Every moment spent with Gigi Marie is precious! She is a WOMAN of mystery, who has a heart of gold and a force to be reckoned with!
I caught up with Miss Gigi (or GiWah as she is fondly known to her family) recently and had a chance to ask her how things are going.
Gigi Marie expressed great concern for other pets, especially those impacted by all the floods and fires. She has given money to help them find safety, food, water, shelter, have their medical needs met and, in some cases, new homes. She has a wonderful family and truly wishes the same for all other animals and pets.
Gigi Marie is a Bichon Yorkie girl with gorgeous wavy locks. True to the nature of Bichon Yorkies, she is very loving and sweet (although there are some exceptions…) and she is uber smart! She knows her way around the neighborhood, which homes and people are friendly, and has an enormous sense of style. When she was a wee little puppy her coat was a rich apricot, but, like many so many ladies of fashion, she has gotten blonder with age. So, now, her hair seems to be beautifully frosted with hints of apricot showing underneath.
She does like to maintain a bit of mystery — what woman doesn’t? When I asked her about her “story” she got quiet and demurred about her earliest days. It was a difficult time until her parents rescued her from a bad situation. However Miss Gi visibly brightened and wagged her tail as we discussed her home life today. She adores her Mother and Father!
They adore her, too! They even have a portrait of her hanging in their family room.
She loves them very much and definitely feels that she is at the heart of their family. She misses them when they are gone and wants to be part of everything that they do — even going so far as to help them host whenever there are guests in the house. Gigi Marie is an excellent conversationalist! She goes on lots of long walks with both her Mom and Dad and her Grandparents. She especially loves to go see Grandma and Grandpa because she is THE CENTER of attention at their house!
A social girl, Miss Gigi adores (most of) her neighbors and likes to dress up as she parades around the ‘hood. Here are a couple of her favorite outfits.
How does she maintain her svelte figure and stunning coat and nails? The daily walks are a MUST! A long walk early in the day is usually followed by several little jaunts later on. She loves the exercise, but, she is also interested in everyone she sees and smells!
Every now and again Miss Gi gets taken out to dinner at Chick-Fil-A and indulges in chicken nuggets, one of her favorite foods. But, the daily strolls keep her in fine form.
Besides daily brushing, her mother gives her a bubble bath every two weeks so that her locks remain luxurious. And, finally, like every lady, she loves to “spa” it every six or seven weeks. Those visits to her groomer ensure that her nails are clipped, and she gets a new “do” and a blow dry.
Miss Gigi sends her love and licks to all of you and your pets! She had a rough start and understands pain and suffering, so now she asks that you take very good care of your animal friends, and, support animal relief efforts.
Now, it’s time for a treat!
