Once Upon a Minion..

 

Alex and myself have been blessed to have two of the weirdest minions ever. 

Shadow is black lab crossed with a American bulldog. We adopted Miss.Shadow almost a year ago.We were her third home in a month, her previous owner moved and did not want to take her with therefor pushing "candy"(her first name) onto a friend of her's who renamed her shadow. Shadow didn't do well at a shooting range where she would jump up every time the gun was fired so he placed her on online.

Alex and myself were looking for a dog and saw shadows add, we both agreed we would just go to look at her but we fell in love the moment we saw her she didn't bark when we knocked. She came walking around the corner with her ears down, We sat on the floor to allow her to come see us and after a kiss to the face she came home 30 minutes later. Shadow didn't come with anything so our first stop was a pet store then straight home.

Miss. Shadow is very laid back, but extremely awkward.

She is very attached to Alex and I and has to be very close to you if she can. Every night when crawling into bed shadow with stand right next to you and just stare at you, for no reason she just wants to look.

When one of us gets out of bed in the morning she will take your spot and spoon the person who is left until its time to get out of bed.

After having Shadow for awhile we felt she needed a furry friend to keep her busy while we were working. 

Ivy is a miniature dachshund mixed with a yorkie terrier, She was found also online, when we went to go view the litter she wasn't the one we were there to see but that dog wanted nothing to do with us it only wanted to be near is mother unlike Ivy who came right over with no fear crawled onto my lap and fell asleep, The breeder said that she was the runt of the litter and didn't get along with the other puppies all that well, but that didn't stop me. Ivy was taken home that night and introduced to Miss. Shadow who took her under her wing within minutes.

Ivy is crazy,she is always on the go(unless she has her hoodie on, it calms her down for some reason) Ivy only weights 6 pounds but that doesn't stop her from getting into everything which has resulted in her name around the house to be garbage dog. Her all time favorite thing to eat is nose tissues, She knows the sound of the box and will come running from anywhere to snag one from you. 

I don't know how my life would be if i didn't have my girls to come home to, They brighten up my day and take great care of me when Alex is working. Minion cuddles are the most comforting cuddles that could be given.
