Malibu did this, but it was a squirrel and that one didn’t make it. Just the tail was hanging out of her mouth, like the feet in this video. 🤣

Baby pictures. That’s her chocolate sister, Bella.

My comment on this post:
The greatest always choose us, not the other way around. My Malibu chose me one afternoon, showed up on my front porch staring at me as I sat watching tv. She was a leftover from a litter next door and wouldn’t sell because she had a broken foot when her siblings were being sold and adopted out, but there she was claiming me as her very own. I wasn’t looking. She passed over the same bridge way too young after getting urethral cancer at about 8 years old a couple years ago, on the eve of my birthday. I truly feel your sadness and still mourn losing her to this day. I can’t imagine trying to replace her or finding a successor, but one of these days one will choose me again, maybe her spirit will come back in another vessel. I am truly sorry for your loss. 💔

“Malibu’s Song”
Let me tell you a story
About an old friend of mine
She wandered off to my front porch for us to find
Just a fuzzy black pup
She was feeling alone and needed a friend
We brought her back home, but she kept coming back, so
Told her we were taking her home
Run, Malibu, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Malibu, run
Be just as free as you are wild
We moved her into our home
And she followed this kid around to work and play
Yeah, she kept us safe from harm
And she loved to chase squirrels
And playing out in the grass
She'd take off like a bullet
Man, you should have seen her go
Run, Malibu, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Malibu, run
Be just as free as you are wild
It was raining on my birthday
The day that Malibu died
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
So I laid down by her side
She put her head on my hand
Like she'd done so many times
I told her she was a good dog
Then I told her goodbye
Run, Malibu, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Malibu, run
Be just as free as you are wild
I had a revelation
As I dug that hole
I can tell you right now
That a dog has a soul
And I thought to myself
As we buried her by the shop
I never knew me a better dog
And I guess I never will
Run, Malibu, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Malibu, run
Be just as free as you are wild
Oh, run, Malibu, run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Malibu, run
Be just as free as you are wild

You should still be here watching over my while I fix my old truck. God I miss you.

(Altered lyrics from Chris Stapleton’s “Maggie’s Song)
