Pets

My dog, Mojo. As about as socially adept as me. Pees like a lady and barks at butterflies. He is a mix of undetermined origin. He's supposed to be a Golden but there may be Hound or Pitbull in him. He's been called a meat rocket or an eggroll with legs by some, but he's actually very lovely with bad manners.



L's dog Merlin. Very paranoid. Also barks at arbitrary things, and gets scared easily. Hanna Barbera got it right when they portrayed Scooby-Doo as a wimp. Danes are skittish but very cuddly. They like close spaces, but Merlin hates small wheels and snowmen.



The funny thing is that I don't consider myself a dog person. I always had barn cats as a kid and favored them over dogs but I do miss the morons when I'm not around them. They are good company when I am home alone, and warm too. We all sleep in the bed together, one big dysfunctional family.

Cute puppies! I love dogs, but cats are the absolute best! Too bad my wife and one child are allergic.
