Niele, which means "inquisitive" in Hawaiian, is a blue-eyed 45 pound 2-year old Catahoula and Border Collie mix. As most
dogs tend to be, Niele is terrified of firecrackers, especially on new year's
eve, when residents of the Big Island in Hawaii
Attempting to escape from the din of new year's eve, Niele scampered around her master's house like a chicken without a head trying her best to fit into the smallest spaces she could find.
After several unsuccessful tries, Niele decided that her master's lap was her safest haven.
After several unsuccessful tries, Niele decided that her master's lap was her safest haven.
But not for long.
As midnight neared, the noise from the firecrackers became even louder.
Extremely agitated, Niele tried to
climb from her master's lap to the top of her master's head.
Alas for poor Niele, her master decided that although he
loves her dearly and while it was okay for
her to be a huge lapdog, it was just not
possible for a dog to be a hat -- not even for new year's eve.
