About me

Hello everyone, my name is Felix, and I'm 18 years old. I'm excited to share my journey and passion for dogs with you. It all started when I was 9 years old, walking home from school. That's when I met a pitbull and began playing with him. Out of nowhere, a man appeared and asked, 'Do you want him?' I was taken aback, thinking, 'What?!' He repeated, 'Do you want the dog?' I was speechless. At the time, I thought owning a dog was a luxury only the wealthy could afford, imagining they cost millions of dollars. Yet, here was this man offering me a beautiful dog, and I was completely stunned. I kept asking him “are you sure Are you sure”? “You're lying you're not giving me this dog for free?!” Then he said “do you want him or not?” I will never forget the feeling of untying him off that pole and walking away with him, while I was walking away with him I was telling the guy “ I’m taking him!..” “I’m walking awayyyy!…’ trying to see if he’d break character. I got in my house and started jumping everywhere In excitement while reminiscing about the future with my first dog! Thankfully my mom wasn’t home yet I had to think of a way to convince her to let me keep him. His name was Jordan or Pete. I will send you a picture for a visual representation of why his second name was Pete. Then my mom came home.. I couldn’t hide him because he was too big so I had no choice but to just show her and the first thing she did was run! I was laughing too hard but also was scared because I didn’t want to lose my first dog I told her all the benefits of having a dog including the part that they’re very good with Kids Note* I have 9 siblings: being 9 years old I didn’t have no one older person to help me raise a dog i had to do it on my own and did not know anything, which came with a tragic consequence I did not know Pete’s background and when I found it was too late. Pete used to get abused by his owners it was God's plan that he didn’t attack me but he had a violent background and that lead to him having aggression deep down inside. One day I was walking him and met a friend who had A couple friends over and there was girl who started taunting Pete, being 9 I couldn’t hold him and he started dragging me, he bit her wrist and broke it I got him off and they called the police I was soo scared to lose him. So I ran away from the scene it turned out the police was looking for me and Pete for a week I didn’t tell my mom because I was scared of losing him. It was just me and him Vs the world we did everything together he never lied, hit or cheated me he loved and played with me even when he had no dog food to eat! Finally The police went to my elementary school And Found me I came home from school and started looking everywhere for him my parents weren’t home so I couldn’t ask them where he was, I didn’t think of it as a big deal thinking they had him I sat in the chair and waited for them to come home when they got home I ran to them in excitement ready to hug my dog but they walked in alone I asked them “ where is Pete?” And that’s when they told me the shelter came and got him. I didn't even get to say goodbye to him! My parents seemed to not really care because they were never really a fan of dogs. I begged them to take me to see him but they never did. 2 months later the shelter called and said they had to put him down because he was sick. It felt like my whole world just collapsed I begged my parents to tell them he wasn’t sick. He just misses me and home but they never listened. I still remember sitting on the stairs crying. That was the first in my life I cried and couldn’t control it. As I was crying I asked myself “why are you crying? Stop crying!” I couldn't feel anything. My heart felt vague . It was a feeling I’ve never felt before till this day I can still feel it when I think of him. after his death that gave birth to something in me that went ahead and got 9 more dogs including my present one. if I wrote you guys a story about each of them, this would be a literal chapter book. So I will give their names and if you would like to know about each of them feel free to email me, I would be happy to tell you about each of them. Here are their names: Ava ,Teddy,Blanca,Snowy,Princess, Teddy, Sasha, and last but will never ever be least Ezekiel he was my recent dog and passed away he impacted me a lot and It's really hard for me to talk about him, my present one is Milo which you all can meet one day! You would ask “why does this kid love dogs so much?” Well here is why. I come from a background where not showing emotions is normalized where pain! Is normalized, where laughing seems like a crime! I had no-one and nothing. I was left with the question of “Who will love me through any and everything?” And that’s when Pete, Ava, Teddy, Blanca, Snowy, Princess, Teddy, Sasha and my beautiful Ezekiel came and answered that question they’re now gone but they forever live on and forever reminds me that purity is never dead
