Ebu's Background |
| I was born a poor black puppy. |
| Mother was mostly Labrador. |
| Father (can you really call him more than a Sperm donor?!) left even before I was weaned.In fact, he probably was down the block before theegg and sperm even met. |
| I was taken from my mother, deposited with my 2 sisters and 3 brothers into a noisy place. It smelled of distress.
|
| There were with kind humans, but behind the fences, they were not so warm. I cuddled with my two sisters.
|
| My two sisters left. Then I was taken. But my brothers remained. I still feel a hole where they should be. Every time I walk by a chain link fence I count 5 holes, one for each of my siblings. The holes become vacuums and I miss them. |

Some times, when we go to the park, I look around for other black dogs with a mixed pedegree. When I see one, I look into its eyes, just to see if I can see a part of myself. But later, when it is time to nap, I wonder if I could even recognize them? |
