My oldest daughter graduated from UC last year and she’s teleworking from home. She brought her dog with her and the little guy just won me over. Finn is a two year old nine pound ShihPoo which is a cross between a Shih Tzu and a Poodle. He’s so calm, so chill, and my daughter trained him well. He’s smart, doesn’t shed, and he’s hypoallergenic which makes the lovely Mrs. FiK happy.
Soon my daughter and Finn will move to an apartment nearer to her work and my younger middle school age daughter said she will miss Finn. So, two weeks ago, we did some research and brought home a three pound ten week old ShihPoo. He’s awesome. Apparently getting a ShihPoo is like opening a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get.
Lenny, the younger ShihPoo, is the opposite of Finn. Lenny is named for the comedian Lenny Bruce and he’s four pounds of urine and acetic acid. Lenny has already kicked Finn’s ass twice and now that Lenny has established his “alpha” credentials the two get along well.
My younger daughter and Lenny are already good friends. This is going to be fun. To all of you dog owners, please know I totally understand you now.
Our Saint Bernard is lazy and clingy as hell, and spends most of his time lounging on the couch.
