About Me

Greetings everybody! My name is Kyla and I am a Pitbull/Lab mix. I had a tough start in life; I was abandoned in a basement as a puppy during Christmas. Luckily, the wonderful people of the MSPCA rescued me and I soon found a great new home with my Mom & Dad. Despite my orphan status, I've adjusted amazingly well and have grown up to be a very responsible, respectful & outgoing young adult. I have a great life now; going to parks, playing, a huge basket of toys, Busy Bones, a warm bed (well, Mom & Dad's) and lots of love. Oh, and TENNIS BALLS!! I was a little naughty when I was younger (who doesn't eat seatbelts?) but those rebel days are behind me. There's also a cat that lives here. His love for me is annoying and he likes to steal my stuff. I'm a very active, happy girl despite being slightly handicapped. When I was two, Mom & Dad found out I had severe bilateral hip dysplasia. When it started interfering with my fun, I had surgery. Being a vet tech, my Mom knew a great surgeon who removed part of my right hip. My left hip started bothering me this July and I had my 2nd surgery in August ('07). It's been challenging and hard work, but I am doing great. So, here I am! A well-mannered, good-natured, fun-loving, hipless girl who aims to please. I'm out to disprove those myths about us types being so mean - I'm 100% about the love!

When Good Love Goes Bad: The Tennis Ball Saga

There is a proverb that states: "Where there is love, there is pain". I have recently come to understand what that means. As most of you know, I have an all-consuming love for tennis balls....

The taggers caught my Mom!

I know I declared "no more tagging blogs" but this time my MOM was actually tagged by Romeo AND Kato's Moms, so I made an exception. So, this one's all about that woman who feeds me, takes me to the p...

Injustice at the dog park

Apparently, zip codes are everything. There's a great park near my house called Fresh Pond Reservoir where I've always gone to enjoy a good run, some quality sniffing, the occasional meet-and-greet an...

So, I've been re-tagged several times and have been putting off my new list due to being stumped on what to write as 5 more weird things about me (I'm sure my Mom would say there are hundreds...). Jun...
