Some people believe in former lives and I have to tell you that I was the love of Chubby Checker's life way back in the 60's. I've changed a lot in the doggie lives I've had since then but the Twister name just hung on. I think it's the catchy tune that keeps bouncing around my head. That crazy tune hasn't ruined my loving, special Lhasa spirit though. 

You know it's a relief to just be me these days and not affiliated with a famous person. I don't have to be all spiffied up all the time. I can just play happily with my toys and when I toss them in the air it's just for fun, not to impress anyone in an audience. I can follow my human around instead of having a bunch of screaming fans following us around. Chubby liked that attention but I'm just a gentle old soul who prefers to be easy going, cuddle with my special someone, receive tummy rubs.  Mmmmm, I do like those tummy rubs. 

I'll bark at strangers but then I'll immediately just stand back and wait to see who they are and what they're up to. See, I'm not aggressive at all but I want to warn my family that a stranger just showed up. 

I can be an only dog or share you with another dog. Like I said, I'm just an easy going old soul. I guarantee you I will be totally devoted and light up your life. Well now, there's a song I could learn and maybe get that silly Do the Twist song out of my head.  Let's see..........hummmm,  "You light up my life, You give me hope to carry on.... 

One last thing - if you sing off key, it's OK because loving me is more important than anything else. Will you light up my life?

PLEASE DON'T CONFUSE ME WITH...... 

You know when I was named Bob Marley, I said to myself "Oh, please no, because I'll be mistaken for that dog in the movie, Marley and Me."  But I got named that anyway so now I have to convince my new forever human that I'm not as rambunctious and full of the dickens as that big old Marley dog. I do look on life as being about just having fun, fun, fun. HOWEVER, in order for life to be that way, for a dog at least, I must have a human or two who understands how to love and care for a dog. Before I came into foster care I was full of fleas and matted hair and that's NOT how to care for a dog. But I turned a negative into a positive and showed that groomer that I knew how to behave like a gentleman. I was so proud of myself as I listened to those humans compliment me. While I was eavesdropping one other time, I heard my foster Mom say I was the sweetest Lhasa she's ever met! Hmmmm, I think perhaps being just a wee bit shy at first helps me to be quite endearing not to mention just behaving well. 

I get along with my doggie roommates nicely so if you had another dog it would be fine. I LOVE riding in the car but please be sure I'm safe while in the vehicle with either a crate or seatbelt harness. I don't want to go flying around the vehicle if you stop suddenly. I'm not a picky eater and if you happen to drop food in the floor I'll play like Hoover and clean it up for you. How good is that deal? 

So unlike the Marley in the movie, I could be the best thing that has happened to you in a very long time and you could be the best thing that's EVER happened to me. 

Thank you for giving me a second chance at life.
