Unlike Xiao Bi, Coco likes to stay close to us. Always eager to please, although sometimes it’s a little annoying, because she will do whatever in takes to get close, including stepping on Xiao Bi. Nevertheless, always a good companion.

When we adopted Coco back in June 2009, we wanted to have a companion for Xiao Bi so she wouldn’t be so bored and start messing up the place – yes I’ll admit, that was our primary intention. After having Gobi (Xiao Bi’s sister) and Xiao Bi, I didn’t want to buy another dog and decided that there were so many strays out there waiting to be adopted and I’ll have one of them. The right one. So we met Coco.
She was so small when she first joined us. My family always made fun of her almost-entirely-black appearance – even her tongue has some black spots!
Though she was small, she still wrestled with Xiao Bi. And Xiao Bi being the big sister was surprisingly very gentle with her new mate – in fact she has NEVER been that gentle to me before!
In no time, Coco has grown into a piece of black wind (if there is such a thing) full of energy, running around the house digging and chewing on things like nobody’s business. And that’s when we realised OMG WE’VE GOT OURSELVES ANOTHER XIAO BI!
Anyway, HAPPY 1 YEAR OLD, Coco! I hope now that you’ve finally celebrated your first birthday, you’ll learn not to crawl into the neighbour’s yard, not to play with anything handy or not handy including paints, not to eat everything you see including the toys, not to eat your own poop – and PLEASE STOP POOPING ON YOUR OWN BLANKET! We love you! So I tried again today. Only to find these in the yard. One of Xiao Bi’s toys. Kinda ‘eaten’ by Coco after she joined the family.
Xiao Bi’s second ball. It was first rolled over by a car, and then destroyed by both of them. They still love it though.
The basketball. It’s too big for both of them to carry so Xiao Bi decided to dig a hole and bury it – NOBODY should play with it!
Scratches on dad’s bamboo gate. Most of them are from Xiao Bi when she kinda tried a.k.a forced to open the gate.
Anyway, since Wah is not around, I’m in charge. I love that Xiao Bi got the idea and behaved really well during our evening walk these few days. Coco hasn’t improved much but I’m working on it. So Coco, YOU HEAR ME! NO PULLING! But. They are always a huge mess. This is what they do on a daily basis. They wrestle.
And then there are you-bite-my-back-I-bite-yours scenes.
If one of them ever sit down to catch a breath, the other will make sure she does her part of disturbing.
And then you’ll see them jumping on / over / at each other.
And pretending that they can bite.
