Hi, my name is Chloe Sasha Cruz and I am a young 11.5 year old Shih Tzu. I have a big personality in a little body. My family says that I may be a cat because I have a lot of cat traits… like rubbing my whole body against your leg whenever I get the opportunity. I love stretching my front legs and clawing your feet, my mama always says ouch… I dunno why. I have a brother named Bailey, he is 11 years old and is twice my size. I love to tease him and bite his ears with my gums since I barely have any teeth. I have two human sisters one older and one younger. My mommy and daddy bought me home when I was 9 weeks old. I enjoy cuddling and playing with my brother as well as visiting my cousin Tyler who is a Schnauzer. Recently I started having a pain in my front leg and began limping. Then all of a sudden a lump appeared and it started to grown rapidly. My mommy was very concerned and took me immediately to visit my doctor. We went to a few other doctors including a big big big hospital and they did some tests on me. In the last appt. my mommy was very upset and says its time to remove my leg because of the nasty lump called a tumor. I don’t mind I been running around with my 3 good legs and its easy peasy. I am trying to show mom that its really no big deal and I got this. I think she is starting to understand but is smothering more than usual and giving me tons of extra treats… which of course I don’t mind. I am getting ready for my surgery on Friday. Mommy and my sisters went shopping for me… Hooray!! New bed, new clothes, a new very soft harness and even new food/water bowls. I like this!!! What girl doesn’t like getting spoiled? 🙂 They also got my brother a few things because they didn’t want him to feel sad. Everyone is being so great. I have gotten a few visitors too, my aunties have been stopping by and smothering me. I’m very grateful for all the love and attention. I am going to show everyone that I’m a tough cookie and there is nothing to worry about. I will give an update of how I’m feeling after surgery. Maybe my mommy will post something of her own. She is an emotional wreck and may need to vent. Thanks for reading my new blog. WOOF! WOOF!
