how small he is. His favorite past time is wrapping him up in a blanket and making him a Jasper Burrito. To which I have shortened to Jasperito.
My favorite part about having him around is how every morning when everyone leaves to go to work or school and I am still in bed I hear a scratch coming from the door and eventually it pushes open. Jaspers jumps up onto my bed and dives under the covers. He makes sure that he is snuggled right up against me and goes back to sleep. If I happen to move in my sleep away from Jasper he gets right up and snuggles him self so he is right up against me again. LOL. I love this little guy.

Too funny...all those things you wrote about Jasper are things that our short haired chihauha (sp?), Emma, does too!
