My four legged friend

Her tongue often sticks out XD
 Hi! Today I will be talking about my little grumpy dog! Her name is Amaranta, and she is the only pet I have had in my whole life. We got her when I was 8 or 9 years old.
So, Amaranta is a Yorkshire Terrier, and she is 13 years old. My big sister named her like that because of a character of the novel "Cien años de soledad" by Gabriel García Márquez, and I've always thought that it's a bit long for a dog, but regardless, I find it to be a really cool name!
She's always been kinda bad-tempered, specially with strangers. For example, if someone gets remotely close to us while taking a walk, she instantly gets super mad and starts to bark at them. And when she was younger, she often growled at us for no reason at all lol But I've noticed that as she grew old, she has changed, and she's not as cranky as she was a few years ago.
This year, Amaranta has been through a rough time, firstly because she's going a little blind, and also she have lost the majority of her teeth :( But the worst part is that she got really sick- she had an infection in the uterus and had to have an emergency surgery. And because of her age, the surgery was risky, but luckily everything went good and she healed perfectly! 
Lastly, I wanted to share that, for some unknown reason, in my home we have kinda like an inside joke that Amaranta is like an old, high-class respected lady and we, peasants, are honored by her presence XD But jokes aside, she's indeed very loved, and we're very lucky that she's a part of our family 💗. 
That's all, I hope you liked my post! :)
