Have you ever given a Shoe carton box full of happiness to your family? Can you ever bring an angel to your home without knowing that she is an angel? Yes you can. It was some 8 months back on the eve of 2013’s advent, on a rainy evening my cousin shiva having been drenched in rain brought a shoe carton box much to everyone’s bewilderment in the family. He told my aunts not to scathe him after seeing what is there in the Shoe carton box. Before anyone could start guessing of what is inside, a sudden squeal came from it and in a jiffy he opened the box. Inside it there was a beautiful creamy cute little pup which was struggling to open its eyes. Petrified in its beauty and cuteness, no one spoke for few seconds. The cutie pie screeched again breaking everyone’s excitement and silence.
The happiness weighed a few hundred grams inside this Shoe Carton box ! |
He let her down. She was just a few hours old and so she
couldn’t either stand or open her eyes. Before knowing the dictionary meaning
of the word “Hygiene” I got to know its exact definition by observing my family
members. Hygiene and my family have always been together through thick and
thin. “Hygiene factor” and “My home” are the two words that will always go hand
in hand. Having been born to a family where love and hygiene have always been given
equal importance I have always wondered if I am a misfit to my family when it
comes to the latter, Though I am not as bad as you start to imagine me now.
Having spoken so much about the hygiene stuff, you guys are
absolutely right if you had predicted that my aunts didn’t allow the pup to be
there further. Yes it was an obvious fact and for obvious reasons. Shiva
convinced them saying that he will let the pup out once she starts to walk and
eat on her own. Yes my aunts were bit stubborn earlier, but later when the
cutie pie squeaked again, their philanthropic hearts melted. She was then fed
with a bowl of boiled milk which she struggled to swallow on her own. As days
passed by I found no big difference between the pup and an infant. Like any
infant she too had the habit of sleeping 18 to 20 hours a day and puking all
that is fed to her. She did puke her food like how an infant does in its early days.
Within a week we all started loving the cutie pie. In fact she had become an
additional member in my family. It didn’t take much of a time to christen her.
Within few days of her arrival she was christened as “Snoopy”. Ink filler (Milk
filler) became her spoon very sooner. It didn’t take much of days for her to
scrawl and walk on her own. Her cute little furs attributed to her silky smooth
skin.
Easiest way to fall in love: Come home lift her up and you will fall in love ! |
Teach me to walk and I will teach you what is unfathomable love ! "Cuteness redefined " - Isn't She Cute? |

There came those beautiful days where you can never resist
and restrain yourself from lifting the little pup and making her sleep on your
lap. Snoopy then became the center of attraction for everyone in our apartment
ranging from juveniles to patriarchs. She loves bourbon, hide and seek, milk
cream and ice creams more than I and my cousin actually do. She is mad about
chocolates especially the dairy milk. She just turns frenzy the moment you open
the refrigerator because as far as she is concerned the maroon colored cold
storage room in our home is where we hide her favorite eatables. She never had
a personal grudge against us whenever her request is denied; she never complains
about it rather she eats her food happily with a glittering eyes beamed with a
ray of happiness whenever we serve her.- Josh Billings
Anger is a sign of love! Yes She is Angry just because we compelled her for an early morning bath |
“Snoopy... Snooooooooopy” has now become the most widely
chanted mantra of late in our home. Have you ever wondered how a true love
feels and looks like? Want to know what an unconditional and unfathomable love
is? Play hide and seek with her in the home. The moment she finds you out or
the moment you remove your palms hiding your face, you will be licked to death.
The more you gently nuzzle and snuggle her head and neck, the more she will
lick you with her tail wagging at about 120 wags per minute. If you don’t call
that love a true one probably you don’t know what love is.
The Routine for her on any day is as simple as this, get up
early in the morning and bark at us to convey ‘I want a walk with you outside
the home, I am hungry I want something to eat and I will eat whatever you give
me without complaining, treat me like a slave by throwing a cosco or rubber
ball or a cloth or a stick as far as you can and I will bring it back to you as
fast as I can. Make me exhausted playing this kind of drudgery games so that I
will sleep like a kid and get up again and will lick you till death.
And I finally started walking on my own! |

“If the God is one whom you can trust and believe, during your hard
times and when he is the one whom you seek for a happy life then no wonder that
a DOG is spelled as the exact reversal of GOD”. In my opinion if you call
someone who gives you happiness and a peace of mind as God, then the Dog you
own can be the God in disguise at your home.- Johnny Depp
The official Labrador posture! This is how she sleeps and sees TV |
To whomsoever who told happiness can never be bought, my cousin shiva had bought this cute little sweet pup for free of cost from his friend. 240 odd beautiful days of happiness and I wish I had the power to transform Snoopy into an immortal soul so as to make the happiness around us a timeless eternity. Aren’t dogs the best companion of humans? Own a puppy and you would say yes Indeed
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and man.

Picking up a stray dog from the street and fostering her really speaks volume about the great heart, wish we all are as sympathetic towards human also.
