For the people stressing out with finals, here’s my dog that takes away some of my stress. #hideyokids #dogs (Taken with instagram)

This picture was taken around 9AM this morning. I woke up, turned around and found Sasha sleeping in this “play dead” position. I honestly thought she was a goner!! I made sure she was breathing (I felt like an idiot after). What kind of dog sleeps like this on a bed? Maybe it’s just me lol.
Here I am on the couch with my fat dog sleeping by my side. As always, her butt is in my direction and I am scratching her back and holding her paw. Sasha’s feeling a little under-the-weather again— tail between the legs, slow movements and the shakes. I find it funny how my parents are very concerned of her. When I first got Sasha, my dad said to take her away. Mom didn’t want her either.
Today, I find my parents giving Sasha so much love. I haven’t been home lately and I know my parents miss me. They use Sasha in place of me, I suppose. They take her around during errands and have conversations with her. When someone yells at Sasha, my dad yells back in her defense. Mom buys her clothes more than she buys me anything. My dad prefers Sasha to sleep in their room. They depend on Sasha waking them up in the morning. Sasha even motivates my dad to exercise, which he hasn’t done in years ever since he quit his Softball league.
Comforting. Loving. Funny. Heroic. I love dogs. This is a thank you blog to my dog. Get well soon.
