The energy I had gotten after Ketch named me was unbelievable. I ran around the room, yipping and yapping while Ketch rolled around laughing. This went on for awhile until our excitement lowered enough for Ketch to speak.
"Hey Melo!" Ketch said while he grabbed one of the many odd looking objects. "You know what this is?"
I seated myself in front of him and tilted my head. By the look Ketch's face I knew that he understood what I was trying to say. I mean he was my best friend.
"You're telling me a cute little pupper like yourself had never seen a squeaky toy?!" Ketch said amazed.
He then squeaked the so called squeaky toy and the sound it created was like a choir of angels singing to the Lord.
"OOHH you like that don't you now?" Ketch said laughing.
I tracked that round, green< fuzzy ball with my eyes as he taunted me. Tossing it from one hand to the other as I felt my curiosity quickly growing and my feet move faster and faster.
Out of nowhere Ketch threw the ball at me and I caught it with my mouth and ran off going i don't know where. All I could think about was how amazing that ball was. The way it squeaked every time I chewed it. The way it bounced when ever I dropped it.That ball was perfect.
Me just running around Ketch's home quickly turned into a game of fetch. I remember Ketch throwing that perfect ball I running to retrieve the ball. I remember clearly the look of surprise drawn on his face when I came back with that green ball without him telling me to. That was the day that our bond came from "just a feel" to a bond that you could see.
Even though many months passed since we played fetch for the first time, Ketch and i made a goal to play that game every day, and every day we did.
"Do you know what happened on this very special day Melo?" Ketch asked having a bunch of Frosted Flakes in his mouth.
I stopped eating my breakfast of Ol'Roy and tilted my head. I only knew My adoption day which was months ago and his birthday which is coming up but not today.
"It's your Birthday Buddy your a year old know!!" ketch said happily as he poured more Frosted Flakes into his bowl. " In dog age you are 7 years old so because It's your birthday we are going to go on adventure on the beach!"
Sense i had never been to the beach i was very excited and very curios. I started scarf down my food so Ketch would know I want to leave NOW and not later.
"Okay, okay Melo!" ketch said laughing we will leave early since you are dying to go."
Trying but miserably failing at holding in my excitement, I watched as he set his bowl and spoon in the sink and slowly started to walk to were my leash and his shoes were placed at.
Ketch grabbed his sandals, put them on and opened the door to the passenger's seat. i jumped in we took off heading to the beach.
